“LONELY” by Anna Thoresen hits home with an anthem for resilience and isolated dreamer
Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Anna Thoresen’s latest single, “LONELY,” intricately explores emotional vulnerability and resilience. This sonic revelation proves that we can sometimes find the truest versions of ourselves worth celebrating in isolation. Drawing stylistically from the unfiltered tapestry of Alanis Morissette’s influences, Joan Jett’s rebellious spirit, and the soulful grit associated with Janis Joplin, this track acknowledges its inspirations and establishes a distinctive sonic identity.
The entire production process of the song “LONELY” was exclusively executed by Thoresen within the confined sanctuary of her home studio, including recording, mixing, and mastering. It encapsulates a narrative of artistic evolution from a state of introspective subtlety to one of assertive expression. The track’s minimal production ethos accentuates a DIY authenticity that renders it immediately engaging. Intriguing guitar sounds imbue the piece with rhythmic tension, while Thoresen’s vocal delivery adeptly echoes Anna’s struggles and emotional turmoil stemming from her relocation to Los Angeles, juxtaposing the dichotomy of a city that paradoxically feels bustling yet very isolating.
A notable aspect of “LONELY” lies in its dual thematic nature: it is both a poignant meditation on solitude and an anthem of self-empowerment. Thoresen’s lyrics are crafted with an unvarnished truthfulness that strikes a chord with anyone who has grappled with loneliness in densely populated yet emotionally desolate environments. Her capacity to transform these sentiments into a dynamic, cathartic artistic release underscores her formidable songwriting acumen.
Through “LONELY,” Anna Thoresen does more than convey her narrative; she creates an immersive experience that invites listeners to connect with her emotional odyssey. The track serves as a potent reminder that while loneliness can be burdensome, it can sometimes catalyze resilience and personal fortitude. Thoresen’s artistry significantly adds to the music landscape, promising she is an emerging voice of noteworthy potential.

Malammore unveils a new voice rising from portugal’s margins on new album “Aurora”
Malammore, whose real name is Sandro Feliciano, is a singer, songwriter, and producer from Lisbon, Portugal. “Aurora” is his first album. The album comes out on January 23 and tells the story of his life as a young Black man, his search for belonging, and his country’s cultural resistance. The lyrics talk about love, adoption, thoughts on humanity, and how the artist sees his role in the world. The concept for the album originated from a notebook containing poems, narratives, and my self-perception within this world. It’s a record of the Black experience in Portugal, of belonging and feeling alone, of love and loss.
Sandro, also known as Malammore, was born in 2005 and lived with the Portuguese State for two years until he was adopted in 2008, which was a big change in his life. One of the main ideas in Aurora is to turn the idea of a “black hole” into “the world’s white hole,” which shows a universe that erases identities. He challenges dominant narratives and changes how people see black bodies in society by filling it with the idea of blackness.
The album mixes hip-hop, rap, trap, and spoken word, which is not something that is usually done. Malammore gets the political tone of the project from people like Malcolm X, Muhammad Ali, Angela Davis, and Fela Kuti. No Icon (Rodrigo Fernandes) did the production, mixing, and mastering for the album at Lisbon Sound Society.
