You get some serious Summer Happy Hour vibes with the elegantly chill electronic dance song “In Your Eyes.” High-profile Australian producer Mild Minds collaborated with edapollo for the track.
“‘Pumped Up High’ is about the joy of not being perceived in an environment where you’re welcome.” The Austrian duo Leyya wraps this somewhat abstract sentiment into a catchy, high-energy electro-pop song, plus a bizarre video about some illegal future extreme sports:
The Californian musician Allie Nixon chose the name Pool Girl as a hommage to her immigrant grandfather who started his new life by cleaning swimming pools. In her new dreamy, glittering synth-pop song “I Liked It,” she sings about the value of casual relationships. “Acknowledging that though they may not be true intimacy, there is a worthwhile light heartedness and playfulness in exploring curiosities,” Allie says.
Driving indie rock is at the heart of the music of Shannon Delores O’Neill, who makes music in Northern Ireland as Sister Ghost. Her new track “Dark Matter” is “influenced by some of my favourite big-sounding 80s bands like Simple Minds, Tears for Fears, The Call etc.” and what is not to love about that.

The Canadian singer/songwriter Dylan Menzie loves writing and performing music. However, this does not lead to an easy and mellow life for many reasons. So he wrote “Strong Enough,” his own pick-up song, to remind himself and his listeners why it is worth following your heart.
Hope Tala says that she “kept gravitating towards upbeat, intense songs that would be fun to sing on stage.” She succeeded in that endeavor with her latest single, “Bad Love God.” While she calls it a “dramatic tale,” it is actually an upbeat song that engages and uplifts you.
Super-catchy, upbeat, and empowering – the new song “Don’t Mess Around Honey”, by US-born, London-based artist Isla Rose tackles cheating and how to bounce back stronger from such a blow to one’s self-esteem.
