The veteran producer Danger Mouse has made music with a million people over the years. Last year, for instance, he reunited with an old collaborator, Yeah Yeah Yeahs leader Karen O, to release the single “Super Breath.” Today, Danger Mouse releases a single with a new collaborator: MorMor, the Toronto indie artist who released the debut album Semblance in 2022.

Don’t sleep on the new album from São Paolo singer, songwriter, and model Gab Ferreira. Her music merges Brazilian traditions like bossa nova and Tropicália with an eclectic mix of modern sounds on the indie-to-pop spectrum, coming away with something dreamy and sophisticated.
