A roundup of new RGV music, with some lamenting singer-songwriters, a thrilling anime tribute, and gothic cumbia fun.

Savant Fossa - Sandcastle

Savant Fossa laments about memories and better times washed away like a sandcastle, while he delivers his own massive wave of longing, mournful synths in his glossy new single.

Theda Jane - Redlow Boy

It’s the first single from singer-songwriter Theda Jane’s second album, which has been three years in the making. It explores both new and familiar territory. A dejected feeling matches its plodding pace, and while her signature bass-first approach is left intact, her vocals have more ache than anything heard in the angsty, artsy piano-rock of her last album “Rotten Teeth.”

Valley Swerve - Chainsaw Man Trailer (Chill Breakbeat Mix)

Valley Swerve adds another thrilling anime tribute to their discography. The chilling soundscape and kinetic breakbeat builds anticipation for the recent Chainsaw Man TV series adaptation.

Vince Spano - Been There Before (feat. Saint Odin, Tris In Bloom & Noego)

Singer-songwriter Vince Spano’s second single of 2022 is a woozy, swooning, and tender ballad, with help from 10FootOverhead to bolster this bittersweet passion.

NOIMNOTWHITE - Hell

A spooky hip-hop beat, warbly moping vocals, and haunting imagery to add to the noimnotwhite cinematic universe.

Fronterawave - Calavera

Morbid curiosity, hauntology, and Hispanic lore pervade these gothic cumbia vignettes. Its dilapidated production, eerily slow speeds, and droning repetition are intoxicating to get lost in.
