Justin Timberlake, one of the absolute kings of music, has released a new track titled “Drown.” This track follows the release of his previous single “Selfish” and is set to be part of his upcoming album “Thought It Was.” This whole album is set to be released on March 15, 2024, which, to a lot of people's happiness, is very soon. The mood of the track is an absolute pre-bedroom banger. It has a lot of dark sounds with modern R&B/Pop elements and Justin Timberlake’s ever so catchy vocal lines. Reaching for a certain sound, his latest single “Selfish” did not do as well on the billboards as one would expect. However, does this really matter? For the artist it might, but as the audience it is better to just listen to the tracks for what they are. Something that is interesting is that if you remember some of the absolute great hits from Justin like “Mirror,” for example, you still hear a very similar choice of melody in his song. He has found his way to greatness and managed to stay in that zone for so very long.

Jacob Collier, known for being one of the great virtuoso musicians of our time, has also become well known for releasing really solid solo-written tracks. This latest release is a cover of the classic Simon & Garfunkel song "Bridge Over Troubled Water."

Donny Benét just released a new 3-track single titled “Forbidden Love” with previously released tracks "American Dream","Multiply," and the new track being "Forbidden Love." To many indieheads, Donny Benét is sort of a godfather figure. He is not on the same level of popularity as many other indie acts; some would argue undeservingly so. I think so too. As for his fans, I think they are a very dedicated bunch.

Ramati is an artist who, in just two years, has gathered over 100k monthly listeners on Spotify. Remarkably, she's achieved this without relying heavily on collaborations, with only 9 singles under her belt. What's more intriguing is her minimalist online presence—no artist website to boast of, just a modest footprint on Tumblr and Twitter. It's evident she isn't pouring resources into heavy marketing campaigns. This serves as a testament to the belief that an artist's true success lies in their raw talent, and Ramati is living proof of that.

Jizue's newest single got released a few days ago and it kicks off with a mallet instrument shaping a theme so annoyingly overused and recognizable, akin to a “perfect life in New York before the apocalypse” movie scene. The initial statement is not other than the iconic opening bars of Pachelbel's Canon in D. But wait in your seat, because what follows is an eclectic musical roller coaster with sugar levels reaching diabetical proportions. Imagine this: math-rock intricacies collide head-on with jazzy harmonies and improvisation, sprinkled with stereotypical motifs from a Japanese TV melodrama, alongside occasional quotes from Pachelbel's Canon.

Adrianne Lenker has released a drumless and bassless banger titled "Fool." This track would go well over the melting winter snow and a cup of tea. Along with the track follows a video—an extremely wholesome video. The video captures a group of people in cowboy hats dancing weirdly and freely to the track. It also has dogs living their best life. The video goes very well with the song. If you are a regular fan of Adrianne Lenker, you might find that her voice and melodic soul are very well represented in this song, but the instrumentation is a bit different to what you have heard before. Anyhow, it all comes together very well.

Jacob Collier's eagerly anticipated "Djesse Vol. 4" album release is now just days away, and the avant-garde virtuoso excites us with a final preview, this time in collaboration with the acclaimed Colombian pop sensation Camilo.

The platinum-selling artist, Jordan Davis, brought his pop-country vibe to a sold-out show in Manchester on Sunday night, supported by the emerging talent Ashley Cooke, as part of their ongoing Damn Good Time World Tour across Europe.

Dua Lipa is back with another banging hit titled 'Training Season.' Dua Lipa is continuing to push for her title for Queen of Pop, and I would say if she isn’t there already, she is getting closer every day. Following the release of her hit 'Houdini,' she continues in the same fashion with extremely catchy love-themed songs with a little bit of a twist to them. The track 'Houdini' was perfectly simple, like so simple and catchy that you can’t even imagine how much work went into making it that way. The theme of 'Training Season' is that of Dua Lipa searching for the right partner. She is stating her needs and requirements and seems sort of fed up with the whole process of trying to find someone who can truly appreciate her. The featured music video goes hand in hand with this, and I highly recommend you to watch it. It basically shows a lot of men trying to get Dua’s attention, but it seems all of them fail.

Girl in Red has just dropped her latest track, titled "Too Much". The accompanying video portrays a couple ensnared in a silent conflict, one desperately seeking attention from the other but failing to garner it, leading them to feel overwhelmed by their own presence.
