I associate Drugdealer, the musical project of Michael Collins, with a smooth yet vaguely sleazy form of 1970s singer-songwriter pop. Yet on “The News,” a new song paired with this year’s Weyes Blood collab “Real Thing” on a forthcoming 7″, Drugdealer dips into more of a ’60s vibe, channeling Beatles-era energy and craftsmanship. Collins worked…

Feeling blue? Maybe you’d prefer Cerulean. The latest album from esteemed DJ/producer and hyperpop pioneer Danny L Harle is coming in February. Although 2021’s Harlecore was sort of his first album, Harle says of Cerulean, “This is my debut album. It really is the big one.” He says he sought out “the best melodies sung…

At the end of this week, Oregon-based singer-songwriters Haley Heynderickx and Max García Conover will release their second collaborative album, What Of Our Nature. The pair shared writing duties for the project, trading off songs from opposite corners of the country (Conover was based in Maine at the time) while taking inspiration from Woody Guthrie…

Miley Cyrus has had a prolific year. In May, she released the visual album Something Beautiful. In September, she dropped a deluxe edition of that project that tacked on two great new songs with Fleetwood Mac members and David Byrne. Now comes a new single from the Avatar: Fire And Ash soundtrack. Produced by Cyrus,…

Blondshell started rolling out If You Asked For A Picture way back in January, and the album dropped in May. Now, she’s taking the album campaign nearly wall-to-wall with an expanded edition called Another Picture. Out today, the new release has one new song, one live track recorded in a Vevo session, two reworks featuring…

Momma’s Album Of The Week-worthy Welcome To My Blue Sky is back today in expanded form. The requisite deluxe edition of the Brooklyn band’s LP includes four new songs. There are a pair of fuzzed-out rockers, “Cross Your Heart” and “Not Sacred,” as well as two acoustic numbers, “Sunrise” and “Seattle,” that show of Elliott…

On T.I.’s 2020 song “We Did It Big,” he honored his late friend Terrance Beasley, aka Cap, who’d died in prison a year earlier. One way T.I. chose to pay tribute on the song — an emotional ballad featuring John Legend — was to remember the time Cap urinated on Aubrey Graham: “While I’m fightin’…

Usually Konradsen songs feature one impossibly gorgeous voice: that of Jenny Marie Sabel, who gently coos and murmurs her way through the Norwegian band’s music as if offering a comforting hand. Their new one has two such voices. “Nick Of Time,” a new one-off Konradsen single today, is a collaboration with Chicago’s Gia Margaret, who…

On April Fool’s Day, Skrillex surprise-released his album Fuck U Skrillex You Think Ur Andy Warhol But Ur Not!! <3, which recently earned him Grammy nominations for Best Dance/Electronic Album and Best Dance/Electronic Recording (for “Voltage”). He dropped a new single called “Fuze” with ISOxo last month, and today he’s got another new one. Enticingly,…

Robyn has been sending us warning shots suggesting the follow-up to 2018’s Honey is imminent, and now she’s given us what seems to be that new album’s lead single. We don’t know anything yet about the Swedish alt-pop pioneer’s new LP, other than the fact that she’s now releasing her music through Young rather than…
