This relationship is not coming to a good end. Even though Holland, a new singer/songwriter based in the U.K., sings “If things don’t change by the end of the day, I forget your name”, there is little hope. For musical emphasis, she drains all the genre-typical sugar and leaves little[…]
A sentiment we wouldn’t easily admit, not to strangers, not to friends and maybe not even to ourselves: “I’m Not Alright”, the new single by London-based singer/songwriter John Joseph Brill. With its sparse instrumentation and alluring melody, the track leaves room to let the beautiful and warm baritone vocals enchant us. What[…]
“Breathe”, our Song Pick of the Day”, is about a suffocating relationship and Alex Louise, the singer of the New Zealand duo Ravines tells the story with dark intensity over pulsating synths. Their third EP “Ordinary” (after to EPs produced under the name Ophelia) is out now.
“The Electric” is the glorious new single by English three-piece Mt. Wolf. What we came to know and love of Mt. Wolf, the beautifully dark vocals and the mesmerizing, brooding vibe, is once again prominent in “The Electric” too. Listen to the gorgeous “The Electric”, our Song Pick of the Day: Mt.[…]
Something “Vicious” is lurking in the new song by Brooklyn via London via India producer/songwriter Vandana. Only her voice casts a ray of light here and there into a mix of meandering, dark synth pads and muted marching beats. Play it loud on headphones and let yourself fall into the[…]
These days, more so than ever, Manchester seems to be an incredible breeding ground for interesting, new bands and CAESAR only manifest that notion.

I am currently in Munich and it is raining cats and dogs, but putting on the new Glider Pilots track immediately makes me feel a fresh sea breeze while sun rays tingle on the skin. That may because Samantha and Ben Hope are from Queensland, Australia, a vacation dream destination[…]
“Kiss?” is a song that immediately mesmerizes with its interplay of different vocals, with the chorus/melody background delivered by gorgeous female vocals with male verses over it. As much as I was immediately taken by “Kiss?”, I was sort of surprised by the band name Childcare which has just the most charming[…]
“Move With Me” by Brooklyn singer/songwriter Karolina Rose is a beautiful synth-pop track with more than one nod towards some 80s classics. In that sense, the song is close to what Canadian band Austra does, but where their singer brings in operatic quality, Karolina stays on the rockier side, her[…]
Beautifully re-assuring and exactly what we want to listen to is “Count On Me” by Kojun x Zaena, an electronic dance-floor gem, as sparkly and shiny as they come. The UK production duo Kojun collaborated with Zaena on their first release of the year. Heavy beats, infectious rhythms and a great melody provide the basis[…]
