Samuel Oscar ‘I Need Your Love’
“I Need Your Love” is a track from, Happy Ending Fantasy, his debut album. It puts the spotlight squarely on Samuel’s flawless vocals, enticing hooks, and remarkable ability to impact listeners emotionally through his music. Samuel has what it takes to enthrall audiences everywhere. The incredibly lovely melody alternates between his daydreams of living out his fairy tales and facing the reality of his quest to find the one he intended to spend the rest of his life with. It serves as a reminder that love—in all of its forms—is what truly makes life worthwhile and a monument to the fact that we all pursue true love despite the obstacles in our way.
Demi Jordanae ‘How Did We Get Here’ (Acoustic Version)
With a gradual and soaring voyage into the core of the original work, “How Did We Get Here” by Demi Jordanae, is an emotional acoustic release with a light ambiance. The song is a moving meditation on those unplanned life moments when you find yourself in a place you’ve always dreamed of being. The song’s lyrics encapsulate concepts of manifestation, visualisation, and the empowerment that comes from owning one’s fate.
The Violet Mine ‘Do No Harm’
The Violet Mine showcases their unique blend of rock and roll, alternative, and melodic indie-folk on their most recent compilation. White Night is an evocative tapestry that tackles themes of vulnerability, exploitation, and religion. It features elements of dream pop and new wave. “Do No Harm,” which was written during the COVID lockdown in New York, centres on the historical figure of the plague doctor. These incompetent medical professionals grifted the last of the sick individuals as they went from town to town. The villagers were warned that death was imminent by their appearance, which included a crude “respirator” made from a beak filled with plants to fight off bad air.
Sovereigns ‘Ghost’
The exciting new song “Ghost” from Sovereigns combines pop punk and indie rock elements. It is a perfect illustration of their approach, fusing upbeat songs with a steadily escalating guitar-led background. The track begins quietly with strummed guitars and muted drums, gradually building towards the distortion-heavy energy of its chorus with a sense of purpose and a melancholy undertone. This shows off the band’s youthful, relatable lyricism and yet, ability to craft mature musical ideas.
Archie – ‘Olivia’
A pivotal moment in Archie’s musical career is reached with “Olivia,” a lively and upbeat song that captures his development into a true sound and voice. It is a monument to his fortitude and artistic experimentation following the breakup of a committed relationship, turning into a joyful and hopeful song.

Walter Miller ‘Good Morning LA’
“Good Morning LA” is like being handed a hug in song form — one moment it’s whispering vulnerability, the next it’s belting arena-sized highs that make you want to throw your hands in the air. Walter Miller somehow makes heartbreak feel empowering, and catchy enough that you’ll probably replay it in the car five times in a row.
A Is For Atom ‘Out Of The Blue’
There’s something quietly addictive about “Out of the Blue.” It glides in with dreamy guitars and before you know it, you’re fully invested in this slow-burn, friends-to-lovers storyline. It’s the kind of track that makes you stare out a window for dramatic effect — even if you’re just on a bus. Effortlessly cool, a little sentimental, and seriously replayable.
DBsock ‘worse’
DBsock’s latest, “worse,” proves that less really can be more—especially when it comes to raw, self-aware alt-R&B. Sparse production? Check. Vocals dripping with emotion? Check. Lyrics that make you want to scream, cry, and hug your cat all at once? Triple check. By the end, you’re left in that deliciously uncomfortable place of loving someone who’s bad for you, and loving DBsock for capturing it so perfectly.
Heather Ferguson ‘Broken Horned Kudu’
“Broken Horned Kudu” is basically jazz-meets-world-music magic. With its blend of African percussion, lush vocals, and thoughtful storytelling, it’s the kind of track that makes you pause, smile, and maybe even hit repeat before the song’s over.
Marcello Cordova ‘You Got This’
Need a song that makes you feel like you can conquer literally anything? Enter “You Got This”. Marcello Cordova teams up with Evie Lizarraga for a track loaded with catchy hooks, halftime drums, and just enough synth sparkle to keep it interesting. By the end, you’re singing along, smiling, and maybe even tackling that project you’ve been putting off—all thanks to a three-minute dose of pure audio encouragement.
