It’s almost Friday, and we have a day of cool collabs to celebrate. Florence + the Machine manifested a remix from IDLES on “Heaven Is Here,” one of her favorite bands, with whom she says feels a shared sense of “joyful rage and togetherness” on stage.

Nosaj Thing and Toro y Moi team up and drop a single in advance of Nosaj’s album, out tomorrow. You can catch them performing together at the Greek this Saturday night, presented by KCRW!

Finding middle ground somewhere between Brighton and Benin are the English six-piece band The Go! Team and Star Feminine Band, a Benin-based all-female vocal group made up of seven singers between the ages of 12 and 19. Smashingly cool result.

We also celebrate the 30th anniversary of SWV's debut album, "It's About Time," which is triple platinum and generated five hit singles. This EP drops tomorrow and reimagines a few classic SWV tracks. We’ve got you on the early tip.
