Naud Takes Flight with ‘Un Gars Bian’: A Wild Ride of Music & Madness

After ten years of musical mischief, Naud has finally dropped anchor, or rather taken flight, with Un Gars Bian, an album that feels like a hug from an old friend and an impromptu dance party all at once. This high-energy, genre-mashing adventure blends alternative pop, electro, funk, and whatever else Naud felt like throwing into the mix. Think Marseille’s “joyous chaos” bottled up into soundwaves, bursting with playful unpredictability.
Leading things off is “Déjà Vu,” a sweet-and-sour love song about a romance that spanned across Europe but never quite took off, kind of like booking a first-class ticket to heartbreak. It’s got just the right mix of experimental vibes and catchy pop magic to make you groove while overthinking your past relationships.
The album title, Un Gars Bian, is a cheeky play on words, merging Marseille (city in France) slang for “seagull” (gabian) with “un gars bien” (a nice guy). It’s basically Naud in a nutshell: a free-spirited, big-hearted artist who wants to spread good vibes, reckless creativity, and a touch of joyful madness. And if that wasn’t enough, he’s also launched an Un Gars Bian t-shirt line, because what’s better than wearing your philosophy on your sleeve, literally? Grab yours here!
So, are you ready to embrace the joyful chaos? Un Gars Bian is the perfect excuse to dance like nobody’s watching and live life with a little more mischief. Let’s gooo!

Sid Dorey’s Middle Seat Is the Soundtrack to Surviving Your Twenties

If your twenties feel like a long, weird road trip with no GPS signal, Middle Seat is the album playing on loop from the auxiliary cord.
With their second EP, rising indie pop artist Sid Dorey has crafted something that sounds like growing pains, healing hugs, and that one late-night car ride where everything almost makes sense. Drawing on personal experiences with loss, strained family ties, and the complexities of queer love, Dorey’s latest project is a time capsule for a generation trying to piece itself together — without a manual.
Dorey’s lyricism is unflinching. On Unlovable, they take on the voice in your head that tells you you’re too broken to be loved. On What Comes With Heaven, they confront the fallout of religious trauma with eerie grace, creating a track that feels both sacred and defiant. These aren’t just songs — they’re survival anthems.
But it’s not all shadows. Middle Seat offers just as much warmth as it does weight. It’s about choosing who’s in your life. You can’t control everything, but you can control who’s around you. That’s power.
That message resonates deeply with their growing fanbase, many of whom first found Dorey through their viral TikTok performances — stripped-down moments of vulnerability that mirror the intimacy of the EP. Their authenticity has led to placements on Spotify’s New Music Friday and Apple’s New in Indie, but it’s clear Dorey is after something bigger than numbers: connection.
Sid Dorey isn’t just part of the next wave of indie pop — they’re shaping its emotional language. Middle Seat doesn’t pretend to fix everything, but it does something better: it reminds you that you’re not alone in the mess.
So next time you’re stuck in life’s middle seat, turn this on. It won’t solve your problems — but it might just help you stay.
