Here are our daily picks for you featuring Hannah Cohen, Julien Baker, Riot Ten and more!
1. “Earthstar” – Hannah Cohen
Dreamy, nostalgic and soul-stirring, singer-songwriter Hannah Cohen has released her latest single “Earthstar.” The track exemplifies her signature folk-pop style with shimmering synths, gentle chord progressions and introspective lyricism. “For me ‘Earthstar’ is about the complexity of connection, the risk and vulnerability of love,” Cohen shares. “The song grapples with the idea that ultimately, we will never completely know someone.” Look out for “Earthstar” on Cohen’s fourth full length album, Earthstar Mountain, set for release March 28, 2025.
2. “2 Da Floor (feat. J. Cruze)” – Riot Ten, Deorro
Up next is the boom-dropping, electronic Latin collaboration of the year: “2 Da Floor (feat. J. Cruze)” by Riot Ten and Deorro. Lively piano motifs, groovy saxophone riffs and intense merengue rhythms are intertwined with contemporary bass elements to create an energetic cultural soundscape. The song itself is infused with both artists’ skills, such as Riot Ten’s bass drops and Deorro’s progressive house finesse. Give a listen today!
3. “Used to It” – CLOVER
“Used to It” is an infectious, thrilling love song by singer-songwriter CLOVER. The pop-soul song recounts the New Jersey-born artist’s personal experience of falling in love with her current partner during the global pandemic. “‘Used to It’ encapsulates that nomadic chapter — the magic, the spontaneity, and the bittersweet feeling that it all seemed too good to be true,” CLOVER says. “It’s a celebration of radical freedom, love, and living on the road.”
4. “1984” – Kurious
New York City-native and hip-hop artist Kurious unveils a new rap hit, “1984.” The track appears on Majician, an album produced with longtime friend and collaborator MF DOOM before his passing. Instrumentally, “1984” weaves together funky rhythms, crisp drum beats and smooth keyboard riffs. It showcases the versatility of Kurious’s signature flow while paying homage to the golden era of hip-hop.
5. “Sylvia” – Julien Baker, TORRES
Closing out this selection is “Sylvia,” an intimate, nostalgia-inducing country track by Julien Baker and TORRES. Amidst yearnful lyrics and soft instrumentation, the song is inspired by TORRES officially adopting her foster dog, Sylvia. TORRES shares, “I remember thinking that I’d love to write a song like that, a song that people could feel in their chest within five seconds of turning on the radio, because anyone who has ever had the honor of sharing a home with a beloved pet knows that a pet is family—they’re the best friends you could ever have.”
And with that, I urge you to check out these five new tracks today! Keep your eyes out for any upcoming releases.
