The best songs of the week

A bricolage of UK club sounds.

One of the Nialler9 New Artists of 2016 and a Mura Masa collaborator, the Dublin-raised / American-born / London-based Bonzai (most recently on ‘What If I Go?’) has released her latest EP on Mura Masa’s Anchor Point records.

A bricolage of beats, bass and club sounds, the 19 year-old’s EP draws influence from rap, grime, dubstep, acid, techno and D&B and operates at a high-tempo.  ‘No Rest’ is a standout.
