I have been listening to music since I can remember: every genre, every artist, every edgy and niche subculture.
I am a great listener: I take pride in discovering unheard gems, trying to connect with their authors.
It never gets old, really… somehow, music keeps hypnotising us, surprising us, always, always offering something new. Must be some sort of magic.
‘Pool’ serves as our point of entry into Kaela’s rich, vibrant artistic universe. Not that she needed an introduction: her previous work as a key live member of M83 and collaborations with the likes of Sofi Tukker, among others, have already made her a prominent creative figure in the music industry. Yet, ‘Pool’ helps us […]
Behind its quirky, playful dream-pop faćade, ‘I’ll stop when I’m done’ hides a great deal of introspection and lyrical research, a quality that well fits the nuanced artistry championed by Berlin-based creative EERA. The track anticipates the project’s upcoming album, increasing its momentum and cultural relevance. In fact, EERA has already been noticed by a […]
A bold political piece, ‘Delay Deny Depose’ takes a playful yet unapologetic approach to one of the most controversial events in recent US history, doing so with a nostalgic and catchy musical motif and a striking Mario Bros-style video. The event in question is the shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson last year, and with […]
Gearing up for a striking and lush upcoming EP, ‘Trophy Wife in Training’, ARI LEE unveils another piece of the puzzle, a slice of evocative and meaningful alt-pop that’s perhaps one of the most reflective and melancholic episodes in the aforementioned EP. Aptly titled ‘The One’, the song reflects on the utopic and idyllic idea […]
We nearly shed a tear when approaching ‘Sweetheart’. Driving an evocative and vulnerable listening experience, the record feels incredibly personal and cathartic, with an acoustic production that favours Avery Lynch’s elegant, nuanced vocals. The way she’s able to deliver such a heartwarming and emotional tone is one of the project’s main strengths, a quality that […]
It’s been just over a year since ‘Criminal’ was released, yet London-based songstress NORA doesn’t appear to have lost her artistic flair; if anything, she’s back with more of it. ‘i made my bed’ is a surprisingly good offering, a vulnerable, personal and relatable jewel sparking the beginning of a new musical era for the […]
A striking, lush and hard-hitting electro-pop effort, ‘Aura’ drives a fierce, slick listening experience, an eclectic blend of hyperpop, electronica and pop euphoria that’s a perfect match for Primo the Alien’s kaleidoscopic artistry. Hailing from Austin, TX, the talented songwriter, producer and overall visionary has so far enjoyed quite a phenomenal year, releasing a string […]
We have already met Greta Isaac’s lush pop alter-ego DOLLY ZOOM, and one thing is clear: fierceness and boldness are served up by the bucket. There’s a lot of truth to that; in ‘SOFT SCOOP TALKING DOG’, the project’s hypnotic and EDM-powered character was clearly on display. Now, Isaac is back with yet another banger, […]
We cannot verify whether fkblnde is actually a fake blonde, but what we can verify is the quality of her musical output, a verification she passes with flying colours. Seriously, she’s truly talented, as ‘In My Mind’ showcases. Hailing from Canada, the up-and-coming creative has long championed dynamic, club-oriented pop efforts with a sprinkle of […]
It’s time: Charlotte OC’s comeback EP is now between us. We welcomed her earlier this year, praising ‘God, We Tried’ as “offering the artist’s truths on a silver plate, allowing us all to connect with her pain and humanity”. That led to a deep dive into ‘Romeo’, described as “a slice of euphoria and fierceness”. […]
It’s easy to get lost in ‘My Easy Love’. You see, the track is incredibly hypnotic and evocative, blending a striking club-oriented character with a high degree of melodic relatability and escapism-driven sound design. It’s a lush nugget of paradise, a dancefloor filler that feels organic and soothing, carrying listeners on a cathartic aural journey, […]
‘Yi The Sun’ marks our point of entry into Yijia’s remarkable, cathartic artistic universe. A uniquely placed composition, the track seeks to unite the ancient sound of the Yi ethnic minority group from Southwestern China with Western club-oriented electronica, all with a generous amount of hazy, leftfield energy. The listening experience is unlike anything we […]
