T.G. Shand Unleashes New Single

Leave a comment

We’ve been fortunate enough to hear what T.G. Shand has been up to on a couple of occasions over the last few months, with a handful of singles breaking out in 2025. Her latest seems to move her further towards lush dream pop, to a place where you’ll meet Kate Bush nostalgia and modern bedroom pop masterpieces. Synths hit and roll across the tune, with Annemarie Duff’s vocals shadowed behind those beats, every so often pulling back the curtain to reveal a clear vision of modern pop. If you haven’t had the time to hear what the project is crafting, spend a little of your morning immersed in what’s below here, then thank us later.

 

The Notwist Announce News from Planet Zombie

Leave a comment

Was behind the paywall when news broke that the Notwist were returning with a brand new album, and upon the first listen, it does feel a bit like they’ve returned to some of their earlier fascinations. Our first hint has the group opening with a thunderous rhythm, as bit of synthetic structures seems to build behind that bounding noise. Moving the track forward, the vocals embrace a little solemnity from within, carefully sitting in the middle of a mix; ends of verses seem to be emphasized by a shattering of crashing drums/cymbals, ensuring the group are still working on their experimental approach to songwriting (though rumor has it this was recorded live in studio with all members present!). News from Planet Zombie arrives on March 13th.

More New Daphne Tunes

Leave a comment

Just last month, our buddy Santi and Daphne Tunes snuck a brand new tune into the world, and this last week, the project announced a brand new record, slated for release in February of next year. Aside from our aforementioned adoration of all things Santiago RD, I really love the build in this song, particularly as the track opens up around the 2 minute mark, kind of like a runner hitting that last turn and really turning it on. There’s a great line that I hope rings true for the artist, as he pens the line “why’s it always everybody/wanna write me off like a hobby,” but hopefully the narrator knows his own greatness…and that of this project. Looking forward to hearing all of Volume D!

Parent Teacher Shares NVD//A Single

Leave a comment

Feels like with all the AI generated music and algorithmic punches in the world, we can look towards artists like Parent Teacher who look to combine all the elements of the world into a unique sound all their own. I loved the shuffled of the latest single, fusing a quick bit of rhythm with a fast-paced strum that amplifies the natural energy. The percussive element is what cements the tune for me, working with lot of non-traditional pieces to create that primal movement. The vocals, on the other hand seemingly work against the frantic nature, creating this perfect juxtaposition that’ll have you returning to check your ears.

More New Music from Winged Wheel

Leave a comment

Not too long ago we were discussing the meditative nature of the first single on the new Winged Wheel LP, but as one would expect from a group of well-seasoned songwriters, their latest track ventures off on a different path. This single almost feels like a lost transmission, with the vocals distant in their presentation; they carefully tip-toe around each little bent guitar line. Careful ears will find a bobbing little bass line maneuvering beneath, holding the tune together as the transmission reverberates in your listening space, all before crashing into each other and fading out in proper fashion. Their new LP, Desert So Green, will be out on January 9th via 12XU Records.

New Music from Cameron Sonnier

Leave a comment

If you’re a person who loves the style and craft of a good singer-songwriter, then we hope you’ve been listening as we’ve hyped up Houstonian artist Cameron Sonnier. When listening through to his latest single, there’s something that reminds me a lot of the recent Tony Molina record, albeit done in Cameron’s own style, which fleshes more of the underlying ambiance by texturizing with synthetic structures. It’s the sort of tune that’ll let you sit back and soak in the cozy melodies of Sonnier’s work. Looking forward to hearing more from Cameron in the new year.

Shintaro Sakamoto Shares Is There a Place For You There

Leave a comment

We realize that a lot of cool lists will probably run this week, but at the moment, I’m just starting to look forward to what’s coming out early next year, like the forthcoming Shintaro Sakamoto LP. This tune seems to be a calling to finding your own place in the world, or at least the one that fits each individual person, but its crafted in this spiritual psychedelia that usually accompanies Sakamoto’s craft. There’s this sort of mysterious bend in the guitar notes, akin to what we’d get on typical psychedelic flair, but in that, the tune ends up sort of spinning as these little flutes or woodwind cousins burrow into the song’s consciousness. It’s the best sort of trip, and look for Yoo-hoo on January 23rd via Zelone Records.

Pet Owner Share FOMU Single

Leave a comment

Another act I adore, Pet Owner, is hinting at what’s in store for us when the new year opens the door to fresh tunes; today we’re sharing “FOMU,” which is operating mostly as a low-end electro pop ballad. What I mean by the low-end, as it’s clearly employing the bouncing nature of the pop genre, is that she’ll pull away and sprinkle in these little moments of singer-songwriter fashion, opening the doors to where her album could possibly go. It’s both delicate and luxurious in its approach to synth-oriented pop, so I’m already penciling in her works as one of my favorite things about 2026!

Morning Pop from Foamboy

Leave a comment

We’re almost there friends, and I promise we’re going to all make it to Friday; we’ve got this great track from Portland’s Foamboy. They’re kind of hitting that sweet spot of electro-pop, wherein they’re just on the cusp of being overly amplified, but they hold back so it doses push into pure schmaltz. Think of a Chromeo record, only a little more seductive and built for longevity, and you’ll pick up on the vibes here. This song’s built around a love story that just didn’t quite finish, sputtering out and leaving our lover with nothing more “than a book and a cold.” Step into Thursday my friends.

Major Murhphy Share Like a Wrecking Ball

Leave a comment

When the heavier strum of the guitar gets locked in on this new Major Murphy tune, there is something that happens to your soul; it’s a subtle little hook, but the sort that pulls you deep inside the tune. Once they’ve got your attention, they take their Americana vibes and begin to flesh out the background by layering backing vocals and sliding guitar to stretch the song to the horizon. The perks of this tune is that you can also hear a demo version accompanying the single, giving off a super stripped down version of the tune, equally as intoxicating. This tune is brought to courtesy of Winspear.
