BBC Introducing Picks, Livvy Lauren’s Genuine and Raw Pop Ballad, “Who You Are” As Record Of The Week
BBC Introducing has chosen a personal, honest track., “Who You Are” from London, UK area based singer/songwriter Livvy Lauren as its Record Of The Week. The second single of Livvy’s that the BBC has added to their rotation after the artist’s last release, named “Messin’.”
Livvy Lauren, a self-proclaimed adrenaline lover, takes inspiration from contemporaries like Ella Henderson, Sam Smith, Jorja Smith, and Doja Cat, whose dynamic performances and energizing lyrics stand out to Livvy above all others. The prolific singer/songwriter says “Who You Are” is a “truthful pop ballad based around a desperation for the person you love to be open, honest, and a true version of themselves.”
Over the last couple of years, Livvy has written over 50 songs, finding that her creativity blossoms at night and while driving. “The numeral of times I have had to drag over to voice record something on my phone or step outside the house late at night to hum a new melody is ridiculous,” she laughs. Her new release, “Who You Are,” as well as other recent releases, “50/50” and “Messin’,” are the products of that creativity.
Livvy Lauren has a new performance video for “Who You Are” coming out in October 2022 and is planning performances in and around London. Livvy worked with US-based producer/songwriter Alex Houton of AHM Media, who found her online and reached out to work with her. The two wrote and recorded remotely, at London’s Metropolis Studios, during the lockdowns of the pandemic. The lyric video for “Who You Are” can be found on YouTube.

The trapheaux gracefully glides over in new release “Marble Floors”
Trapheauxly’s latest release, “Marble Floors,” is a smooth, seductive single that combines clean, complex rap verses with melodic R&B. The song’s production, soulful vocal harmonies, and steady rhythmic pulse create a luxurious yet emotionally grounded atmosphere. All of these elements work together to create this atmosphere.
The most impressive aspect of it is the way it shifts from a catchy melodic hook to a rapid-fire delivery of the lyrics. One moment, “Marble Floors” is silky smooth, and the next, it is razor sharp. This contrast is what gives the musical its identity.
When it comes to lyrical concerns of intimacy, devotion, and elevated aesthetics, the image of marble floors appears, time and time again, as a symbol of elegance and emotional weight. Trapheauxly is a polished package that combines style, substance, and value that cannot be denied in terms of replay value.

NIHLNØTHING unleashes increased tides on new release “ocean” Power
NIHLNØTHING’s latest release, “Ocean” is a powerful, immersive single that defies classification as heavy music. The track sounds huge, punishing, and emotionally complex, as the title promises, drawing on post-metal, alternative metal, sludge, groove metal, metalcore, and deathcore.
A sense of depth makes “ocean” appealing. The song balances atmosphere and intensity like a violent current under calm waters. This track has towering sonic weight and textured melodic darkness, suggesting it can go from hypnotic tension to explosive release in a heartbeat.
Genre DNA enables NIHLNØTHING to create something expansive. It has sludge, groove, metalcore urgency, and a post-metal mood that’s probably more than aggression. NIHLNØTHING excels in contrasting crushing weight with atmosphere, chaos with control, and brutality with reflection. Balance distinguishes loud from powerful music.
