Fake Dad Mesmerizes Listeners With Electrifying New Single “I Like The Beach”

Indie alternative duo Fake Dad delivers a mesmerizing track paying homage to their playful, profound romance with their new single “I Like The Beach,” out now. Andrea de Varona and Josh Ford come together to create the stylistic fusion that is Fake Dad. Beyond their music careers, Andrea and Josh – from their Brooklyn studio apartment – are happily in love; Andrea wrote this song about Josh, and the two went on to record and produce this track in their home studio. Residing somewhere between the stylings of artists like Brittany Howard, Nirvana, and FINNEAS, Fake Dad delivers a signature, eccentric modern sound. A necessity for any indie lover, this track fuses electronic indie rock with gritty soul giving listeners an ideal record to zen out to.

The color that shines through in “I Like The Beach” – a gorgeous hue reflecting the deepness of their connection – yields an enticing signature sound from the marriage of their unique individual styles. The duo drew inspiration from film scores composed by Trent Reznor when creating the soundscape behind “I Like The Beach.” The foundation of this track resides in the smooth bass line and haunting lead vocal; Fake Dad built the rest of the track from those two elements. Dewey keys and arpeggiated synths paint decadent harmony across this track, softly caressing de Varona’s poignant vocals. Self-produced under the mentorship of Grammy award-winning producer Swagg R’Celious (H.E.R., Kehlani, and Alicia Keys), this duo has created an unmistakable sound that is quintessentially Fake Dad. Listeners can find “I Like The Beach” on all major streaming platforms now.

Leyla Romanova finds strength in silence on new release “Self-Control”

Leyla Romanova‘s new single, “Self-Control,” is a powerful emotional release that feels more like a manifesto for surviving modern chaos than a song. In a world of opinions, urgency, and emotional exhaustion, Romanova offers a track based on one radical idea: not reacting.

“Self-Control” immediately creates tension and clarity. The drums keep everything together with discipline and purpose. As the textured instrumentals expand like waves of thought through a crowded mind, the bass anchors the listener emotionally.

The contrast between outside noise and inside stillness makes the song compelling. Romanova’s work captures the feeling of being overwhelmed by pressure, opinions, and distractions while silently retaining personal peace. There are no major uprisings. But restraint is power. The song knows energy conservation is a survival strategy.

J’mall expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own on “Unattainable”

J’mall’s latest single, “Unattainable,” expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own. The song explores the emotional void caused by constant comparison rather than motivation.

“Unattainable” is about realizing that no matter how hard one works to meet others’ expectations, the reward will never be satisfying. J’mall explores the stress of “keeping up with the Joneses” and the exhaustion of comparing yourself to standards that weren’t meant for you.

The song’s honesty resonates, the message doesn’t feel preachy or polished. It feels personal, like J’mall is sharing life lessons. The record’s quiet strength is its embrace of individuality and personal responsibility without pretending it’s easy.
