Itâs been almost two weeks since The 1975 released their highly anticipated âNotes On A Conditional Formâ. Â The final part of the band’s ‘Music for Cars’ release cycle saw the band play with genre, hopping from trip-hop flecked bangers (‘Frail State of Mind’) and orchestral interludes to brit-pop tunes (‘Me & You Together Song’) amd bombastic, â80s tinted pop hits (âIf Youâre Too Shy (Let Me Knowâ) â and everything in-between â over the course of 22 songs. This week weâve chosen the electronic croons of âTonight (I Wish I Was Your Boyâ) for the NME Radio playlist this week.
Also added to NME Radio this week weâve got floor-fillers from Disclosure and Jayda G, and No Rome teams up with mates Beabadoobee and Jay Som for a lovely collaboration.
Here are all this weekâs additions to the NME 1 & 2 playlists:
On the A List
The 1975
âTonight (I Wish I Was Your Boy)â
First up weâve got one from the new The 1975 album. With its squelchy synths and hazy production, âTonight (I Wish I Was Your Boyâ)â is a highlight of the new 22-track LP.

On the B List
No Rome
‘Hurry Home’ feat. Beabadoobee & Jay Som
No Romeâs teamed up with pals Beabadoobee and Jay Som for his latest, ‘Hurry Home’. Combining glittering club-beats and pulsating bass with lilting acoustics, itâs truly lovely.

Disclosure
âEnergyâ
‘Energy’ is the latest glimpse we’ve had of Disclosure’s upcoming album of the same name, and it’s utterly brilliant. Fusing inspirational quotes from Eric Thomas with jubilant Latin beats, itâs four-minutes of pure positivity.
Listen: Spotify | Apple Music
Remi Wolf
âDisco Manâ
Need a soundtrack to your next socially distanced BBQ? Then try out LA-based songwriter Remi Wolfâs new one, ‘Disco Man’. Combining soulful vocals with modern R&B and a killer funk bassline, the earworm tune is ready to soundtrack your summer.

Jayda G
âBoth Of Usâ
Jayda G has been teasing ‘Both Of Us’ in live sets for a while â and now we’ve been treated its official release. All strutting house beats and ethereal vocals, itâs another stone-cold smasher from the DJ. The only problem? We wonât be hearing it played during countless 3am DJ sets at festivals this summer.
Listen: Spotify | Apple Music
Loup GarouX
âStrange Angelsâ
Supergroup Loup GarouX told NME that their new tune ‘Strange Angels’ is an âexplosive Milton-esque narrative of⊠near-death experience, purgatory, revelation, redemption and a final return,â adding that âIt sounds like a huge howling hurricane,â. With its blistering guitar solo courtesy of Ed Harcourt, raucous rhythm section and Queens of the Stone Age-tinted sound, weâd be inclined to agree.

On the C List
Teyana Taylor
âMade Itâ
With its strutting beats and empowering lyrics, Teyana Taylorâs new one is a brilliant self-empowerment anthem.
Listen: Spotify | Apple Music
The Mysterines
âI Win Every Timeâ
Filled with snarling riffs and frontwoman Lia Metcalfe’s growling vocals, âI Win Every Timeâ is a hulking slice of the Liverpool bandâs sweltering sound.
Listen: Spotify | Apple Music
The Brothers Macklovitch
âGive Love To Get Some’ feat. Leven Kali
One for fans of Anderson .Paak or Mac Miller, âGive Love to Get Someâ is euphoric dance meets sultry R&B, and we love it.
Listen: Spotify | Apple Music
TTRRUUCES
âI’m Aliveâ
Last up on the playlist this week weâve got âIâm Aliveâ, a hazy amalgam of indie-pop, psychedelia and eccentric half-spoken vocals â itâs brilliantly weird.
