Kasper Marott is great, the best new-to-me thing so far.
KH was on my long list, but I knew it wouldn't need my help. There's a radio edit, JF (in this case, useful).

speaks to the strength of the album that this isn't a top 5-8 track on it for me.

https://i.imgur.com/TisVhx8.jpg62: Rosalía- “Aute Cuture” - 175 points - 7 votesvideoRosalía (Post-Flamenco Art-Pop From Spain)
The Singles Jukebox
As someone who argued a long time ago that Kill Bill is a feminist movie, and was later chagrined to hear that Uma Thurman’s on-set experience did not bear this out, I am officially calling it a trend, of female musicians being inspired to put their own Tarantinoesque spin on things. Three makes a trend, right? The first example y’all know already. The second: Brown Eyed Girls’ more strict take on “Kill Bill,” in which all male roles are eliminated, the plot becomes an excuse for intra-band goofiness, and the first dance shot is of a faceless male dancer lifting his crotch to the camera. And now here’s a third, complete with closeups of feet, dramatic zooms, knife sound effects, overstyled titles announcing new baddies, and the Western motif of the protagonist striding through the dusty town–although unlike Tarantino’s protagonists, Rosalía and her Beauty Gang are here to transform and uplift, not destroy. The song itself is similarly open-hearted: poppier and more static than the precise stories of El Mal Querer, but to a purpose: a widespread drink, a designer label, the fun in self-expression lies everywhere in between. This is why you don’t throw the art out with the artist: because you can’t predict whose art the art is going to inspire. - Jessica Doyle
After “Con Altura” nabbed the top spot in Spain, it feels apt that Rosalía quickly returns with her own version of a Beyoncé song. Its repetitive nature makes it feel twice the length, and these drums and horns act as a constant reminder of Rosalía’s well-deserved star status. It feels like the opposite of a Shepard tone: instant gratification from the moment it starts, and every second thereafter until it ends. - Joshua Minsoo Kim

couldn't choose between any of the nominated rosalía songs so i ended up voting for none of them :(

I'm gonna love this then

Not my favourite of hers based on what little I've heard but it's alright. The less American international the better ime.

Whew just got up, great results so far! I voted for the Jenny Lewis and Tayla Parx that placed, both outstanding tracks. I enjoyed the Purple Mountains album but somehow none of it made it on my ballot.

totally out of the bobbins loop these days, but this Marott track is nice (well so far, at 6:00)

Every time I'd hear a song from this album I'd think to myself "I should listen to it more" and every time I'd forget. That's my fault and not hers. She's making good work.

Great song, great album (narrowly missed my ballot, though).

Three bangers back to back. "This Life," so effortless. Rosalia's jam resists categorizing, Weyes Blood gave the sun-kissed histrionics I wanted from Angel Olsen.

Koenig's OH CHRIST is my favorite in a pop song after John Lennon's CHRIST in "The Ballad of John and Yoko."
