‘ahhhh!hhhh! (i don't wanna go)’ by cumgirl8

Guttural, relatable, and ominously weird, New York-based band cumgirl8's latest release, 'ahhhh!hhhh! (i don't wanna go)’, offers a glimpse of what's to come from their forthcoming album. Blending digitised hyperpop, shoegaze, and spoken word with an electroclash edge, the single takes a surreal journey through a unique and unparalleled soundscape.

‘He’s My Man’ by Luvcat

‘He’s My Man’ is a devilish ballad by whimsical vocalist Luvcat, who sings murderously about a housewife slowly descending into the madness of life’s monotony. Cinematically following up her debut release, the track touches upon the blurred lines between love and obsession, as she sings dulcetly over acoustic guitars and strings.

‘Alone’ by Douvelle19 & just lil

Someone needs to study Douvelle19’s transition from grime instrumental flipper to chugging techno producer. The thing is, it’s hard to pin the musician down so specifically, as he works with rapidly rising artists like AntsLive and forays into sounds across the electronic spectrum. This time, just lil is on hand to provide her angelic wit to ‘Alone’.

‘Wiz’ by Popstar Benny, Vayda & SadBoi

8-bit 808s and cartoonish melodies are all the rage on Popstar Benny’s new single, ‘Wiz’, which features two of rap music’s brightest voices. Vayda and SadBoi ride the beat with an effortless swagger, like they’re looking you up and down and concluding that you’re simply not on the level of their style or lyrical bite.

'Don't Hurt Me So Bad!' by BabyJake

BabyJake turns a new leaf with his latest release, Beautiful Blue Collar Boy, a vibrant collection that celebrates the everyday beauty of American life. The 10-track album spans alternative, rock, and indie, offering a colourful range of sounds and narratives. Standout single 'Don't Hurt Me So Bad!' showcases Jake’s pop sensibilities, while other tracks like 'Momma 212,' a gritty ode to New York City, and 'Arian(e),' a tender ballad about an internet romance that falters in reality, further highlight his storytelling prowess. Each song paints a vivid vignette, masterfully woven together by his sharp songwriting.

‘POUND & DOLLA’ by Capo Lee, bullet tooth & Killa P

Elusive UKG producer bullet tooth and grime legend Capo Lee continue their streak of collaborative two-steppers on ‘POUND & DOLLA’. Crisp breaks and bleepy synthesisers create a bedrock for the barslinger to pounce on, accompanied by the guttural cadence of fellow lyrical powerhouse Killa P.

‘Let Me Hear You Say’ by The Allergies

The Allergies' latest single, ‘Let Me Hear You Say’, is a vibrant throwback to the golden age of disco rap, blending old-school MC chants with infectious, groove-laden beats. With its entangled vinyl-sampled vocals and slick basslines, this retro banger masterfully captures the spirit of the early '80s New York club scene while keeping the party vibe alive for modern audiences.

‘Pride’ by Sam Redmore

‘Pride’, the latest single from Sam Redmore, bursts with feel-good energy, drawing from the golden age of disco with lush horn and string arrangements that nod to Salsoul and Philadelphia International. Originally crafted for comedian Joe Lycett’s stage show, the track has since grown into a full-blown dancefloor gem, with Sam’s signature global grooves making it an irresistible hit in DJ sets.

‘Three Birds (Bon Music Vision Meditative Rework)’ by Belle Chen

‘5D Rap Rules’ by Lyrical Chris

‘5D Rap Rules’ by Lyrical Chris is our pick from the steezy rapper’s latest hip-hop odyssey, Prewrite. Patiently waiting for his moment, on the track, he confesses that his time is now, as his flow and beat selection align to engineer a breezy boom-bap jam.

‘i guess i like you (a lot)’ by Lucky Iris
