There’s intrigue and power in choosing to step through the chaos and to, quite simply, be exactly who you really are. Posner highlights this well both lyrically and in terms of the rising strength and appeal of the music.

Taking inspiration from the likes of Lil Peep, along with a more classically trip-hop-influenced aura, Dutch’s latest album is one that effectively fuses skills from his acoustic past with a deeply thoughtful and contemporary writing style – ultimately offering a strong remedy for the chaos and noise of the modern world.
Jared Lee and Midnight Kids have collaborated for this latest release to offer a song that’s not only professionally and skillfully crafted, but that legitimately makes its audience feel something – something very real, engaging, and blissfully enjoyable.
Fresh from the EP Cultural Art, Scoob Rock’s Stop And Pause is a crisp and classic hip hop track that leans back and forth between nostalgia and freshness.
The very essence of the original work shines brightly thanks to Mansilla’s clear understanding of and connection to this melody and this artistic portrayal of the story behind it.
Experimental music is often the most fascinating to listen to – particularly when its done with such clear musical awareness and understanding. This album is eclectic enough to hold your interest, but it’s also increasingly emotional and a pleasure to connect with and escape amidst for an hour or so.
Never one to stray away from depth, the artist has made sure to craft this project in a manner that allows intense subjects to be lightly presented – they connect in subtle ways, rather than overwhelming the listener.
TonAsh is back with yet another dance-hall-hip hop smash, fusing high energy, multi-layered beats, with a heavy bass-line and a quickly confident, easy-going subject matter and performance.
The whole thing begins to feel like a circus or carnival-style song – immense energy and multiple layers of colour, but an underlying concept that leans a little more towards depth of thought and even darkness.
Raining down with an entrancing array of synths and a sense of warmth and optimism, the song engages without hitting hard. On the contrary, despite its multiple layers and the weight of the beat, intensity is kept at a distance, and the song in full represents its calming moonlight concept in a consistently easy-going manner.
Klef Mikaydo’s return this month sees the artist storm forward with crisp and clear production, smooth melodies, and a stunning overall performance and song that are quick to impress.
The song offers an underlying sentiment that seems fairly inspiring and of depth – the poetic references intertwine with the inclusion of ‘you’, inviting the listener to consider these ideas, these instances of advice, and to feel the embrace of the music as its weight and intensity fills the room.
