Pulsing, rhythmically swelling synths accompany NOVAA’s subtle, laid back vocal delivery on her new single ‘Lights’, a collaborative effort with emerging producer Lo. Think AlunaGeorge but more restrained. “LIGHTS approaches the question if being in love means falling for someone else or falling for yourself and the person that the other one sees in you….

Launchpad: Faunaphor
All my favourite little details of electro-pop are present in Faunaphor’s debut single ‘In A Library, In The Summer.’ The expansive sizzling synths, the steady restrained beat and the Spandau Ballet esque melodies. “‘in a library, in the summer (when I read I fall asleep)’ is a song about language and the moments when it…
Anjulie – Dream Again
I’m a big believer in songwriters using their talents to say something important, to shift the political needle and engage otherwise apolitical fans. There’s been a resurgence in this kind of writing as of late, Anjulie’s ‘Dream Again’ is a prime example of impactful and thoughtful song-craft. “Last summer I started a conversation with my…
Elsie and the Vibe – Naked
I’ve been aware of Elsie since her debut single ‘Riverside’, a compelling piece of pop that made its way into my regular Spotify rotation. Her new single ‘Naked’ is an equally impressive record, with Elsie’s vocal taking centre stage; the Brooklyn-Based songstress is beginning to impress and carve out her own sound. “I started working…
Alexiane – A Million On My Soul
The only child of a Franco-Senegalese father and a Quebec mother, Alexiane comes from a family of travelers. Her childhood, spent travelling between locations has given her a unique sense of personhood, and an ability to feel at home anywhere. A Million On My Soul is a song about the transition from childhood to adulthood,…

River is a singer/songwriter who is emerging as one of the freshest talents coming out of London’s buzzing scene at the moment. Her debut single was released on Kitsune and stormed to over a million streams on Spotify. Her new single ‘Worry’, a collaborative effort with Swedish producer Osmo, is another sure hit. “This song…
Bien – Stars Across The Sky
Bien are an indie-pop trio based in Nashville. The band began when founding members Jessie and Angela left a writing session with a batch of songs that they believed would work for themselves. These demos were brought to Tim Lauer, Angela’s husband, and renowned producer. Since then, they have been releasing catchy irreverent pop to…
Pomona Dream – Tropicana
Pomona Dream are an emerging alternative duo currently playing their way through Los Angeles. Their new single Tropicana is an energetic jazz tinged romp that sits perfectly in your summer evening playlists. There’s a solid groove that pumps steadily underneath the fizzing vocals, setting a perfect aural scene. Follow: Facebook Instagram
DESIIRE – Reckless
A really expressive R&B / Soul record always stands out for me; the way the melodies are structured allows the vocalist to have a little bit of fun, dancing around the beat. DESIIRE extends his performance by playing around with this idea, taking the melody and building around it. The result is a really enjoyable…
Raffertie – Note
Note seems to be a rather personal exploration, so we though it wise to let Raffertie tell you about his beautifully written new single: “Note is the first from a collection of songs that I will be releasing over the next 12 months via my own label Super. Note is an exception but most of…
