Electro-pop artist Santigold has shared a brand new track called “Radio”—her contribution to the official Paper Towns soundtrack. It’s a soaring pop romp with heavy drum machine hits, Santigold’s distinct vocals, and a big, appropriately cinematic chorus.

This new track comes ahead of Santigold’s third album, which is due out later this year. The as-yet untitled LP is the followup to 2012’s Master of My Make-Believe.

Paper Towns is an adaptation of a YA novel of the same name by John Green, the author who penned The Fault in our Stars. The film’s official soundtrack is out July 10th on Atlantic, and features contributions from Vampire WeekendTwin ShadowHAIMSon Lux, The Mountain Goats, and The War on Drugs. See the full tracklist and artwork below.
