Daisy Brain – What Would You Do

London-based talent Daisy Brain drops angst track ‘What Would You Do’. The production is reminiscent of a 90s grunge track that will have listeners in their feelings. Speaking on the track, Daisy says:” What would you do?’ is really just me screaming for help to be honest, my mood can swing dramatically and I realise I deal with it in quite a negative way, but at the same time I’m not entirely sure how to change that. The song is asking the question to everyone else about how they deal with feeling this way.”

ELIO Read The Room 

Emerging talent ELIO has shared her latest single, ‘Read The Room’. The Toronto-based artist showcases to be boundary-less creativity on the track with its dramatic vocal lines and crisp production. In a statement. On the track, ELIO reveals: “Read the Room is about one particular session with a producer who was a walking personification of main character syndrome (in all the worst ways). Sadly, this is seen in every industry and day to day life for a lot of women and LGBTQ+ people. We are told to be reserved, to behave, to fit into the mold of what society expects us to be – ‘Read the room’ is my way of owning that narrative.”

SIPHOI DON’T GET IT 

The mesmerising SIPHO has returned with his brand new EP SHE MIGHT BLEED. The highly anticipated release examines hyper-masculinity within society and the domino effect it has on generations past and present. Stand out tracks include ‘I DON’T GET IT’ and ‘DEEP BREATHS’. 

Aeris Roves – Enough For Me

Aeris Roves continues his music take over with his brand new single ‘Enough For Me’. Having written the song in one day, Roves sings about relationship insecurities and partner reassurance. Speaking on the track, he explains: “A rare occurrence in that this song was finished in a day making it very forthright. It was written almost as encouragement to a self doubting partner, proclaiming that all they are is in fact enough.”
