Todd Kowaluk ‘Enough Is Enough’

Vancouver singer-songwriter Todd Kowaluk has been working on his unique brand of indie folk for a  number of years, using 90s-influenced indie rock and pop with a higher message since his debut EP Love Can Set Us Free. He returns with his brand-new single ‘Enough Is Enough’. A track which he credits a significant degree of importance. For him, it represents a milestone in his life, musically, spiritually and career-wise.  

Sam Segurado ‘Phoenix’

Irish-Portuguese solo artist Sam Segurado releases his brand-new single ‘Phoenix’ showcasing the foundation of his love for music and unmatched talent for fusing captivating instruments with profound lyricism. The track sees him blend of alternative-indie-folk on this acoustic offering. Interplaying guitar and piano with his delicate vocal delivery atop a lush synthscape, its lyrics evoke the line he so often treads between romance and sorrow.

Bestial Mouths ‘The Knife’

‘The Knife’, which is taken from Bestial Mouths most recent album, R.O.T.T. (inmyskin), is a deep dive into trauma pop that begs to be danced to. It draws you into that emotional vortex of shared ekstasis, which is as accessible as death, while continuously drawing you back into the darkness of reality and teetering toward the light.

Queen Bitch ‘Bones’

Queen Bitch’s debut single ‘Bones’ is a shattering, cymbal and guitar-heavy fury, the song is an upbeat celebration about mending, regaining one’s strength, and losing trust before finding great trust, beginning with a fierce scream. The genre-blend of pop-rock, alternative-rock, and grunge mixes incredibly showcasing her signature sound on record. The hard-hitting production on ‘Bones’ features electric guitar, bass, and drums, along with gravelly and raspy vocals. The energised instrumentation paired with victorious vocals draws the listener in immediately.

Addessa ‘Mirame’

Emerging music artist Addessa was raised surrounded by a rich tapestry of Latin traditional music, the energetic sounds of the ‘80s, and the soulful melodies of the ‘90s pop and R&B. Her brand-new single ‘Mirame’ is about loss, losing someone you love, whether in a romantic or platonic way. It is an expression of my personal experiences and emotions. It’s raw and honest.

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.
