Luckily, PAPER is here to help you out: each week, we round up 10 of our favorite new songs from artists — emerging and established — to soundtrack your life. From the surreal to the sublime, these songs cover every corner of the music world. The only criteria: they all have to absolutely rip.

Charli xcx and Billie Eilish - “Guess featuring Billie Eilish”
Billie hops on a remix of this highlight from Charli’s deluxe Brat reissue, adding salacious flair to a song that was already plenty salacious. Brat summer isn’t over yet!
A$AP Rocky and Jessica Pratt - “HIGHJACK”
A$AP Rocky loves the indie girls – see his collabs with Florence Welch, Jessie Ware, Lykke Li and more – but this might be his most inspired collaboration yet, getting the brilliant California folk singer Jessica Pratt to add warmth and texture to his latest experiment.
MJ Lenderman - “Joker Lips”
You have to be some kind of genius to rhyme “Kahlua shooter” with “DUI scooter,” and that’s a fact!
Jamie xx and The Avalanches - “All You Children”
“All You Children” feels like a continuation of “Wherever You Go,” Jamie xx and The Avalanches’ collaboration from We Will Always Love You, an enthusiastic, empowering rager.
Two Shell and Sugababes - “Round”
British icons Sugababes re-record vocals from their hit “Round and Round” for this typically zany Two Shell edit.
George Daniel - “Screen Cleaner”
While his fiancee tumbled down a mountain of bras with Billie Eilish, The 1975’s George Daniel was prepping this puckish electro-house track, featuring chopped up vocals from Tove Lo.
Magdalena Bay - “Tunnel Vision”
Herky-jerky and kind of nauseating (in an exciting way,) “Tunnel Vision” skates between lullaby sweetness and ‘70s-y funk and freakout psych with disorienting speed.
Coco & Clair Clair - “Kate Spade”
Harkening back to 2010s pop-R&B with its spaceship-interior sound, “Kate Spade” is classic C&CC, replete with deadpan humor and mild aggression.
Caribou - “Volume”
Dan Snaith puts his own spin on MARRS’s 1987 classic “Pump Up The Volume” with this minimalist gem that slyly builds into a thumper.
Suki Waterhouse - “Blackout Drunk”
A vintage-toned indie-pop earworm from Suki Waterhouse, who seems to have innumerable hooks up her sleeve.
