South African indie artist meelu is back with a new single called “candlelight”. The song is deeply personal and her delivery is full of emotion. She has one of the best voices I’ve heard in 2026. There’s a softness to…
The second I saw Sabina Chantouria’s name pop up again, my mind went straight back to “Changes”. I remember writing about that one last year and thinking I’d probably keep an eye on whatever she does next. So I pressed…
Good evening, everyone! I will just say it. This band is going to be your favorite one for the next few months. The Sunmills surprised me with their new single “They Tell Lies” and I really fell in love with…
I just discovered this band recently and I loved spending time with their new single “Above the Roof & In the Tree”. The first thing that hit me was how loud this track sits in the room. Not just volume,…

Good evening, everyone! I didn’t expect this song “Old Familiar Way” by Rachel Swain to stick with me the way it did. I really loved every second and found myself singing the chorus a few hours later. There’s something unique…
I was supposed to write about this album “Hope and Recreation” back in March, but every time I sat down to do it, nothing came out. Not because I didn’t like it, kind of the opposite. I’d hit play just…
I’ve been keeping up with this band Moonroof for a while now, so this wasn’t a random listen for me. It was more like checking in on a band I already trust a lot. I remember writing about them last…
I didn’t read anything about “Maynard’s Song” before hitting play which I’m glad about now. It’s the kind of track that works better when you just let it sit with you. It stays soft the whole time. No sudden shifts,…

“People Pleaser” by Katie Belle slipped into my playlist recently. It didn’t take long before I realized it was the kind of pop track that stays with you which I was looking for. Not because it’s flashy or over the…
I just discovered this new masterpiece. “Gaslighted” by Lilia Asha is a soft pop song and carries a lot of feeling inside it. The arrangement is mostly acoustic so it leaves space for the story to sit in the center.…
Magdi Aboul-Kheir’s new album “Slow Heat” runs for almost an hour (50min) and it’s the kind of record that calmly fills the room while you sit there letting it unfold. 10 instrumental pieces move at their own pace and the…
I ended up playing this amazing album “Hurry” late at night with the lights low and my phone face down on the desk. It’s the right way to hear it. This album carries a lot of thoughts about living in…
I found “Running Out of Time” by Lana Karlay almost by accident. It popped up late at night while I was clicking through a few new releases. The kind of random listening session where you’re not expecting much. Then this…
