“Sliding Door” - The Gerry Farrow Band (Feat. Rainbow Frog Biscuits)
Sometimes the best musical pairings aren’t born in boardrooms or label strategy meetings, but in the most unassuming of places — like an open mic night in Loughborough. That’s where the seasoned pros of The Gerry Farrow Band crossed paths with TikTok-era rising star Rainbow Frog Biscuits, and the chemistry was immediate.
“Look Me In the Eye” - Edie Yvonne
There’s something kind of poetic about dropping your boldest track yet on your 17th birthday. Most teenagers are still figuring out who they are, but Edie Yvonne? She’s turning self-doubt and growing pains into anthems, and her latest single Look Me in the Eye is the clearest sign yet that she’s stepping into a whole new lane.
“Flat Circle” - HMRC
There’s nothing polite about HMRC — and that’s exactly what makes them essential. The Newcastle four-piece have been building a reputation as one of the sharpest, most politically biting bands to rise out of the UK’s current chaos, and their latest single, Flat Circle, shows a new side of that rage: the existential one.
“Lost & Found 1981-1985” - Personal Column
There’s a certain kind of magic when music you thought was lost to the passage of time suddenly resurfaces decades later — not as a nostalgia trip, but as a reminder that great songs never really age. That’s exactly the case with Lost & Found 1981–1985, the long-overdue collection from Liverpool’s Personal Column, a band that once seemed on the brink of making it big but ended up slipping through the cracks of the industry machine.
“Who I Am” - Big Rome
One thing you can always expect from Big Rome, is raw honesty — the kind that doesn’t just touch the surface but digs down into the bones. His latest EP, Mentally Disturbed / Scarred 4 Life (out September 11, 2025), is exactly that: a heavy, unflinching look at the scars we carry, the demons we fight, and the resilience it takes to keep standing.
“Forget Me (You Won't)” - Eclectic Whiz
Some tracks exist to be streamed in the background. Others demand your full attention. Eclectic Whiz’s Forget Me (You Won’t) belongs to the latter camp — a sprawling, unorthodox, cinematic beast of a single that feels less like a pop song and more like a coded transmission from another realm.
“Morning Coffee” - Elly Darrall
There’s something magical about the songs that weren’t supposed to exist — the ones written at the last possible moment, almost by accident. Elly Darrall’s Morning Coffee is exactly that kind of song, and maybe that’s why it feels so raw, unfiltered, and utterly human. Written the night before a studio session and recorded in just two takes, the track carries a kind of fragile urgency — as if the feeling was too heavy to be bottled up for long.
“Eyes” - SickRichard
London’s SickRichard aren’t messing around with their sixth single. Eyes doesn’t creep in quietly — it smacks you in the face from the first bar, a storm front of urgency and atmosphere that feels like being pulled into a black hole of alt-rock intensity. It’s heavy, it’s haunted, but at its core, it’s also deeply human — a song about fear, rejection, vulnerability, and the bruised process of learning to trust yourself again.
“This Ain't Real” - HalfCutLemon
HalfCutLemon are not here to play it safe. If their debut was the sound of a Copenhagen band finding their teeth, This Ain’t Real is them baring fangs, spitting blood, and then—just when you think you’ve got them figured out—slipping into something unexpectedly cinematic, tender, or even downright beautiful. It’s a second album that refuses to sit still, one that shoves punk, post-punk, and baroque pop into a blender and dares you to keep up.
“In My Head (The Live Album)” - Romain Swan & The Raindrops
Some bands sound good on record. Some bands sound good live. And then there are the rare ones who need the stage to fully make sense — where every lyric, every riff, every drum hit feels like it was built to be shouted into a room of strangers who somehow know exactly what you’re going through. Romain Swan & The Raindrops fall squarely in that last category. Their first live album, In My Head (The Live Album), is both proof and celebration of that fact.
“Big Big Dreams” - Jay Putty
Jay Putty doesn’t just write songs; he writes reminders. The kind you scribble on the fridge, tape to the bathroom mirror, or mutter under your breath on the rough days to keep yourself moving. His new single Big Big Dreams (out September 26, 2025) is exactly that kind of reminder—a tender, sweeping anthem about grief and resilience.
“falling 4 u” - cydan
Toronto-based artist Cydan wears their heart firmly on their sleeve with falling 4 u, a single that feels less like a typical love song and more like leafing through the pages of an old diary. Released on September 26, 2025, the track draws its emotional weight from a childhood memory — a girl who became a muse, a mirror, and the silent backdrop to years of growing up.
