Montréal-based synthwave producer Das Mörtal returns with DECVY I, a seven-track mini-album that pushes his dystopian electronic sound into darker, more psychologically demanding territory. Released on 30 October 2026 via Lisbon Lux Records, the project marks the opening chapter of an ambitious trilogy exploring physical and mental deterioration through darkwave, dark techno, witch house and trance. Written during a period of personal health struggles, the record channels ill

Belgian electronic producer and DJ Ghost Jr. continues to build momentum with ‘Back To You’, a high-energy new single released on 30 October 2026 via Steve Aoki’s Dim Mak Records. Blending electro-house and dance-pop with elements of his wider Trance, Techno and Eurodance influences, the release highlights an increasingly refined production identity, balancing immediate dancefloor appeal with a polished, contemporary electronic sound. Running just under three minutes, ‘Back T

After nearly a decade away from music, SKIP-DAWG is back with ‘Lyrical Playboy’, a track that taps into the confidence, charisma and personality that first drew him to the mic. Blending rap verses with a smooth R&B hook and hints of alternative rock, the single has a laid-back swagger, but there’s more going on beneath the surface. At its heart, it’s about the difference between the person SKIP-DAWG is in everyday life and the bolder, more expressive character he becomes thro

Brooklyn-based producer and artist DrewsThatDude knows how to make a track move, and new single ‘Greed’ is a case in point. Blending disco-funk, R&B and electronic club sounds, the track brings together infectious grooves and rich, cinematic production, creating something that feels equally at home on a dancefloor or through a pair of headphones. With two Grammy nominations and credits on projects by Lil Wayne and Mac Miller, DrewsThatDude is no stranger to the industry. His

French singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Felix Antonio continues to build momentum with ‘Felix Antonio & The Sea’, a seven-track EP that marks a significant step forward in his development as a solo artist. Blending contemporary indie folk with atmospheric production and emotionally direct songwriting, the release showcases a musician increasingly confident in his creative identity. Born in Normandy in 2001, Antonio developed his musical foundations through choir, c

Leem of Earth return with ‘The Greatest Gift’, a brooding, cinematic new single that finds the alternative dream-rock four-piece exploring the uncertain territory between destiny and self-discovery. Drawing inspiration from George MacDonald’s Victorian fairy tale The Princess and Curdie, the track introduces the narrative world of their forthcoming concept album ‘SEE’, bringing a literary sensibility to a sound rooted in ‘90s alternative rock and expansive dream-pop atmospher

Samsara makes transformation sound like a contact sport on Swordfight, a brooding, maximalist EP that turns personal upheaval into high-voltage electronic pop. The London-based, Australian-born artist has little interest in smoothing out the contradictions of her experience. Vulnerability and bravado coexist across the record, giving its theatrical production a sharper emotional edge. Focus track ‘Stab ’n Smile’ is the EP’s most compelling collision of sugar-rush synths and u

Penni Layne brings a warm, easygoing charm to everyday i fall in love, an album that moves between jazz, soul and R&B with a natural sense of flow. Blending classic standards with original songs written alongside her husband and musical collaborator Larry Jackson, Layne creates a collection that feels personal, intimate and refreshingly unforced. Recorded live at New York’s Sear Sound, the album thrives on the chemistry between its musicians. Joined by pianist Michael Kanan,

Wormogenic has a knack for making difficult feelings sound deceptively euphoric, and ‘16’ is a case in point. Blending shimmering synths with gritty guitars, driving bass and a darker electronic edge, the Florida-raised artist delivers a dream-pop track that feels as good to sing along to as it does to sit with. Beneath its glossy exterior, though, lies a more complicated story about growing up and never quite knowing how long happiness will last. Written after a birthday tha

Robert Hinrichs turns personal upheaval into a burst of synth-driven pop on ‘The Road’, a track that balances reflective songwriting with an increasingly euphoric sense of release. Drawing on funk, new wave and electronic production, it pairs bright synths and propulsive rhythms with the theatrical pop sensibilities of Scissor Sisters and Mika, while retaining a distinctive experimental edge. Written in the aftermath of a difficult relationship and a fresh creative start, the

Fox De La Rose takes a refreshingly open-minded approach to album-making on Nothing Is Written In Stone, a nine-track release that moves between pop, rock, Britpop and cinematic soundscapes without settling into one particular lane. Rather than sticking to a signature sound, the project lets each song find its own direction, with songwriting and storytelling providing the common thread. The album explores the experiences that shape us, from loneliness and regret to learning w

Seth Tabatznik’s ‘Infinite Beings’ is a quietly expansive piece of folk songwriting, balancing intimate reflection with a sense of something much larger. Released as the second single from his forthcoming third album, the track finds the London-born, South Africa-based artist turning inward, exploring questions of identity, purpose and acceptance through an arrangement that gradually opens into something more widescreen. At the heart of the track is Tabatznik’s songwriting, d

Hazel Gaze bring a raw sense of character to Do As You Please, the lead single from their live project Strung Out: Live & Unplugged at the Brooklyn Conservatory. Rooted in classic rock but stripped back enough to let the songwriting breathe, the track finds the New York quartet trading studio polish for the immediacy of a room full of musicians playing together. Strings add a cinematic edge to the arrangement, giving the song a richer scale without taking away from its rock ’

There is something almost mythological about Candi Carpenter's artistic trajectory. Raised within an evangelical Christian family and introduced to performance through gospel music, Carpenter eventually found their way to Nashville, the Grand Ole Opry, and the country music establishment before turning toward a far more idiosyncratic creative language. Reincarnation draws all of these histories into a single work, not as nostalgia but as raw material. It is an EP concerned wi

Malmö duo MAMI UMAMI have never sounded particularly interested in staying within the lines. Across their releases, Jaquelin Elamiri and Leonard Furby have treated hip-hop, pop and club music less as fixed genres than as raw materials, building something distinctly their own from the collision. Their latest single, (Don't) think I like you, continues that approach with a track that is immediately kinetic but considerably more complicated beneath its surface. Co-produced with

UK techno artist ADRIANNA continues the rollout towards her forthcoming album ADRIANNARCHY with Power Back Remixes, a two-track EP featuring acclaimed Italian producer T78’s contrasting interpretations of ‘Power Back’. Released September 25 via her TMPL Music imprint, the project launches a seven-week remix series that will see artists including Wehbba, Alex Stein, Christian Smith, Drunken Kong and The Obsessed rework tracks from the album ahead of its October 23 release. T78

Get ready to have your heart gently broken in the best way possible by "honest," the incredible new single from Blue Capricorn and LOREN KOLE. This Latin indie-pop collaboration is an absolute must-listen, a gorgeous and ethereal track that will wrap around you like a favorite blanket on a rainy day. It is easily one of the most emotionally compelling songs you will hear this year. From the very first note, "honest" draws you into its dreamy world. The production is simply st

Mila Sidhu walks into ‘One Night’ with the kind of confidence that doesn’t need to announce itself. Sensual, sleek and quietly commanding, the track turns attraction into a game of agency, placing Mila firmly in control of the room rather than waiting to be noticed from the sidelines. Built around crisp production, seductive vocals and a late-night pulse, ‘One Night’ finds its sweet spot somewhere between alternative R&B and darker pop. There’s a sense of glamour to it, but n

Radiola’s Version of Life is the kind of debut that refuses to reveal all its cards at once. The Paisley outfit move through indie rock, Americana, post-punk and experimental guitar music with an instinct for contrast, creating an album that feels exploratory without becoming unfocused. Following their sold-out BBC Introducing showcase at King Tut’s, it’s a strong introduction to a band clearly intent on carving out their own space within Scotland’s guitar scene. The album’s

Atticus Roness makes a spirited case for the enduring power of rock ‘n’ roll on Rock ‘N’ Roll Hit Parade, a 13-track album that embraces the melodic invention of The Beatles, the swagger of The Rolling Stones and the youthful exuberance of The Lemon Twigs without becoming trapped in the past. Years in the making, the record feels less like an exercise in retro revivalism and more like a celebration of everything that makes great rock music so infectious. Roness has a clear af
