There’s an unwritten rule at Weekly5: no multiple features of the same artist within a short period of time. This always carries a particular risk, because artists tend to release one single after another as the album release draws nearer. And I don’t know when the proper banger will come out.

But rules are meant to be broken every now and then. And when you do, you might as well do it properly. That’s why today we have two artists—Camilla Sparksss and Boko Yout—who have already made it into the selection this year, but have surpassed themselves once again with their latest tracks. They’re too good to ignore.

Add to that the eloquent and danceable electronic sounds of Yoan Masao, Moyka and Ani Glass.

Camilla Sparksss
Amami Tu (feat. Francesco Bianconi)

Following her exquisite track Stormseeker, Swiss-Canadian Camilla Sparksss is back with a powerful follow-up. Amami Tu, a collaboration with Italian artist Francesco Bianconi, hammers evocative techno beats and sacred, hypnotic vocals through the speakers. Dark, sensual, even erotic.

Moyka
24/7

Crisp bass drums collide with Nordic coldness, exploding into melancholic melodies. Moyka’s recipe is irresistible; danceable despite its thoughtfulness. Her latest work, the single 24/7, takes this duality to new ecstatic heights.

Boko Yout
9-2-5

With IMAGINE, Swedish musician Boko Yout delivered a captivating mixture of Afro rhythms and fuzzy, grungy guitars. In 9-2-5, he steps on the punk pedal, picks up speed and hurtles through socially critical curves with sharp tongues.

Yoan Masao
Like You

Between spherical synth pads and driving beats, Zurich-based Yoan Masao weaves shadowy, dreamy vocals into a dense fabric for daydreaming dancers. Here, avant-garde theatricality meets futuristic hyperpop to create an excitingly unique sound.

Ani Glass
Phantasmagoria

From Cardiff, Phantasmagoria floats into your ears like an ethereal apparition from the sound alchemy of Ani Glass. With classical influences, cinematic rapture, archaic borrowings and modern electronics, it’s a song that sounds both mystical and earthy at the same time.
