Today's Top Tune

It’s hard to believe that My Morning Jacket is celebrating the release of their tenth studio album in 2025, 20 years after making their radio debut on Morning Becomes Eclectic in 2005.  Their first full-length collection in three years — titled is — has all the bells and whistles that make My Morning Jacket an epic band whether you see them live, or simply listen to their music on the go. 

Native Texan Danny Lee Blackwell makes music under the moniker Night Beats, and has explored the connective tissue between myriad genres. “Behind The Green Door” is a song Blackwell initially recorded as a lone star instrumental and you can hear it in the pacing and rhythm.  The lyrics, which came as the cherry on top at the very end of the process, are drawn from unwavering love and transcendence.

Rising Spanish star Judeline racked up co-signs from fellow artists (and fans) like Rosalia and Bad Bunny early on in her career, and she just made her US debut at Coachella to rave reviews. 

Tulsa-based Broncho’s fifth studio album, Natural Pleasure, is one for your headphones. Let its dreamscape sounds enrapture you. Start with this free download of “Think I Pass,” a trippy adventure into gauzy textures and shimmering sonics. 

“Renacer” or “Rebirth” is exactly that for the solo artist Bardo, formerly the frontman for Chicano Batman. Born from a voice memo during a jam session when Combo Chimbita visited Bardo’s home studio, “Renacer” forecasts a polychromatic sonic palette and more stellar collaborations with the NYC-by-way-of-Colombia band. 

DJ, producer, and singer-songwriter duo Eli & Fur share reimagined cuts from their 2024 recording Dreamscapes. You’ll hear creative remixes from artists like the German brother duo Monkey Safari on this bubbling version of “Oceanside.” 

Canadian quintet Foxwarren — featuring the talented storyteller Andy Shauf —  take a sonic stretch on “Listen2Me.”  The song is a crackling cut from their highly anticipated forthcoming sophomore album 2,  due on May 30 via Anti-. 

French DJ and producer Myd channels club energy into his new work. Myd’s experimental nature led him to lock himself in his studio for a week without access to the outside. This also meant no phone or social media while he live streamed his process (without breaks); fans watched him work, eat, and sleep. That’s how “Song For You”  found its pounding and uplifting house beat. From there the track was kissed by samples, a funk filtered bass line, and creamy vocals by Myd. 

Mississippi family band Annie & The Caldwells are anchored by their matriarch. Annie is not only the central figure of her own band, she’s also a member of the Staples Jr. Singers and owner of Caldwell Fashions — providing daywear and church outfits since the 1980s. Annie & The Caldwells’ debut album, Can’t Lose My (Soul), is forty years in the making and imparts the nourishing themes of spirituality, struggle, and redemption.. Check out their powerful, disco-tinged gospel on “I Made It.” 

Iconic outfit Tortoise have influenced a kaleidoscopic range of artists throughout their forty year career. Arguably, their legacy outweighs their output — they’ve released only seven albums since 1990. Needless to say, we are very happy to share their first new music in almost ten years  — the melodic and crunchy “Oganesson” forecasts more good things to come.
