This week’s LITM Pop Picks round up all the feel-good tunes out there, ranging from synth-pop and jingle pop to folk-pop and orchestral pop. The list brings stellar artists like T-FINNY, Mick J Clark, St. Niklas, Justin Sconza, and Tara Hack.
T-FINNY - Sugar Pie
First up, we have a candy sweet, synth-pop track from T-FINNY, titled Sugar Pie. The New Jersey singer-songwriter and multi-genre artist delivers a feel-good love song, loaded with vibrant summer melodies and beats. The track comes after a two year hiatus, fourth in line to dilate the sublime style and dreamy allure of the artist. With a shifty rhythm design overarched by luminous tones, the track will have you dancing off your feet in no time. Listeners of The Jonas Brothers, Pharell Williams, Portugal. The Man, and The Chainsmokers, are sure to enjoy the delightfully mellow yet energizing atmosphere of this track.
Mick J Clark - Anuther Sunny Hulliday
This next track by English singer-songwriter and pop artist, Mick J Clark serendipitously lines up to reinforce the chill, vacation vibes set up by its predecessor. Anuther Sunny Hulliday has a remarkable Buddy Holly and The Beach Boys resemblance with a touch of ABBA and Simon and Garfunkel. It is also a classic Mick J Clark song with its lilting simplicity and vintage frames. Retro pop melodies intersect with acoustic jingles and happy vocals to make the listening experience a care-free one. Made and performed for the middle-class family, he evokes tropical imagery of blue seas, warm nights, and summer love to create a sonic paradise that you simply can’t get enough of.
ST. NIKLAS, DØSSI - comfy
St. Niklas and Døssi’s romantic bedroom pop track, “comfy” continues this dreamy loop. Its glassy synth pulses and soft beats string together disillusioning moments and thoughts of a fizzling relationship. The double vocals of the artists add a pleasing dimension to the theme. St. Niklas uses muted tones and subdued synths to convey the wordless dance between the protagonists. Using “stream of thoughts” lyricism and ethereal synth-phonies, the artists engulf the listener into their minds. The production value, sound pallets, and dulcet emotions are reminiscent of Troye Sivan, Charlie Puth, and smoother works of The 1975.
Justin Sconza - No Real Place To Go
Justin Sconza is a singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and recording artist from Chicago. The artist just put out his latest album, Parlor; crafting each track with a 60s warmth that you simply cannot get enough of. Taken from this collection is, “No Real Place To Go.” Dressed in cozy instrumentation and reeling melancholia, it adds a soft folk touch to this week’s pop curation. The gradual slopes of melody roll back into the listener, welling with the poetic rhythm and romantic allure. Its life-soaked lyricism and delivery is a delight to listen to as it takes us back to artists like Joni Mitchell, The Beatles, and Hank Williams. Listen Now!
Tara Hack - Utopia
Singer-songwriter and musician, Tara Hack lines up an acoustic orchestra, seasoned with choral pop with her latest single, Utopia. Its bursting melodies are instantly uplifting and you can’t help but rejoice in it. Infused into a celebratory atmosphere, they swell with grand harmonies, vibrant violins, and traditional band percussion. Listening to the track feels like a carnival of music; for its irrepressible energy engulfs the listener in its utopian fantasy. A promise of goodness, success, and incredible joy. The artist beautifully brings out the theme using uncommon formations within the pop sphere.
