Stargazer Mark ‘An Autumn Tune’


 

Stargazer Mark’s “An Autumn Tune” is a radiant celebration of change, blending rock, jazz, indie, and dark alternative into a vibrant soundscape that feels like a crisp fall breeze. With heartfelt lyrics, an intimate “live” production style, and enchanting harmonies from Cheyenne Black, the song captures the beauty of embracing life’s transitions. It’s a joyful reminder to savour fleeting moments and discover magic in the everyday.


Indira May ‘don’t feed the sharks’




Indira May’s latest EP, Imaginary Friends, is a stunning showcase of her distinctive artistry, blending jazz, indie, and electronic influences into a soundscape that feels both timeless and boundary-pushing. Opening with ‘don’t feed the sharks’, a psychedelic synth-pop masterpiece, the EP immediately captivates with its haunting vocals and intricate arrangements. Celebrated as BBC Introducing Sussex & Surrey’s ‘Track of the Day’ and featured in H&M stores across the UK, the track exemplifies Indira’s ability to craft music that is both emotionally resonant and sonically adventurous. With influences ranging from Billie Holiday’s soulful introspection to Radiohead’s experimental edge, Indira cements her place as one of the most exciting independent voices in today’s music scene.


Suki Summer ‘Marianne’



Suki Summer’s ‘Marianne’ is a dazzling ode to fleeting love. Her raw, evocative vocals guide listeners through the highs of a whirlwind romance and the inevitable ache of its end. The layered harmonies and cinematic production transport you to a dreamy European summer, filled with passion and bittersweet goodbyes. With deeply personal lyrics and an intimate emotional pull, Suki cements her place as one of today’s most compelling storytellers.


Isabelle Gitlin ‘Long & Gone’



With ‘Long & Gone,’ Isabelle Gitlin delivers a poignant follow-up to her debut single, ‘For Tonight,’ solidifying her reputation as an emerging talent with emotional depth and musical versatility. The song’s piano-driven composition sets a contemplative tone, while her evocative lyrics, enhanced by her collaboration with Talitha, capture the pain of yearning for someone you never truly had. Gitlin’s soulful, vulnerable vocal performance coupled with contemporary production reminiscent of SZA and Mariah Carey makes this track a standout, showcasing her unique ability to blend introspective storytelling with polished, modern soundscapes.


Salwa ‘Ghost You’



Salwa’s “Ghost You” is a fierce and hypnotic blend of electro-pop and space disco, brought to life with a visually stunning music video that explores the duality of nightlife. Directed by Ted Clarke, the video’s retro 80s gym aesthetic, paired with grainy Super 8 textures, creates an atmosphere that’s as alluring as it is unsettling. Salwa’s commanding presence and the video’s empowering narrative—reclaiming agency in the face of unwanted attention—make it both a bold statement and an unforgettable visual experience.
