Maruja made quite the buzz this year in both the UK’s underground circuit, as well as among sweaty music nerds online (it helps that it’s extremely Fantano-core). That said, the group does pull off this dark, noisy, ambient vibe quite well - exceptionally well, even. It’s not always clear what Joe’s ranting about in his drawled declamations, but that’s not entirely the point either. More than anything, the addition of some fairly heavy-handed saxophone instrumentation to the noise-punk formula is a welcome one; Zeitgeist is a blast from start to finish.

While there are still a bunch of 2023 releases I haven't checked out yet, here are my top 30 or so of the year thus far. Not sure why the Smoulder art isn't downloading.

(repost because the original post was marked as NSFW) still trying to tweak a few things with this series. i think i will present the songs in an unranked fashion, but i will still note which song is my favorite of the month! every song will be linked below and i rlly hope y’all enjoy this month’s list. (i’m surprised i was even able to get this done because i’ve been playing Zelda nonstop lol)
also feel free to follow me on rate your music and twitter
Tumblr media
‧₊˚✧ BEST SONG OF THE MONTH ✧˚₊‧
“Tears Can Be So Soft” - Christine and the Queens
◇ featured on Paranoïa, Angels, True Love - Christine and the Queens (not yet released) ◇ genres: trip-hop, alt-pop
To be completely honest, I’m not super familiar with a lot of Christine and the Queens work. I love his feature on Charli XCX’s “Gone” and I thought his 2020 EP La vita nuova was pretty decent as well, but other than that I’m pretty much clueless. Despite that, his latest single absolutely blew me away. “Tears Can Be So Soft” takes obvious inspiration from 90s trip-hop, but god it sounds so incredible. The wispy, dreamy vocals backed against a string arrangement sampled from a Marvin Gaye song is a combo that works extremely well. I absolutely love this song and its probably my favorite of this month. If his next album is gonna sound like this, I’m super excited.

“Babylon By Bus” (feat. ShrapKnel) - billy woods & Kenny Segal
◇ featured on Maps - billy woods & Kenny Segal ◇ genre: abstract hip-hop
Maps, the latest collaboration between billy woods and Kenny Segal, is probably the most standout album of the month. Many of the tracks on the album could’ve made this list, but I wanted to limit it to a single one. “Babylon By Bus” is the song I’ve revisited the most. Like a lot of billy woods’ work, this song has that eerie and off-putting feel that makes him stand out. The verses from woods are very strong, but so is the verse from rap group ShrapKnel. I hadn’t heard of them until this and I will probably listen to more of their stuff in the future! Excellent song and an incredible album that I highly recommend.
Tumblr media
“Justify Your Life” - George Clanton
◇ featured on Ooh Rap I Ya - George Clanton (not yet released) ◇ genres: chillwave, baggy, neo-psychadelia
George Clanton’s previous single, “I Been Young”, was my favorite song of last month and his latest single is one of my favorite songs of this month. “Justify Your Life” follows the 90s nostalgia of the previous single and I love this sound so much. Judging by the art direction of these two singles, it seems like this sound is what Clanton is going with for this new album which is super exciting. This track sounds a bit darker than the last, but it still has one of those choruses you just wanna obnoxiously sing along to. This upcoming album has the potential to be my album of the year given how incredible these singles have been.
Tumblr media
“AMERICA HAS A PROBLEM” - Beyoncé & Kendrick Lamar
◇ genres: electro, pop rap
Breaking down this song and explaining why its good feels a little bit pointless. Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar, two of the most important artists of our time, team up on a remix of a song from her excellent 2022 album RENAISSANCE. Obviously it’s great, look who is involved. Go listen.
Tumblr media
“The Blades” - Squid
◇ featured on O Monolith - Squid (not yet released) ◇ genres: experimental rock, art rock
This new Squid album comes out in a few weeks and I couldn’t be more excited. I’ve enjoyed the bands earlier EPs and Bright Green Field, but I think this new album could very well be their best so far. “The Blades” is yet another great single. The band has been playing around with added touches of different genres into their sound and it just keeps paying off. The little elements of krautrock are especially a nice touch. I have very high hopes for this new album and I can’t wait to hear it.
Tumblr media
“Space Orphans” - Ichiko Aoba
◇ genre: chamber folk
I’ve been slowly working my way through Ichiko Aoba’s discography after adoring her 2020 album Windswept Adan. I wasn’t aware of this new single until after this post was published so I’m adding it in post. This new single is a gorgeous, spacey, chamber folk ballad that is very easy to listen to. The soft strings that occasionally accompany her voice and guitar are a very nice touch. Every time I dive into the world of her music, I am completely captivated. 
Tumblr media
“Cops and robbers” - underscores
◇ genres: noise pop, indietronica
I absolutely loved underscores’ debut album Fishmonger and I have been anticipating whatever they were gonna follow it up with. Their latest single “Cops and robbers” builds upon the sound of their last album, but with a bit more polish. It has elements of hyperpop mixed with noisy instrumentation and a chorus that is clearly inspired by pop-punk of the 2000s. These all work together so well. Hopefully this is leading up to a new album.
Tumblr media
“sulky baby” - yeule
◇ genres: dream pop, indie pop
yeule is an artist whose music I need to dive into further. I enjoyed a good bit of their last album Glitch Princess, but I couldn’t have anticipated how great this song is. “sulky baby” is one of the finest dream pop songs I’ve heard in a while. I absolutely adore the way the hazy guitar lures you into the track before everything comes to create this incredible burst of dreamy goodness. This is without a doubt one of my favorite tracks of the year so far.
Tumblr media
“Zeitgeist” - Maruja
◇ genres: experimental rock, art punk, post-punk
Fresh off of dropping a really impressive EP, Maruja returns with another great song. If you liked their debut EP, I’m sure you will love this new single. One thing I love about this band is their consistently interesting instrumentation. The bass towards the start of this track is really cool and adding saxophone into a post-punk song is always a recipe for something great. This band is on fire right now and I can’t wait to see what they have coming up.
Tumblr media
“Master P (feat. Big Sean)” - KAYTRAMINÉ
◇ featured on KAYTRAMINÉ - KAYTRAMINÉ ◇ genre: pop-rap
KAYTRANADA and Aminé joined forces to make a very good summer album. There are plenty of highlights across the project, but I wanted to shout out this track in particular. “Master P” isn’t the most summer-y on the album, but I think its one of the biggest highlights on the album. I think this track has some of Aminé’s strongest rapping in a while and when Big Sean’s verse comes in the track is elevated even more. Really loving this one.
Tumblr media
“Infinity Repeating (2013 Demo)” - Daft Punk & Julian Casablancas + The Voidz
◇ featured on Random Access Memories (10th Anniversary Edition) - Daft Punk ◇ genres: disco, electronic
It kinda feels like cheating putting this on here, but I feel like I have to mention it. The 10th anniversary edition of Daft Punk’s magnificent final studio album dropped this month alongside a handful of new demos and extra songs. One such demo is a collaboration with Strokes frontman Julian Casablancas. Daft Punk and Casablancas teamed up for the incredible “Instant Crush” which ended up on the album. I guess this demo was what eventually evolved into that song and I think it holds its own pretty well. If you liked their previous collab, I think you will find something to love about this demo!

samlrc - A Lonely Dinner
Oggi parliamo dell'artista brasiliana Samantha Rodrigues da Cruz, meglio conosciuta come smlrc, che da qualche settimana ha conquistato Rate Your Music e anche il mio cuore di Tuscaloosa.
A 19 anni samlrc irrompe nelle classifiche sul web con un lavoro che deve tanto a Parannoul come a sonhos tomam conta, un album che conferma la trasformazione del rock attraverso i linguaggi ibridati del contemporaneo. Sempre di più il giornalismo musicale controculturale sta spostando il proprio sguardo sul Brasile, luogo di intense battaglie politiche, sociali e quindi intellettuali. Gli…

I Migliori Dischi Post Punk Del 2023
Cosa è rimasto del chiacchieratissimo post punk? Poco e niente, almeno leggendo le recensioni dei giornalisti musicali. Un termine ormai dimenticato a cui è stato sostituito l’interesse per il termine “shoegaze” grazie al ritorno degli Slowdive e a dischi di giovani come Hotline TNT, Slowthai e mille altri. Noi che amiamo navigare nell’underground fa piacere che il post punk sia tornato dove era:…
