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.

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.
