Adult DVD’s self titled new album
Guitars first and then it mutates - acid-house, breakbeats, techno. Twelve tracks of DFA-indebted dance-punk populated by absurdist characters: a right-wing hermit, a guy with FOMO from his own funeral, a supermarket cowboy.
Ray Laurél’s new single ‘Didn't She Love You’
It’s almost as if Prince is alive and well - that sublime falsetto wrapped around hyper-clean funk and something devotional.
Queens Of The Stone Age’s new single ‘Where The Goth Girls At?’
Nostalgic and saucy - strings, horns, Homme reminiscing about Palm Desert teenagers in JCPenney giving goth makeovers to the old ladies.
Tinashe’s new album ‘Popstar’
Hyperpop, deep house, acid-house, west coast bounce, funk-laced guitars - deliberately dense and expertly produced. No features, no pastiche.
Perfume Genius’s new single ‘Natural High’
Six minutes that open as eerie ghost-folk and slowly dissolve into dank club music - written for The Lesson, a dance collaboration with Kate Wallich inspired by ‘The Piano Teacher’.
