“DAMN! (with Teezo Touchdown)” - Zack Bia, Teezo Touchdown
Released March 15, 2024
Inside of every LA indie cool girl is a douchey club bro (I’m speaking metaphorically okay). If you’ve never had the urge to fistbump with a drink in your hand and your sunnies sliding down your nose, you’re lying!! I don’t care! I love this shit. Sometimes you want to be mysterious and different, and sometimes you want to feel like you’re day-clubbing in Ibiza, with your feet in the pool at Ushuaïa. And yes, I know how pretentious that sounds. We don’t have fun like we used to. Spin this and go have fun, ugh!
“What I Want” - Gregor McMurray
Released February 28, 2024
Alright, the word of the week is ‘cunty.’ This has been on repeat for obvious reasons. Thank God we get to experience another indie sleaze revival (It hits differently when you’re in your twenties). This song is smeared lipstick and smokey eye makeup, and if you’re still doing your 12-3-30, go ahead and strut your stuff to this. We can confirm Gregor McMurray is a real-life person. He just makes the sluttiest AI music of your dreams. If Karen from Spongebob could make music, I would hope it would sound something like this.
“Spring is Coming with a Strawberry in the Mouth” - Caroline Polachek
Released February 14, 2024
Oh, it’s so good! Caroline Polachek’s take on Operating Theatre’s 1986 single is absolutely ethereal. This song has all the 80s synths you could ever dream of, otherworldly vocals, and an expansive amount of space. It’s astounding how forward-thinking this was considering it was written nearly 40 years ago!
“SHOWER SONG” - Tierra Whack
Released January 26, 2024
This shit’s WHACK! It’s a little theatrical, a little off-kilter - and that’s why we love it. “SHOWER SONG” is one of Whack’s most popular tracks off her latest album, WORLD WIDE WHACK, and for good reason. It is undeniably a bop, and absolutely encapsulates her unique style. The music video is also a personal favorite. Remember being a kid watching Sesame Street and getting to play with bath toys? This song is like that but now you’re a grown up about it.
“TU TONTO perriado” - Divino Niño, Inner Wave, J3
Released December 21, 2023
Reggaeton, hyperpop, and newwave walk into a bar…That’s really the only way I can describe this insane amalgamation of genre. In case you were in doubt, rest assured we are living in the future! Though we’re a couple months late to the party, this has been on rotation from the second the soundwaves graced our virgin ears. I want to mosh and shake ass at the same time. Is that even possible?
“Candy” - Mk.gee
Released August 11, 2023
If there are two things that can unite this world, it’s good food and music by Mk.gee. He’s no underground artist by any means, but I expect we’ll be seeing him grow in popularity after this incredible album and upcoming tour. “Candy” is surely a fan favorite off his debut album, Two Star & The Dream Police, and it’s sexy and mischievous in a way that’s unlike any other song I can think of. He’ll be breaking hearts and stealing your girl in a city near you very soon. I’m convinced we’re all in love at this point.
“Main Character” - Deki Alem
Released June 2, 2023
What the fuck is in the water in Sweden?? This twin brother duo, hailing from Gothenburg and composed of Sammy and Johnny Bennett (gotta love those double-letter names), exist on a different plane. “Main Character” is somehow familiar, yet futuristic. It’s dark and light at the same time. And it’s hyperreal but also living in a dream state simultaneously. Go listen and scratch your head.
