Virginia group the Five One turns back to the 1990s and puts a hip-pop spin on “Closing Time.” (Andrew Markowitz) Da Phuture:
“Stupid Dope Moves”
After percolating for months, this DMV banger has officially achieved mainstream earworm status.
The Weeknd: “What You Need”
The mysterious Canadian duo (at least, we think they’re a duo) are proteges of Drake and, if this killer track is any indication, pioneers of a new subgenre: smooth electro.
The Five One: “Closing Time”
The Reston outfit proves that ’90s nostalgia isn’t just for aging Pavement fans with this affectionate hip-pop take on Semisonic’s “Closing Time.”
Mindless Behavior featuring Ciara, Tyga and Lil Twist: “My Girl (Remix)”
The pint-size boy band reworks its first-class jam with help from Ciara, who does an age-appropriate version of her usual World’s Sweetest Gangsta Moll routine. Resistance is futile.
Fever Ray: “The Wolf”
Knife frontwoman Karin Dreijer Andersson’s contribution to the new “Red Riding Hood” soundtrack is a dark, bass-rattling, organ liquefier of a track that’s nevertheless her most accessible song in ages.
