18 tracks.

Peaches

Pickles

Peaches at her most gleefully filthy: Pickles rides a stark, rubbery electro beat while she raps about desire with a grin you can hear in every line.

Gin Wigmore

Written In The Water

Gin Wigmore snarls through a short, stomping blues-rock number from her 2015 album Blood to Bone, her raspy voice squaring up to fate, and splits its video into a two-part outlaw story.

Gin Wigmore, Suffa, Logic

Willing To Die

Gin Wigmore's raw-throated hook meets verses from American rapper Logic and Hilltop Hoods' Suffa on a heavy, defiant anthem built over a sampled field recording.

Gin Wigmore

New Rush

Gin Wigmore's 2015 comeback single, co-written with Charlie Andrew, hits like a jolt of adrenaline: pounding drums and a chant-along chorus pushing her husky voice towards a fresh start after a stifling relationship.

Gin Wigmore

Man Like That

A stomping blues-soul strut in which Gin Wigmore's raspy, fearless voice lays out exactly the kind of man she wants, produced by Butch Walker for Gravel & Wine and later sung in a Heineken James Bond ad.

Gin Wigmore

Kill Of The Night

Gin Wigmore's smoky rasp prowls over stomping drums and a swaggering, bluesy strut, a midnight hunt sung by someone who fully intends to win.

Gin Wigmore

Hey Ho

A stomping, hand-clapping slice of retro soul-pop from Gin Wigmore's debut, her gravel-and-honey voice making a breezy chant sound like a dare.

Gin Wigmore

Black Sheep

Stomping drums, chanted backing vocals and a shout-along hook frame Gin Wigmore's gravel-edged voice in a proud anthem for everyone who never fit the flock.

Gabriella Cilmi

Left With Someone Else

A smoky, retro-soul kiss-off from Gabriella Cilmi's independent third album: an old flame walks out with somebody new, and a sparse arrangement leaves room for a vocal that is pure venom wrapped in velvet.

Drake, The Throne

Pop Style

Drake trades bars with Kanye West, and two lines with Jay-Z, over a murky, minimal trap-inflected beat: a cool, understated flex from the Views era that exists in three different versions.

Branko, SKIP&DIE, Fellow

Made of Gold

Branko's global club sound in miniature: an Amsterdam meeting with SKIP&DIE and Fellow on his debut album ATLAS, a gleaming, bass-heavy groove built for a crowd.

Arctic Monkeys

R U Mine?

Arctic Monkeys turn a jealous late-night text into a riff-heavy stomp, with Alex Turner's rapid-fire wordplay riding a fuzzed-out, swaggering guitar line.

Anna Lunoe

Radioactive

Anna Lunoe's Radioactive, her 2016 debut on OWSLA, is a strobe-lit 'hyperhouse' banger sung in her own voice, all clipped vocal hooks, rave stabs and a low end built to rattle a festival tent.

Pigeon John

The Bomb

The Los Angeles rapper Pigeon John opens his 2010 album Dragon Slayer with The Bomb, a bright, bouncing single co-produced with General Elektriks' Hervé Salters from sampled live instrumentation rather than old records.

Fischerspooner

Emerge

'Emerge' is Fischerspooner's debut single and one of the defining records of electroclash: a pounding, theatrical electro-pop anthem from a New York duo that began as a performance art piece about entertainment.

Róisín Murphy

Primitive

The slow, string-laced turn on Róisín Murphy's 2007 electro-disco album Overpowered, co-written with Ill Factor and arranged by Philadelphia soul veteran Larry Gold, heard here in a live performance from the album's era.

Cardi B

WAP (feat. Megan Thee Stallion)

'WAP' is a bold and provocative hip-hop track by Cardi B featuring Megan Thee Stallion: a minimal beat, a looped Baltimore club chant and two rappers trading explicit, joyfully unapologetic verses about desire.
