Ki/Ki – The Temple – 1:30 — 2:30Your brain will likely be completely depleted of serotonin by this point, but you should push through one last time for the techno-laden speedy bangers from Ki/Ki. The Dutch DJ/producer’s high-powered sets are consistently amongst some of the best I’ve seen on the festival circuit. Maybe keep your sunglasses on for this one. JW

“Being in front of the camera is not important to me. I’m just used to it. But I don’t think I’ll be doing it in my next film. The reason I’ve been in front of the camera before, especially early on with online performances and stuff, is because I’m autistic and I find it easier to work with myself than having to communicate with other people. So it’s been a necessary evil.

Ledbyher – WrongNines’ retirement didn’t last long, did it? Last year, the UK rap legend announced he was quitting music, dropped a final album and even sparked up a massive zoot on stage at his farewell gig.

Turnstile – Look Out for MeSome of Turnstile’s fans complained that their arena-ready comeback single Never Enough didn’t quite hit hard enough, raising concerns that the Baltimore punk band have gone too soft for their forthcoming album of the same name. But Turnstile quickly reminded us that they’re a band who can do both: they dropped the gnarly moshpit anthem Birds and the dance-rock pop track Seein’ Stars, which shimmers like Let’s Dance‑era Bowie.
Fakemink, Mechatok and Ecco2k's Makka is a euphoric underground anthem

Fakemink, Mechatok & Ecco2k – MakkaSo far, Fakemink has been selective with his collaborators, preserving his lo-fi sound by only working with a small pool of underground producers and rappers of his generation. Makka sees the 20-year-old enigma step outside his circle to team up with Drain Gang’s Ecco2k and Mechatok, the London-via-Berlin producer who blurs the boundaries between club music, cloud rap and hyperpop. The move has paid off.

“I’m very good at working at shit that might not have any kind of outcome ever” “Otessa Moshfegh? She allegedly wrote one of her books to be a giant commercial success so that she could write whatever she wanted to after that. I think that’s something we should explore more as authors”
Coca-Cola’s personalised cans are back, back, back

Back in 2013, Coca-Cola launched the first iteration of the Share a Coke campaign, which meant you could buy personalised cans with your name on them at the shops. Our teenage selves were shaking: finding personalised anything, at least at the time, was akin to discovering some kind of hidden treasure. Now, over a decade later, Coca-Cola has relaunched the campaign for a new generation, based around the simple concept of sharing a sweet moment between friends.
