Listen to Mura Masa’s Smooth Production on Cosha’s Sultry Debut Album, “Mt. Pleasant”
Irish singer-songwriter Cosha has recruited one of the electronic music scene’s most polished producers to breathe life into her debut album. The stunning Mt. Pleasant LP, which is named after the area of Dublin where Cosha was raised, features four tracks with production by Grammy-nominated producer Mura Masa. His signature playful sound pervades half of the sultry record, out now by way of Cosha’s own Ashtown Lane imprint. The album’s seductive opener, “Berlin Air,” is akin to strawberries dipped in melted dark chocolate. The fourth track, a come-hither tune called “Lapdance from Asia,” follows suit with similar syncopated percussion and a languid topline. Mt. Pleasant single “Tighter” arrives next, offering a wooz...

Listen to Tchami’s Dazzling, 19-Track “Year Zero” Remix Album
Tchami has unveiled 19—yes, 19—brilliant reworks of music from his debut album, Year Zero. There’s no doubt that longtime fans of the French future house pioneer will rock out to the expansive album, which explores house music and its many sub-genres with fluid precision.

Galantis and Bali Bandits join forces for a saccharine, disco-inspired rendition of “Buenos Aires,” a track that ANGELZ takes into rave territory with a four-to-the-floor, 150 BPM hyper-house rework. Dirtybird cofounder Justin Martin offers up a foot-tapping deep house edit of &...

Marshmello’s New Album is Bangers Galore—Listen to “Shockwave” Now
After months of teasing, Marshmello has finally released Shockwave, a 12-track masterstroke channeling the producer’s long-lost electronic roots. The record kicks off with the spellbinding “Fairytale,” a brooding beat that eventually culminates in a thick melodic trap drop with booming hip-hop 808s. The tongue-in-cheek “Supernovacane” follows, in which the polarizing producer tips his helmet to his haters with a flippant vocal intro. “Marshmello is the most overrated electronic music artist by the way, ever to exist, of all-time,” whines an uncredited blowhard. “It’s so mediocre. To have it become so popular makes no sense.” One of the album’s most anticipated cuts, “Jiggle It,” delivers thank...
