Out February 20, 2026, “Tierra Rouge” finds Italian producer Aalex leaning into his signature mix of R&B, jazz, pop, and electronic textures, and the result is seriously intoxicating. Built around the haunting idea of a man catching the perfume of a woman he once loved while walking through a crowded…

“Taking Over” finds Birmingham-based singer, songwriter, and producer Christof Jennings stepping out from behind the console and into full-on leading-man mode, and he does it with the kind of slow-burning soul cut that was basically built for Valentine’s night. After years crafting tracks for others and building a résumé that…

“TURN UP” by Okaro makes its presence feel like a lightning strike in a summertime storm. As the song progresses, it dives into its rhythm‑driven world, setting a cheerful tone that feels like an invitation to move. Behind the name OKARO is Delia Okaro, a Swedish-Assyrian producer, songwriter, and artist…

Rich Delinquent writes diary entries on a flickering nightclub screen. The dark pop, emo-leaning alt-R&B, and electronic chaos braided into one neon confession. The Australian artist/producer has already blurred lines with collaborators like RMR, FRVRFRIDAY, phem, and Tyla Yaweh. On the EP Heartbreak Afterparty, he leans all the way into…

Northamptonshire’s Deekie is one of those UK Afrobeats names that’s been stacking wins. After a 2024 streaming bump (16,200 Spotify streams across 70 countries, 6,200 listeners) and radio love for “Kilofe” on BBC Radio Northampton’s Introducing Northants, plus extra spins for “Kilofe Remix” on Inspiration FM with an interview, he’s…

Josh Hicks’ “Talk Too Much” lands confidently, owning the room very casually. The 25-year-old Welsh singer has been quietly sharpening his craft for years, and here it shows, not just in his silky vocal control, but in how comfortably he balances charm, vulnerability, and bite. Raised on a heady mix…

After nearly two years of silence, QEERAN steps back into the frame with “CLOSER/HARDER,” and it doesn’t feel like a comeback so much as a deliberate reintroduction. Based in Melbourne, the artist returns sounding sharper, darker, and far more self-aware, channeling a period of withdrawal, healing, and reinvention into an…

Jag Energy Beats comes through with “Safe With Me,” a powerful R&B-inflected single that leans all the way into vulnerability. Based in Martinsburg, the US, Jag handles everything himself here—writing, producing, and performing—and that one-person intimacy really shows. There’s a clear emotional throughline rooted in the universal need to feel…

Vallejo’s A’shon Galaxy sits in that emotionally grey area, where feelings speak louder than actions in his latest single, “More Than Only Friends.” You can find jazz, soul, and smooth R&B capturing the ache of wanting something deeper with someone who insists on calling it “just friendship.” As the lead…

Ronnue leans fully into romance, nostalgia, and vocal confidence on I Love You All the mixes so Far. This EP is a love letter written in multiple fonts just to see which one hits hardest. Known for blending smooth 90s Pop/R&B DNA with a modern, independent polish, Ronnue dives deep…
