ariadne mila - think i should’ve ghosted you
The vibey pop of Ariadne Mila’s new single is bittersweet bliss. Her breathy lilting voice drifts and soars as she calls out an ex who fetishized her Filipino skin, relegating her to an “adventure” that “just stopped being fun.”
Royal Angst & Anoton Johansen - Hell & Back - Duet Version
The acoustic heart-strained highlight of Royal Angst’s last album now explodes with a full band treatment and the grungey drawl of Anton Johansen.
Fun with Ether - Crown Shyness
Prog-rock detours and robust production meet Fun with Ether’s dream-pop reverie and chorused guitars. It’s a great addition to FWE’s intriguing and mysterious discography.
Italia - brownsville in the summer ft conscious vibe & jacob jenni
A heartfelt chilled-out slice of summertime blues featuring three of some of the most distinct but complementary vocalists.
Jacob Jenni - Oh My Stars and Garters
Usually, Jacob Jenni’s vocals take a backseat to his oddity-filled pop sound, but in his new single, his vocals are finely layered and more soulful than ever.
Mark Allan Atwood - Island Man
A sincere folk anthem that paints a radiant picture of South Padre Island serenity. Also, hear Atwood talk more about “where music meets the beach” on The Texas Music Scene TV.
Monodyssey - White-Eyed Pharaoh
A single we missed way back in January, but Monodyssey’s intense self-titled EP has just dropped after a two-year rollout. It’s sharp with prog-metal literacy, groove metal fun, and epic depictions of myth and royalty.
Pillowsnake - X’s CROSS THA O’s
Pillowsnake’s current streak of singles continues with more breakbeats and commanding riffage. It’s noisy and frenzied, yet one of the more tuneful and catchier songs of Pillownsake’s output.
