Julia Logan – “Moodswings”

Country: Sweden

Genre: Singer-songwriter

Words From the Artist/PR: “New single from the new album coming November 1st”

Harley Olivia – “You’re Not Ready”

Country: Canada

Genre: Pop Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: ““You’re Not Ready,” is an empowering, catchy pop-rock song with influences of harder 80’s rock to convey resolve in the lyrical meaning. The inspiration for the track was realizing a romantic partner was not ready for healthy and stable commitment and opted for games and self servitude instead.”

Silk Road – “The Olympics”

Country: UK

Genre: Post-Punk

Words From the Artist/PR: “Following last year’s debut single ‘Travis Bingle’, the Newcastle-upon-Tyne-based band have retained the intense and chaotic post punk sound that defined the first track, while incorporating more of their 70s prog, funk, and jazz influences. Predating their first single by many years, the song started life as an attempt to write Mario Kart music, it slowly (over 3 years) spiralled into a 70s prog-inspired post-punk odyssey about consumerism and online fame. Overall, The Olympics is about confusion, you can feel when something is wrong but you can’t always articulate it – this feeling is most clearly portrayed in the bridge, which feels like it could fall apart at any moment.”

Good Group Thanks For Coming – “It’s A Game”

Country: Canada

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “I think this song is bittersweet! It’s, basically, a song about accepting disappointments. It’s a song about self-soothing – but there are whimsical elements in it that are silly and fun too. It captures a kind of duality that I’m proud of. It has a certain innocence about it but it also has a certain helplessness about it. There’s, ultimately, maybe a little more sad than happy in it but without a bit of both it wouldn’t be nearly as poetic.”

Alberta Cross w/ Dan Mangan & Joseph Arthur – “Hard Breaks”

Country: UK

Genre: Indie Rock

Words From the Artist/PR:  “I’m delighted to have these two legends and gents singing ‘Hard Breaks’. I’m a big fan of both Joseph and Dan. We’ve crossed paths in different very important stages in my music life. Meeting Dan in the crazy but amazing early London days that really shaped me as a singer, artist and human being and of course hanging and playing many jams in New York City in the same room as Joseph Arthur in the late hours of the night or shall I say early hours of the morning more likely with some pretty insanely incredible people. Beautiful time and experiences I won’t forget”

MATTYMETRIC – “Midnight Delight”

Country: Thailand

Genre: Indie Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “”Midnight Delight” by MATTYMETRIC is a lively and funky rock song featured on his upcoming “TIME MACHINE EP,” set to release in early 2025. The track diverges from Matty’s previous releases while retaining elements that define him as an artist, including catchy guitar riffs and a sing-along chorus. The drums establish a steady groove for the bass and guitar, setting the stage for a blend of voices that create an almost psychedelic choir effect. The lyrics draw inspiration from the typical paranoia induced by marijuana among teenagers, taking the listener on a journey through various states of mind, each section and sound representing a different facet of the experience.”

Sixelle – “Masquerades”

Country: Germany

Genre: Punk

Words From the Artist/PR: “A punky one from our album coming 13.9, it’s about all the populists we hate.”

Meat Bags – “Tear Gas”

Country: UK

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “This song is a short burst of defiance, with an ear to the unheard. It is about The governments new laws in 2023 to impose stricter restraints on protesters.”

Midnight Tripper – “Lightning Speed”

Country: Canada

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “”Lightning Speed” is the thunderous new single from the energetic, heavy rock ‘n’ roll outfit, Midnight Tripper. The band’s fuzz-fueled offering is ignited with a fusion of catchy rock ‘n’ roll qualities and stoner rock, all enshrouded in a darker, heavier atmosphere. “

Smack Talk – “Enough”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “Big heavy rock song with punk and metal influences. Incredible guitar solo later in the song. Song is about someone abandoning you – whether that be a friend or lover.”
