‘Poison Rain’ opens with the kind of quiet that feels deliberate, the sound of a song built to sit with you rather than rush past you… Nanseera, the Nashville-based singer-songwriter raised between London, Uganda and Ethiopia, has crafted a track that wears its politics openly without ever losing its intimacy. FOLLOW: THREADS | INSTAGRAM | TIKTOK | FACEBOOK | LINKTREE WEBSITE | SPOTIFY | YOUTUBE | APPLE MUSIC | BANDCAMP Written after the US Supreme Court’s ruling to signifi

As a statement of arriving at a new creative era, ‘Teenage Popstar’ is both empowering and genuinely moving. Mya Angelique is an artist well worth watching closely! The track follows the emotional journey of a young person balancing ambition, self-doubt and the desire to belong, offering a candid look at how dreams, expectations and self-image shape the teenage experience with a specificity that prevents it from tipping into the merely generic. “‘Teenage Popstar’ is about wan

‘Holdin On’ was born from that birthday, and from the ache of rereading that final message a hundred times afterward. The single serves both as tribute and reflection, channelling through music the specific grief of losing someone who understood you, the irreplaceable weight of a friend who had been one of the biggest supporters of Pannella’s music even when he was still an amateur who did not yet sing. Thomas always encouraged him. Pannella waited until last year to finally

On stage, Eon Awa delivers performances defined by elegance, emotional intensity and a commanding presence. Drama captures exactly that quality in recorded form: a body of work that balances intimacy with theatricality at every turn! Switzerland’s contemporary music landscape does not often generate artists with the kind of theatrical pop ambition and emotional range that Eon Awa brings to Drama, his latest body of work, and the six-track release firmly establishes him as one

For fans of Billie Eilish, Tate McRae, AURORA and Tove Lo, Huldra is an invitation to reconnect with the wild parts of ourselves that were never meant to be hidden. An astonishing debut that fully justifies the decade-long wait! In Norwegian, Swedish and German folklore, the huldra is a forest spirit of extraordinary and dangerous beauty: irresistible, powerful, impossible to control, her hollow back and cow’s tail signalling the complexity that made her simultaneously desire

A.fter I.ntelligence represents the fullest realisation yet of that creative philosophy, the cinematic depth and sonic precision developed through the Reznor and Ross collaboration brought to bear on subject matter that could not be more urgently contemporary. Experimental electronic music as genuine philosophical intervention: challenging, immersive and genuinely necessary! The album centres on the existential risks posed by humanity’s accelerating development of artificial

“I don’t write lyrics down,” Riconoflow explains. “I compose everything in the moment, so the transitions between languages happens naturally. That’s just how my brain works.” Find Riconoflow: Instagram, Spotify That spontaneous, instinctive approach to bilingual songwriting, moving naturally between English and Portuguese without boundaries or formulas, gives ‘U Ain’t The Only One’ the quality of something discovered rather than crafted: immediate, emotionally direct and ent

If you’re going to release a song you wrote as a teenager, it had better be good. Cat Ryan’s is very good indeed… FACEBOOK | INSTAGRAM | X | SPOTIFY PRESS PHOTOS BY ELLEN DIXON | COVER PHOTO BY MARY-ANNE MURPHY ‘Free From This’ is technically the Newcastle four-piece’s debut single, but it is also something more interesting than that — it is the song that made Mary-Anne Murphy realise what kind of artist they wanted to be. Written back in 2018 and played live for years before

There's a particular kind of pride that comes with watching a local name step into the spotlight after years of standing just off it, and that's exactly what's happening with Wayne Banks right now. You'll know the name even if you don't quite know it yet: the Nottingham bass player has spent decades on stages and in studios behind some seriously big names, and today he's finally releasing music under his own. We're thrilled to be premiering 'World We Share', the first single

Behind Every Swipe, There Is Also Biology. What if your dating profile isn’t the only thing making decisions? That’s the playful premise behind MirrorMouth’s latest single, ‘My Genes Are Shouting’, an alternative pop release inspired by evolutionary biology and one of humanity’s oldest mysteries: attraction. Rather than treating romance as something entirely spontaneous or culturally constructed, the song explores whether our preferences may also have been shaped by millions

Here is the thing about ‘Sex Sold Politics’: it should not work as a pop single, at least not by conventional metrics. It blends contemporary pop with tribal rhythms and healing frequencies and shamanic soundscapes and a central argument about feminine power and softness as strength. On paper that sounds like a lot to hold. In practice it holds everything with remarkable ease, and the result is one of the more genuinely distinctive releases of the year so far. German artist L

UK country music has spent years trying to find its footing, torn between reverence for the Nashville blueprint and the desire to be something distinctly its own… London-based singer-songwriter Marta is one of the artists quietly solving that problem, and ‘In Another Life’, her latest single, is a convincing demonstration of exactly how she is doing it. Facebook | Instagram | YouTube The song started with one line: “you were the love of my life in another life.” From there, M

With England back on the world stage tonight, the timing couldn’t be better for Impact Sound Lab’s new track ‘Rise Up England (We Shall Never Surrender).’ It’s a proper football anthem: big guitars, thunderous drums, soaring chorus… the sort of thing that sounds like it was built for a stadium full of fans in full voice. Behind the project are David Matheson and Norm Sabourin, two producers and songwriters with serious combined experience across pop, rock, country and hip-hop

The title of Gab Gordon’s latest single functions as both description and instruction, and the track delivers on both counts with a discipline and atmospheric intelligence that marks it as one of the more fully realised dream-pop releases of recent months. Instagram, Website, Spotify Featured on her EP The Pretty Bazaar, ‘Slowburn’ is exactly what it claims to be: a track built from restraint and patience, trading instant gratification for the kind of emotional weight that on

The melodic and progressive house space has developed a sophisticated vocabulary for a particular kind of emotional experience: the late-night feeling of existing between states, where nostalgia and presence occupy the same moment and stillness and movement are somehow indistinguishable. Danish producer FAVNA has been developing his own contribution to that vocabulary across a catalogue that has accumulated over 700,000 streams and earned support from respected artists and in

There is a version of French pop that exists purely as aesthetic: the beret, the cigarette, the existential shrug, the whole studied apparatus of cool deployed in service of not very much. And then there is the real thing, rooted in the chanson tradition, where the song is a vessel for actual thought and actual feeling and the lyric carries genuine weight. Sylvain Zebo belongs emphatically to the second category, and ‘Test’, his latest single, is another demonstration of why.

Virginia-based post-punk quintet Dayfiction have been building toward something with considerable purposefulness, and Divine Intermission, their new EP, arrives as the fullest and most urgent expression yet of what that something is. Recorded in the days immediately preceding vocalist Evan Solomon’s temporary relocation to London, the project carries the specific weight of a record made at a threshold: the particular clarity and desperation that arrives when you know somethin

The title of Carlotta Schmidt’s sophomore album is both the most honest thing an artist can put on a record cover and the most universally relatable. Overthinker: ten tracks, entirely self-written, entirely self-produced, composed on a 1979 Guild D55 acoustic guitar on a bedroom floor, and shaped by a period of life that contained more significant personal change than most people experience across a decade. Coming out. Devastating loss. Working with heroes. All of it swirling
