Find the latest new music in our ‘Top 5’ weekly music round-up here at We Speak Media. In this weekly feature, we will be bringing you the hottest new acts and music out there.
Sophia Tice ‘WAY OUT’
Moody, honest, and beautifully unfiltered, ‘WAY OUT’ sees Sophia Tice leaning into art pop with confidence. The song balances vulnerability and experimentation, pairing emotive vocals with layered indie pop production that feels both intimate and expansive. It’s the soundtrack to emotional clarity arriving a little too late — and it hits right where it should.
Dace Silina ‘Love Sound’
Dace Silina’s new single “Love Sound” feels like a sparkling pop confetti cannon—fun, vibrant, and impossible to ignore. Her voice dances between tender and powerful, riding a melody that’s instantly addictive, while the production gives it a polished yet natural feel. By the time the chorus hits, you’re hooked, smiling, and maybe even ready to belt it out in the shower—because honestly, why not?
Drew Freeland ‘Trouble’
“Trouble” is Drew Freeland’s latest reminder that breakups don’t have to be sad—they can be fierce, freeing, and downright fun. Leaning into her “Johnny Cash song” vibes, she delivers grit, sass, and storytelling that sticks. The song blends Americana, Country, and Folk in just the right way, and by the time the chorus hits, you’ll be tapping your foot, feeling seen, and secretly ready to call it a day on anything—or anyone—that doesn’t serve you.
FREE/MAN ‘Redemption Song’
This isn’t a cover, it’s a heart-to-heart. FREE/MAN’s Redemption Song feels like a friend gently reminding you to breathe, slow down, and reconnect. With cozy alt-soul vibes and a timeless emotional pull, Charlie Freeman makes a legendary song feel personal again — and that’s no small feat.
Wolf Whistle Wounds ‘Imposter Sindrone’
Wolf Whistle Wounds crank the anxiety dial all the way up on Imposter Sindrone, and somehow it absolutely slaps. It’s industrial, twitchy, unapologetically tense — like your inner critic learned how to produce beats. Fans of chaotic, genre-melting mayhem are going to feel right at home in this beautifully unhinged three-minute spiral.

WESPEAKMEDIA: TOP 5 WEEKLY MUSIC ROUND-UP (29.05.26)
Find the latest new music in our ‘Top 5’ weekly music round-up here at We Speak Media. In this weekly feature, we will be bringing you the hottest new acts and music out there.
Astor Storm ‘Lift Me Up’
There is a studied elegance to “Lift Him Up,” where industrial textures and atmospheric synths are not used for spectacle but for emotional precision, supporting a composition that treats vulnerability as structure rather than sentiment, and ultimately positions the track as a thoughtful exploration of transformation through sound.
Julia Sommerfield ‘Ratata’
Julia Sommerfield’s “Ratata” doesn’t just introduce her; it kind of drags you into its moody little dream world and refuses to let you leave without feelings. It’s indie-pop, but make it cinematic, slightly spooky, and emotionally overqualified for a debut single. The production swirls like fog in a coming-of-age movie where something mildly supernatural is definitely happening, and Julia’s vocals float right through it like she’s narrating your inner monologue. It’s dramatic in the best way, but never overdone, like someone whispering something deeply important in a very stylish haunted house.
Luchino ‘My Whole Life’
Luchino clearly understands the golden rule of modern pop: make people feel something while giving them a hook they can’t stop replaying. My Whole Life does exactly that, mixing heartfelt storytelling with polished, feel-good production that sounds ready for playlists, road trips, and accidental emotional attachment alike. It’s sincere without being heavy, catchy without trying too hard, and proof that Luchino is quickly finding his lane as a fresh new voice in pop.
NMDA & Isabelle Rose ‘Stoned’
If “vibes” could file a formal complaint, “Stoned” by NMDA and Isabelle Rose woulde Exhibit A for emotional overachievement. Between the gospel-drenched vocals, cinematic production, and deeply human storytelling, this track doesn’t just play—it happens to you. It’s dramatic in the best way, like a late-night thought you didn’t ask for but definitely needed.
Symonne ‘The Way You Love’
Symonne has mastered the art of making introspection sound cool. The Way You Love drifts in with smooth melodies and lush production before wrapping listeners in a blanket of memories, emotions, and late-night thoughts. The track feels like scrolling through old photos with your favourite playlist on—equal parts bittersweet, comforting, and strangely uplifting. With her soulful vocals and knack for turning personal experiences into universal moments, Symonne proves that sometimes the quietest songs leave the biggest impression.
