Music Genre
Strangely Enough – Long Time Coming (Spotify)
Strangely Enough are returning in their genre-bending fashion, comprised of soaring vocals, polyrhythmic synths, rubbery funk bass-lines and solid grooves.
Lowercase People – Blooming (Spotify)
Lyrically revolving around the common misunderstanding and poor outlook Americans seem to have on homeless people, "Blooming", was intended to inspire people to love their fellow humans and to treat them as such. As far as the music goes, it was an experiment in restraint. We wanted to challenge ourselves to make a chill song and be slightly less indulgent than we have been with our other songs. We were very influenced by Scarypoolparty, Bjork, and DJ Shadow in the writing/recording process for this track.

The Burgler – Roadkill (Spotify)
Roadkill' is the debut and theme single out of The Burgler's first album.
It is a smooth mystic blend of LoFi Indie Pop and a groovy electronic beat, wrapped in dreamy experimental-ism, taking inspiration from artists such as Homeshake, Zero 7 and Thundercat.
The lyrics are self conscious in a somewhat harsh way, and talk of accepting and being at peace with our own flawed nature, which can make us more strong and resilient in the future.
They/Live – Dreamer (Spotify)
“Dreamer,” the new single from They/Live’s upcoming album, is a song about trying to make art and find connection and beauty while living in a dystopia. How does one survive? How does one sustain love? “So I go in deeper than I ever have before, here we are the dreamers but they wove us into war.” One goes deeper.
I Want Poetry – Growing Pains (Spotify)
"Growing Pains" is about the beauty of coming out of your "egg shell" and leaving your comfort zone that keeps us safe but also keeps us small.
Noé Solange – Nocturnal Lady (Spotify)
Inspired by moments of insomnia, ‘Nocturnal Lady’ delves into the realm of downtempo electronica with shades of trip hop. The fast-paced rhythmic backdrop of electronic elements juxtaposed with dreamy harmonies and melancholic lyrics detail the endless struggle into slumber.
It also tries to depict how we as individuals have started to disregard our need for sleep. One could say that in some sense, we have all become nocturnal. We live in a non-stop world, having programmed ourselves never to turn off, to be intolerant to patience and the notion of waiting.
Josh Terry – Supernova (Spotify)
Supernova - a young boy looks up at the stars and feels how big it is to be human - the single. It's got a violin solo. It's got a vocoder. It's got an exploding star. What else could a fellow need in life?
Solkyri – Meet Me In The Meadow (Spotify)
