If there’s one good thing about living through a cultural decline, it’s that humans seem to be significantly less concerned with adhering to strict structures. Louisville, KY artist Wonderkind is making the kind of music that defies any sort of categorization. On two new singles, “Heartbreak Dance” and “Hindsight’s 2020,” the artist pulls out all kind of card tricks to make songs that would feel at home in any of the past four decades.

Yuni Wa has today premiered his new single titled 'Digital Love'. Yuni is an artist that explores those parts of the mind and music that few artists dare to tread. This is no more evident than in 'Digital Love'.

Marbles have today released their new single titled 'One Of A Kind'. A slight and subtle summer pop song, what we get under the surface is one of those tracks that is as welcoming as it is catchy.

Folk music has a long history of being a catalyst for cultural change. There’s something almost inherently human about the sound of the acoustic guitar; it’s familiar, warm, and poignant. And Providence, RI, band How’s About Charlie understands the simple power of acoustic instrumentation and powerful lyrics on their newest single “Coming Back.”

MC Bravado has released his new single titled 'I'm Good' with Koncept and Not.Fay. MC Bravado is one of those artists that speaks from the heart and shows his human side in his music. I'm good shows that he is indeed good. The feeling is fused in the music and reaches for those aspirations that we all deserve while not always knowing it.

The Company Stores have today premiered their new single titled 'Old Dog', from their upcoming album called 'The Family Album', out September 23rd.

IOTA has today released their new track titled 'Sometimes'. A love letter to a comrade now gone, we get an appreciation for life via a musical poem and love letter to those we have lost and will lose. Life is short. And, to be honest, this song came at the right time for me, personally. Feeling my own mortality through stupid choices I've made while my life has handed me a new existence. that may sound confusing, but we're all going through that very same thing. Just on different levels and through different circumstances.

Monolithe Noir has today premiered their new single titled 'Askre', from their new album 'Rin', also releasing today. Given a stoic sound of dark reflection and introspection, 'Askre' is one of those songs that can put you ion a trance. Think mid-eighties The Cure or Sigur Rós with a heaping dose of originality.

Natalie Duncan has today premiered her new single titled 'Found Myself'. With a remix and instrumental, you get a gamut-spanning musical trinity of a song that signifies the transition of an artist and the progression of an art form.

Leezy has released her new single titled 'Cocaine Kisses'. Dark with deep introversion and retrospection, 'Cocaine Kisses' is a song from someone who lived it. The life is in the lyrics, and they are real. Beautifully crafted with music that sets the mood. I feel the song bursts through near death to find life waiting in the wings. Finding that secret place in all of us and telling us we need to embrace it to let it go.

When first listening to Kate Bond, it’s easy to get stopped in your tracks. The Bradford born now Newcastle based soul songstress reignited her passion for music when moving to the North East for university, and since her first single ‘Beauty Sleep’ last year, has been played on BBC Radio 1 and Radio 6, with her debut also featuring on BBC Radio 1’s Best of 2021 Introducing show.

mUmbo has released their new single titled 'Don't Even Mind The Rain'. Subtle with a hook yet powerful in that musical stance and layered instrumentation under an angelic vocal track, 'Don't Even Mind The Rain' is one of those songs that grow on you over time. The kind you miss when it's not there to quench your thirst. The kind you listen to parts of over and over again and wonder how everything was so nicely pieced together.

Satin Jackets has today released the new single titled 'First Thing' featuring Tailor from the double LP 'Reunion', dropping August 26th via Eskimo Recordings. That feeling of smooth soul and suave songwriting, Satin Jackets (a.k.a. Tim Bernhardt), gives summer its dance and the music its rhythm with that feeling of transition from lockdown to throwdown.

Miles Hewitt has released his new single titled 'The Ark' from his upcoming album 'Heartfall' dropping August 26th.

Cosmopolis are set to release their new single titled 'Pushin’ Too Hard' this Friday (August 5th). Gritty between the beat with a bit of dirt sprinkled about for a bit of hair on the...

Jamie Beale has released his new single titled 'King Godzilla'. With a more percussive and somewhat funkier tone than it's predecessor, 'King Godzilla' channels the likes of vintage Stevie Wonder with a modern flair and a clear story to behold.

The A.M.s have today released their new single titled 'Ignite The Sky'. Deep alt-folk with substance is what I hear when I press play. Best to listen to this track while in a state of transition. This will be your guide. That subtle friend with a warm hand on your should letting you know that you are not the only one while pointing you forward. Isn't that what music is about?
