Stretching from Amsterdam to South Africa to Brooklyn to London to Los Angeles and back to Minnesota, we've got a half-dozen new tracks you're going to want to check out.

Black Coffee, "Flava"

In February, South African DJ, songwriter and singer Black Coffee (whose birth name is Nkosinathi Innocent Maphumulo) released his sixth full-length album, Subconciously. It's packed with full-bodied jams from the beat maker who has spent the last two decades picking up accolades internationally as the best dance and house DJ.

EVV, "Dead to Me"

"Dead to Me" is the final track on EVV's debut EP, Homebody, which was released in December of 2020. The project clocks in at a snappy nine minutes, and its three tracks demonstrate EVV's dexterity as an artist, opening with the slow burning "He Said, No More" and closing with the lively powerhouse "Dead to Me." The song was written as a reaction to a tense work environment but its universal themes of anger and exploitation can be applied to a variety of situations.

"'Dead to Me' changes meaning depending on how I'm feeling that day," said EVV (whose name is pronounced like the first syllable in the word "ever"). "But I originally wrote it about some unfriendly bosses I had. I remember sitting at work and being so upset I felt like I had to channel the energy into writing." – Maddie, host on The Current

Crumb, "Trophy"

The Brooklyn band's debut, Jinx, came out in 2019 and with their first song since that release, the four-piece continue to expand their dreamy landscape. "Trophy" is a discordant slow dance through a David-Lynchian high school prom, just eerie enough to keep things interesting.

Iris Doe, "The Times"

Iris Doe, a new project from Jeffrey Cain of alt-rockers The Church and Remy Zero, has released its debut single, "The Times." The track is a dark and timely song recorded in Dave Grohl's Los Angeles studio while playing around with some of his vintage instruments and studio equipment.

Kero Kero Bonito, "The Princess and the Clock"

Fairytales sound fun and frenetic in the hands of London band Kero Kero Bonito. Their album Civilisation II will be out April 21; ahead of the release, the band released this synth-pop single, "The Princess and The Clock."

Altin Gün, "Kara Toprak"

The Amsterdam-based Turkish psych-music group will be part of the online SXSW festival going on this week. This track finds the group keeping '80s synth sounding fresh with funky drums and bass, along with haunting vocals.
