Take a deep breath of the fresh optimistic air, only slightly cool, and teasing of city bike rides and days spent sunning in the park as you scope out this week’s digest, with its completely fresh selection of new artists, plus some impressive and controversial releases from well known faces. As in, is this Daft Punk/Jay Z song a real thing? And why isn’t it better? On the flipside this new track from Mykki Blanco is sick, and youthful ( 😉 ). However, the star of this playlist is Holiday Sidewinder. A newcomer with an original moniker, her track is like a poppy shoutout to Metronomy’s past, or an iteration of what shimmers through my brain as I sit on a beach with sunglasses that illicit a vintage filter.
Oh Also, it’s no news that I’m a big fan of Marlene, and this track with Ji Nilsson doesn’t disappoint. Someone transport me to the nordic countries please, it’s clearly a happening right now.
XOXO
