From hip-hop bops to slower alternative tunes, this week has given us one amazing song after another. Join us as we look back at the best songs that hit the shelves this week, hailing from rock bands Måneskin and Fall Out Boy to rappers A$AP Rocky and Trippie Redd.

This week marked the release of new albums by Måneskin and Trippie Redd, so it’s not a shocker they made it to our list. Trippie Redd teased Mansion Musik by dropping a music video for “Atlantis” ft. Chief Keef, but “Fully Loaded” ft. Future and Lil Baby made a bigger impression on us.

Måneskin has given us 17 songs on their third studio album Rush! and they all deserve a spot on our list, but we’re going with “Bla Bla” since we got to hear four singles before the album hit the shelves, including “Gossip” ft. Tom Morello from last week.

This week has been amazing for alternative releases overall, with new songs from The National and Boygenius hitting the shelves. Fall Out Boy also made an epic comeback this week and teased their new album So Much (for) Stardust with lead single “Love from the Other Side”.

There are a few more surprises on our list, so check it out and get ready to listen to some amazing new songs on repeat!

The National – “Tropic Morning News”

Fall Out Boy – “Love From The Other Side”

A$AP Rocky – “Same Problems?”

Skrillex with Bobby Raps – Leave Me Like This

boygenius – “$20”

Trippie Redd – “Fully Loaded Feat. Future & Lil Baby”

Kali Uchis – “I Wish You Roses”

The Kid LAROI – “I Can’t Go Back To The Way It Was”

Kim Petras – “brrr”

Måneskin – “Bla Bla”

After having a quiet 2018, EDM superstar Skrillex has been keeping himself quite busy this year. He released an EP with his project Dog Blood earlier this year and has now decided to surprise his fans with unannounced solo EP Show Tracks.

The EP consists out of tracks “Fuji Opener” featuring Alvin Risk and “Mumbai Power” which features Beam. Although Skrillex played both of these tracks during his recent live sets, this is the first time we get to hear their studio versions.

Show Tracks was released on all major streaming platform including YouTube and Spotify. Hear the EP below.

Besides the two previously mentioned EPs, Skrillex worked on several other projects in 2019. His first release of the year was a remix of Kelsey Lu’s hit song “Due West,” which was followed by “Face My Fears,” collaboration with Japanese-American singer-songwriter Hikaru Utada. He was also featured on tracks from other artists including a feature on TroyBoi’s “Warlordz” and team-up with Ed Sheeran on his No.6 Collaborations Project track “Way To Break My Heart.”

After debuting a new single and making a rare live appearance a few months ago, Skrillex and Boys Noiz promised they will release more new music as Dog Blood soon. Now they made good on the promise, as the duo released an electrifying and exciting new extended play Turn Off the Lights.

The EP contains four songs that incorporate a number of different styles including acid house, psychedelic, a hint of an industrial, and of course, lots of heavy basses. The pair also brought in some guests for the release including Josh Pan, X&G, and Otira.

Dog Blood made the Turn Off the Lights available on streaming services like Spotify and YouTube. Hear it below.

Skrillex and Boys Noiz first teamed up under the name Dog Blood in 2012, when they released Middle Finger EP. A year later, they presented Middle Finger Pt. 2 while also playing several shows together including an appearance at the legendary Glastonbury festival. Following a Middle Finger Pt. 3 EP in 2014, the duo went on a semi-hiatus which included occasional one-time shows.

After pausing activities for almost two years, the duo got back to the stage at BUKU Music + Art Project in New Orleans and followed that up with several more appearances including at Ultra Music Festival.

Skrillex’s debut album dropped in 2014, and his fans have been patiently waiting for a follow-up ever since. It finally seems like something amazing is on the horizon since the EDM star recently hinted he’s working on new music.

There’s been a lot of rumors circling around about his next album, and Skrillex addressed them in a series of tweets. He announced he’s working on something exciting, but not necessarily his sophomore record.

“Been taking long time off working on my friends albums but more importantly myself. Been lots of rumors of an “album”. I don’t know what it is or what to call it… But I’m about to start putting in this new work, going full speed ahead, no turning back,” wrote Skrillex on Twitter.

Skrillex’s debut album Recess came out in 2014, and he’s been keeping busy ever since. Despite the fact he hasn’t release a new record, the popular DJ has been working with other artist and dropping remixes of several hit songs, including “Sicko Mode” by Travis Scott.

This year’s Veld Music Festival prepared a special treat for fans of hip-hop and house music. They are bringing some of the biggest names in the industry to the stage this summer, and Cardi B and Kygo will be in charge of headlining this unforgettable party.

This year’s edition of Veld Music Festival will take place at Downsview Park in Toronto during two day-weekend in early August. As always, its lineup features big names on the modern rap and dance scene, with a heavy emphasis on electronic music.

Cardi B will be the main attraction of the festival, and we can’t help but wonder how she’s even finding the time. In addition to constantly touring and getting ready for her first Las Vegas residency, she’s also plotting her next album in the hope she’ll be able to release it later this year.

Cardi B will be joined by famous DJs Kygo, Skrillex, and Tiesto during Veld Festival, but the lineup for this event also features the likes of Jaden Smith, Alesso, and Kodak Black.

2018 has definitely been Travis Scott’s year! He became a proud dad, his album Astroworld debuted at number one and he finally scored his first no. 1 single on Billboard’s list with “Sicko Mode.”

This hit track has been steadily climbing the charts for weeks, but Skrillex gave it the push it needed to reach the top spot. “Sicko Mode” got more exposure thanks to his epic remix, and famous DJ was one of the artists Scott thanked after hearing the good news.

“I don’t know how I’m writing this right now… It’s so many emotions. Just super-thankful to all the fans and supporters. Me and Drake been working to make something so crazy for the kids. It’s dope that one of our illest collaborations just went No. 1. I just want to thank him and the whole OVO fam for everything. And love to Skrillex!” said Scott.

“Sicko Mode” ended up dethroning Ariana Grande’s break-up anthem “Thank U, Next” and she showed Scott some love after hearing of his latest accomplishment. Some of her followers expected her to throw some shade at him, but she said there’s nothing for you to do but celebrate when an artist you’ve been stanning finally gets the recognition they deserved.

Skrillex always finds ways to do something cool with the songs he remixes, and it wasn’t any different with his latest project, Travis Scott’s smashing hit collab with Drake “Sicko Mode.”

Although the EDM superstar didn’t mess around with the basic idea of the song, he did make it sound even more massive than it already did by adding distorted bass and loud drums all over the track while throwing in a dash of extra synths.

While the final result doesn’t sound too much different from the original, it still carries Skrillex’s recognizable staple, and it has all the traits of a real club hit.

Hear Skrillex’s remix of “Sicko Mode” below.

Featuring guest appearances by Drake, Swae Lee, and Big Hawk, “Sicko Mode” was released back in August as the second single from Travis Scott’s third studio album Astroworld. The track samples The Notorious B.I.G.’s “Gimme the Loot,” and was produced by Rogét Chahayed and Hit-Boy among others. It was well received by the critics, who called the song “album highlight,” and “mini-suite of bangers.”

“Sicko Mode” also enjoyed considerable commercial success, peaking at No.2 at Billboard 100 while reaching top 10 in five other countries. It was certified two times platinum in both Canada and the United States.

Hear Skrillex’s remix of “Sicko Mode” below.

Featuring guest appearances by Drake, Swae Lee, and Big Hawk, “Sicko Mode” was released back in August as the second single from Travis Scott’s third studio album Astroworld. The track samples The Notorious B.I.G.’s “Gimme the Loot,” and was produced by Rogét Chahayed and Hit-Boy among others. It was well received by the critics, who called the song “album highlight,” and “mini-suite of bangers.”

“Sicko Mode” also enjoyed considerable commercial success, peaking at No.2 at Billboard 100 while reaching top 10 in five other countries. It was certified two times platinum in both Canada and the United States.
