New York songwriter Eshan Agarwal has always had a knack for making feelings sound cinematic, but “The Siren” (released Jan 23, 2026) is where he stops looking at love through soft-focus glass and starts staring straight into the undertow. Working with producer Marrick Smith via the Biscuit Head Collective, and…

Medberg’s stuff moves, glitches, flirts, and occasionally shoulder-checks you in the best way. “Mirrorfield” is a perfect snapshot of that electronica vibe. It’s colourful and playful, packed with dreamy chords and jagged little textures, switching between warm and cold like mood lighting in a sci-fi diner. If you like your…

Asheville’s Pretty Little Saturday (Kristi Knupp) has finally grabbed the mic. After a run of singles through 2025, her debut Long Overdue (out Jan 20, 2026) lands like a personal archive cracked open, with indie-pop that’s lushly electronic but still warm-blooded. You can hear the photographer’s eye in the songwriting…

Gorseinon, Wales, might not scream “time machine to 1968,” but Karl Ian James, aka The K.I.J Experience, clearly keeps one parked in his Music Room. Dropping on February 14, 2026, “Life (You saved me)” is his fully self-built follow-up to “Best Friend,” and it’s powered by that late-60s melodic glow…

Kaliopi & The Blues Messengers are clearly in that sweet spot right now: seasoned enough to sound effortless, hungry enough to still swing for the fences.

Deptford Sound Collective moonwalks in the room for a quick dance. Hailing from South East London, this loose-knit crew of musicians, artists, and community activists debuts with “Give Me. Give Me . Give Me, I want it all”, a disco-fuelled parody that looks shiny on the surface but bites hard…

Metz, France, isn’t the first place people name-drop when they’re talking “big, bold rock singles,” but Dan Szyller clearly didn’t get that memo. Teaming up with full producer Yannick Horner, he dropped “Journey to the Moon” on February 3, 2026, and it lands like an adrenaline shot for anyone doom-scrolling…

Fresh off the momentum of HOPE (November 2025), SLAPPER comes back swinging—well, gliding—on “Into the Light”, a February 6, 2026 drop that doesn’t need lyrics to say something real. He’s carved out a niche where synthwave nostalgia, synthpop sheen, and melodic techno drive all melt into one cinematic lane, and…

Montreal-based pianist/composer Pat Piperni is sitting you down in a quiet room, turning the lights low, and letting a single piano tell the truth on “Quiet Storm” (released December 23, 2025).

London-based Italian composer Alessandro Inglima has spent years living in that sweet overlap between music and film, and with his project Komok, he finally dives headfirst into electronic territory—no safety rails, just curiosity, groove, and a love of weird textures.

Santiago’s Chroma Noir, Mauricio Solari on vocals and Mario Castro steering the synth machinery, are building a slick little corner of noir synth-pop where darkwave mood meets pop momentum. After “Burned Into My Mind” put them on a few radars, they level up with “Black Rain”, a mid-tempo new wave…
