Music / PlaylistThe only tracks you need to hear in MarchKanye samples Arthur Russell, Lafawndah plays town crier, and Charli XCX teams up with SOPHIEShareLink copied ✔️March 4, 2016MusicPlaylistTextSelim BulutIllustrationJavier Sola You probably missed some of the incredible music that came out over the past four weeks, and that’s OK: Kanye West’s The Life of Pablo has dominated the news cycle and instantly overshadowed basically every other new release. So you might not have noticed that Kindness released a stunning new single for charity based on the story of a Syrian refugee he met in London, or that Connan Mockasin dropped a downright weird cover of a lost new romantic song from 1981, or that Charli XCX and SOPHIE teamed to make some sleek, shiny, high-definition pop music together. And while you probably have heard The Life of Pablo, you might not have known that one of the album’s highlights, “30 Hours”, was based around a sample of legendary avant-garde musician Arthur Russell. All these tracks are collected in our latest playlist, which also features new songs from some lesser-known musicians and up-and-coming talent, including an insanely catchy new single from Kero Kero Bonito (the best, and possibly only Anglo-Japanese, rap trio to emerge from south London’s suburbs), trance-worshipping UK artist Ana Caprix, and fearless Norwegian experimentalist Susanna.
