Listen to this week’s edition of UNDISCOVERED, featuring our pick of the best new music from the world’s most exciting emerging musicians.

‘Everyone Falls Asleep In Their Own Time’ by Sophia Stel

Sophia Stel shares her new single ‘Everyone Falls Asleep In Their Own Time’ - a dreamy, self-produced track paired with a grainy, VHS-style video shot on a Vancouver rooftop. The release follows her breakout EP Object Permanence and viral hit ‘I’ll Take It’, which earned praise from Troye Sivan. She’s also announced her first European headline tour, kicking off November 7 at Pitchfork Festival Paris.

‘Coach’ by Sex Week

Gearing up for the release of their new EP, Upper Mezzanine, NYC duo Sex Week release the daring single, ‘Coach’. Wanting the track, "to feel like Romanian Popcorn music was playing in an American dive bar”, the acoustic guitar, fiddle and acordion mesh alongside elements of catchy glitch pop - the shear disparity becoming a core feature of the band’s music. As they get ready to make their UK debut at Green Man and Manchester Psych Fest, Sex Week continue to craft a sound like no other.

‘JOGA 07’ by Brbko

Building with tension before crescendoing into a pit of scuzzy synthesisers and barely audible techno bass, and eventually playing out with (maybe?) a sample of Björk’s ‘Hyper-ballad, ‘Joga 07’ by BRBKO is the Negropop banger we’ve been craving this week. The barely audible, mumbled raps and cybernetic electronica enmesh restlessly, capturing the freneticism that has made him one of UK underground rap’s most important names.

‘Liar’ by Lauren Duffus

Fresh from her new EP, Can’s Gone Warm, ‘Liar’ by London-based multiphyphenate Lauren Duffus is an emotional reflection inwards. Originally written in the summer of 2023, the track feels brooding and harmonious. The rest of the project is just as eye-opening, exploring themes of self-doubt, relationship turbulence, and finding resolution.

‘Life’s So Strange’ by Delilah Holiday & They Hate Change

Hip-hop duo They Hate Change and art-pop artist Delilah Holliday join forces on ‘Life's So Strange’, a dreamy, bouncy track that comes as part of a double single. Injected with Delilah’s soulful vocals and Vonne Parks and Andre Gainey’s punchy rap verses, their contrast makes for a heavenly match: “We met at a Carnival afterparty, we instantly hit it off. We booked a studio session the following day and wrote and recorded two tracks right then and there,” Delilah shares on the collaboration.

‘sofie’ by Sunken

Like their name suggests, on Sunken’s new single, you can’t help but melt into their pool of psychedelic shoe gaze and grunge. The headsy London band released the EP 10K earlier this year and ‘sofie’ feels like the perfect follow up: “‘Sofie' isn’t a real person, it's just a placeholder for someone you meet who sucks and that's what the song is about,” lead singer Poppy explains.

‘a casual dance between friends’ by big long sun

Brighton’s big long sun wants you to have ‘a casual dance between friends’, on their latest DIY bop. A project from Jamie Broughton, where everything is created in his home ‘boudoir’ studio, the South Coast outfit have a penchant for neo-psychdelia and progue rock and we can’t get enough.

‘CONTROL’ by Frost Children

‘CONTROL’ is as raucous as we’ve come to expect from Frost Children: the sibling band whose screamo-meets-sugary hyper-pop has garnered them a cult following in NYC and here in London. The Dime Squares mainstays continue their genre-morphing evolution, as they gear up to release their new album, Sister.

‘Not There Yet’ by LULU.

‘Not There Yet’ is an athem for resilience, patience, and divine timing by rising UK singer-songwriter LULU.. Wrapped up in soul and a beautiful melody, the track blends Afrobeats with an alternative edge to create something unique to her. “‘Not There Yet’ captures the tension between longing and endurance. As the difficult periods in our lives chip away at our faith you start to question whether the dream is still worth chasing,” she explains.

‘ALL 2 U’ by KiLLOWEN

Garage-rap rising star KiLLOWEN returns with ‘All 2 U’, a slick, playful single that effortlessly maintains his signature blend of honesty and everyday storytelling, speaking directly to a generation navigating modern romance, uncertainty, and ambition. Built around a playful, pitched-up sample of Ghost Town DJ’s iconic 1996 track ‘My Boo’, this release may become the soundtrack to his rapidly growing audience, setting him apart in the wave of UK talent redefining rap’s boundaries.
