The Bad Bubble saga continues, this time backed by Electric Eden Records for that extra boost. February is a pristinely established new album, beginning as ever with an instrumental string and synth atmospheric opener, then quickly rising up for the multi-layered vocal depth and satisfying resolve of Chivalry.

Never confined to a single style or expectation, EONIAN write from the heart, and make music that moves and entertains in equal parts. That transparency is what gifts their music something so authentic.
From acoustic folk ballads to long-form pop-rock anthems and theatrical peaks, Voices in The Wind speaks volumes on behalf of the limitless power and creativity of collaboration and artistic freedom. Seth Davis’ songwriting and composition abilities shine brightly throughout the project, and the music holds the key to connection or understanding across a plethora of topics.
Creatively blending the summertime bounce of soca and afrobeats music with a smooth vocal thread, evocative and deeply personal story of Faith, and a brilliantly catchy hook resolve – TAVO malkhutekha (a name meaning ‘Thy kingdom come’) gets the chemistry just right, for the wonderful Wings of Grace.
Introducing the latest songwriting showcase from Martin Lucassen. Sonic Pulse Project utilises contemporary AI vocals to elevate a piano-led arrangement of songs and poetic lyricism, blending pop and rock across an evocative collection of nostalgic reflections.
Impressively mysterious production meets boldly conscious rap bars and a smooth, whispered RnB hook. kasperisreal carves out a completely original lane, with the likes of his provocative and dreamy to intriguing single wake up/4:33am.
That’s something the artist forever masters, never resorting to easy rhymes or bars just for that sense of relevance or mainstream appeal, but always maintaining the essence of each story and intention throughout his long-form writing process. How Come is a fine example of precisely that quality, and hits with a catchy hook and original production to match.
Originality and organic inspiration unite brilliantly for this release, a producer making fine use of both professionalism and playfulness at the creative helm. Mario Tha Great (MTG) connects with artistic flair and consistency combined, for the quickly recognisable tone and tempo of Ascend.
Old school simplicity brings back the mellow pace of Hip Hop – the sort that first let storytelling and lyricism guide the way. OC Threat keeps things focused on groove and intention, with the low-key party single Tonight.
If you’ve ever loved the knees-up appeal and unrivalled embrace of rock and roll and southern rock captured perfectly in the studio setting, We’re all gonna get it is exactly what you should be listening to right now.
Organic electronic rhythms both consistent and perfectly compressed for that tribal-hypnotic escapism of a timeless genre. D.J.NATHAN.FRIBERG captures the essence of old school house music, with the simplicity and slick appreciative style of Speaker Movement.
