flora cash breaks with the emotional desperation of someone truly suffering. The duo grace their new single i’m tired with some catchy contrast to land this pain softy upon your ears in a way that’s oddly seductive. It’s that same release you get from watching a sad movie, a desire to hurt so that you might feel alive again and find comfort in knowing this pain is not exclusive.
flora cash retain their melodic brilliance within this musical cry, with their broken tattered delivery adding effective dramatic flair. A catchy melody in any light; flora cash give all of themselves to the performance to land it cinematic. It’s catchy too, in a way that recalls the works of Billie Eilish or Joji with its sad but undeniably catchy lift. Hear for yourself.

Soft Loft are anthemic on their recent single Rose Colored. This emotive bop has the right kind of jive to get you sock hopping in the moment, with an added emotional brilliance to the vocal performance to land these vibes iconic.
It’s a curious nostalgia, one impossible to place in song but tied specifically to a feeling, an adapted version of what we absorb from 80s music but presented here in a more modern indie rock framework. Stylistically they bridge the gap between Sam Fender and Sharon Van Etten. We find it delightful.

From the onset of Paper Thin the artist Foreign Saints takes the wheel and guides you into an imaginative sonic experience. With the dreamy production that swirls through the atmosphere this vibe embraces a metaphysical presence. The unexpected thrill of the peppy drum part adapts the mood uplifting. The artists pushes their delicate emotive hush over the layered musical design like a dedicated emotional guide. The whispery affect adds to their acquired serenity while their forceful presence brings urgency to this moment.
Within this aura someone needs saving and the artist wastes no time in getting them to safety. It’s an inviting musical comfort, one that doesn’t resent the melancholy but leans towards emotional stability. The perfect song to rescue you from the doldrums of a burdened existence and whiplash you away from a difficult work day. Indie pop and dream pop collide as if Elliot Smith fronted The War On Drugs.

A new kind of stomp and holla aesthetic erupts from Charlie, the new single from COQUÍ. Instantly infectious in its rhythmic design, Charlie adapts intriguingly when the vocal enters the cinematic frame. Stylistically Primus and Ween both have a stake in this sound. We also hear the country urban flash known to some Dr Dog cuts. Charlie is insanely catchy, a detail thats amplified by the singers curious twang.
The artist cites his Christian faith as being at the root of his creative journey. Charlie sounds like a bad seed, and the song shines as more of a tribute than a conversion. We can dig it.
