Pom Femme swirled us into their groovy melodic web on their recent Telenovela. The girls got it going on. Their magnetism lands infectious. Beyond the vibe the performances are absolutely effective. There’s a sweet retro appeal, altered elegantly with modern production techniques that land like a classic DJ mix. We think it’ll instantly connects with fans of Winehouse, Lake Street Dive, and Sharon Jones. Get Dap’d up!

Bellefolie caught our attention with their new single It’s Time. We adore the vintage twang and urban appeal heard in the singers voice. We appreciate the creative reverence of the mix and arrangement. The song evolves intriguingly, with subtle production notes that point to a scope of influence. Stylistically she finds the middle ground between Remi Wolf and Bjork. It’s awesome.

Simon Walker is convincing on their new single In Your Eyes. The nostalgic love fest accelerates into the present on this inspired release. The singer gives the classic notion some modern legs, as In Your Legs honors the legacy of Peter Gabriel and thrusts that influence in to the world of retro pop. Stylistically it’ll instantly connects with fans of Synthwave powerhouse groups like The Midnight and FM-84. Get into it!

Great performance videos are absolutely our jam, and like most we love it when they’re brought to us in one swooping shot. The style was made iconic by the emerge of Vulfpeck, and is the new gold standard for Internet video releases. Martin Luke Brown has offered an absolute gem with his recent hello ! The fish factory sessions video does well to illuminate the impressive dynamic of the songs arrangement, with the band really showcasing the attention paid to their creative parts. Martin themself is an absolute star. The vids above, don’t skip it!
