New music this week on the playlist and the radio: "Mind Loaded" from Blood Orange featuring Lorde and Caroline Polachek is midtempo, melodic tune that builds into a groove -- atmospheric and melodic. "Man on a Mission" from The Black Keys is an uptempo stomp from their upcoming album NO RAIN, NO FLOWERS. We hope you like.

We've got seven new songs for you this week on the radio and the playlist. It is the strongest week in recent memory. "Shapeshifter" is a standout from Lorde's new album, VIRGIN. Sam Fender is back with "Rein Me In", "Cross Your Mind" is from Shelly, a band with WBRU favorite Clairo and Claud. Ethel Cain's followup to "Nettles" is "F**k My Eyes", which we can play since we are not on FM and we want to play because it is great. Also check out "Bag of Bones" from Lord Huron, "davina mccall" from Wet Leg and the return of the excellent The Last Dinner Party -- their new single is "This is the Killer Speaking". Links are in the comments. We hope you enjoy.
