indyana - the navy baby In a spellbinding and enthralling showcase of compositional, musical and narrative talent, indyana’s debut album the navy baby dives deep into fear of the unknown, taken through the lens of mortality and death. With maturity in contemporary songwriting and orchestral performative prowess, she raises the bar of sonic ethereality with stunning vocals and intricate arrangements.
leroybroughtflowers - Exit Scene London-based and Thessaloniki-born, leroybroughtflowers combines breezy indie production styles with the foundations of hip-hop, jazz and RnB for his new mini-album Exit Scene. Embodying “a ‘cart postale’ from London to Greece,” the project is filled with dreaminess and themes of change. Previously backed by BBC Introducing and Spotify’s New Music Friday, leroy’s latest evolution is a welcome opportunity for new fans.
Runrummer - Elevator Backed by seemingly every facet of music tastemaking, Runrummer has long been on the radar. Now, the alt-pop rising star unveils her debut album Elevator, filling it with unique new tracks and cemented fan favourites. Taking audiences on a tour of youth and romance, she hits euphoric highs and wistful lows but always finds time to add an extra layer of synthesised colour.
Future Husband - Terra The latest from Dutch four-piece Terra is their self-proclaimed “love letter to the planet,” ‘Terra’. The new single is brimming with shimmering nostalgic magic, with rhythmic percussion, bright instrumental backdrops and a choir of enchanting vocals on top. Regularly taking their dynamic live show across the venues of Europe and London’s Peckham Audio, their heartfelt stories of humanity are a welcome pick-me-up.
Alina Ly - Keep Me Warm (Live) After a four-year hiatus, Alina Ly is back in the world of music-making. Her first outing? A return to an old favourite, unveiling a live version of her 2019 single ‘Keep Me Warm’. Alina has “multiple records” in the pipeline, but, before these new projects are unveiled, she adds, “it felt right to pick back up where we left off.” Gorgeous and delicate soundscapes are as warm as ever, and her talent has not faded with time.
