At JustFocus, we love all styles of music. And so that your playlist is never too dated, our team of editors offers you at the beginning of the week the playlist of the editorial #103, a selection of 10 freshly released tracks. From Suzane to Sigrid via Christine and The Queens, here is a 360-degree tour of the latest news to add to your playlist!
Noucky's picks
Suzane – FLEMMA
With a so 90's rhythm and a very manga graphics, Suzane delivers us an ultra Pop clip on a theme that touches us all… Especially at the beginning of the week: I named the Flemma! So you might as well take the opportunity to shake yourself horizontally by taking up Suzane's completely disillusioned choreography. We love it! She will be present at the Solidays festival this year and we hope to meet her there. (See here)
Kiddy Smile – Dickmatized
So there… You will tell me that we have been a blow at Justfocus. Bah it must be said that there is something with Kiddy Smile! This queer friendly clip is super funny and goes completely into a tailspin. It's a real guilty pleasure. Musically, it's old-fashioned house. Visually, it's a big delirium about sex addictions… More than suggestive. Kiddy Smile will be on the Eurockéennes program and plays in Gaspard Noé's film Climax , presented at the Directors' Fortnight in Cannes this year. This title is part of the soundtrack of the film.(See here)

Two people – I'm Tied, To You
Two People consists of Phoebe Lou and Joseph Clough, a Melbourne duo formed following the dissolution of their previous project. After two years, they finalized their first LP, and released the title I'm Tied, To You. The piece describes the attachment to oneself, the difficulty of getting rid of it and letting go. Inspired by Portishead, their music exaggerates every sound, while keeping a regular, melancholic line, embellished with soaring saxophone tunes.(See here)
Mac DeMarco – She's My Sweet / Fuck The Toronto Raptors
The troublemaker Mac DeMarco took advantage of the holding in New York of the Met Gala, a social event combining stars of cultural industries and fashion, to announce the recording of new songs on the red carpet of the event, hence its title. This is a joke, which marks the two pieces made freely available on the Internet. The first, She's My Sweet, parodies an R'n'B track with autotune and vain lyrics repeated in loops, while Fuck The Toronto Raptors (a nod to the defeat of the eponymous basketball team the day before), has a groove bass line, a synthetic voice of the 80s repeating the title at will.

IGIT – Joy
Canek's choices
Pharrell Williams X Camila Cabello – Sangria Wine
Camila Cabello is back with Sangria Wine. It is a song produced by the genius Pharrell, behind the hit Havana which has plenty of summer vibes and is a hymn to the Cuban origins of the singer. Sangria Wine was first unveiled during their Never Be The Same Tour in Vancouver. The fans loved the sound so much that they begged the singer on social networks to unveil the recording in the studio and here it is: another hit in the singer's repertoire.(See here)
Clean Bandit – Solo feat. Demi Lovato
Clean Bandit is back with the sensual single entitled Solo in collaboration with singer Demi Lovato. Solo is an electro pop hit in the same musical universe as Rockabye with Anne Marie and Sean Paul. After each single release, Clean Bandit has become the pop band par excellence that does not disappoint. Do you remember the catchy rhythm of I Miss You with Julia Michaels or the sweetness of Symphony with Zara Larsson? Solo is definitely the song we needed to dance all summer.(See here)
Simon's choices
Christine and The Queens – Damn, Tell Me
Ghosts – Back With The Sun
It smells good summer with the first EP of Fantomes released Friday. Melody and sweet and summery lyrics, Back With The Sun makes you want to sip a cocktail on the beach. The 4 tracks of the rest of the EP are just as good and fresh. Regarding the release party, it will take place at the Pop-Up of the Label on May 31st.(See here)
Emma's choice
Sigrid – High Five
We told you lately , Sigrid is the new pop phenomenon to follow this year. Straight from Norway, she released this week the clip of a new single : High Five, unveiled three weeks ago. Led by a voice that wanders between changes in tone, the song is punctuated by a clip embodied by a simple and true Sigrid. Single feel good and endearing personality, hard to resist the urge to support the young artist. It will be on the roads of Great Britain this summer and on June 29th at the EUROPAVOX in Clermont-Ferrand !(See here)
