Kylin Milan – Could It Be You

Rising singer, songwriter, and model Kylin Milan is looking for her other half on debut single “Could It Be You.” The dance-floor ready track, produced by GRAMMY-nominated songwriter and producer Poo Bear, incorporates ethereal sonic synths and an infectious beat drop that will have your energy level soaring. The anthemic single is just a taste of what’s to come from Kylin as she positions herself to make a lasting mark on the pop scene.

AshnikkoWorms

Pop star Ashnikko has released her brand new single ‘Worms’, and we can’t get enough. Filled with a genre-bending production, the track expertly showcases her evolution as an artist. In addition to the new single’s release, the young talent also released Mad Max inspired music video that featured state-of-the-art CGI. We are absolutely in love with Ashnniko’s new era.

Yazmin Lacey – From A Lover

East London-based talent Yazmin Lacey has celebrated the release of her debut album dropped ‘Voice Notes’ with the release of her track ‘From A Lover.’ Backed by a soulful sound, the rich track will leave music listeners in their feels. Speaking on her new album, Yazmin explained: “I wrote this album for me… music is the place where I make sense of my feelings, it always has been and ‘Voice Notes’ is no different. It’s a collection of responses to what was going on in my life and the world around me. I wrote this for my own peace of mind… and by track 14 I think I gained some. I hope this record makes people feel good, I want people to feel seen and heard”.

Arlo Parks Impurities

Grammy-nominated, Mercury Prize and BRIT Award-winning artist Arlo Parks is back with her new track ‘Impurities.’ Taken from her second album ‘My Soft Machine,’ the single explores the feeling of being an outsider and living life unapologetically. Speaking on the track, Arlo explained: “‘Impurities’ it’s about being around people who make you feel like your inner ugliness and failures and mistakes don’t matter, who lift you up and make you laugh, who make you feel good and clean.”

Kali Uchis ft Don Toliver Fantasy

Kali Uchis’ new English language album ‘Red Moon In Venus’ has finally arrived and with it comes the release of her latest lead single, ‘Fantasy.’ With the songstress singing about love, desire, and heartbreak, ‘Fantasy’ exudes an incredible energy that is a must-listen for fans of Kali. “The moon and Venus work together to make key aspects of love and domestic life work well. This body of work represents all levels of love—releasing people with love, drawing love into your life and self-love,” Kali explained. “It’s believed by many astrologers that the blood moon can send your emotions into a spin, and that’s what I felt represented this body of work best.”

French The KidSingle Player

Essex-born talent French The Kid returns with his sleek new track ‘Single Player.’ Featuring warbling chords and skittering 808 drum patterns, French’s delivers melodic flows and an infectious chorus line that will be stuck in your head for days to come.

grandson Eulogy

Platinum-selling artist grandson has returned with his new single ‘Eulogy.’ The track explores the effects of mental health, nihilistic behaviour and anxiety. Speaking on the track, grandson said: “Eulogy was written in the aftermath of a bad mushrooms trip this summer, which led me to scrapping my album and admitting to myself and others that I was struggling with fantasies of self harm. It’s easy to feel nihilistic or cynical about the future, and there’s a strange comfort in indulging in the depressing absurdity of day to day life with the only people in the world that understand you.”

Jordan AdetunjiYou & I

Belfast artist Jordan Adetunji has dropped his eagerly anticipated new single ‘You & I’. Infusing elements of the hyperpop and Jersey club genres, the track ushers in Jordan’s new music era incredibly well. ‘You & I’ is fresh, new and a must listen. When reflecting on the track, Jordan said: “The journey of creating this song was the most organic feeling to me in a long while. I was in constant thought about the thought of love and how we hate the feeling but love it at the same time. Rock, dance and hyperpop are my big musical interests, but when I thought ‘why don’t I try mixing it with Jersey club drums?’ that was when I knew this was something special. It felt so fresh and new to me.”

Cub Sport – Songs About It

Cub Sport has returned with their new single ‘Songs About It’ ahead of their new album ‘Jesus At The Gay Bar.’ On their new release, Cub Sport features an electric production that’s full of sub-bass, and infectious piano riffs that will leave fans dancing all night. Speaking on their upcoming album Cub Sport said: “There’s a lot from my life before I came out that has always been shrouded in shame, fear and secrecy. But it doesn’t have to be a secret anymore, and I feel like I can really shine a light on the magic of it and recognise and celebrate it for what it was and is.”

Mimi Webb – Amelia

Breakout singer-songwriter Mimi Webb has released her debut album Amelia. Speaking on her new album the young talent said: “I can’t believe my debut album is finally out. I have been working towards this for years and it feels surreal to finally be holding it in my hands. This is a body of work I feel so proud of and that really tells my journey until this point. I have been working and nurturing these songs for quite some time now and I’m so excited to finally have them out in the world.”
