This edition of MBE may be cut a little short to make space for pressing news coverage, but we’re making the condensed timeline extra sweet with our song selects. Tune in for a searingly hot new single from SBTRKT with an assist from Toro y Moi, and mark that calendar for SBTRKT’s eagerly awaited LP Rat Road, due May 5 via Save Yourself/AWAL. Plus, a brand new single from gentle LA space rockers Cola which centers America’s pastime — late night Zillow browsing. Also on deck are classics from Stereolab and the Cure, and a post-Bossa Nova groove that you can snag as a free download.
