Hozho ‘ID’
The newest track ‘ID’, by Portuguese electronic music producer and DJ Hozho, is a wild outburst of energy that explores primitive instincts. The pulsating beats beckon listeners to go on a crazy musical adventure by vividly reflecting the raw core of human wants. Excerpted from his recently released EP, “PSYCHE,” he presents a fully immersive experience that challenges listeners to face the intricacy of their ideas, transcending the typical bounds of his style.
The Maverick Band ‘A Lonely Homeless Christmas’
The Maverick Band recorded ‘A Lonely Homeless Christmas’ in support of HRH Prince William’s initiative to end homelessness, with all proceeds going to homeless organizations. John Cristal conducted extensive research to understand the various facets of homelessness; this was incredibly disturbing and eye-opening. He is really hopeful that after hearing it, people would be inspired to support the many homeless charities, which carry out amazing work. All proceeds from the song’s sales will be donated to various big and small charities.
Attic‘O’Matic ‘Thoughtless’
‘Thoughtless’, the most recent song from Brighton’s five-piece Attic’O’Matic, is an engrossing offering. A distinctive combination of jazz, post-punk, and electronica creates a new and thrilling track. The song’s rhythmic shift occurs at the halfway point when the band’s post-punk edge is further explored with choppy guitar rhythms and live percussion that propel the song forward with a sense of driving urgency before the wonderfully atmospheric and floating finale brings the song to a close. It features the band’s most masterfully composed song to date.
Silas Funk ‘Backwards’
The new song by visionary musician Silas Funk, ‘Backwards’, is a powerful one. He displays his cutting-edge method of producing music, creating a sound that defies expectations. This exceptional music was created in the private setting of his home studio and happened by accident. ‘Backwards’ is an audacious statement of this progress, offering a taste of the creative mastery to come on his much-anticipated first album, ‘Sugarfixx.’
Jim Bell ‘22 Years Old’
The lively song ‘22 Years Old’, by London singer-songwriter Jim Bell, captures a distinctive fusion of folk and indie elements. The song demonstrates his talent for creating evocative, honest lyrics and comforting audio environments. His upbeat vocal performance gives the song a naturally catchy topline that contrasts with the thoughtful, melancholy lyrics.

The Neon Sea ‘As I Wonder’
The Neon Sea didn’t just arrive; they stormed in with ‘As I Wonder’, a track that drips with atmospheric charm and sheer ambition. The song is a masterclass in blending influences—think Stone Roses grandeur meets Pink Floyd’s introspection—but it never loses its originality. Doyle’s lyrics float like smoke in a dream, grounding the cosmic production with raw humanity. Add in the personal touch of abstract artwork by Doyle’s son, and this single is more than music—it’s a bold, cohesive work of art.
Fitasha ‘FAMOUS’
Fitasha’s RUSH is an electrifying manifesto of self-determination, with ‘FAMOUS’ standing as its defiant opening roar. Her “villain song” isn’t just about biting back—it’s about commanding the room and rewriting her narrative. From its jazz-hip-hop fusions to its Latin inflections, RUSH feels like a pulsating heartbeat of resistance and ambition, a vibrant push against the limits others set for her. If you’re into artists who walk the line between bold and vulnerable, Fitasha’s layered lyricism and sonic adventurousness are here to grab you by the collar and demand your attention.
Lauri Järvilehto’s “Typhoon”
Lauri Järvilehto’s “Typhoon” hits hard with its mix of emotional depth and sweeping soundscapes. It’s the kind of song that grabs you right from the start, pulling you into the storm and propelling you through it with its uplifting energy and heartfelt lyrics. The track feels personal yet universal, perfectly capturing the chaos and beauty of navigating life’s challenges. Whether you’re listening for the mood or the message, “Typhoon” delivers a captivating experience that’s impossible to forget.
Josh Rifkin ‘Save it For The Morning’
Lifted from Josh Rifkin’s latest album, Lancaster Road, ‘Save it For The Morning’ is a testament to the art of crafting infectious, soulful pop. Its opening lines grip you with a confident swagger—vocals warm with a timeless flair, lyrics painted in vibrant, relatable storytelling. There’s a natural magnetism in the upbeat groove, a blend of old-school soul and contemporary charm. The track’s hook is an earworm in its own right, but what sets it apart are the intricate verses, peppered with crisp musicianship and surprise melodic turns. It’s a surefire standout to kickstart the album.
Jean-Loup Pinson ‘Tell All The Truth/Surrender’
Jean-Loup Pinson’s ‘Tell All The Truth/Surrender’ is a masterstroke of modern composition, boldly bridging centuries of artistry. In this standout track from A Moment of Deathlessness, Pinson pairs the haunting choral beauty of The Carice Singers with the hard-hitting spoken word of London poets Armanious and Tanaka Fuego. Dickinson’s timeless themes of truth and surrender become visceral and urgent in Pinson’s hands, carried by a production that seamlessly layers ethereal vocals with futuristic beats. The result is a track that feels revolutionary yet deeply human, cementing Pinson’s place at the forefront of contemporary musical storytelling.
