The 7th album from Poliça presents subtle shifts in their electropop, with a few simple, hooky tunes mixed among the novel, tech-forward strategies that make the Mpls band so distinct. Very sadly, to be bassist Chris Bierden's final session. SPNS pick: Wasted Me

The latest single from Paris-based Fragrance (Matthieu Roche) showcases his knack for a melancholy hook, delived in a whisper, over techno-inspired rhythms and textures. #synthpop #fragrancemusic

Helsinki duo Modem's latest single is a rough-hewn, sticky banger that sounds like it could have been licensed to Celluloid in 1980, but in Finnish. #synthpop
