Danish artist Erika de Casier follows her excellent 2021 full-length Sensational with Still. Like her prior album, the new one nods to 1990s and early-oughts R&B, with askew electronic touches on tracks like “Lucky” and “Ice.” The latter single features bars from Florida hip-hop duo They Hate Change, while Blood Orange appears on “Twice,” and London’s Shygirl hops on “Ex-Girlfriend.” De Casier co-produced Still with N, and enlisted players like Kirsten Nyhus Janssen, Nick León, Jonathan Jull Ludvigsen, Carl Emil Johansen, Christian Rhode Lindinger, and Tobias Sachse to fill out the record.

Hurray for the Riff Raff: The Past Is Still Alive [Nonesuch]
The Past Is Still Alive is the new album from Alynda Segarra’s project Hurray for the Riff Raff, following 2022’s Life on Earth. Segarra recorded their new LP the month after their father died, working in the studio alongside veteran producer Brad Cook. They also enlisted the talents of collaborators like Meg Duffy, Conor Oberst, Anjimile, S.G. Goodman, Phil Cook, Libby Rodenbough, Matt Douglas, Mike Mogis, and Yan Westerlund. Last fall, Segarra released lead single “Alibi,” which they referred to as “a plea, a last ditch effort to get through to someone you already know you’re gonna lose.” Segarra also shared “Snake Plant (The Past Is Still Alive),” “Colossus of Roads,” and “Hawkmoon.”
