Heavy atmospheric production, evolving from the simple and intimate, to the full-throttle and bass heavy. From the artist who brought us Zombie Hours and Night Lapse, Without You is a genre-blending ode to love at first sight, and it’s one of Ry’s most creative releases yet.
Music
High-tempo electro-pop brings a soundscape as colourful as the artwork – Ehson Hashemian ignites a retro dance fire, with his cleverly energising single You Got It.
“A Buddhist monk from Japan sets out on a seemingly endless search for perfect stillness and peace. He eventually encounters an old hermit in a dark and cramped cave, an extraordinary being, and requests the secret to the permanent silence of his mental faculties. The hermit laughs, and replies that he has never had a silent mind, not in over 100 years.”
Sensational new music from alt-metal band A Million Little Fires hits this season in the form of a highly-anticipated full-length album. Violent Halos is as conceptually profound and gritty as its title and artwork suggest, and the opening track alone sets the bar exceedingly high.
Stylish alt-country rock with stunning vocals and a generally cool sense of authenticity to its story, performance, and groove. Jo-Jo & The Teeth keep things slick and satisfying, with the distorted original charm and impassioned chorus of Whiskey Dreams.
Hazy indie ambiance to gritty alternative rock – a personal outpouring of scornful regret and reflection, blending singer-songwriter honesty with the full force of an anthemic alternative hit. Songwriter and BMI awardee angelina mack captures the essence of heavy hindsight, with the brilliant lyrical explosion the lonely fool.
Promising a much needed and welcomed change of direction for the modern indie scene, UK songwriter and esteemed live performer Bradly Jago brings the fluidity and emotion of soul music back to the forefront, with the addictively stylish, melodic and – frankly, cool – single Killer Queen.
Emotional conviction and creative originality, a performative charm and euphoria that’s immediate – from an impressive UK band with a clear sense of identity, freedom, and depth to their music.
Established producer and songwriter IurisEkero highlights the very best of his emotionally loaded and intricate pop songwriting, with the bold and beautiful ballad It Wasn’t Because of You.
As a pathway into the project, Hud’n Seek is both adorable and fiercely hard-hitting, a quirky tribal dance tune with an unforgiving bassline and beat, some careful, skilling panning and layer-building, and an essential twist of rising anticipation from the toddler who inspired this whole new venture.
Organic folk and country love songs and stories, acoustically rooted but ambiently enhanced by modern AI production tools – Jon & Emma Lloyd Palmer is a full-length album of original songs, written by Patrick Benson, across four decades of life experience.
Personally their most impactful single to date – a stylish and catchy rock and roll anthem, with an underlying conceptual depth that’s poignant and powerful. DownTown Mystic top off a sincere and stylish repertoire, with the uplifting and confrontational new gem of a hit Somebody’s Always Doin’ Something 2 Somebody.
