new music from ⟢ Troye Sivan, Slayyyter, Remi Wolf, horsegiirL, METTE, Current Joys, Goldie Boutilier, Rochelle Jordan, Dawn Richard… Troye’s ‘She’s the Best’ is one of my favorites this week. a lot of textures and sounds here that i really wasn’t expecting to hear, there’s some electronica, trip hop, and even breakbeat moments. really enjoyed hearing him try all of this, and it’s the album i’m most excited to spend more time with this weekend. Remi Wolf’s album also had some

new music from ⟢ Madonna & Charli xcx, Tame Impala & Fcukers, Tinashe, Jae Stephens, M83, Phoebe Bridgers, 2hollis, Perfume Genius, Rex Orange County… Madonna’s “Danceteria” remix with Charli is one of my favorites so far. i expected them to change up the production a lot more, but they kept so much of what i already loved about the song. we also got Fcukers’ remix of Tame Impala’s “Loser.” love these two artists but i was so confused by this one, the tempo doesn’t really mat

it’s been a few months since the last albums ranked post :m i’ve been taking my time revisiting these albums. so many of these albums hit differently coming back to them now. covid really feels like a fever dream… but we got some good music 😀 a few highlights from the top of my list: Fiona Apple / Fetch the Bolt Cutters there’s nothing else here that sounds even close to this. there are so many different sounds and daring ideas, and i love how unfiltered Fiona is throughout.

new music from ⟢ Miley Cyrus, Tove Lo, Carly Rae Jepsen, beabadoobee, Boy Harsher, Troye Sivan, Beck, ROSÉ, AZ Chike, Kim Petras, Yeat & Drake, Travis Scott… so many albums this week, but that’s always a good problem to have. based on first listens Boy Harsher’s album is probably my favorite so far. this band continues to be underrated, definitely worth your time. the Night side of Carly Rae Jepsen’s double album is another standout for me. it’s such a great, cohesive dance r

been listening to Rebecca Black’s new album and the second “Pistol” came on it immediately reminded me of this playlist. it never occurred to me to make a part two this playlist has over 800 saves now which is so cool to see! there are way too many incredible women across this genre to fit into one post anyway, so here are a few more favorites from some of the artists that helped define the sound to newer artists still pulling from it today. swipe through for a few of my favo

new music from ⟢ Slayyyter, Jhené Aiko, Tinashe, Bloc Party, Bonobo, Hercules & Love Affair, Sophia Stel, Victoria Monét, Shygirl, FKJ… good week for electronic and neo-soul music! really loved the new Hercules & Love Affair record ‘Danseur.’ released in two parts over the last few months, the full project is finally here and it’s such a great listen from start to finish. it’s rooted in queer club culture, house music and the history of the dancefloor, it sounds nostalgic and

part three: the 2010s 💿 finishing off this three part ranking for rnb with the 2010s, a decade where i think it became harder than ever to define. the genre expanded into alternative, electronic, rock, indie, funk, hip hop, and some of the best albums of the decade came from artists pushing against what rnb was supposed to sound like. this was also the decade where the way i discovered music completely changed. streaming made music more accessible than ever and we could dig

i’ve been wanting to make this series for a while. songs that i think are genuinely some of the most beautiful ever made. whether it’s the lyrics or production, there are some songs i’ll probably never get tired of hearing. songs that still sound just as beautiful no matter how many times i’ve listened to them. starting a new series with some of the most beautiful songs ever made, here’s part one. i’ll also be updating the playlist on spotify + apple music 🎧

Miley Cyrus is also back with her new sin

new music from ⟢ JENNIE, Erykah Badu & The Alchemist, Interpol, Haute & Freddy, Ruby Doll, Olivia Rodrigo, Majid Jordan, Alabama Shakes, Boy Harsher, Turnstile… Erykah Badu & The Alchemist finally dropped their collab album. this is such a perfect pairing, Erykah sounds completely at home over The Alchemist’s production and I love that she was also really hands on with the production herself. they spent 18 months working on the album between Dallas and LA, and you can really
