Europe
Originality and optimism carve out a rhythmic and distinct, playful to cinematic composition – Edilegrand dives wholeheartedly into the instrumental electronic world, with the distinct tones and energy of Onflow.
New music from Allan Jamisen brings a song built from a selection of perfectly crafted moments – the kind of colourful bursts of melody and chorus that resound as those suitable for use in uplifting reels and media alike.
It’s a devastating ending, but the calm and quiet of the music, the humility and tiredness of the vocal, all counters the impact of this – making it feel like a necessary surrender of sorts, to the unsolvable desperation and ache of searching for someone who can’t be found.
Nostalgic folk-fusion performer and songwriter Gwyn English Nielsen captures a smooth balance between the intimacy of acoustic music and the boldness of musical theatre, with the unplugged tones, conceptual scorn, and vocal prowess of You Give He Takes.
Something to listen to at volume, largely for its blissful fusion of intricate detail and soulful expression. An ambient, ethereal journey, blending spiritual warmth and trip hop across an evocative realm of lyrical guidance and meandering sounds. Isaac Garza’s music is a dream and a pleasure to stumble into, and Revolt marks a sublime introduction for those new to his work.
Letting creativity lead the way – nostalgically inspired but artistically modern, with a crisp finish and a dark, seductive overall groove. XyXa captures the essence of romantic entanglement, with the addictive stomp and dramatic strings of Tango Insuperable.
Unique and effective production amidst deeply honest, evocative lyrics paves the way for a whole new sound in modern dance-pop. Molli launches an intoxicating debut single, uniting alternative flair with snappy, catchy resolves that naturally linger in the mind.
Fully immersive synth rock and conceptual depth unite beautifully, across a repertoire of superb songwriting and a fearlessly unique, impassioned style. Emily Kinski’s Dead are a fantastic indie band of our time, and their music is connecting far and wide.
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.
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.
An ambient soft rock realm – distinct but gentle guitar riffs and clear sense of rising anticipation. Lana Crow carves out a nostalgic indie arena of sound and expression, with the depth and intention of Your Mini Me.
