Apr 23, 2024

Novena’s weekend was “Coach-ettera” (i.e. Coachella + other desert fun so Coachella, etc.), producer Anna Chang saw (almost) all the acts and proclaims Justice to be the winner of the weekend, and those of us who write the recaps are feeling mild FOMO. Then again, a little FOMO is worth the lack of Coachella cough and extended neck pain so we’ll call it a wash.

More:Justice: MBE Guest DJ Set

Whether you made the trek for one or both weekends, did the “Couchella” thing, or sat it out all together — today’s MBE has something for you. Coachella highlights? Check. Top 30 Chart representation? Check. St. Vincent’s latest All Born Screaming single “Big Time Nothing” playing the minute it became available? You know that’s a check. So get in there now and let’s enjoy some tunes together, shall we?
