Desiigner’s Tiimmy Turner has already seen a short Alicia Keys rework, and now today the rapper has enlisted Kanye West to throw in an extra verse across the blog-heralded joint.
Grab a listen below:
Audio: Dusky – ‘Swansea’ (ft Gary Numan)
Dusky have delivered some absolute gems over the past year, and with their new album Outer literally around the corner (it drops at midnight tonight), the lads have shared one of the project’s most-anticipated joints, Swansea.
Featuring Gary Numan, Swansea is every much the 80s-inspired, synth-led track you could imagine; it’s post-3am vibes at their best, whilst Numan’s alt-mysterious vocals add further elements of diversity for Dusky’s production abilities.
Grab a listen below in full; you can also preorder/stream Outer straight away over on Apple Music too:
Audio: Emeli Sande – ‘Garden’ (ft Jay Electronica & Ainey Zion)
Tbh, we knew we were missing Emeli Sande, but we didn’t know by how much until we laid our ears on Hurts about a month ago.
Since then, the lead single from her forthcoming album Long Live The Angels has only grown and grown on us, and ultimately marked an exciting return for one of the most familiar and poetic artists within the scene, and today Emeli has graced us with the follow-up aligning with Jay Electronica and Ainey Zion on Garden.
Annie Mac just premiered it as her latest Radio 1 ‘Hottest Record’ so you know you’re in good hands with this; essentially if Garden doesn’t whet your appetite for Emeli’s new project, then we’ve probably lost hope on you.

Video: The Weeknd – ‘False Alarm’
The Weeknd has shared the official video for False Alarm, and it’s as intense as they come.
Unveiled as the second single from the Canadian’s forthcoming Starboy LP (out next month), the visual delivers on the substance of a thriller mini-movie, with Abel the key villain as he carries out a pretty hefty bank robbery.
Starboy itself has already seen some meticulous hype – both the title-track and False Alarm were unveiled within days of each other, whilst The Weeknd has already performed both songs in their entirety during his stint on SNL a couple of weeks back. Whilst the latest joint may not be to everyone’s taste, it still gives us a full teaser of what’s to come when the full album lands in a little over six weeks. In the meantime, get stuck into the video below:

Audio: Kastle – ‘Holographic’ (Feat. Sara Z)
Kastle’s been in the game for almost a decade now, and in that time, he’s rarely [if ever] put a foot wrong. The producer has consistently-released some solid music; an even more remarkable feat when you realise he’s no one-trick pony with his sway to defining excellent sonics from the world of UKG to house to electronica (essentially, most elements that fall under the ‘dance’ moniker).
With that, as he gears up for the release of his new album Reflections later this week, Kastle’s dropped another belter, teaming up with Sara Z for the mesmerising [albeit haunting] 2-step groove on Holographic.

Audio: Riff Raff & DJ Afterthought – ‘Back From The Dead’ (ft Skepta)

Video: Glass Animals – ‘Season 2 Episode 3’

Hear Kaytranada’s new remixes for Chance The Rapper and Solange
Kaytranada is undoubtedly one of the businest producers in the world at the moment, and today he’s shared two new remixes just to add to that workload pressure!
First up comes his killer edit of Solange’s dope Cranes In The Sky, a remix that’s just as eargasmic as the original. The second one may be familiar to Kay fans which sees him remix Chance the Rapper and Knox Fortune’s All Night (the Canadian shared this version during his recent 0.001% mixtape).

Depeche Mode announce 2017 European Tour
Depeche Mode have announced their return to the scene, with their new record Spirit, alongside a huge European headline tour in 2017.
Kicking off on 5th May in Stockholm, the Global Spirit Tour will see the group hit most major cities across Europe in a mix of stadiums and arenas. So far the only UK show confirmed will be at the London Stadium on 3rd June.
The news also mounts speculation that the band will take Spirit to next year’s Glastonbury Festival, an event they have surprisingly still not played.
**UPDATE: Depeche Mode have now been confirmed for Lisbon’s NOS Alive Festival and Spain’s BBK Live too, so who knows, maybe a Glasto appearance could well be on the cards!
