Kim Gordon has shared a new song, titled ‘DIRTY TECH’.

Offering a critique of artificial intelligence and the use of some modern technology, the track retains the trap leanings of some of the material found on her past solo albums. In a statement about the song, Gordon said: “I was kind of musing about, is my next boss going to be an AI chatbot? We’re the first ones whose lights are going to go out – not the tech billionaires. It’s so abstract that people can’t comprehend.”

Watch a video for ‘DIRTY TECH’, made by director Moni Haworth, below.

Comprised of 12 tracks, PLAY ME is the follow-up to 2024’s The Collective, and was influenced, Gordon previously said, by “the news”, adding: “We are in some kind of ‘post empire’ now, where people just disappear.”

Matador will release PLAY ME on 13 March 2026.
