Joshua Sheppard – ‘Rolling Thunder’
Candian singer-songwriter Joshua Sheppard’s latest indie-pop offering ‘Rolling Thunder’ was inspired by an event from his childhood. The track hones in on the foundation of his love for music and creative ambitions. He distinguishes himself as a rising star in the music business with a combination of captivating imagery, deep lyrics, and elegant presentation techniques.
Miss Machina – ‘Talk’
Miss Machina’s collection showcases her creative and free-spirited attitude, and her unparalleled talent enables her to move fluidly between many genres. The new single “Talk” draws inspiration from grunge rock of the 1990s, 80s synth-pop, and 70s disco flair. This specific offering’s genre-blend highlights Miss Machina’s dynamism as a singer. She takes the production to a new level, bringing an exciting sound inspired by the nostalgic songs she grew up listening to.
Bonneville – ‘Undercover Woman’
This song perfectly captures Bonneville’s carefree creative spirit and openness to trying out novel sounds. They never stop looking for methods to represent the past more exquisitely, even if every note they play is a tribute to it. Although the sound isn’t quite vintage, it does evoke the feelings of the preceding generation for both men and bring back memories of the era of hand-crafted, “analogue” music that was performed from the heart. It’s a wonderfully flawed sound that entices you to follow along.
Babatell – ‘Selftalks’
Babatell’s brand-new album, Selftalks, documents an enigmatic journey of inner dialogues and sonic exploration. Over the course of the 12 tracks, he seamlessly merges elements of alternative hip-hop, electronica, and Afrofuturism. His works are a frenzy of experimentation in which echoing vocals, bass sounds, and synthesizers interact to create an environment that defies convention. He creates a sound that is immersive and lingers, whether it is through the pulsing beats of his production or the reflective echoes of his voice.
Beth Roars – ‘Power of the Wolf’
Scottish singer-songwriter Beth Roars’ brand-new single ‘Power of the Wolf’ is a ferocious and edgy pop song that explores the joyful darkness found in excess and pays homage to the wild spirit of nature. The genre-bending song combines pop, electro-pop, and chamber music with a moody, gloomy atmosphere. Piano, strings, brass (tuba, trombone, and cimbasso), and a ton of synthesizers are used in the production. As we take the first step into her musical journey, get ready to unleash the power within.

Soapman ‘Y. L. T. Y.’
Soapman’s “Y. L. T. Y.” doesn’t walk into the room—it kicks the door down with jittery guitars, caffeine-fueled vocals, and a tempo that refuses to sit still. It’s a wild, weird alt-pop ride that sounds like your inner monologue set to a mosh pit soundtrack, and somehow it’s both chaotic and incredibly catchy. If you’ve ever wanted to dance through an existential crisis, this one’s for you.
Shawn Matthew ‘Work To The Beat’
“Work to the Beat” feels like someone dropped a grenade in a rave—and we mean that as a compliment. Shawn Matthew’s new single is a reckless blend of gritty vocals, teeth-grinding bass, and trap drops that go full beast mode. It’s like a sonic rollercoaster with no brakes, and we’re grinning the whole way down.
Stephen Sol ‘Forever Changed’
Warning: “Forever Changed” may cause spontaneous staring out the window during a rainstorm, even if it’s sunny. Stephen Sol delivers a heartfelt indie folk gem that sounds like Ben Howard wandered into a candlelit therapy session. Equal parts soothing and soul-crushing, the track is a warm hug for anyone still emotionally invested in “what could’ve been.”
Peso The Misfit ‘New Age Love’
“New Age Love” by Peso The Misfit is like that cool friend who always smells good, gives great advice, and somehow turns every situation into a movie scene. Smooth R&B grooves meet hip-hop confidence in this flirty, laid-back track that’s built for warm nights, good company, and a little romantic chaos. Peso delivers a vibe that’s cheeky and charismatic, with just enough mystery to keep you hitting replay—and yes, there’s a line in here that’ll make you laugh out loud.
Zweng ‘Marianne’
Zweng’s Marianne is an achingly beautiful tribute to the maternal strength that often goes unnoticed. Written in honor of his mother, the track is a “persona” song that imagines what the partner she deserved—but never had—might have said. With tenderness and quiet grace, Zweng crafts a redemptive narrative, one that delves into the complex layers of generational pain, forgiveness, and love. The stripped-back arrangement lets his raw, emotive voice carry the weight of the song’s poignant message, while the subtle instrumentation adds a sense of timelessness to the track. Marianne is a soul-stirring meditation on healing and empathy, showcasing Zweng’s ability to transform personal experience into universal truth. It’s a song that quietly resonates, holding a mirror up to the often unspoken sacrifices of maternal love. Beautifully vulnerable and deeply reflective, Marianne is a standout moment in Zweng’s ongoing journey of self-discovery and artistic rebirth.
