"Hunter" - Anna Calvi

Is it just us, or does this song belong on the Twin Peaks soundtrack?

“Girls Like You” - Maroon 5 feat Cardi B (St. Vincent Remix)

“She Was A Dancer” - Millie Turner

Who’s learning this dance with us this weekend?

"Stay Away" - Saint Slumber

This song perfectly captures the feeling of knowing someone is bad for you, but not being able to stay away from them.

“Angels” - Evalyn

“Loud” - Silk City feat. Goldlink and Desiigner

Diplo and Mark Ronson's joint group, Silk City, have released their third track together, and it's a ghostly single featuring Goldlink and Desiigner.

K.C. Maloney is Adult Karate, and his debut album is an honest reflection of his most raw emotions, from his struggle to sobriety to his feelings of paranoia, guilt, and self-doubt.

“All That Love Is” - HALFNOISE

Shot on 16mm film in California, each still from this music video feels like it contains a multitude of creative energy.

This track is smooth and dreamy, exuding King Krule-esque vibes.
