Seamlessly uniting the serene and the intense, London-based creative composer IUS explores the depth of the universe and our connections within it, through the spellbinding instrumental project We Are Stars.
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.

“Sometimes I write to escape what I’ve been through—I write to transform it into something empowering. That’s what gives my music its emotional tone. It’s honest, reflective, and designed to help others find light in their own journey.”

The dark-pop theatrics and haunting vocals of Stephan Folkes meet with boldly eclectic production and storytelling, as the UK songwriter and artist delivers his anticipated ten-track album Hazard.
Electrify My Heart leans towards eighties tumbling rhythms and vocal harmonies, almost Kate-Bush like in its theatrical presence and emotional depth, for a catchy song of desperation and subsequent connection that’s profound and evocative. The soundscape is organic and multi-layered, the crescendo is huge, and the energy – the passion of the chorus and peak – helps make this another defiant highlight, and a superb introduction to the delicacy and drama that walk hand-in-hand throughout this EP.
Star-crossed lovers recapture their truth in a post-apocalyptic world.
