Sometimes the most fascinating songs are the ones you discover almost completely by accident. A fair amount of today’s Pick Your Poison might seem unfamiliar at first glance, but I encourage you to dive in anyways, because there are plenty of gems to be found. For example, the psychedelic funk of Jonti might hook your interest. The otherwise odd pairing of Katy Perry and Hot Chip turns out to be oddly inspired, as the band remixed the pop star’s latest single. There’s a fascinating reggae/R&B/funk mixture that Mansionz bring to the table that’s addictive and worth your time. Charli XCX lends her voice and star-boosting power to Mura Masa’s new track that’s a buyoant slice of off-kilter pop. Other notable cuts in this set come from Allday (ft. Japanese Wallpaper), Brodinski (ft. Hoodrich Pablo Juan), Katie Buchanan, Shy Glizzy (ft. 21 Savage), Smino, Tommy Genesis, WALL and more.
