Aistis ‘Caviar For Seagulls’

With its sweeping arrangements and deeply personal lyrics, this record is a slow-burning fire that will consume your emotions and leave you scarred – in the best possible way.

Swiss Pleasure ‘2009’

With ‘2009’, Swiss Pleasure delivers an evocative, genre-blurring experience that lingers long after the final note. The band’s signature fusion of indie rock, post-punk, and dream pop shines through, with layered instrumentation that perfectly mirrors the track’s emotional depth. The music video—crafted from the band’s own homes and personal objects—adds another dimension, using inventive visual techniques to explore isolation, self-perception, and the struggle between fantasy and reality. Rotating the role of the protagonist reinforces the song’s intimacy, making ‘2009’ a deeply immersive, introspective journey, as hypnotic as it is emotionally raw.

Craigology ‘Rain Drops’

Craigology’s, Secrets from a Gemstone, is a breathtaking tapestry of sound, weaving together ambient piano, neoclassical depth, and smooth electronic jazz with orchestral grandeur. Drawing inspiration from luminaries like Max Richter and Ludovico Einaudi, Craigology crafts a sonic experience that feels both intimate and cinematic. A standout track, ‘Rain Drops’, is a delicate dance of keys—playful yet deeply emotive, capturing fleeting moments of joy and introspection in a way that lingers long after the last note fades. With this EP, Craigology proves once again that instrumental music can speak volumes, painting vivid emotions without a single word.

Rumia ‘Shift in the Air’

Rumia’s latest single ‘Shift in the Air’ is a mesmerizing dive into the surreal, carried by shimmering electric guitar riffs and a sense of creeping unease. The track’s ethereal production perfectly complements its unique narrative—one that unravels like a dream slipping into a nightmare. Co-written with Charlotte Kohn and Daria Kickler, ‘Shift in the Air’ crafts an eerie yet beautiful tale of a protagonist trapped in a shifting reality, where the smallest details hint at something profoundly wrong. Rumia’s delicate, haunting vocals heighten the track’s emotional weight, leading the listener through a soundscape that is as hypnotic as it is unsettling. As the story builds, the music swells, leaving us with an open-ended question that lingers long after the final note fades.

Bowden ‘Be Your Own God’

Raw yet refined, Bowden’s ‘Be Your Own God’ captures the disconnection and uncertainty of modern life, transforming those emotions into anthemic alt-rock. The band’s experimental edge is evident in its unpredictable shifts in melody and rhythm, yet the song retains an undeniable accessibility that broadens its appeal. As the lead single from their upcoming album, Glacier, this track sets the tone for what promises to be a defining record, cementing Bowden’s reputation as a band unafraid to confront the complexities of the human experience.
