Two old favorites returned to the top of our list in Hanni El Khatib and William Ryan Fritch. Fritch’s path was a bit longer since we missed the release of two albums this year. To atone we gave him a place in our July 22nd Fresh Cuts and his music did not disappoint. Enjoy our recommendations for the week below!

Honorable Mentions are songs that also get votes, but don’t quite make the songs of the day.

The Curator Picks: ReFresh playlist will be reloaded with our selections as soon as we finish voting. If you’re too impatient for that, or just like to explore on your own, the Fresh Cuts: ReFresh list is the one for you. The Fresh Cuts list is our selection of 60+ tracks from new EPs and LPs on Spotify that we review to pick our favorites. You can also keep track of the songs of the day for the whole year here, or revisit our picks from 2015 and 2014.
