Beautiful spring weather? You know what that means. It’s officially “blast music from your car with the windows rolled down” season, and if you’ve got some wheels to blast music from, May offers plenty of options worth cranking up the volume: indie rock, experimental pop, underground rap, electronic, disco-house, and ambient classical. Get excited for the return of artists like Atmosphere, Jonas Brothers, and Tanlines and debut albums from the likes of Alison Goldfrapp, Jim Jarmusch’s drone-rock side project SQÜRL, and Mandy, Indiana.

Water From Your Eyes- “Barley” (Official Music Video)

Water From Your Eyes, the experimental pop duo of Rachel Brown and Nate Amos, have signed to Matador Records to release the follow-up to their great 2021 breakthrough Structure. Everyone’s Crushed is simultaneously catchy and impossible to pin down, discordant and melodic, eschewing traditional song structures in favor of beautifully controlled chaos. [Peter Helman]

    Alison Goldfrapp is the queen, I’m all in on whatever she’s doing. Alex Lahey rocks my doors off, so yes to that. And Arlo Parks is really good, looking forward to the new one. I’m holding out hope for a someday Arlo Parks x Little Simz collab which I think would be quite epic.
