It’s been over a year since I last saw Tenille Arts perform at Canvas Manchester, where we had the chance to interview her. Since then, she’s released a collaborative song with LeAnn Rimes, opened for Luke Bryan on his Canadian tour dates, and seen her latest album, To Be Honest, featured in Time Square Spotify billboard ads. Things are certainly looking promising for the Canadian country singer.

Floating Points has released a new three song mini-ep titled “Ocotillo”. It is hard to accurately describe everything that is going on in these tracks with words. I wish I could formulate three quick sentences that just made it so you went and gave these tracks a go and listened to them as soon as possible. The more people that listened to this music the quicker, the better off we would be. When I hear these tracks, they feel so refreshing. 

Blink-182 has dropped two new singles, "All In My Head" and "No Fun," which will be featured on their upcoming album, One More Time… Part 2. These tracks stay true to the band's signature sound, echoing the familiar sonic and stylistic vibes that long-time fans will recognize.

Fie Eike has just released a new track titled “Fluid.” If you haven't listened to Fie before, I highly recommend exploring her other projects before, during, or after reading this article. Born and raised in Denmark, Fie crafts atmospheric, vibey songs with subtle yet impactful vocals. Her early releases have all revolved around the theme of water, and the production on these tracks is exceptional. Every element feels cohesive, from the structure of the parts to the unique sounds that surface throughout. Fie has a remarkable talent for weaving together different elements, ensuring that not only do they stand out individually, but they also collectively reinforce the overarching theme of her music.

Halsey has released a new pop/rock/punk banger titled “Lonely is the Muse”. This track makes me, as a person in the age range 22-30, pretty nostalgic. Even to someone that had a front row seat to the wave of pop punk songs released in the 2000’s, the track still feels fresh. Halsey delivers heart-wrenching vocals, mixing smooth harmonies with her lead vocal which at some points also goes over into screaming. The backing music is basic instruments, but very well played. Drums, guitar and bass. The distorted guitars are not taking over, but are filling up a lot of empty room just on their own.

The artist under review today goes by several names. He has released six solo albums under his own name, “Luke Temple”; another four as “Here We Go Magic”; three as his alter ego “Art Feynman”; and the album under review is released with his new group, “Cascading Moms.”

Diamond-certified and award-winning artist The Weeknd revealed his 2024 tour dates in Australia, extending his record-breaking 2022/2023 After Hours Til Dawn Tour. Produced by Live Nation, the Australia leg will start on Saturday, October 5, in Melbourne with back-to-back shows, followed by performances in Sydney on October 22 and 23 at Accor Stadium. These shows will mark The Weeknd’s first-ever stadium performances in Australia and his return to the region since 2017. Mike Dean, Chxrry22, and Sydney’s own Anna Lunoe will be joining as support for the four Australia dates.

Die With A Smile is the latest banger released by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars. Bruno is following his own footsteps and carrying on towards a more soulful path. I am personally very pleased to see Lady Gaga hop on the same path and walk with Bruno, if only for a little while. There is a lot to say about Bruno Mars. How incredibly soulful his songwriting is, the raw power emanating from his voice and much more. I think this track shows that whatever you are going to compliment Bruno Mars for, you can just as well do the same for Lady Gaga.

Whenever Moses Sumney comes to mind, it’s hard not to imagine him parting seas or enchanting creatures—biblical allusions that might seem cliché at first. Yet, in many ways, they’re not far off the mark. Sumney’s music, particularly in his previous album Græ, felt like a vast, living ocean—a place where all manner of sonic beings thrived, with silence acting as a powerful, sea-dividing force. In a genre that often fears quiet, Sumney embraced it, making every pause as meaningful as the sound it framed.

Previously, we reviewed “These Dreams Are Killing Me,” a single by Louis Cole that served as a preview for “Nothing,” the album we will discuss in this article.
