Elly Kace’s new song “Even with the light on” is out now. The song is full of rising and falling melodies that are both catchy and emotional. This unique melodic approach sets Kace apart as a one-of-a-kind singer.
Her emotionally driven lyrics are relatable for many listeners. “Even with the light on” is deliberately dynamically varying, which creates tension and release. The song feels bittersweet with its admirable melodies and instrumentation but sorrowful tendencies.

Tommy Champion and Mcclendon have teamed up for their new collaboration “Wait for Me.” With the vocals being lightly coated in effects, the song has an ethereal appeal. The chorus feels grand and cinematic, and the song’s title being sung harmonically during it feels like a punch to the heart.
The song is melodically diverse, and each infectious melody resolves itself in a satisfactory way. The lack of overly tangible instrumentation works to their benefit as it creates more space for their vocals to shine through.

“Electricity” is the new collaboration from The Fishermen Three and The Wave Pictures. The song is laced with overdriven electric guitars and falsetto vocal harmonies. The modest drum line allows listeners to focus their attention on the vocal melodies and guitar licks.
The thought-provoking lyrics tell a story that feels like a book. It’s a vulnerable approach that works in their favor to relate to listeners. The song breaks down during the bridge before ultimately being re-introduced for the song’s conclusion, where a brass line is played atop the existing instrumentation.
