by Allison Stubblebine

Every weekend, we bring you#SOUNDCHECK—your destination for the best of the best new music that's just hit the web, because you should always be prepared when someone passes you that AUX cord. This week's roundup features some of our favorite emerging and established artists, including Dodie, Nakhane, Sigrid and so many more. Turn up, tune in, and tune out.

Human - Dodie

For the quiet moments, when you're alone.

"New Brighton" - Nakhane ft. Anohni

Nakhane's vocals manage to stop me in my tracks every time his music comes on; "New Brighton" is no exception.

"sauce" - DAWN

She's taking back her sexual power.

"LBD" - Becky G

Don't fuck with me in my LBD.

"Don't Feel Like Crying" - Sigrid

I, too, don't feel like crying, but I will anyway! Regardless, this is a sound I can totally get behind.

Outer Peace - Toro y Moi

A whole damn vibe.

"Hold You Back" - Emotional Oranges

Only the third track from this buzzy new duo, but it's clear you'll definitely have to keep tabs on them.

"A Calabasas Freestyle" - Jaden Smith

Smith is keeping his sunset-hued emo boy vibes strong with this latest visual.

"Pretty" - Terror Jr

Even now that we know Terror Jr isn't Kylie Jenner's secret music career, I'm still obsessed.

"RIP Aretha" - Dreezy

If this is any sign, we definitely aren't ready for the full-length that Dreezy is about to drop next week.
