Detox From Grey – “Star In My Sky”

Detox From Grey are a rising London-based group consisting of Julie on vocals and keys, Jiwoon on bass guitar and synths, and Marco on drums. The band was formed after they met each other at university in London, with Julie hailing from Denmark, Jiwoon from South Korea and Marco from Italy. Despite their diverse cultural backgrounds, they share a common love for music and a passion for creating something new and unique, as can be heard on their newly released single, “Star In My Sky”.

Rowan Stuart – “Empire”

Rowan Stuart is a South African singer, songwriter and guitarist. In 2023, he is set to kick off a six-month music release plan starting in March with lead single “Empire” and followed by more songs in the coming months. These releases will be punctuated by a post-apocalyptic fairy tale aesthetic, inspired by the dystopian nature of present-day life and his love of science fiction and fantasy. Latest offering “Empire” is an alternative-pop track with a motivational, melancholy and moody vibe to it.

H.Pe – “Dublin”

Hailing from Ayr, Ontario, Canada, H.Pe is a singer-songwriter whose brand-new offering is an alternative, electric folksy track titled “Dublin”, which has a melancholic and hopeful vibe to it. Taken from his third studio album, Lines, “Dublin” was created from the melody of a few chords on a classical acoustic guitar, and then the song slowly started to form. His complementary vocals and intriguing guitar work truly showcase his musical abilities. Born in Dublin, Ireland, H.Pe connects to the city through memory – the thought of walking through St. Stephen’s Green on a warm, summer’s day with the people, the memory and the fantasy of what could have been.

Raindear – Majestically Mad

Raindear is the moniker of Swedish artist and producer Rebecca Bergcrantz. She starts 2023 with a brand-new body of work with her third album, Majestically Mad, with the mesmerising track “Never Let Go” amongst a bombastic selection of groundbreaking tracks from Bergcrantz. Hard-hitting from the off with a deep-lying synth, Raindear invites you into her euphoric dream pop world with her ever-resonating and empowering melodies taking centre stage amongst the brilliantly dramatic pop production.

Isaiah Brown – “Me & U”

Rising artist Isaiah Brown released his stunning debut, DREAMERBOY, last year, which went on to gain widespread praise. One of the highlights from the project is “Me & U”, which stands out immediately on first listen with its dark and eerie downtempo production. The production is paired perfectly with Isaiah’s smooth and captivating vocal performance, which helps elevate the track even further. Isaiah has also just unveiled the track’s music video, which complements the song perfectly with its interesting camera shots, special effects and vibrant colouring. It’s clear Isaiah Brown is a special talent with a bright future ahead.
