“Superheart is releasing his brand new single Lilo that marks the dreamy, indie-pop music sphere. Beautifully produced and layered with authentic vocals accompanied by indie-rock percussions and synths composes a form of touching and anthemic music piece”

-Nagamag.com

UK producer, singer/songwriter Superheart is a master of ambient sound. In his new upcoming single "LILO" Superheart brings striking beauty to the world in the form of touching, poignant, and anthemic music.

Penning the human experience and pairing it with emotionally charged soundscapes, the UK talent has become a trailblazer in the dreamy, indie-pop music sphere. Continuing to bring innovative and passionate music to the table, "LILO" is Superheart's newest offering.

With numerous highly successful releases under his belt- including hit singles "Count On Me," "Talk About It," and "World's on Fire," which landed itself on New Music Friday - along with praise from notable publications including Flaunt Magazine, The 405, and many others, Superheart continues to shine in the indie sphere.

Soaring vocals in "LILO" marks new heights for the talented Superheart. Beautifully produced, layered vocals are accompanied by indie-rock percussion (recorded with Eric Jacowitz remotely during lockdown) and 80's synths that draw you in to a dream-pop meets indie-rock time warp. "LILO was the first song I wrote after signing with Akira Records," he shares. "I remember I was having a meeting at Soho House watching these people lying around in the pool in the middle of the day and thinking... who are these people?"

"The record deal gave me a huge feeling of confidence and I think the epic nature of the track reflects how I was feeling at the time, I wanted to make something massive that could be played in a stadium or sound huge at a festival."

"Layered with ambient touches that would make anyone excited to stay in bed a little longer or scurry along to get ready for a night out." - Flaunt Magazine

""There's power in subtlety. With 'After Midnight', Superheart carefully curates the layers so as not to overwhelm." - The 405

"His airy, indie pop sound creates an uplifting, euphoric vibe throughout and will surely put anyone in a great mood while listening." - This Song is Sick

Superheart's music feels like the warmth of being wrapped in a blanket and reminiscing on the best times of your life. With his knack for creating music that envelops you, taking you out of your own world into a place infinitely better and with that, we hope this music brings a little bit of solace.

Geena Fontanella – Circles
(Spotify)

“Geena Fontanella with her rare polytropic vocal style and the brilliant yet minimal sound design of "Circles" lift up the pop emotions in an endless rhythmic harmonic rainbow.”

-Nagamag.com

Singer-songwriter Geena Fontanella has a knack for penning alt-pop hits and does it again with her new single "Circles," due out next week. The L.A. creative pens her intimate thoughts about not fitting into someone else's mold and pairs it with electrifying production.

The indie artist brings doesn't give a f**k about what other people think and brings that energy to the pop world with creative production, powerful vocals, introspective lyrics and hint of sass that leaves you begging for more.

The L.A-based singer-songwriter fell in love with music as a young kid. "I remember my mom bought me a stereo for my birthday and everyday for a year I would put in a cd and try to hit every note and run I could. Practicing over and over again. For me, it was the first thing I truly fell in love with," she explains. It wasn't until high-school that she realized her passion for writing.

"When I was a sophomore in high school, I watched a video of Katy Perry saying, 'How can you really perform a song and feel it, if you didn't write it?' I think what really struck me was that I realized, I could never be a great performer if I didn't become a great writer. I didn't want anything standing in my way of being great, so I started immediately."

Fontanella brings her refined style to "Circles," a hypnotic and rebellious dance-bop. The track flirts with electronic production and features crunchy guitars and a lilting melody. As the track blooms, a variety of vocal effects make for a unique bridge that grabs you immediately. Fontantella's artistry is abundantly clear as she shares her experience of not fitting into someone else's mold.

Bjorn Rydhog – Just to Be with You
(Spotify)

Unlike Rydhog's previous recordings, ’Just to Be with You’ has been recorded in his own basement together with the producer Johan Sigerud. Music and lyrics have been co-created with Olof Gråhamn.

This time the sound is more modern and electronic, but still melodious indie pop at its best. ’Just to Be with You’ could be the perfect soundtrack to summer evenings with friends. Inspiration has been drawn from M83, Nick Drake and Bon Iver, among others.

“The single ‘Just to Be with You’ differs in so many ways from my previous acoustic songs. The creative process has been an exciting exploration and discovery of the music program Logic and the the great opportunities of a home studio setting, with just a computer, some synths and a skilled producer.”

The song ‘Give Me Sunshine’ is the first single from the recently released EP of Bjorn Rydhog.
