Hailing from Stockholm, Sweden, Molly Hammar is no stranger to the spotlight, breaking into the industry at just 15 years old. But now 23, and gearing up for the release of her sophomore EP, she’s enlisted the services of grime MC (and TV star) Big Narstie for her latest single, “No Place Like Me”. Over a […]

At just 18 years old, it may seem hard to believe but so-called newcomer Jasmine Thompson has already quietly but effectively built up an impressive fanbase across the globe through her own original songs and covers of the likes of Sia, Chaka Khan and Tears For Fears that she’s uploaded to YouTube—some of which have racked up […]

With each passing day, it feels as though social interactions are becoming more and more impersonal and invariably conducted through technology. It’s something a lot of us are beginning to question, including London-based singer-songwriter Alessandro Ciminata whose latest single, “Kings”, tackles that very subject. The song itself is a beautifully moody piece of new wave-influenced […]

Swedish pop creative and Frank Ocean collaborator Simon On The Moon is arriving with his second single of the year, “Stromboli”. The new track comes hot on the heels of last month’s “Lied 2 U”, and continues down that path of R&B-influenced pop as he marries delicate, breathy vocals with vivid live instrumentation built around […]

Coming all the way from Bergen, Norway, the same place that gave us Scandi-pop songstresses Sigrid and Aurora, singer-songwriter Moyka is today ready with her debut single “Colder”. The song, as she explains below, is an uplifting story of getting through a break up and making it out the other side a little bit stronger. Speaking with […]

It’s been a couple of years since we had new music from German producer Heimer — his last album, Teilzeit Swag, dropped in 2016 and his last single, “Nest Ice”, dropped in 2017 — but now he’s back to drop off the glossy futurist visuals for a collaboration with vocalist Kuoko クオコ. Production-wise, Heimer’s put together a bouncy and twinkly, […]

It might be the shortest month of the year, but February is already a strong contender for 2019’s wildest. We got the Grammys and the Oscars, and with them endless talk of the Lady Gaga/Bradley Cooper friendship, some long-overdue recognition for Spike Lee, and the continued reigns of Cardi B, Drake, and Kacey Musgraves—yeehaw! News-wise, […]

Emerging Canadian-born artist Cotis is ready to make his debut with the Wait! EP, a seven-track collection of hip-hop and R&B-infused pop. Slow-burning and melodic, Cotis’ music takes some cues from a lot of the better SoundCloud rap that’s circulating right now. Tracks like “Blame” and “Phone Light Up”, for example, have a lot of crossover potential […]

In the two years since UK singer-songwriter Stealth released his debut EP Verse (which charted at number 2 in the UK iTunes singer/songwriter chart and number 3 in the US), several EPs and singles have followed, but all of them solo ventures. Last week, however, he released a collaboration with US funk and soul band The Dap […]

If you’re Ariana Grande, being single on Valentine’s Day after releasing a series of breakup anthems is the perfect opportunity to make a little money.  The 25-year-old singer released a collection of limited edition V Day merchandise on Thursday in celebration of her latest album Thank U, Next. Grande announced the collection on her Instagram by photographing […]
