It’s impossible to be across all the new music out each Friday. Luckily, PAPER is here to help you out: each week, we round up 10 of our favorite new songs from artists — emerging and established — to soundtrack your life. From the surreal to the sublime, these songs cover every corner of the music world. The only criteria: they all have to absolutely rip.

Subscribe to our Sound Off Spotify playlist here and check out this week’s tracks, below.

Faye Webster – “After the First Kiss”

Hints of bossa nova on this earthy, gorgeous new Faye Webster song. Are we ready to bestow queer anthem status? Are we ready to say, “She got me calling’ her ‘wife’/ After the first kiss” is one of the best opening lines of the year?

Kuntfetish, Chase Icon – “Botched”

Kuntfetish and Chase Icon link up on this abrasive and deeply addictive rap track, whose beat sounds like a classic Neptunes joint that’s been yassified.

Babymorocco – “Babestation”

Roided-up French touch from London’s king of hypersexual throwback pop, “Babestation” is stupid and perverted in all the best ways.

Bree Runway – “2BADGYALZ”

London rapper Bree Runway slows things down on this minimal-maximal track, which dives into low frequencies to create a foreboding, enticing atmosphere.

Allie X – “Bon Voyage”

Allie X skirts the edges of new wave and no wave on this gothy new pop track.

LISA – “Moonlit Floor”

The rumors are true: LISA has “Espresso”-fied Sixpence None The Richer’s “Kiss Me.” It’s a surprising interpolation, but I can totally imagine listening to this 100-10000 times over the next six months.

Ela Minus – “BROKEN”

Elu Minus breaks into the world of pure pop on “Broken,” which builds to a dazzling, expansive finale.

Caribou – “Climbing”

Speaking of dazzling: My favourite song from Caribou’s new album Honey is pure glitter, constantly swishing and refracting like a sparkly dress. (Absolutely killed when I saw him drop it in a club earlier this year!)

Leon Bridges – “Panther City”

The highlight of Leon Bridges’ raw new album Leon drops you right in the middle of Fort Worth, with his immersive lyrics coming across raw and nostalgic.

yunè pinku – “Midnight Oil”

A new track from yuné pinku’s new Scarlet Lamb EP goes deep, perfectly capturing a middle-of-the-night feeling of hyperactivity and emotion.
