HJ Soul ‘Girl On The Train’

With his dreamy new track ‘Girl On The Train’, R&B and soul singer-songwriter HJ Soul, who has captured fans’ hearts with his soulful voice and thought-provoking lyrics, makes a comeback. The track’s premise describes how life can sometimes move at an extremely rapid pace. There’s also a romantic vibe to the song. You can’t stop thinking about this pretty girl you saw on the train but couldn’t talk to.

Noa Sorele ‘Playlist’

Noa Sorele is a London-based singer-songwriter whose latest single ‘Playlist’ is a heart-wrenching bop. The production features a genre-blend of alternative-pop, adult-contemporary, and indie-pop alongside her captivating vocals. The song tackles serious subjects like despair, desperation, and the illusory desire to remember someone who has gone through music. 

MORIS BLAK + Nyxx + Static Starlight ‘FERAL’

‘FERAL’ is a furious, dark techno song that showcases the vocal and lyrical diversity of both performers. It features a dynamic blend of dance, dark club, and house music, with sound components derived from digital and electronic composition. They worked on the music for several years, both remotely and digitally, until they decided a voice would really make the song come to life. To get on the song, MORIS BLAK made a connection with Nyxx. They hit it off right away, and Nyxx used her previous struggles in the business to inspire her raw and insane lyrics.

Ruby Cannon ‘Call Home’

Ruby Cannon’s debut EP ‘Ruby and the Cannons’ is an exceptional release. The stand-out track ‘Call Home’ is a heartwrenching bop. The opening riff of the track sounds raw and charged with an established sound. The genre-blend of indie, surf-rock, desert, and 70’s sound with an energetic vibe present alongside her captivating vocals, truly showcases she’s an artist to watch.

The Maverick Band ‘Christmas Is Coming’

With proceeds going to homeless charities, The Maverick Band released ‘Christmas Is Coming’ in support of HRH Prince William’s goal to reduce homelessness. ‘Christmas is Coming’ is a happy, family-oriented Christmas song that I originally penned, according to singer-songwriter John Cristal of The Maverick Band. The song is about all the customs families follow up with each other before Christmas.

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.
