Five tracks to hear this week (Apr 27-May 4)

Two of the finest current articulators of the teenage experience, Billie Eilish and Khalid, have hooked up for a grandiose duet. Lovely is exactly that, and streaming now.

California’s Matt Simons is strangely bigger in mainland Europe than here or his homeland right now, thanks to his music’s apperance in a Dutch TV show. That may change with his new song, We Can Do Better, an optimistic blast of horns and keyboards with a cute video full of singing kids.

A decade since her debut album, Swedish singer-songwriter Lykke Li is back with the first fruits of a fourth solo album: two new songs, Deep End and Hard Rain. She sounds less unhappy than on her last release and it’s hard to choose which is finer.

Dance trio Disciples now have one platinum single (On My Mind) and one double-platinum (the Calvin Harris collaboration How Deep is Your Love) so their next single, Atheist, is likely to be heading chartwards too after its release today.
