Opening up with a tangled guitar line, scrawled like messy ballpoint pen doodling all over your work desk; JAN‘s ‘Some Bite, Some Bitten’ is classic ‘breaking out’ music.

Come the end of this scuzzy three and a half minute romp you’ll be ready to escape from the 9-5 routine, flee from your paling living room walls and end your suffocating friendships, all because of Kim Talon’s scratchy Karen O-recalling sirensong and those swarming, waspish hi-hats.

Taken from her self-titled LP, due out on 1 July via Enclaves Music, ‘Some Bite, Some Bitten’ is another teeth-gnashing, riot grrrl-nodding taster of what’s to come from the Brooklyn songstress.

The Mala in Cuba track gets an bass injection.

Dubstep originator-turned-Latin aficionado Mala has reworked ‘Noches Sueños’ into a dubbed out wobbler, with help from eclectic globetrotter Simbad.

The ‘Super Dub Mix’ one-sided 10-inch pressing will be released on Brownswood on 26 June, limited to 1000 copies.

Machinedrum recently announced the quite exciting news of his new LP, Vapor City. To go along with this, he released new track Eyesdontlie, a vocal-sample-centric tune filled with big pads, cutting snares and a pretty, Lone-ish breakdown in the middle:

This piece of music may sound mighty familiar if you were at Sonar over the weekend (and if your ears are sufficiently recovered).

Played between acts on Red Bull Music Academy’s SonarDome stage, the near-17 minute composition was created by 2011 Red Bull graduate, LuckyMe affiliate and FACT favourite Claude Speeed, who crams in squiggly synths, textured ambience and huge, crashing drums, touching on epic electronica from Brainfeeder to Boards of Canada. Listen below, and check out another interlude piece created for the stage by Japanese producer Yosi Horikawa.

At the beginning of the year Speeed delivered a stately and spooky remix of Martyn’s ‘We Are You In The Future’, and we previously got ourselves excited over a 100-minute soundtrack of classical, ambient and drone music he created for a London clothing store.

The times for next week’s Glastonbury Festival are out.

At the very top of the ticket, Friday will see Arctic Monkeys go up against Portshead and Chic; the Stones will contend with Fuck Buttons and Public Enemy on Saturday; and the closing night will see Mumford & Sons playing at the same time as Phoenix and Bobby Womack. Cast your eyes below to plot your timetable, agonize over clashes, and make sure you get to see the Dalai Lama’s Tibetan monks. Note: it looks like The Weeknd has mysteriously vanished from the line-up, suggesting Mr. Tesfaye won’t be stopping by in Pilton after all.

Performances on all of the the major stages will be streamed in full by the BBC at this year’s festival – well, almost all of them.

ARCTIC MONKEYS 22:15

With ATP's Deerhunter-curated weekend - their last ever UK summertime holiday camp festival - we thought it'd behoove us to shine a light on some of the less familiar names on the bill. Obviously Steve Reich, Tom Tom Club, Dan Deacon et al are unmissable, and Deerhunter themselves have grown into a formidable live krautprogpunk monstrousity that you really do need to see. But a big part of the joy of ATP is in finding something new as you stumble around with a pint of Newcastle Brown*. To whit:

BLUE ORCHIDS

Classic melodic post punk band lead by the founding guitarist of The Fall, Martin Bramah.

CAVERN OF ANTI-MATTER

Tim Gane of Stereolab's new, motorik derived project.

MICHAEL HURLEY

Wryly lovely folk, beloved of Cat Power, Devendra Banhart and Calexico. Hopefully on early on Sunday to restore any ravaged souls.

BLUES CONTROL WITH LARAAJI

Laraaji, famed for his stunning 70s electronic zither collaborations with Brian Eno, teaming up with Blues Control for densely atmospheric long form improv.

LONNIE HOLLEY

Improvised soulful crooning over abstract avant garde twitches and drones. could be utterly spellbinding.

And for good measure, here's Deerhunter leader Bradford Cox's mix tape for the event:

*literally the only good drink served on site

The next delivery from the Adult Swim Singles Program comes from promising Florida rapper Kitty.

‘Barbie Jeep’ sees the artist formerly known as Kitty Pryde survey the club and deem it full of losers, casting Harry Potter spells on her admirers over a loose beat of jumbled percussion.

The track is the second in this year’s singles giveaway by Adult Swim, the late-night channel from Cartoon Network, following ’36
