Our #SongOfTheDay is "Water" by Italian new wave duo Krisma. Pure 80s weirdness, it's a somewhat menacing but propulsive tune with creepy falsetto speak-singing.

"Surely" by Nara's Room gives off '90s alt-rock vibes without necessarily following the period's stylistic footprint. It's a catchy one, though, and it's our #SongoftheDay.

Our #SongOfTheDay is "DeadStock" by Chicago's Mick Jenkins from his recently released album with producer EMIL. The beat's rich organ-heavy beat a great complement to Jenkins' ode to IRL.

Ghost Car plays the kind of post-punk that's filled with a sense of fun. A little jumpy, a little angsty, and guided by a rough garage esthetic, they know how to maintain a catchy upbeat feel through a punk mindset.

For #SongOfTheDay we have "twerk wind" by producer Illingsworth. Feels like a good post-Halloween tune: mellow but with a bit of lingering weirdness with its skips and up pitching.
