Old Man – Kylie Rothfield
“Η όμορφη εισαγωγή σε βάζει στο παιχνίδι από την πρώτη στιγμή. Η ήρεμη δύναμη της μελωδίας σου δίνει φτερά. Και τα υπέροχα φωνητικά έρχονται για να σε απογειώσουν. Η εκπληκτική απαλή χροιά και το πάθος τους ξεχωρίζουν και αναστατώνουν τα συναισθήματα σου. Ο ρυθμός ανεβάζει την αδρεναλίνη και κάνει την καρδιά σου να χτυπά δυνατά.”

Lyrics of Kylie Rothfield – Old Man
hot teacher
camp tshirt
all i wanted to do was figure you out
make you want me somehow
a little crush
i couldn’t picture
that in a few more years we’d be on your couch
making out
does it make you feel ashamed
you met me at a younger age
when i was barely seventeen
you probably would’ve still dated me
treat me like a kid in your pocket
keep a picture of me in your wallet
cause in another life I could be your daughter
and you’re only getting older
old man
and i can’t make you younger
old man
may december
do you remember
you had a midlife crisis in 2009
before i could drive
then i was twenty something
afraid of nothing
unaware of what the world could be like
i guess that i was your type
does it make you feel ashamed
to use someone as your escape
treat me like a kid in your pocket
keep a picture of me in your wallet
cause in another life I could be your daughter
and you’re only getting older
old man
you don’t care we’ve got nothing in common
was it everything that you wanted
cause in another life I could be your daughter
and you’re only getting older
old man
and i can’t make you younger
old man
and i can’t make you younger
old man

““Old Man” is an electrifying and empowering anthem about idealizing & falling for an older man, only to realize he’s dating you to feel younger & better about himself. Co-written/produced by female artist Kylie Rothfield & queer indie alt-pop icon Mothé, the track delivers edgy pop rock vibes with analog synths, vintage upright piano, & gritty electric guitars, recorded in a cabinet style for an authentic live band feel. If you love female fronted, edgy, alt pop, and the likes of Olivia Rodrigo, The Beaches, Paramore, Lucy Dacus or Beach Bunny then you will feel right at home. The song will be accompanied by a music video created by Juice Box Films, an award-winning, women-owned production company whose latest short – executive produced by Jason Reitman – is set to show at Sundance 2025.
With Rothfield’s raw lyricism, emotive vocals, and impressive resume – including mentorship by Alicia Keys and collabs with Ryan Tedder (Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Adele), and Ester Dean (Rihanna, Katy Perry), over 1 million streams, and features on major TV networks – “Old Man” is poised to resonate deeply and leave a lasting impression in the indie music scene.

Not Our Song – Ian Abel
“Η μελωδία με την υπέροχη και δροσερή προσέγγιση της σε αναζωογονεί και σου φτιάχνει τη διάθεση. Τα αισθαντικά και φρέσκα φωνητικά ομορφαίνουν τη μέρα και σου γεμίζουν την ψυχή με φως.Όλα γύρω μοιάζουν διαφορετικά. Ο χαρούμενος και ακούραστος ρυθμός δεν σταματά να σε διασκεδάζει και να σου δίνει δύναμη να προχωρήσεις μπροστά.”

Lyrics of Ian Abel – Not Our Song
I know I shouldn’t do this rewind shit with you but
I gotta see you again, can’t get you out of my head
You’re like one of those annoying earworm melodies
If we play one more time, that’s all I need
You say you wanna stay together
But boy nothing lasts forever
You fucked with my heart for too long
This is not our song
We’re so played out
Hit it one more time, baby that’s my way out
My way out
Our song’s so played out, yeah
The elephant in the room
Is how much I used to love you
It’s funny how I misremembered
Winding back your favorite records
You always made me the B-side
While I was always begging for more
But then you chose to make yourself the single
Now you get what you asked for
You fucked with my heart for too long
This is not our song
We’re so played out
Hit it one more time, baby that’s my way out
Yeah the taste of your kiss, the timbre of your cologne
Being with you last night was all I ever wished for
Though something’s changed and I just can’t hate you
No we’re not that good on playback
You fucked with my heart for too long
This is not our song
We’re so played out
Hit it one more time, baby that’s my way out
My way out
Our song’s so played out
It don’t matter now, ooh
Yeah let it play out

Samedi – Damian Boylan
“Οι όμορφες πρωινές δροσοσταλίδες ξεκινούν τη μέρα με τόσο μαγεία και ενθουσιασμό. Η απίστευτη αυτή μελωδία είναι ακριβώς αυτό που χρειαζόμουν. Μια απίστευτή χαρά με διαπερνά και μεθώ από το άγγιγμα της. Μοιάζει σαν όλη η φύση μα ξεδιπλώνεται μπροστά μου χωρίς κανένα δισταγμό. Ο ρυθμός ήρεμα κυλά σαν να μη θέλει να αναστατώσει τη γαλήνια περπλάνησή μου.”

Samedi is the stand out track from composer, producer and visual artist, Damian Boylan’s upcoming debut album ‘Rarefactions’. It’s soft steel drum arpeggios and floating white noise hum, open the track in a wistful, unrestrained, yet curious manner, while the soft driving kick drum and gently unfolding piano steadily increase that sense of yearning. Much like the song’s name, from the French for ‘Saturday’, the track dials into that alluringly familiar feeling of a well spent weekend, driven from sleepy and humble, morning-time beginnings, to a rousing, punchy Roland TB-303 & SH-101 night-time fuelled climax. Mastered by Matt Colton (Jon Hopkins, Four Tet, Thom Yorke, BICEP, Caribou), and conducted with live strings from Air Studios, London (Hans Zimmer, Ólafur Arnalds), Samedi’s rich textures merge with airy choral vocals in a triumphant crescendo, that somehow seems to sum up the full spectrum of human emotion, from the entirely hopeless to the altogether hopeful. The track is supported by an original music video created by the artist himself.
Get Me High – ROTUNES
“Η ευκίνητη και χαρούμενη μελωδία γεμίζει με χρώματα τη μέρα μας. Η διάθεσή μας αλλάζει και όλα μοιάζουν τόσο εύκολα. Τα εντυπωσιακά φωνητικά με τις εκπληκτικές δυνατότητες τους και την δροσιά τους συνθέτουν ένα μοναδικό αναζωογονητικό σκηνικό. Ο ζωντανός ρυθμός δεν σταματά να μας διασκεδάζει και να μας καλεί σε ένα ανέμελο χορό.”

Heart of Hearts – Cave Flowers
“Ο ρυθμός σε ξεσηκώνει και διώχνοντας μακριά τις αναστολές σου βγαίνεις έξω στο φως αδράχνοντας τη μέρα. Η ηλεκτρική κιθάρα σε αναστατώνει και σου δίνει δύναμη να προχωρήσεις, ενώ η όμορφη ροκ μελωδία σε κάνει πιο τολμηρό. Τα εξαιρετικά φωνητικά με την βραχνή χροιά τους ταιριάζουν τόσο επιτυχημένα προσφέροντας μας ένα άρτιο μουσικό αποτέλεσμα.”

Nocturne – A. Blomqvist
“Η ησυχία της φύσης αφήνει τις σκέψεις σου ελεύθερες να βρουν το δρόμο τους. Η γλυκιά και μελαγχολική μελωδία είναι εδώ για να σταθεί δίπλα σου. Με μια νοσταλγική διάθεση σε αφήνει να προχωρήσεις και να κρατήσεις κάτι από όλα αυτά που έζησες. Η καρδιά σου ηρεμεί και μπαίνουν όλα σε μια σειρά καθώς ο ρυθμός ρέει σαν το ήσυχο ποταμάκι.”

Finnish composer A. Blomqvist’s latest album Pohjola, released via XXIM Records on January 17th, is a deeply personal tribute to his Finnish heritage and the enduring spirit of his homeland. The album intricately explores themes of war, peace, tradition, and modernity through evocative compositions. Highlights include the hauntingly beautiful “Nocturne,” a piano-driven piece balancing darkness with serene elegance.
Blomqvist’s artistry is shaped by his grandfathers’ wartime stories and his own experiences as a peacekeeper in the Middle East in 2016. These influences infuse his music with profound emotional depth and a timeless quality. The album weaves together his earliest compositions with personal notebook entries, offering a compelling narrative that resonates on both cultural and human levels.

Candle on the Sill – Shane Pendergast
“Η απαλή ροκ μπαλάντα ζεσταίνει την καρδιά μας και κάνει τα πάντα γύρω να φαίνονται πιο όμορφα. Η υπέροχη χροιά των φωνητικών μας εντυπωσιάζει. Με ειλικρίνεια και αγάπη εκφράζουν τα συναισθήματα τους και δημιουργούν μια ρομαντική ατμόσφαιρα. Ο ήρεμος ρυθμός κάνει τα πάντα γύρω να ησυχάζουν, ώστε μόνο η αγάπη να είναι αυτή που θα ακουστεί.”

Not Your Dream Girl – Jordan Duffy
“Υπέροχο κομμάτι με μελωδία που σου μένει στο μυαλό και σου προκαλεί ευχάριστα συναισθήματα. Ο ρυθμός σε ξεσηκώνει και γίνεται η αφορμή να βγεις έξω στο φως και να δεις τη ζωή διαφορετικά. Τα εξαιρετικά φωνητικά απογειώνουν το κομμάτι και μας μεταφέρουν τη χαρά τους αλλά και το πάθος τους. Η ξεχωριστή χροιά τους σε μαγνητίζει.”

Perfect Rules – Thomas And The Angry Hearts
“Το απίστευτο, μαγικό άγγιγμα της μελωδίας σου ανοίγει νέους ορίζοντες, όπου η χαρά σε περιμένει. Τα ζεστά φωνητικά με την μοναδική βραχνή χροιά τους είναι τόσο οικεία μαζί σου. Νιώθεις την μεγάλη αγκαλιά τους να σε περιβάλει. Ο εύθυμος ρυθμός κάνει τις στεναχώριες σου να εξαφανιστούν και τη θέση τους να πάρουν όμορφες σκέψεις.”

Not in the Mood – deegie
“Ωραία μελωδία που ανεβάζει την αδρεναλίνη σου από την πρώτη στιγμή και κάνει την καρδιά σου να χτυπά δυνατά. Τα φωνητικά ρέουν με τόση ευκολία και με την δυναμική παρουσία τους, σου δίνουν φτερά για να πετάξεις ψηλά. Ο ξέφρενος ροκ ρυθμός γίνεται το κατάλληλο τονωτικό σου και μια απελευθερωτική δύναμη σε διαπερνά.”

Lyrics of deegie – Not in the Mood
Verse 1
I’ve kept my mouth shut, nice and pretty, never bare my teeth or bite
I’ve tried to be an angel good girl but keep choking on my lines
I know it’s not punk, know it’s silly, to talk about wrong and right
But you still don’t get it
You act so brainless, such a loser, but you think you’re spitting fire
Believe you’re God’s gift to creation but you’re the lowest form of life
Try to explain it, know it’s useless, to penetrate your empty mind
I just can’t help it
Chorus
You don’t care bout my point of view
I wonder what’s the point of you?
You can say that you don’t want me
but you’re coming like you do
You’ve got eyes for me
So you should see that I’m not in the
Verse 2
Same universe as you
But you’re still filling up the void
Aren’t your delusions cute?
You think you influence my choice
You seem confused, I’m sorry, dude
I’m going home with all my toys
Cause you’ll never get it
Pre
Nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah
Chorus
You don’t care bout my point of view
I wonder what’s the point of you?
You can say that you don’t want me
but you’re coming like you do
You’ve got eyes for me
So you should see that I’m not in the mood (oo oo, oo oo)
I’m not in the mood (for you oo)
You can say that you don’t want me
But you’re coming like you do
Why don’t you smile for me?
You best believe that I’m not in the mood
Bridge
Nah nah nah nah
Use your other head
Nah nah nah nah
It’s giving desperate
Nah nah nah nah
But I could care less
Nah nah nah nah (nah nah nah)
Chorus 3
You don’t care bout my point of view
I wonder what’s the point of you
You can say that you don’t want me
but you’re coming like you do
You’ve got eyes for me
So you should see that I’m not in the mood
You don’t care bout my point of view
I wonder what’s the point of you
You can say that you don’t want me
but you’re coming like you do
Why don’t you smile for me?
You best believe that I’m not in the mood (oo oo, oo oo)
I’m not in the mood (for you oo)
So many issues with your mommy
I’m not here to work them through
Why don’t you smile for me?
You best believe that I’m not in the mood
