Nicki Wells - Never Will
Nicki Wells takes us to the core of our emotional mind with her soulful folk-pop track “Never Will”. This song is incredibly intimate and vulnerable with its soundscape that is largely driven by muted synths and Nicki’s amazing singing. The singing on this track is incredibly expressive and doesn’t relent on emotion for a second and you can really feel and resonate with the amount of heart Nicki has crafted into this track. With masterful songwriting, this song turns into a complete package that will tug on your heartstrings and leave you in a reflective mood. I loved this song and so will you, so go check it out!
Timothy Robert Graham - Till There Was You
Timothy Robert Graham makes you feel a rush of nostalgia and comfort with his latest track “Till There Was You” which is oozing with style and retro charm. Timothy’s warm vocals dominate the soundscape of this song as he serenades you with his low tones and smooth flow of the verses. The instrumental of this track is largely made up of swingy instruments with all the pomp and grandeur of speakeasy jazz. You find yourself completely floating away in the ambience of this track as the music takes control, so go give this song a listen and add it to your playlist!
Blair Wxtch, Butterfly Haus - Light Me Up
Blair Wxtch and Butterfly Haus come together to make you groove to the beat with their latest collaborative track that breathes 90s flavoured pop into your ears with a modern and fresh twist. The most striking feature of this song is one that is often overlooked and that is the authoritative drum beat that underpins the whole song, whose cadence and rhythm are infectious as they are unforgettable. That's not to discount the rest of the elements that make up this song, with Blair’s smooth vocals contrasting and complementing Butterfly Haus’amazingly smooth rap verses. This song is as much of a triumph as it is fun, so you must check it out!
Eleegal - La Buena
Eleegal is single-handedly ushering the renaissance of Latin pop into the mainstream cultural zeitgeist with their latest track “La Buena”. This song serves as the perfect track to dance along to in a club and one you can enjoy at home listening by yourself because it will have your foot tapping and your blood pumping in both circumstances. The transitions between the Spanish and English verses are buttery smooth and you hardly even notice the switch up because you are so utterly enchanted by the beat. I loved every second of this easygoing laid-back piece and so will you!
