“Drunk Candy” - Blake Cake
Blake Cake’s “Drunk Candy” is exactly what it sounds like—sweet, intoxicating, and a little bit dangerous. The rising DJ and producer has crafted a deep house banger that’s as glossy and stylish as a neon-lit rooftop bar but with the raw, underground grit of a 3 a.m. warehouse rave. It’s the latest chapter in her genre-fluid journey, where UK garage shuffles, house grooves, and the occasional drum & bass punch meet in an effortlessly cool package.
“Paradigm” - Heron
Heron’s “Paradigm” is the kind of track that makes you feel like you’re straddling two timelines: one foot in a ’60s jazz lounge, the other in a futuristic, neon-soaked cityscape. True to his reputation for tearing up genre boundaries and stitching them back together into something entirely his own, the UK artist, songwriter, and producer has delivered an uptempo, synth-heavy, psychedelic-pop gem that somehow manages to be both introspective and ready for the dance floor.
“When The Night Is Over” - Nik&Blu
If Milan is known for style, then Nik & Blu are here to prove that it’s not just about fashion—it’s about sound, too. The Italian duo’s upcoming single “When The Night Is Over” (dropped August 8, 2025) is a sparkling, high-energy blend of jazz flair, dance floor urgency, and storytelling charm that feels like it could have been plucked from a late-night Parisian cabaret and dropped straight into a chic modern club. It’s a bold first single from their forthcoming debut album, and it wastes no time showing off exactly what Nik & Blu are capable of.
“Dreaming Dog” - Antaeus
Let’s get this out of the way: Dreaming Dog is an album made for dogs. Yes, dogs. But give it a listen and you’ll quickly realize—it’s also for you. And your stressed-out nervous system. And your over-caffeinated thoughts. This album might just be one of the most genre-defying, heartwarming, and scientifically-backed music releases of the year, and it didn’t come from your typical pop machine or beat lab. It came from a dream: to soothe dogs, and along the way, soothe everyone else too.
“It's Me Again” - Brandon Wayne
Brandon Wayne doesn’t tiptoe into his latest release—he charges headfirst into the storm, guitar in one hand, regrets in the other. “It’s Me Again” isn’t just another alt-country rock track; it’s a confessional dirge, a thunderous reckoning wrapped in the grit of distorted riffs and the weight of sobriety.
“Welcome To Loveland” - Lucifers Beard
Lucifers Beard’s Welcome to Loveland is not your average EP. Sure, it’s got fuzzy guitars, infectious grooves, and all the analog charm of a vintage vinyl. But beneath the neon glow of this 70s-inspired psychedelic concept record lies a biting commentary on the emotional rot hidden under corporate cheer.
“Bring in the Wild” - Catherine Elms
Let’s get one thing straight—Catherine Elms isn’t here to play it safe. With her new album Bring In the Wild, the Welsh alt-rock enchantress throws the doors wide open to the shadowy corners of her psyche—and invites us in for a slow, dramatic, and utterly mesmerizing look around.
“Liquid Reality” - Anupam Shobhakar
There are albums that blend genres, and then there are albums that tear the boundaries down completely, toss the pieces into the wind, and build something totally new. Liquid Reality, the latest offering from virtuoso guitarist and sarodist Anupam Shobhakar, definitely belongs in the second camp. This is not a fusion record for people who just want to sprinkle sitar over jazz chords—this is deep-rooted, high-level, no-holds-barred sonic architecture.
“See You Around” - Verticoli
Tasmania’s very own alternative rock powerhouse Verticoli have just dropped a new single, “See You Around,” and it’s the kind of track that hits you right in the nostalgia muscle. Instead of going full heartbreak ballad, Verticoli wrap it all up in warm, jangly guitars, laid-back grooves, and a distinctly Aussie brand of alt-rock that feels just as much like summer as it does sadness.
“Light In The Window” - Rebloom Music
Let’s be real—grief is grief, and anyone who’s ever loved and lost a pet knows that it cuts deep. With her latest release, "Light in the Window," emerging songwriter Rebloom Music (aka Sam Gallimore) steps up to shine a light—literally and emotionally—on a kind of grief that often gets overlooked: the grief of losing a beloved animal companion.
“DISCO Summer Dreams” - Julandjim
Step into the hazy heat of summer, pour yourself a cold drink, and press play on Julandjim’s debut single, DISCO Summer Dreams. Hailing from the idyllic corners of Chai, France, this brand-new project is already carving out a dreamy lane of its own—one where analog lo-fi textures, retro synths, and cinematic nostalgia swirl together like a half-remembered scene from a ‘60s beach movie scored by Daft Punk and Bossa Nova legends.
“Kuruvinda” - Kirsten Agresta-Copely
Let’s be honest: the harp doesn’t always get the love it deserves. But Kirsten Agresta-Copely isn’t here to play background music for your garden party—she’s here to shift your internal landscape. And with Kuruvinda, she does exactly that.
