Lund – Moon

California singer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Lund returns today with a song to mark the release of his debut EP, ‘Project of a Person‘.

With over 3 million monthly listeners on Spotify alone, Lund has amassed a legion of fans through his unique and emotive approach to hip hop. Speaking on the EP, he says:

“Perfection doesn’t exist, we are all projects. Puzzles with missing pieces we are forever searching for. Not because we aren’t capable of being whole with who we are but because we can always be a better version of ourselves. I have put so much of me into this body of work and I’m beyond ready to share it with you.”

Yseult – BAD BOY

Yseult has been a mainstream talent in her homeland of France for a good while now.

And while music in the French language doesn’t always carry through easily to countries that don’t speak the language, this release has been considerable attention across the continent.

It’s a stunning song that is beautiful exactly as it is; even if you aren’t able to understand the lyrics!

Claudia Valentina – 4:15

Claudia Valentina is rapidly becoming one of the UK’s most exciting prospects, with her bold and confident approach to pop that shows she is ready to take on the world!

“No matter how many times you tell yourself not to go there, when that knock on your door comes, you can’t help yourself. It’s an anthem for anyone familiar with those late night ‘u up’ texts.”

James Vincent McMorrow – Gone

A total shift in sound for James Vincent McMorrow; this track is a bold take on indie-pop, with an almost epic-like cinematic essence.

“’Gone’ is about the disintegration of relationships. In my case, the disintegration of my relationship with myself. No song or lyric I’ve ever written has come as close to this one at capturing how I feel about life, how I hear it, my fear of it, my obsession with it, my belligerent belief that I can control it, my quiet acknowledgment in the middle of the night that I will never control a single thing. And there’s nothing wrong with any of it. There’s absolute beauty in embracing the chaos and the decay. I know I was exhausted pretending everything was all right.”

NIIVA – All In

Canada-based talent NIIVA returns today with a track to celebrate the release of her debut EP.

‘All In’ is finessed RnB sound that looks at those moments when you fall for someone, but hold yourself back unless you get the same in return.

Taken from the debut EP ‘NIIVA’ which is out now.

Rose Gray – Save Your Tears

Rose Gray’s new release takes inspiration from 90s dance music, all the while still sounding incredibly fresh.

“Crying on the banks of the Thames… dancing through London Town… escaping everyday’s madness. I love 90s dance music – the soulful melodies, the samples, the orchestra elements, break beats and somehow entwining all these elements and bringing it into the 21st century became my mission for this song.”

Taken from the upcoming EP ‘dancing, drinking, talking, thinking’ which is due in January 2021.

WizTheMc – All My Friends Are Stoned

I’ve really lost count of the number of times that I have posted music from WizTheMc, but the truth is I just can’t get enough from this Berlin-based talent.

Every release comes with a fresh perspective, and this track is no different; it’s a playful and fun slice of indie pop that is guaranteed to bring a smile to your face.

Eryn Martin – Who Wouldn’t

The last time I featured Canadian singer and songwriter Eryn Martin a few years ago, she was seemingly a totally different talent to the one that I am experiencing now.

Back then it was a sophisticated and minimal sound, while now we are being treated to a bold, dark and intense take on pop that is guaranteed to get your heart racing. Talk about versatility!

Sam DeRosa – Sad Faces

The NY-raised and LA-based pop talent that is Sam DeRosa has just released a single that features lyricism which I think everyone on the planet can relate to right now.

“With ‘Sad Faces,’ I wanted to make the song sound upbeat and happy while I talked about something difficult… I think as a songwriter who’s now an artist, I’m learning to accept things I cannot change and to not worry too much about things being perfect. The mess is the fun part and my journey’s been a wild one, but it’s mine, so it’s awesome and I’m thankful for it.”

Taken from the upcoming debut EP ‘The Medicine’ which is due on 13th November via Monument Records.

Bathe – Better Off

A heavenly slice of finessed RnB from the NY-based outfit who are sure to win your heart over with their unique approach to the genre.

“We’ve been calling it Surf R&B, just songs you can lie in the sand with your toes in the water to.”
