Ari Fraser slows it down with “Where Have You Been”
Ari Fraser’s latest single, “Where Have You Been,” dives deeper into emotional waters with a ballad that aches in all the right places but never loses its footing. With the very first note, Fraser dives wholeheartedly into an open space, letting silence, space, and subtle textures do as much storytelling as his voice.
His delivery is intimate, almost fragile ness at times, but never weak. Instead, there’s a subdued strength underpinning it, as if every note has the undercurrent both of a regretful bite and of the courage to hope for better. It’s that balance that lends the track its emotional heft. If anything, Fraser doesn’t hurry the moment; he lets it breathe.
The production takes this emotional journey to sublime heights. It starts sparse, almost delicate, eventually increasing in texture and depth. Layers build tantalizingly, enfolding his vocal performance without obscuring it. The effect is a sound that feels both vast and intimate, as if you’re alone in a cavernous room of memories.
“What Have You Been” excels in its slow burn. It simmers rather than chasing a dramatic climax, and it becomes more affecting by the second. The plea, at its center, feels specific and lived-in, yet broad enough to speak to anyone who has ever wished for answers or reconciliation. With this release, Fraser shows he knows that the most powerful moments in music aren’t always loud. Sometimes they’re just honest and doesn’t just pluck at the heartstrings, it stays there, quietly rumbling long after the last note has stopped.

Dyss unveils love, passion, and doubt with new release “LOVE IS BLIND”
Dyss digs deep into emotional territory with his latest single, “LOVES IS BLIND,” turning feelings into an enveloping experience. From the very outset, the track draws listeners into a hypnotic soundscape that feels at once intimate and grand. It’s a record that doesn’t merely play, it lingers, settling around you long after the last note has evaporated.
The opening is in French rap, giving Dyss a unique vibe from the start. That rhythm feels intentional, and almost pulls you into his world before seamlessly moving into English rap. That change isn’t purely linguistic, it’s emotional. The switch between languages reflects the back-and-forth of passion and uncertainty at the heart of the track. It’s a daring, creative decision that underscores the universality of the song’s theme, love, in all its beautiful fuzziness.
The production is simmering below the surface, unintrusive but always there. There’s a hypnotic thrum to the beat, a subtle energy that enables Dyss’s soulful, lived-in vocals to shine. He balances cockiness with gutsy exposure, offering lines that feel both intimate and deeply universal. Every inflection carries the tension between desire and doubt.
Dtutter’s feature adds an electric contrast to the mix, quick and flashy, his presence raises the emotional stakes of the track. The chemistry between Dyss and Dtutter is both natural and electric, passing the song back and forth in a way that turns it into more than just a solo statement.

Dam CPH turns late-night thoughts into sound on “In My Head,”
Dam CPH steps confidently into the dark with “In My Head,” a single that is less song than late-night confession you were never meant to overhear. It’s disconcerting, close-up and weirdly addictive, the sort of track that stays with you long after its last note evaporates.
Constructed from creepy minimalism and dark experimental pop, the production leaves plenty of negative space, allowing every breath and beat to echo like footsteps in an abandoned corridor. The female vocals swim through the track like ghosts passing down empty corridors, far away and highly personal. There’s a fragility to them, too, but also an unsettling steadiness, as though calmly describing emotional turmoil from the eye of the storm.
Then the rap verse kicks in, sudden, jarring, deliberately off-kilter. It arrives like the flip of a broken light switch in the dark, you want to be illuminated, but all you can see is flickers and distortion. That tension is the rhythm of the track. It evokes the experience of being stuck in your mind, replaying moments that will not recede.
