Jack Garratt – Better
Quite a shift in style for Jack Garratt, but I’m here for it. I can’t figure what genre it is anymore; it’s just it’s own eclectic blend of introspective fun.
The new album, ‘Love, Death & Dancing’ will be released on June 12th on Island Records.
S+C+A+R+R – The Rest Of My Days
French disco has the unique ability to always surprise the world with incredible new talent. This release from SCARR is nothing short of euphoria.
Tessa Violet – Bored
Farrah – ID
“ID was written about feeling like you’ll never be quite enough for someone or something you think you desire, whether that be a person, group of people or career
path.”
New Music: nina
Track of the week. I can’t remember getting this excited about a Manchester talent for such a long time. A fine balance between RnB and indie – it’s just an effortlessly easy sound to connect with.
blackwave. – Bittersweet Baby
New Music: Lorrèn
An extremely catchy blend of neo-soul and jazz that’s full of character, matched with some powerful vocals.
Dua Lipa – Hallucinate
Another week on lockdown and I am psyched to make this week as positive as possible. So with that in mind… Some Dua Lipa for you.
Tate McRae – you broke me first
“”you broke me first” is a really special song to me. This song is about someone in a relationship who couldn’t care less for the other person and then six months later decides to crawl back. It’s the feeling of knowing how much they meant to you, but this time not letting them back in. I hope everyone can connect to this song like I do.”
Strandels – Talking To The Moon
”’Talking To The Moon’ is about all your inner demons that you’re always struggle with. In our case it’s about not feeling comfortable with opening up fully to a real person, so you turn to the moon (like a metaphor of talking to nothingness) and that you never get an answer.”
Troi Irons – Miss U Now
New Music: Tuure Boelius
Entirely sung in Finnish and yet this is just too great not to share with you. It’s a mix of bubblegum pop and a very hard electro sound.
Balcony – He Don’t Trust Me
“He Don’t Trust Me is about the paranoia and jealousy that comes with loving someone who is in an unhappy relationship. Written from the perspective of the person outside the relationship.”
Bishara – R U 4 Real
New Music: Jolianne
Blissfully charming mellow pop and RnB from the Philippines.
“It tells about being happy or naturally ‘intoxicated’ without alcohol.”
New Music: Cal Maro
Adam Rom – You & Me (feat. àB)
“‘You & Me’ signifies the start of a more R&B/Jazz influence over my new work. Musically it’s more mature, the lyrical content is more personal than ever and You & Me starts this.”
Boy Harsher – Electric
Because technically it’s the weekend (albeit in lockdown), and any time is a good excuse to enjoy techno.
