piri & tommy - "yoyo"

piri & tommy return with this appealing, soft-toned lounge track which would sound great at 10 AM or 4 AM alike.

Babymorocco and Frost Children - "Bikinis and Trackies"

The first single from Babymorocco’s forthcoming debut album is typically sleazy, sexy and mega, featuring an assist from his besties the Frost Children.

Major Lazer and M.I.A. - "Where's The Daddy?"

This outtake from the first Major Lazer album, released to commemorate its 15th anniversary, is sparky and ridiculously fun, a blast of classic Diplo / MIA mayhem.

George Reid - "Tokyo Honeymoon"

One half of AlunaGeorge flexes his tech-house muscles on this bright, soaring new club heater.

Dua Lipa and Pierre de Maere - "These Walls"

Dua Lipa links up with French singer Pierre de Maere on this internationally-toned update on a highlight from Radical Optimism.

Man/Woman/Chainsaw - "Sports Day"

Prog-folk-rock chaos from the young British band Man/Woman/Chainsaw, who make some deeply uncool sounds seem extremely cool.

Kate Bollinger - "What Can I Give You"

Another gem from Sub Pop’s new Margo Guryan compilation Like Someone I Know, which is the gift that keeps on giving.

Cordae and Joey Bada$$ - "Syrup Sandwiches"

Laid-back, old-school vibes abound in this great new collaboration between Cordae and Joey Bada$.

Pretty Girl - "Rewind"

Australia’s Pretty Girl returns with a song that lives up to her “Emotional Dance Music” slogan – a rich, anthemic house track that’s forlorn but thrilling.

Leo Bhanji - "Book 1"

Short but sweet, Leo Bhanji’s new song is a showcase for gorgeous ambient-folk production and beautiful, aching vocals.
