Added to The Current's playlist this week: Jade shares the 1993-inspired song off the Magnetic Fields' 50-song 50 Song Memoir album (yep, 50 songs) that documents Stephin Merritt's life. Also in the mix is a track from an androgynous Manchester-based artist who goes by the name Japanese House, the latest from Spoon off their forthcoming Hot Thoughts album due in March, an Americana track by Nikki Lane, Aussie music from Middle Kids and Chicago hip hop from Noname.
