The Turnaround’s new self‑titled EP is a warm, globe‑trotting collection of six songs built around Daniel de Boer’s intimate bass and vocals. From Texel to Berlin, each track spotlights musicians from across the world, and their different roots seep into the arrangements without ever feeling forced. Opening cut “Keep You Close” pairs a gentle bassline…
Francesca Pichierri – “Anime Vaghe”Pichierri pairs hushed piano with a solo that feels almost confessional, then lifts the roof with a choir‑driven chorus that pushes you out of your seat. It’s equal parts vulnerability and rallying cry, perfect for that film moment when doubt flips to determination. Gus Defelice – “Starlight”A glowing synth swell meets a searing…
Rome’s Solo Artist Turns a Memory into Music That Speaks Without Words There’s a kind of restraint in AfterGlow Bridge that’s rare. The single from Indomitus Pax, a solo composer and producer based in Rome, doesn’t build with bombast or collapse into cliche. Instead, it unfolds gently, like someone turning over a memory in their…
There’s something instantly disarming about Julandjim’s The Duchess Melody. Built around a delicate, looping motif, the track feels like it drifts out of a film you haven’t seen but somehow remember. Drawing on influences like David Lynch, Air, François de Roubaix, and Philip Glass, this isn’t music that demands attention, it lingers. Julandjim’s approach is…
Marcela Rivera’s debut single Little Creature doesn’t feel like a career launch, it feels like a personal letter accidentally made public. Written during her pregnancy and built at home with her husband Tony Peñalva. It’s simple, light on its feet, and emotionally raw without being sentimental. Rivera plays lead guitar and percussion, while Tony holds…

It’s brutally honest, sometimes ridiculous,…
Montréal solo project finds power and peace in brutal cold “STORM” by THE NORTHERN TUNDRA is heavy, focused, and built without compromise. The Montréal-based solo artist handles everything alone, pulling influence from Gojira, Meshuggah, and Northlane, but keeping it personal. It’s not about speed or complexity. It’s about weight. Repetition is used with intention. The…
Jacqueline Kroft’s The First Blossom is a refreshing take on spring’s quiet arrival. Building on her previous release Arpeggios of Raindrops, the track uses her signature piano work to capture the delicate moment when the earth begins to awaken. Kroft’s melodies feel like the first buds breaking through the ground—subtle yet full of life. The…
Larry Karpenko’s “The River” is a beautifully layered piece that draws deeply from both personal experience and spiritual imagery. Inspired by the Shenandoah River and his own journey through college, Karpenko’s song reflects the idea of a peaceful, safe space, much like the river itself: a metaphor for connection, security, and divine love. The track…
Juno Empire’s latest single Seeds is a high-voltage thought experiment disguised as a synth-pop anthem. It’s a track that moves, not just with rhythm, but with intention – digging into how we carry time, how memories linger, and how possibility never really leaves us alone. At first listen, it sounds like a vibrant indie banger…
