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.

Campana ‘ROPE’

Need something that hits the soul and the speakers? Campana’s “ROPE” is exactly that. Using love as a lifeline, the track wraps emotional vulnerability in lush production and a hook that begs for a slow head nod. It’s therapy disguised as a jam, with Dave Shanaé serving heavenly vocals and Dave B. dropping the kind of verse that deserves a rewind. This isn’t just a song—it’s your new late-night soundtrack.

Stephan Folkes ‘Somebody Out There’

With “Somebody Out There,” Stephan Folkes channels a thrilling blend of alternative rock, R&B, and soul into a spine-tingling tale of youthful curiosity gone awry. The track feels like a short film in audio form—rich in atmosphere, with vocals that carry both tension and tenderness. It’s a standout release from an artist who’s turning his unique life journey into a powerful, genre-defying musical identity.

Jake Exavier – ‘Just What U Like’

Jake Exavier’s ‘Just What U Like’ is a slow-burning R&B track that succeeds through its emotional clarity and polished production. Self-penned and subtly nostalgic, the song sees Exavier tapping into his influences — Chris Brown, PartyNextDoor, even shades of Donell Jones — while maintaining a personal, grounded tone. His vocals are restrained yet expressive, delivering a message of romantic certainty with both warmth and swagger. What elevates the single is its sonic craftsmanship: producers Rochad Holiday and Curtis “Sauce” Wilson lend a classic ’90s texture that feels fresh when filtered through Exavier’s contemporary lens. It’s not flashy, but that’s exactly the point — ‘Just What U Like’ makes its mark with nuance, sincerity, and an artist in full control of his sound.

Mimi’s Revenge ‘Dire’

‘Dire’ is like diving into a neon-lit dream where everything feels dangerously close to falling apart — and you love it. Mimi’s Revenge takes you on a ride with their sultry vocals, sharp beats, and a vibe that’s equal parts mysterious and magnetic. It’s the perfect anthem for those who thrive in the shadows, daring to feel it all with a slick, addictive soundtrack to match.

The Straights ‘Remedy’

If you ever wondered what happens when you combine garage rock grit with indie swagger, “Remedy” by The Straights has the answer. From the first crunch of the guitar to the final bang of the drums, this track is pure, unfiltered rock ‘n’ roll magic. The song’s lyrics are unapologetically raw, capturing the messy pursuit of healing through sound and sweat. It’s loud, it’s messy, and it’s everything you need when life gets chaotic — a perfect, rebellious anthem for anyone who just needs to let loose and rock out.
