Occasional guests are just hosts you haven’t met yet – hence roving reporter David Tapley and resident pun hun Zara Hedderman are entrusted with control of the NO ENCORE juggernaut this week.

The band’s new album, Tranquillity Base Hotel & Casino, is certainly a giant leap – but in which direction?ACT THREE: Just a Ty Segall guy, the kind that missed the Chromatics’ style, someone who can get down with Mitski’s wild side, and with Saint Sister’s vibe. André 3000 rolled in there too, you’ve got the stars of our songs this week; S-O-T-WACT FOUR: Our Beck-spert host provides a guide to the ever-evolving Mr. Hansen, ahead of his 3Arena date – find the crack playlist right here.

ACT TWO: Protests and parties sit side-by-side on Janelle Monae’s Dirty Computer – but is the multi-hyphenate pushing the right buttons?ACT THREE: How to describe the Songs of the Week?
