Wings of Desire - Perfect World [Video]

British duo Wings of Desire released their gorgeous new single, “Perfect World.” Shoegazy strumming guitars without the dark mood, more like the urgency of Arcade Fire meeting the rocking confidence of Bruce Springsteen. Asked about their new single, Chloe Little and James Taylor, who together are Wings of Desire, say:

HÅN - Leave Me!

Italian singer, songwriter, and producer HÅN – Giulia Fontana in real life – has released a batch of extraordinary singles and EPs over the last five years. Some of it will be on her debut full-length, which will soon be released. The album’s latest single, “Leave Me!” shows HÅN moving from

Couch Prints - Impressions

Couch Prints - Impressions

Think yourself on a beach somewhere, listening to the waves crashing in. The magic push and pull is captured in Couch Prints‘ newest song, the beautifully bright “impressions.” And while the constant rhythm is soothing there’s also some fierce counter element to the calming part. Couch Prints, comprised of

TOVI - Mad Melancholia

“Mad Melancholia” is a song about dark thoughts in the dead of the night. Thoughts that you can’t push out of your head and that keep you from sleeping. The new song by Toronto-based musician Rebecca Emms aka TOVI packs much drama with pulsating synths and cinematic string arrangements.

Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard - A Passionate Life

Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard - A Passionate Life

Welsh glam rockers Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard release their debut album A Passionate Life and drop the final single and title track. “A Passionate Life” is surprisingly constrained for its lyrical title but engrosses us all the same. It’s very lovely. Speaking about “A Passionate Life,” vocalist and guitarist Tom

Freddy Madson - Hanging in the Air

Freddy Madson - Hanging in the Air

Becoming a young adult, dealing with all the possibilities but also boundaries when you’re in your twenties, has never been easy. Even more so when the world is grappling with a global, highly infectious disease. Danish pop-artist Freddy Madson muses about what he can and is willing to offer

Kayce Laine - Another Side [Premiere]

Sometimes you wake up in the morning and you have an idea in your mind – not in an abstract way, but something you have already lived through with intensity. It is amazing what the mind can do while asleep and Nashville-via-Brooklyn singer Kayce Laine takes this as a main inspiration

Prisma - I Never Wanted to Meet You

Danish sisters Frida and Sirid Møl Kristensen record under the name Prisma. Their latest song, “I Never Wanted To Meet You,” touches on a common theme in pop music: free yourself from people who hold you back. But they turn their candid breakup speech into an empowering anthem: sing along

Close to Monday - Together

Close to Monday - Together

Alex and Any of the European synth-pop duo Close to Monday create eclectic electro-pop made entirely with synthesizers. The focus on synthesizers creates a beautifully dense canvas on which Any’s whisper-soft vocals shine, lending the sound just enough substance to keep us grounded. The duo’s newest single “Together”

C'Est Karma - Bubblegum [Video]

This song is about friendship and is called “Bubblegum,” but don’t expect a cheesy pop tune from C’Est Karma, the musical project of Karma Catena. The Amsterdam-based singer/songwriter had a different kind of production in mind: her declaration of friendship is glitchy, dramatic, and messy like life

Far Caspian - Sun Room

Far Caspian - Sun Room

At home in Fermanagh, Northern Ireland but also often found in Leeds, U.K. songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Joel Johnston makes beautifully dreamy pop music under the moniker Far Caspian. With his latest single “Sun Room,” he once more combines elements of lo-fi, melodic bedroom-pop, shoegaze, and early 2000s indie

Warpaint - Champion

Warpaint - Champion

By now Californian band Warpaint is a phenomenon. At a time of solo artists and bands that are merely collectives around a single mastermind, they stuck together as a creative unit since 2004. Emily Kokal, Jenny Lee Lindberg, Stella Mozgawa, and Theresa Wayman defied all forces that could have driven

Cab Ellis - 3 Days Only

Cab Ellis - 3 Days Only

Quick, think about what can happen in three days? Or when was the last time you were truly excited for three days straight? Got something? Indie-rock five-piece Cab Ellis have just the song for us with their buoyant and simply gorgeous “3 Days Only.” The single marks the first taste

Tara Nome Doyle - Caterpillar [Video]

Tara Nome Doyle - Caterpillar [Video]

“Værmin” is a sweeping, beautiful album about a complex love story. While you probably don’t want to come too close to any of the animals the songs are named after, the bright, intricate soundscapes that Berlin-based artist Tara Nome Doyle creates, are something to indulge. “Værmin” is out tomorrow,

pecq - Too Far Gone [video]

pecq - Too Far Gone [video]

With their new single “Too Far Gone” and the accompanying video, Oxford-based duo pecq offer another piece of utterly fascinating art. “Too Far Gone” is hypnotizing: Jakes’ vocals floating light and airy above the strong, synthy melody held together by surprisingly heavy drum/bass lines. But it all works, and

Primer - Just A Clown

Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter Alyssa Midcalf aka Primer feels like “Just A Clown.” She describes a serious attack of the impostor syndrome that often comes along when you try to do something out of the ordinary. But setting this sentiment to swirling, bright synth-pop helps keep an inner nay-sayer in

Nilüfer Yanya - midnight sun

Nilüfer Yanya - midnight sun

With an intro that evokes Radiohead, “midnight sun” has my attention from the start. Additionally, a feeling of love and utter joy sets in once Nilüfer Yanya starts singing. How could I have missed out on this London-based singer/songwriter and guitarist until now? After all, the daughter of two

Sister Gemini - Elvira

Sister Gemini is an L.A.-based singer/songwriter who is about to release a series of songs this year. The new 22-year old started songwriting in high school in Michigan, but the songwriting craft of her debut single “Elvira” certainly elevates the track above your typical bedroom production. Catchy

Astrid - Through the Darkness Of Your Life [video]

Astrid - Through the Darkness Of Your Life [video]

When I listened to “Through the Darkness Of Your Life” for the very first time -and since then, many, many more spins happened- I had a quick look at my calendar to see what day it was. Nope, it’s not January 1968 but 2022, yet I gladly take this

Evie Balfe - According to Maybe

The new year is still young, so start it on the right foot with the empowering anthem “According to Maybe.” The London-based artist Evie Balfe draws from her own experience and encourages you to look beyond self-doubt and trust yourself. She adds comforting nostalgia to the song by wrapping her

Priestgate - Eyes Closed For The Winter [Video]

Priestgate - Eyes Closed For The Winter [Video]

“Eyes Closed For The Winter,” the new single by British five-piece Priestgate, serves as a brilliant mantra to sometimes accept life as it is. The beautifully calming melody and the re-assuring vocals make you instantly feel more comfortable, optimistic even. The catchy vibe of “Eyes Closed For The Winter” is

Josienne Clarke

Josienne Clarke - Workhorse [Video]

“This is the most joyous one” on the new record, says Scottish singer, songwriter, and producer Josienne Clarke about “Workhorse,” the second single from her upcoming EP “I Promised You Light.” The song’s theme is the light-hearted realization that one does not have to prove anything to be loved.

DBMK - Chains

Alt-pop duo DBMK offer another crazy catchy banger with “Chains,” their newest single. DMBK is the project of Kyle Knudsen (vocals) and Colton Ward (drums), who left Florida and now call Nashville their home. Wrapped in super pretty pop vibes, “Chains” hits some darker tones as well, because DBMK say:

Dead Leaf Echo - Milk.Blue.Kisses

We haven’t heard new music from Brooklyn indie rock trio Dead Leaf Echo in a while. Like many other musicians, their plans were derailed by the pandemic, and their third album was never released. But now they are finally back with a new six-song EP, “Milk.Blue.Kisses.and

Placebo - Try Better Next Time

Placebo - Try Better Next Time

With “Try Better Next Time,” Placebo offer the third track from their upcoming eighth studio album Never Let Me Go, out March 25, 2022. It is fascinating to hear, that Brian Molko‘s recognizable and gripping vocals have not lost their allure and with all due respect to Stefan Olsdal,
