Hear SG Lewis and Clairo’s groovy summer burner ‘Better’

SG Lewis has enlisted newcomer Clairo for his groovy new single ‘Better’.

Widely expected to bridge the gap between Lewis’ ‘Dusk’ and ‘Dark’ EPs (the latter forming the second part of his ‘Dusk, Dark, Dawn’ debut album), ‘Better’ is as sultry a head-nodder as we’ve come to expect from the shining producer over the past couple of years.

Definitely one for the playlists, so cop it below:

Hear My Nu Leng’s frantic remix of Rudimental & Major Lazer’s ‘Let Me Live’

It’s been more than a minute since My Nu Leng hooked up with Rudimental, but it seems their latest result has been totally worth the wait.

Also reuniting with D Double E, My Nu Leng’s Tommy and Jammo throw some mighty deep-bass rumbles across Rudi’s recent Major Lazer and Anne-Marie-collab ‘Let Me Live’. This is a remix up there with some of My Nu Leng’s best work, and sets up well for both Rudimental’s forthcoming record ‘Toast To Our Differences’, plus My Nu Leng’s own follow-up to last year’s ‘Portal’ EP.

After over 200 million streams across a multitude of major hits (including ‘All Cried Out’ and ‘I Loved You’), Blonde have returned, back to their best with their superb new single ‘Me, Myself & I’.

Featuring addictive vocals from Bryn Christopher (Sigala’s ‘Sweet Lovin’), both the song and accompanying video reflect the positive themes of individuality and self-respect (the clip also featuring a wealth of social personalities including Kitty Underhill and DJ Prince JayJay).

Catch ‘Me, Myself & I’ below; video follows underneath:

It’s yet to be confirmed whether ‘SoulMate’ will form the start of another new studio project, but regardless, it’s up there with some of his best work.
