“Scroll My Life Away” by The Radio Addicts might just be the anthem for a generation growing up with the world in one hand and their phone in the other. At just 14, 14, 12, and 11 years old respectively, Luke, Daniel, Vincent, and Jonathan have delivered a disarmingly raw,…

BARON’S “Doesn’t Really Matter” is part existential spiral, part theatrical fever dream, and all wonderfully unhinged. The French glam-rock duo delivers a late-night monologue set to a kaleidoscope of piano flourishes, flutes, thudding percussion, and the sardonic poetry of someone both deeply bewildered by the world and oddly at peace…

Roots of Blues by Karim Albert Kook & Édouard Bineau is a living, breathing walk through the dusty, sweat-soaked avenues of American music history, told through the lens of two musicians whose cultural journeys mirror the blues’ own restless migration. Across twelve tracks, the duo offers reverent yet reimagined takes…

GINAxC gets down and dirty in her latest single, “Put Your Mouth to Work (Shut Up).” This is Velvet Club Pop in its purest, boldest form. Now what is that?

With his signature warmth and grounded charm, Clark returns with a summery anthem that trades the noise of modern pop for something richer, more joyful, and unapologetically wholesome.

“All I Need” by Jermaine Fleur is a lush, euphoric summer anthem, tailor-made for late-night drives, glowing sunsets, and whispered hopes for a love that hasn’t quite arrived—yet. The Amsterdam-based pop and R&B artist has produced a sensually grounded and cosmically dreamy sound with retro-inspired disco grooves amidst modernity. Produced…

Laguna’s latest single, “Sweetlips,” is a gloriously raw trip through psychedelic fuzz and analog grit, served with just the right amount of weird. Fronted by James Guida, the Geelong-based mastermind behind the project, Laguna’s sound is a throwback to the heavy, chaotic grooves of the ’60s and ’70s. With “Sweetlips,”…

F.O.M.O by Tarn PK captures the mental static of modern life, through burnout, self-comparison, and existential fatigue. Across six tracks, the Wellington-based producer and singer-songwriter lives in the constant fear of missing out, circles it, and finally exhales into something like peace. The opening track and namesake, “F.O.M.O”, has the…
