House Playlist: M.I.A., Zero 7, Holy Ghost!, Au Revoir Simone, Glasser, Roosevelt, & Eric Sharp
M.I.A.'s fourth album, Matangi, is out now.

M.I.A., “UNBREAK my Mixtape”: Somewhat of a departure for M.I.A., the latest track from the artist’s upcoming Matangi, out November 5th on Interscope, is a relatively downtempo pastiche that samples an old-school breakbeat, Blur’s “Tender,” and ’60s folksinger Karen Dalton.

Roosevelt, “Elliot”: The title track from Roosevelt’s debut EP, out now, is described by the Cologne producer himself as “hazy, loved-up guitar pop.” “Elliot” is just as heady as that sounds, but it’s also a lot dancier.
