Valkyrie Unveil Electric New Single “Yaddy Ya”

New Zealand duo Valkyrie have returned with their brand-new single, “Yaddy Ya”. Despite only bursting on the scene a few years ago, they’ve already had plenty of success in their homeland, which includes a nationwide tour, multiple festival appearances and their debut EP topping the charts. With “Yaddy Ya”, the duo look set to capitalise on their momentum and reach even greater heights.

The high-octane track perfectly captures the spirit of the duo – electric energy, catchy melodies, punchy lyrics and endless replay value. It’s enhanced further with an accompanying music video directed by Shae Sterling. Filmed vertically, it complements the fun-loving, youthful spirit and liveliness of the song and makes for a fascinating watch – almost as if they’re inviting listeners to go and join them in the fun. Speaking further on the release, Valkyrie say, “‘Yaddy Ya’ speaks to the energy around not caring about other people’s opinions of what makes you, you… so basically it’s the art of not giving a f***.

“‘Yaddy Ya’ started on a 5-string guitar. It was a late-night mate challenge to make a pop song with a missing string and it bloody became exactly that. At first the song was called ‘007’ because it sounded like a female James Bond type of song. We kept that initial feeling of having ‘a license to kill’ hence ‘Yaddy Ya’”.

Armed with bags of talent to support their unique sound and style, Valkyrie are a breath of fresh air and still really only just getting started, which is part of what makes them so exciting. And with their audience continuing to grow with each new release, it’s more than evident that they have a huge future ahead and will be ones to watch over the next year as they unveil more music. “Yaddy Ya” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://valkyrienz.lnk.to/yaddyya.

MTS Management Group artists celebrates friendship with new release “A Song for My Friends”

MTS Management Group artists’ latest release, “A Song for My Friends,” is a happy, upbeat song that captures the magic of being together, celebrating, and remembering. The track has a contagious energy that is like the spirit of late-night jam sessions and sing-alongs that happen out of the blue. The production is clean and smooth, but also laid-back.

The tune of “A Song for My Friends” is a toast, and it’s clear what the band wants. A party for the people who have been there since the beginning, the fans who keep coming back, and the nights that artists will never forget that remind them why they fell in love with music in the first place.

“A Song for My Friends” stands out in a world full of overproduced singles because it has heart, energy, and honesty. It’s a moment we shared that I put in a bottle and sent to you with a chorus that you’ll be singing long after the music stops.

Michael Soul hides from being open with new release “Hiding”

Michael Soul’s new single, “Hiding,” is a dark, hypnotic electronic track that takes listeners to a private place in their minds where they are alone, thinking, and feeling upset. “Hiding” was written when the author was very lonely. Michael Soul turns days of being alone, when silence seemed to last forever, and connection seemed impossible, into an immersive sound.

Andrea Mastroiacovo’s polished work makes the single even better, clarifying and deepening the song’s dark mood. The production carefully reflects that emotional weight with simple textures and dark electronic sounds that make you feel like you’re alone with your thoughts.

“Hiding” is a song about feeling alone, scared, and wanting to hide from being open. It asks questions that are quiet but sharp, like why do we hide what we feel? How does fear ruin love? And can we stop going in circles of misunderstanding and emotional distance? These echoes linger long after the track ends, prolonging the sound.
