Cyril Durant – Love is a Drug
“The final product of the song is not what it began as. I started the idea at the beginning of the pandemic. The initial concept I want was the longing to be close to someone but still having to be far away. There were already many songs coming out with the idea, so I went with an uptempo pop love ballad, with a catchy hook.”
Boozy Bee – Too Litt
Jaded – Luv Luv Crazy
The song alludes to heartbreak, battles with mental health, and substance abuse, which are all areas that I believe many young people can relate to.
Luv Shima x yoku – 6 PM SUNDAY
This song was written during a hard time in my life and I just had a sudden surge of inspiration.
Deidara Black – Break Fast
Break Fast represents the fragility associated with Love and the emotions felt during the negative cycle of heartbreak. Rounded off by a psychedelic electric guitar rift representing sinking further into negativity and numbness.
This song includes a Visual Loop that can be supplied on request.
Brodie Milner – An Open Letter
‘When I asked her about it, she told me that her predictions about the pandemic and current political system often came true, even though she was told by many that she was just overly anxious. She then told me that she felt burdened with the task of trying to fix things by convincing people otherwise, just like the mythological character.’
Rich – Need Time
This song is about having the capacity to learn to fight your own mental battles and becoming comfortable in your own company. It has a minimalist approach, I hope you enjoy it a lot and thank you!
Timo6ka – Midnight Swingset
Midnight Swingset is an Emo Anthem song!! Oliver Tree vibes, very shouty, filled with 808s and guitars. It’s about the last kiss, about pain in relationships, about hurt and love persevering through it.
ichi x NOZAKA – SUMMER RAIN
Hennerz – 2 Far Gone
This track is a pop-punk/ hip hop/ alternative track that brings high summer vibes about love/ heartbreak & having a good time with good people. Very easy to listen to and was inspired by a girl I used to see & the struggles of abandonment issues from my mother.
Alx the Ace – X1
This song was written after the sudden death of my father. I was 21 at the time and was suffering from isolation, lack of motivation, and going through a dark night of the soul. Music was my only solace. This song is a representation of my inner conflict.
ArieS. – My Life
Just a little insight into who I am. It felt like a playful track so I experimented with some creative patterns and punches.
Trent In The Trees – End of the World Blues
This is the second single on my upcoming project Stelladellic. The song is called End of the world blues. I went with a psychedelic/retro feel on this track. Please vibe out and send me your thoughts! Thanks!
1BREATH – CUT IT OUT
Grizfolk – Now That I Know
This new era of Grizfolk may best be described as an eponymous genre encompassing both the band’s name as well as their sound, created during a time of extreme planetary tension and only succeeding because of the sense of camaraderie the four players were able to maintain despite the circumstances.

“Subterranean Homesick Blues” finds a new direction through Ghost of Panama
Rearranging a song that carries six decades of cultural weight is a creative challenge, but Ghost of Panama approaches “Subterranean Homesick Blues” with clear purpose. The rock band radically reworks Bob Dylan’s counter-culture hit, reshaping its identity while keeping its rebellious spirit. It’s a tribute to musical heritage and a statement of artistic independence all in one.
This new interpretation is very much shaped by the production, made at Ghost of Panama’s home studio in West London. The setting allows an intimate approach to reinterpreting a familiar song and lets the group engage directly with the material, taking it in a new artistic direction.
“Subterranean Homesick Blues” centers on the tension between conservation and transformation. Ghost of Panama is true to the song’s rebellious spirit without adding to its legacy, and this approach gives the release an adventurous feel, grounded in countercultural energy but driven by a desire to see what the composition can become in a different musical context.
Their version of this 60-year-old classic shows that respecting a song’s history can also mean breaking the rules and finding new ways to express its spirit. Fundamentally, “Subterranean Homesick Blues” presents Ghost of Panama as artists who want to engage with the past without being tied to it. The release’s strongest identity is a familiar heritage reimagined through a singularly forward-looking creative vision.

“NO MORE” by Amanda Holley connects healing, awakening, and survival
“NO MORE“ carries that kind of emotional weight, and some songs feel like they come from lived experience but reach for something bigger. Amanda Holley blends R&B and soul, turning a lifetime of survival into a vision of healing, awakening, and the determination to move beyond what caused the pain.
“NO MORE“ is a healing anthem for people who have gone through bad experiences and reached a place of higher awareness, but it’s also an emotionally charged protest. The duality is introspective and outward-looking at the same time, turning personal survival into a broader declaration that some experiences, conditions, or cycles should end.
Holley had a premonition of the song six months before the world went into global shutdown. In the vocal booth, working out melodies with her collaborators, she pictured people in the streets. Those images were hard to imagine at the time, but subsequent events would make them painfully familiar.
“NO MORE“ is given a particularly contemplative underpinning by the context. The identity of R&B and soul leaves room for emotion. The song’s themes link survival, awakening, resistance, and the need for change. Amanda Holley is an artist using music to process personal endurance and a broader sense of social awakening. It’s got a complicated significance, and its release feels like a glimpse of a moment when personal intuition and public reality collided in an unexpected way.
