Friday Goes Feral, Then Floats Somewhere Far Beyond It
Jain’s “Kill It With The Beat” and James Ellis Ford’s “The Ever After” give Friday two very different exits. Jain comes in all pulse, muscle and forward motion; Ford answers with something more reflective, expansive and quietly existential.
Two tracks. Two discoveries. One daily detour.

Jain
Tune: Kill It With The Beat
WHY IT CAUGHT OUR EAR
“Kill It With The Beat” reconnects Jain with the harder rhythmic instincts that made her earliest work so immediate, but pushes them toward something more electronic, physical and club-facing. Released July 1, the track is short, sharp and built around momentum — the kind of song that gets in, does its damage and disappears before the room has time to cool down.
James Ellis Ford
Tune: The Ever After
WHY IT CAUGHT OUR EAR
James Ellis Ford goes in the opposite direction with “The Ever After,” stretching out across more than five minutes and letting the mood breathe. The track appears on his 2026 album Lost In Another World, a record shaped during a serious health crisis and threaded with questions of mortality, memory and what remains after the moment passes. Heavy subject, beautifully weightless delivery.
