Bon Iver Leads The Loop With ‘Hey, Ma’

In the week that he’s playing at Madrid’s Mad Cool festival, Justin Vernon’s band Bon Iver is our favourite song of the week with ‘Hey, Ma’ one of the two brand new tracks anticipating their long awaited new album. Hip-hop’s alt-folk band of choice is suitable followed by two of the biggest hip-hop stars Today: Tyler, The Creator and IDK.

The rather enigmatic funk and soul band SAULT are the highest new entry. Also debuting strong the new tracks by serpentwithfeet feat. Ty Dolla $ign; Mark Ronson feat. Angel Olsen; Thom Yorke; black midi; Joan Dausà con María Rodés Y Santi Balmes; Yuna feat. Little Simz; Jacques Greene feat. Cadence Weapon; The Raconteurs; H.E.R. feat.
