ADLR Shares New EP ‘Very Sophisticated’
Multi-instrumentalist, singer, and electronic musician ADLR releases his latest EP ‘Very Sophisticated’. Mixed, produced and mastered by ADLR, the dynamic four-track EP spans genres, focusing on French house, nu-disco and indietronica with the lead single ‘Won’t Let This One End’ taking centre stage.
‘Won’t Let This One End’ takes on the unpredictability of being young and dating in NYC and the constant fleeting feelings all in the pursuit of finding one that lasts. With a cycle that can be mentally draining, the track advocates living in the moment and staying present as a way to ensure “this one” a chance to last. The music reflects the mood ebbing and flowing throughout, incorporating electronic and analogue elements seamlessly with smooth lead guitar sections and funky basslines entangling with electronic drums and pads that frame the vocals perfectly.
ADLR on the EP “Sonically, I’ve been inspired by the music scene in brooklyn, and wanted to incorporate some of the more metallic sounding elements I’ve been hearing at a lot of the techno-focused clubs in the area. At the same time, I wanted to combine that vision with my vocals and funky guitar/synth style. “Very Sophisticated” as a name is meant to be taken ironically. I’ve always felt a lot of pressure to put more effort into creating some sort of brand image behind it to try and stand out. This is me going overboard, which is a theme for the EP in general.”
With more tracks in the pipeline and plenty of upcoming shows, you’ll be sure to see a lot more of ADLR in the coming months.

SweetCandy! reveals the truth behind new release “ISOLATED DISPOSITION”
SweetCandy! latest release of “ISOLATED DISPOSITION,” a single that doesn’t just talk but also confesses, opens up a very open space. The song was written right after a fight, and it has a lot of emotional baggage that most artists would be too scared to show. SweetCandy! doesn’t give up, it pushes all the way in.
“ISOLATED DISPOSITION” is how isolating it feels to be alone and not understood. But instead of blaming others, the story looks inward and reveals a deeper truth, being alone can often be a choice. The song gets to the point, shutting down only makes the emotional distance between us and others bigger.
There isn’t any effort to make things better or hide the pain, SweetCandy! talks openly about how hard it is to want to be understood while also keeping things that would help people understand you. A lot of people who hear it will know right away that it doesn’t make sense.
“ISOLATED DISPOSITION” seems like a turning point in the end. It shows that people are ready to be more responsible, grow, and be honest with each other in the future. SweetCandy! makes it clear that being open about your feelings isn’t a sign of weakness, it’s the way to be truly seen in a world where it can feel dangerous to do so.

Shweta Harve sings of love that stands strong like a Tree on “Have You Loved Like a Tree?”
Shweta Harve’s latest release, “Have You Loved Like a Tree?” gently prompts listeners to reflect on how we think about love today. She uses a tree as a metaphor to show that love is stable, patient, and unchanging, rather than short-lived or performative.
Harve takes listeners to a place where they can think about their own experiences and the emotional truths they share with others. At its most basic level, the song is about unconditional love, love that gives without expecting anything in return, protects without being seen, and is always there even when you don’t see it.
The lyrics say, “Just like a tree, I will never fold / I will only give, endure, and grow / I’ll hold you close, I’ll let you go,” which is the heart of the song. Harve paints love as something that endures through storms, distance, and silence, just as trees endure through changing seasons. That picture has a quiet power that stays with you long after the song is over.
