There is something refreshing about a debut that does not try too hard to impress but instead just does it naturally. Tamara Lee’s first single, “Touch and Go,” arrives via Now Listen without bombast or theatrics, and that is exactly why it works.

This isn’t music designed to numb. It’s music that keeps the lights on — even when what they reveal is uncomfortable. There’s a certain kind of electricity that doesn’t explode — it simmers. That’s the voltage running through Arsenal of Democracy, the new album from New York’s Energy Whores. It doesn’t shout. It tightens. At the center of the project is Carrie Schoenfeld — vocalist, composer, filmmaker, producer — working alongside guitarist Attilio Valenti. Together, they op

If you’ve been following James Laurent’s journey, you know he wasn’t supposed to end up in music. Born and raised in Milwaukee, the Ecuadorian-American artist was a soccer kid with dreams of playing professionally in Sweden, until a knee injury at 17 changed everything. With no backup plan, he grabbed a family laptop and a borrowed microphone and taught himself how to make music.

On ‘Naive’, Weaux trades the funk-laced nostalgia of his previous work for something sleeker and more nocturnal. Lifted from his forthcoming EP FUTURE VU , the single pulses with a mechanical urgency - all rigid drum programming and shimmering synth lines - while retaining the emotional directness that has become central to his songwriting. It’s a pivot toward futurism that feels deliberate rather than cosmetic. Self-written and produced, the track thrives in its contrasts. H

Willoh releases her striking new single 'FASHION, continuing a run of boundary-pushing electronic rock releases that have marked her out as one of underground music’s most intriguing young voices.
