Louie Rubio – “Heart of Gold”
Country: US
Genre: Indie Rock
Words From the Artist: Louie Rubio’s debut single “Heart of Gold” is a feel-good antidote for anyone feeling the melancholia of never-ending over-stimulating burnout. Serving as a post-pandemic manifesto, the bittersweet catchy hook pushes you to keep going and not “give up on your heart of gold”. The single reflects the DIY ethos of Louie’s upcoming album, where Louie locked himself in his LA studio and recorded, produced, and mixed the songs with real instruments and analog gear. The result is a cohesive and fresh personal sound that layers his smooth vocal textures over upbeat guitars and yacht grooves. Imagine Tame Impala meets MGMT, with a dash of Steve Lacy. Heart of Gold is the perfect first single for his upcoming album full of uplifting music.

Mad Simple – “One Way Road”
Country: UK
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist: “In the heat of the moment or when the adrenaline hits you, time often can slow down. One Way Road is about that juxtaposition of emotion and how you can experience a range of feelings even in the most chaotic moments. A take home from the message within the lyrics is we can all get a huge moment of realisation in our lives and when we do, clarity of thought is crucial to take the right path going forward. Musically, this song started with the riff heard at the beginning of the song but had quite a relaxed vibe. The song evolved into a different beast entirely as a hard hitting rock song, which is reflective of the range of feels within the song itself – we hope you enjoy the journey you’re about to take!”

AXiS – “Firewater”
Country: Romania

The Dead Pollys – “Yes, Sir”
Country: Sweden
Genre: Punk
Words From the Artist: “This is the first single of the upcoming album. TRUTH OF TOMORROW is describing a world in flames and a future in ruins, the indivduals inability to break the daily Zombie-patterns & an absolutely insane repeated pursuit of recognition. There’s a huge frustration & people tend to give up rather than fight.”

Live Skull – “Neutralize The Outliers”
Country: US
Genre: Post-Punk
Words From the Artist: Both urgent and catchy, it’s an addictive anthem of otherness perfectly balanced with incredible guitar work and riffs. Recorded at legendary Deepsea in Hoboken NJ by Mark C, this is timely music, essential, impassioned, angry and beautiful. It’s the sound of Live Skull in the 21st Century, a desperate time that needs heroes like these. They are back from the past and still holding the post-punk sceptre.
