Maggie Rogers has shared the latest teaser from her upcoming debut album, with her upbeat new single ‘Give A Little’.
Taking inspiration from HAIM (who Rogers supported on their recent ‘Sister Sister Sister’ tour), ‘Give A Little’ was co-written and co-produced alongside famed Adele-collaborator Greg Kurstin, and follows on from May’s ‘Fallingwater‘.
Teasers for a potential new Aphex Twin project have been captured in the wild, marking the producer’s potential return for the first time since 2016’s ‘Cheetah‘ EP.
3D designs of Twin’s logo were spotted in the walkways at Elephant & Castle Underground Station in London, moulded into the wall in the form of a bass speaker.
Bar ‘Cheetah’, Aphex Twin’s last full-length album was back in 2014, where he released ‘Syro‘, 13 years on from ‘Drukqs’; his last UK live appearance was at London’s Field Day in 2016.
Italian DJ and producer Junior Black has joined forces with US singer/songwriter JAYLIEN for their new single, ‘Easy Loving’.
Grown from a chance conversation on Instagram, the track hears Junior Black explore a fresh new sound – full of melodic production with a sprightly backing tone, ‘Easy Loving’ delivers a great soundtrack to post-3am Ibiza sunset clubbing.
Drake has shared his surprise video for ‘Nonstop’, the latest single lifted off his recent album ‘Scorpion’.
The black-and-white clip, which appears as an Apple Music exclusive, sees Drizzy roll around London atop a double-decker bus, interjecting with footage of his surprise headline showing at Wireless Festival earlier in the month. Quavo and French Montana also appear in cameos toward the end too.
Earlier in the week, Miguel was revealed as one of the guest vocalists on RL Grime’s latest single ‘Light Me Up‘; today though, less than a month before he kicks off his Ascension North American Tour, the crooner has now revealed a new solo song, ‘Python’.
Released on YouTube, the track promises even more unreleased songs as the tour progresses – “Playing new music on The Ascension Tour” he says. “This one is called Python!”
Vic Mensa has shared a new solo song, ‘Metaphysical’, a track which throws its influence into his African heritage.
Produced by Papi Beatz and Stefan Ponce, the song hears Mensa discuss the tribulations about communicating his feelings to a crush. “This is a song about desire” he says. “Admiration. Respect. Uncertainty. Surrender. Musically it’s African, tribal. My father is Ghanian so I’ve wanted to take it there for a long time. I got Stefan Ponce who did ‘Down On My Luck’ for me & Papi Beatz and just spoke my truth into song.”
DJ Khaled has reconnected with Justin Bieber, Quavo and Chance The Rapper for ‘No Brainer’, a ‘semi-sequel’ to last year’s ‘I’m The One’.
Expected to be the first single from Khaled’s upcoming studio album ‘Father Of Asahd’, ‘No Brainer’ received its premiere as Zane Lowe’s latest ‘World Record’ on Apple’s Beats 1 radio.
Grab a listen below, alongside the song’s official video:
The Chainsmokers have teamed up with singer Emily Warren for their latest release ‘Side Effects’.
Lifted off the NYC-based duo’s new ‘Sick Boy’ EP (which includes previous singles ‘Somebody’ and ‘You Owe Me’), ‘Side Effects’ could well be one of the biggest crossover cuts from The Chainsmokers repertoire in years – the lads have taken their fair share of criticism of late, but with songs like this, we’re absolutely rooting for more!
Premiered by Annie Mac on BBC Radio 1 whilst still on white label, Ten Ven’s ‘Just About’ has now been given an official release courtesy of famed house imprint Positive.
Sporting huge crossover appeal, ‘Just About’ blends classic and contemporary house tropes with a bassline that confidently projects ‘summer anthem’. This is definitely one of the finest earworms to drop this year.
Grab a listen in full below; a ‘Just About’ remix package is also set to land imminently too.
Cosha has shared the video for her new track ‘Flacko’, the latest cut from her new ‘R.I.P. Bonzai’ mixtape.
Of the new cut, Cosha says, “I love this song, I can’t tell you there’s a profound narrative in the lyrics, it’s more of an energy, a feeling of letting go, being hopeful and getting lost (but in a good way). The video was really for fun, my friend called me on a Saturday explaining he had this lovely camera at his disposal for the night, if I had a song I wanted to film to. I knew I’d happily trek up the mountains and listen to Flacko on repeat. It was all very laid back just like the song. It was perfect.”
‘R.I.P. Bonzai’, which is out now, hears the rebranded former Bonzai hook up with a multitude of collaborators, including Rostam, Danny L Harle, Mura Masa and Grades, to name but a few. Cosha has also recently been in the studio with Nile Rodgers and Chic to work on their upcoming studio album ‘It’s About Time’, set for release in September.
