St. Vincent

St. Vincent is among our most virtuosic artists, continually topping herself in her music and the attached artistic extrapolations. Now, the guitarist, and singer-songwriter has forged a new path to reinvention: Todos Nacen Gritando, a companion to her earlier 2024 release All Born Screaming. As the titles might suggest, All Born Screaming has been translated and re-recorded entirely in Spanish.

Citing the passion of her fans in Latin and South America (and her own desire to improve her language skills) as inspiration, Annie Clark offers this en-espańol version of the track "Big Time Nothing." Click play for a transported take on a track you may already love.

Aziya - Romani Byrtz

Aziya

Fast and furious, the future’s barreling in. If you’re feeling energized and activated by that fact then here’s your track to ride the wave. Featuring a lip-licking mix of double-time dance beats, hard guitar licks, powerful synths, and ear-catching pew-pews — all topped by soft-like-a-knife vocals — “bambi” is one killer baby deer. Get more attitude-laden music from east London artist Aziya with her new EP, BAMBI (yes the EP is all caps and the track is all lowercase).

eat-girls

eat-girls makes us nervous… and we’re pretty sure that’s the point. “Unison” comes to us via the French trio’s freshly released debut LP Area Silenzio. After a close listen to its queasy synths, menacingly deadpan vocals, and creeping chaos we’re feeling edgy. And edgy feels pretty damn good, tbh.

Raybody - Self Portrait by the artist

… But then again, it’ll also feel good to melt your tension away with this stand-and-sway single from Brooklyn-based “woman and band” Katy Rae (Raybody). Serving up stacked layers of distinctively delivered vocals over warm and sticky alt-style production, this track’s got a cool midwestern church basement feel that you can’t quite put your finger on, but you know you want more. Perfect for those who appreciate meandering walks on a crispy fall afternoon and the deployment of juuuust enough vocal fry.

And sometimes you just have to remember you’ll never be as young again as you are in this exact moment, so throw on this impossibly cool and impeccably produced electropop song from Sofie Royer and dance (and dance and dance).
