So many artists, so many songs, so little time. Each week we review a handful of new albums (of all genres), round up even more new music that we’d call “indie,” and talk about what metal is coming out. We post music news, track premieres, and more all day. We update a playlist weekly of some of our current favorite tracks. Here’s a daily roundup with a bunch of interesting, newly released songs in one place.

LILY ALLEN – “BEG FOR ME (JADE REMIX)”

Just ahead of her performance at Mighty Hoopla, Lily Allen has shared this new remix of her “Beg For Me” (from her great 2025 album West End Girl) by Jade.




WILLOW – “TALK ON THE HILL”

WILLOW announced a new album, The Thread, due out July 24 via Three Six Zero Recordings. NEw single “Talk on the Hill” is inspired by “The Telepathy Tapes” podcast, and WILLOW says, “I want to thank Dr. Diane Hennacy Powell and Ky Dickens for their extraordinary bravery in studying and documenting the quiet teachers whose gifts stand at the threshold of mysteries our culture has barely begun to contemplate.”




BLOOD ORANGE – “ESSEX_HONEY.MP3”

Blood Orange released new album Essex Honey earlier this year and now he’s just dropped what would’ve been the title track if it had actually appeared on the album. “ESSEX_HONEY.MP3” features a sample of Sky Ferreira’s “Everything is Embarrassing” which he produced.




TOM MORELLO – “ADJOURN IT” (FT. SERJ TANKIAN & ROMAN MORELLO)

Following the announcement of his Power to the People festival, Tom Morello has shared a new single featuring his son Roman and Serj Tankian of System of a Down. “At this historical juncture every act of art is an act of resistance and ‘Adjourn It,’ a collaboration with long time friend Serj Tankian and my 15 year old guitar wiz son Roman Morello, is a clarion call for justice in unjust times,” Tom says. “Produced by Zakk Cervini (Bring Me The Horizon, Yungblud, Aerosmith) this latest tune from my upcoming solo album combines multi-generational Morello bulldozer riffs with the great Serj Tankian’s prophetic wailings. Inspired by the persecution of immigrants across the land and the heroic resistance to the rising tide of fascism it’s just about damn time to rock for freedom, justice and equality.”




JOSEPH (CH) – “B4U”

Swiss DJ and producer JOSEPH (CH) has signed to DJ Koze’s Pampa Records and released his first single for the label. Chill house jam “B4U” will be out as a 12″ on June 26 but you can listen now.




MANY ROOMS – “YOU’RE GONNA DIE” & “REUNION”

Texas artist Brianna Hunt has shared her first new music as Many Rooms since 2021, the two-song EP Death & Life. “Since I took pause from MR 6 years ago I’ve had three children,” she writes. “THREE! I jumped into a completely new paradigm. There were downloads. One being a perpetual underlying Knowing that this is all passing away, and when you have kids that Knowing becomes visceral and you really have to learn how to ground yourself and orientate around gratitude or you will slowly lose your sanity to death fright. 2020 human behaviors taught me that too and it’s why I wrote this song. I’m sorry btw in advance for sounding so harsh and angry, it’s because at the time I was harsh and angry. Death sucks and fear sucks and cowards suck worse, especially when the coward is me!”




GOLD PANDA – “DING THE MOTOR”

DJ and producer Gold Panda is back with new album TON UP which will be out June 26. He describes the album as “eight rough-hewn dance tracks and two cozy little service-station interludes,” and you can hear “Ding the Motor” now.




ARIANA GRANDE – “HATE THAT I MADE YOU LOVE ME”

Ariana Grande has given us a first taste of her new album Petal, which arrives on July 31 via Republic. She co-wrote and produced “Hate That I Made You Love Me” with Ilya and Max Martin.




KAITLIN BUTTS – “NEVER REALLY MINE”

“At a festival in Austin, my husband and I were walking through the crowd to get backstage, and someone essentially catcalled my husband as I was holding his hand,” Kaitlin Butts says. “It actually made me laugh out loud because she was right – he is ‘foiinneeee,’ When we got backstage, my friend Fernando asked me if that ever bothered me, and I said, ‘a man that can be taken from me was never really mine.’ I thought about how much I wish other women felt that way and that they had that same security as I do. He doesn’t have a wandering eye, and if someone ever took his attention away, I wouldn’t be tugging at him to stay with me. I would want him to go on and get her.” She co-wrote her new single “Never Really Mine” with Lola Kirke and Maggie Antone.




070 SHAKE – “BABY DRIVER”

070 Shake’s new single “Baby Driver” is in collaboration with the video game PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS, whose trailers she’s had songs appear in previously. She performed the song and a few others in a livestream on their YouTube channel hosted by Dayoung.




DEAD TIRED – “EDGE OF ENTROPY”

Dead Tired, fronted by Alexisonfire co-vocalist George Pettit, announced a new album, Hornets of Fall, due out August 14 via New Damage. “Dead Tired can be a real vehicle for my more misanthropic lyrics,” Pettit says. “‘Edge Of Entropy’ is basically about standing back and watching as the world collectively makes the wrong decision and how people choose self-interest at their own peril.”




JJEROME87 – “MR. ALLIGATOR”

Joe Newman of alt-J has given us another preview of his debut solo album with “Mr. Alligator.” He says, “The path of a Preacher. The rise of a Predator. Mr Alligator is the story of a grifter with a penchant for coercive control, violence and a soulless indifference towards their fellow man.”




CARA DELEVINGNE – “I FORGOT” & “OUT OF MY HEAD”

Actress Cara Delevingne has signed to Warner Records and released a pair of new singles, “I Forgot” and “Out of My Head.” She co-produced them with BJ Burton, and says, “Music was always that dream I had, but never believed I would get the opportunity to create. Writing ‘I Forgot’ felt like a rebirth for me and ‘Out of my Head’ was like going to therapy. Everything has felt like it’s led up to this point and I can’t wait for everyone to experience it.”




ANNA MCCLELLAN – SPACE, YOU BIG CLOUD

NY-based singer-songwriter Anna McClellan has surprise released a new EP, Space, you big cloud, via Rather Daughter Records. “It’s nice to have songs as markers of time and space,” she says. “They help me make sense of being alive and process feelings, and also preserve feelings. I’ll listen to an old song and be like, ‘wow oh yeah I forgot that feeling. I don’t experience it the same way anymore.'”




RECLUS.É – “A MUTED TV” & “ROADS” (PORTISHEAD COVER)

Reclus.É, the project of Daniel P Carter and Soren Bryce, has shared their debut single and a cover of Portishead’s “Roads.” Read more about those here.




WYCLEF JEAN – “MR. OCTOBER” FT. G HERBO

It’s the first taste of Wyclef Jean’s ambitious seven-album, genre-spanning project called Quantum Leap.




SYD – “CALLLIN” FT. BLU JUNE

Syd announced her third album, Beard, and shared the first single, which you can read more about here.

like, like every other track is trying to sound like it’s from the 80s or 90s and half the time im like… were you even alive then?? it’s weird when the production is so polished it feels fake-retro. but then again i lowkey love some of those synthwave-y tracks so im part of the problem. whats worse is when theyre clearly pandering but idk man i think im just salty bc some of these artists are younger than the trends theyre copying. still, if it slaps it slaps. whats a song that actually does the throwback thing well without feeling forced?

After Saturday at Governors Ball was cut short due to severe weather and multiple artists had their sets cut, Sunday also had a weather-related delay, although thankfully a brief one. Sets were temporarily paused around 1:45pm because of lightning in the area, but they were able to resume not long after, and the rest of the day happened as scheduled, and with the addition of Blood Orange, after he was cut from Saturday. A$AP Rocky made the most of the big stage with his headlining set with a troop of dancers, a bullhorn, a helicopter and American flags, telling the crowd, “I came to get disrespectful” (Rihanna was also seen watching). He took the stage late and got cut off early, but before that he delivered a career-spanning set that included lots of songs from his January album Don’t Be Dumb. Sunday at Governors Ball also included sets from Geese, Japanese Breakfast (who revealed that she’s pregnant), Slayyyter, Clipse, Fcukers, Hemlocke Springs, Hot Mulligan, Jennie, Freddie Gibbs, Rachel Chinouriri, Hannah Jadagu, Holly Humberstone, and more. See pictures from the whole day (most are by Ellen Qberplaya, Freddie Gibbs photo by Rich Fury) below.

Wishy have announced Nature’s Pill, their second album, which will be out October 2 via Winspear. The worked again with Triple Seven co-producer Ben Lumsdaine in this one.

The first single from the album is “Lovesick” which gives off strong ’80s alt-rock vibes. “There’s not much more that needs to be said about yearning in 2026, but here it is anyway,” singer-guitarist Nina Pitchkites says. “Kevin and I are stupidly romantic people who like twee pop so that combination alone was a recipe for a cheeky ‘main character’ song. We really leaned into the overzealous lyrics here because 1) we’re allowed, 2) can do whatever we want and 3) it’s fun 🙂 yay!” Watch the video below.

Wishy have also announced a fall tour which includes an NYC show at Racket on October 17. Tickets for all fall dates go on sale Friday, June 12 at 10 AM. The band are also on tour with The Beths and Beach Bunny, and all dates are listed below.

An autobiography from the late legendary composer Ryuichi Sakamoto, titled Music Sets You Free: A Memoir, has been announced today (June 9).


The memoir from the “godfather of electronic music” will be released on September 22 via HarperVia books.

A statement from publishers HarperVia (an imprint of Harper Collins) described it as “the complete autobiography from the legendary and fearless musician, composer, and activist Ryuichi Sakamoto, in a brilliant translation from the Japanese by Sam Bett and with the full support and collaboration of Sakamoto’s estate and management team.”

You can pre-order the memoir here.

A statement from publishing house Harper Collins added: “Music Sets You Free combines the translations of Sakamoto’s two memoirs published in Japanese – Music Makes You Free and How Many More Times Will I Watch the Full Moon Rise? It offers an intimate, contemplative account of his life, from his first encounter with a piano, to his rise as a global pop star, and his later reflections on mortality and music in the wake of multiple cancer treatments and surgeries.

“An affirming, beautifully written testament to art, life and sound, Music Sets You Free is a lasting gift from a true musical great.

Sakamoto died in 2023 at the age of 71. After making his name as a founding member of pioneering electronic band Yellow Magic Orchestra, he went on to become a revered composer for films such as The Last Emperor, Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence and The Revenant.

The NME obituary for Sakamoto said: “Over the decades, he remained fascinated with the pop song, testing the endurance of its form through different methods of musicianship – even while holding on to his earliest and dearest classical inspirations. In the wake of his departure, it’s hard to imagine that there will ever be another like Ryuichi Sakamoto.”

Meanwhile, last year, the estate of Sakamoto joined the ’No Music For Genocide’ campaign and removed his music from streaming in Israel.

The campaign was a cultural boycott initiative encouraging artists and rights-holders to pull their music from streaming platforms in Israel in response to the genocide in Gaza.

Massive Attack, Fontaines D.C., Amyl & The Sniffers, and Kneecap were among the first leading names to join the initiative and were soon joined by Paramore, Rina Sawayama, MIKE, Primal Scream, Faye Webster, Japanese Breakfast, Yaeji, King Krule, MJ Lenderman, Mannequin Pussy, Wednesday, Soccer Mommy and .

The estate of the legendary Japanese composer also joined, writing on Facebook: “To the extent possible, the Estate has removed or issued formal requests to labels to remove his music from all DSP (streaming and download) services in Israel. For much of his catalog, this has already taken effect.”

Other leading names to back ‘No Music For Genocide’ included Björk, Lorde, IDLES, MUNA, Paloma Faith, Clairo, Wolf Alice, Lucy Dacus and AURORA.

The post Ryuichi Sakamoto autobiography ‘Music Sets You Free: A Memoir’ announced appeared first on NME.
