King Louie King L is back with a new mixtape, and Tony is sounding like some of his best work.

If you want something harder, check the Bobby Johnson-produced "Day."

"I'll Krill You" is the hazy, off-kilter first single from Helado Negro's upcoming Double Youth album.

Ark Patrol takes on Young the Giant's "Islands," transforming the single into a cool, sparkling rework. Download the remix here.

Parker Ighile is the first artist signed to Nicki Minaj's label, and his latest is the G-Eazy-featuring "This is America," featuring sparse synths and contagious melodies. As a songwriter and producer, he's worked with plenty of big-name acts like Rihanna, Jessie J, Rita Ora, and Ariana Grande, and it sounds like he'll have no trouble finding his groove as a solo artist.

Anna of the North, a Norwegian singer from our Best Artists of June list, unveiled a third song on SoundCloud this past week. The collaboration with a friend named Little Dreamer is labeled as a demo, but it's a heartbreaking little gem. For now, this demo will do, but hopefully we'll hear a final version soon.
