PAAB – “Alchemic Love”
Bruno D’ Ambra – “Kind Of Love”
Bruno D’Ambra is here with “Kind of Love”, and man, this one really hits different. Released just a few weeks ago, the track feels like stepping into a smoky jazz club where the groove’s tight, the horns shimmer, and the vibe is classy and playful. It’s only three minutes long, but Bruno packs in a whole mood: lush instrumentation, wonderful vocals, and that rhythmic pocket that keeps your head nodding without even realizing.
What makes this one a true experience is the balance. On one hand, you’ve got the elegance of jazz and a little Mediterranean glow in the melodies. On the other hand, it feels alive, like the band is jamming right there in the room, feeding off the energy and letting it breathe. That looseness gives the track charm and makes it more than just polished.. it’s human.
Recorded through his My Session Band project, this single shows Bruno doing what he does best: leading with heart, grooving with precision, and reminding us that jazz can be timeless while still feeling brand new.
kvikki – “Say those words to me”
Kvikki keeps the retro-pop flame alive with “Say Those Words to Me,” a track that feels straight out of an 80s dream but revisited with today’s glow. This song was released at the beginning of this year, now ready to take you on a little love-theatre ride: a girl torn between two suitors, the flashy Harlequin and the honest Pierrot. Instead of chasing the glitter, she chooses realness, and that’s a story we can all vibe with.
Let’s talk about the tune: it’s pure candy for anyone who digs synth-driven hooks, smooth drum-machine beats, and melodies that stick to you like summer memories. The production stays true to Kvikki’s mantra, “Keep It Simple”, and that’s the magic. No overthinking, just clean lines, catchy grooves, and space for the story to shine.
Henriette Viskum’s vocals are the real knockout here. Strong, warm, and just the right amount of theatrical, she brings the tale to life in a way that feels nostalgic, but also brand-new. “Say Those Words to Me” is retro done right: timeless, heartfelt, and pretty much addictive!
Trip Dawkins – “Incomplete Puzzle”
Trip Dawkins‘ latest project, “Incomplete Puzzle”, is exactly what the title says: a wild, colorful collection of pieces that somehow click together into a full picture. This is his fifth album, and it’s an incredible ride. The opener stretch of six bass-driven tracks shows just how versatile that instrument can be: from disco told through the eyes of a dog (Everyday), to reggae vibes dedicated to the family cat (Don’t Wanna Go), to the trippy synth-rock self-talk of “What Am I Thinking”. This man’s not afraid to experiment, and it shows.
What makes this project so dope is its scope, with over 30 tracks, yet it never drags. You’ve got indie jams, festival rock, French rap, and even Rock en Español sprinkled in. It’s like digging through a crate of records where every pull surprises you. Dawkins’ creativity is real, shining the whole way through, making this wonderful project a long listen that somehow stays fresh, engaging, and addictive.
Heart Chain – “Reconstructed”
We love to have with us Heart Chain with the wonderful single “Reconstructed”, and guys, this one brought us to another world. They’ve taken one of their most memorable cuts and flipped it into something new, something heavier, something that feels both futuristic and ancient at the same time. Glitchy stutters and solid rhythms come alive like a heartbeat, keeping you locked in while everything else around it bends and morphs.
On top of that raw skeleton, the synths and guitars go like stained glass catching light, sometimes warm, sometimes haunting. You can hear the human touch here: handmade melodies that carry the weight of grief, but also stretch toward hope. It’s music that feels like a cathedral built out of sound, where shadows and light are constantly wrestling, but somehow in harmony.
This single is not just a normal rework; it’s Heart Chain reminding us that from loss and brokenness, you can still build something powerful, honest, and beautifully alive.
Kristen Castro – “Capricorn Baby”
Kristen Castro’s debut album “Capricorn Baby” just landed, and it feels like stepping into her personal diary: only the pages glow with ambient synths, wonderful guitars, tender melodies, and lyrics that cut straight to the heart. From the first track “Amsterdam”, you know she’s not here to play.. every note, every texture, feels hand-placed, built from the ground up with that rare mix of precision and soul.
Tracks like “Malibu” and “Summer Rain” are pure gems, nostalgic, balancing indie-pop ease with dreamy, cinematic retro vibes. Then you’ve got “Pegasus”, where she strips things back and lets the space between sounds breathe, like she’s giving you room to feel your own story in the mix. The most vulnerable moment? “Amor & Psyche (Stripped)”, where her voice stands raw and unguarded, reminding you that sometimes quiet hits harder than noise.
Closing with “Capricorn Baby”, alongside Deb Talan, she ties it all together: a celebration of growth, resilience, and unapologetic selfhood. It’s reflective, it’s luminous, and it feels entirely her own.. We loved that!
Robert Silvester – “Fade Away”
Robert Silvester brings us his latest single “Fade Away”, and it’s one of those tracks that literally crawls under your skin and stays there. From the first notes, you’re hit with this haunting blend of post-punk grit and dreamlike atmospheres that instantly set the mood. The drums move with a heartbeat intensity, steady but alive, while the melodies drift like smoke, pulling you deeper into Robert’s headspace.
This tune pops off for sure: there’s raw honesty in the lyrics, and he’s not sugarcoating emotions, he’s laying them bare, letting every word echo with weight. It’s dark, yeah, but it’s also strangely uplifting, like staring straight into the shadows and realizing there’s still light flickering through.
Robert’s known for bending genres, and here he does it effortlessly, weaving in experimental textures without losing that punchy post-punk backbone. “Fade Away” feels less like a song and more like an atmosphere: moody, magnetic, and impossible to shake!
Carlos Ucedda – “DOSE OF LOVE”
Carlos Ucedda is back, this time swinging with “DOSE OF LOVE”, and that’s a vibe! After years away from the music scene, he’s clearly channeling all that time and life experience into something bold and refreshing. The track blends electronic house and techno with this wild operatic twist, sprinkling in lyrical flair and a theatrical edge that makes it stand out instantly. The track is polished, dramatic, but still feels raw and emotional at the core.
“DOSE OF LOVE” has a very unique storytelling. Carlos paints love like a journey: waiting, longing, embracing, all layered over beats that punch like a heartbeat under neon lights. It’s futuristic but rooted in something timeless, almost sacred. The Italian vocal touch adds in that luxe, cinematic feel, while the groove keeps it club-ready.
Bottom line? There’s none. The track rocks, and Carlos Ucedda is back, pushing boundaries with his unique and authentic style!
Korda Korder – “You Still Turn Me Inside Out”
Korda Korder are back with their second single, “You Still Turn Me Inside Out”. Guys, this is a proper dream-pop gem. Premiered on Steve Lamacq’s show, this track boasts some beautiful guitars, lush ambient synths, and vocals that feel like they’re drifting straight from another dimension. It’s moody, it’s hypnotic, and it’s got that bittersweet pull that’s difficult to find in nowadays songs.
What’s cool about Korda Korder is how quickly they’ve carved out their lane. Formed less than a year ago, they’ve already turned heads at SXSW and The Great Escape, and with a song like this, it’s clear why. The vibe here is pure haze and heartache, like a walk by the sea with your thoughts chasing you.
This incredible song is literally an atmosphere, a slow-burn anthem that cements the band as one of the UK’s most exciting dream-pop acts right now. Excited to hear what they’ll come up with next!
J Eden – “Stepping Out”
Sometimes a song feels like it’s been waiting for you, like the soundtrack to a moment you didn’t know you needed. “Stepping Out” carries that weight, mixing warmth and sincerity with a spark that makes it impossible to sit still.
Phenomenal trio J Eden drop this one straight outta Chicago, serving up a fusion where country soul, hip hop swagger, and pop glow ride the same groove. It’s not chasing flash; instead, it’s built on those classic uplifting chords, simple but powerful, that turn into something timeless. The vocals are soft and powerful at the same time, guiding you through the track with confidence, while the beat stays solid.
This tune gives a vibe of unity. Doesn’t matter if you’re in boots or sneakers; once the hook lands, everybody’s moving together. This wonderful single is about joy, freedom, and stepping into life with honesty and melody leading the way.
