Plus a late-summer collab jam packed with dancehall legends, Earl Sweatshirt’s favorite new producer, and more.

Five Songs is a weekly series for paid Hearing Things subscribers in which we each choose a new song we like and write about why we can’t stop listening to it.
Get access to everything we do at Hearing Things—including weekly album and song recommendations along with our ever-growing archive of interviews and reports—with a free 30-day trial!
This time we’ve got a spellbinding whoosh of an experimental track custom built for losing your shit, a woozy head-nodder from one of Earl Sweatshirt’s current go-to producers, the latest surreal dispatch from art-rock idol Cate Le Bon, a star-laden dancehall collab that’s good enough to make you forget DJ Khaled is involved, and an amorphous swirl of pretty glitches courtesy of an indie-rock stalwart. Plus, there are a couple of Must Hear picks—i.e., songs we really, really love—among the five choices. Thanks for listening.
