Very tough battle between euro country and d£aler for me, both incredibly fantastic in different ways, cmat delivers one f her best yet with such a heart breaking track, while Lola stays on top form with such a tune…

Hard between Pendulum and Tame Impala but went for the latter!

Nova Twins and Pendulum are the only ones that interest me. Went for Nova Twins.

Pendulum track is a bit too Prodigy vs PWEI in 1993 to warrant a vote.

Very underwhelmed by D£aler. Lola seems to be one on, one off for me.

Tame Impala 🤩

Although I quite like most of them this week

Has to be Tame Impala for me

Some great ones this week, but Lola Young is my favourite of them all - hope this can be another hit for her.

Tame Impala for me, even if this sonic pivot is more in line with Electronic Track of the Week

Close this week!

My personal rank for Week 30;

1. Nova Twins – N.O.V.A

2. sombr – 12 to 12

3. Royel Otis – say something

4. Tame Impala – End Of Summer

5. Pendulum & WARGASM – Cannibal

6. CMAT – Euro-Country

7. Lola Young – d3aler

8. mgk – miss sunshine

@WhoOdyssey could you fix the title of the Pendulum song please. 🙏🏼
