N0V3L's 2019 self-titled EP was high on our list of releases that year. Now the Canadian band have announced news regarding their forthcoming debut album 'NON-FICTION'. Landing May 28th, the 11-track record will span the sounds of post-punk, garage rock, new wave and even funk. Sonically the new LP will also be darker than the band's past work.
Toronto-born producer, writer, DJ and label boss Eva Shaw returns with a banger titled 'RAW' which features fellow T.Dot emcees Jaay Cee and G Milla. Musically the track weaves between trap, grime and drill with both rappers going back to back and absolutely flipping various styles and cadences.
Carlyn Bezic returns under her project Jane Inc. with a new song titled 'Obliterated'. The track is taken from Bezic's forthcoming LP 'Number One', which is out March 19th on Telephone Explosion Records.
Jane Inc. is the musical project of Toronto-based singer/musician Carlyn Bezic of U.S. Girls, Ice Cream and Darlene Shrugg. Scheduled to release her debut LP entitled 'Number One' on March 19th, Bezic has unveiled her new single 'Steel'.
Eva Shaw is the very embodiment of the word multifaceted. A producer, songwriter, DJ and label boss, her ear for crafting hit records without compromising her creativity or integrity has allowed her to not only churn out massive songs as a solo artist, but has also given her the opportunity to work with some of the biggest names in music...period. Although storming the dance and electronica circuits with 'Charizma' and 'Space Jungle', Eva Shaw demonstrated that she was equally as fierce when it came to Hip-Hop production, crafting pure, unadulterated bangers.

Toronto's Gillian Mapp is a singer, songwriter, photographer and founder of The Build collective, who is one of the forces helping to push the creative scene of the city. Having contributed vocals to acts such as 2nd Son and Wu-Lu, Mapp shared her single 'Orange Bitters' earlier this year.
Toronto band TeenANGER step forth with their latest single 'Trillium Song', taken from their upcoming LP 'Good Time', out October 2nd on Telephone Explosion Records. Treading between the sounds of post-punk, no wave and art pop, the tune launches with a funky bass line before slinky guitar lines are incorporated. The spirited chorus of the track adds a different texture with 'Trillium Song' earthed from the lineage of Talking Heads. We have a stream of the cut below.
Blue Hawaii, the duo compromised of Raphaelle Standell-Preston and Alex Kerby, have shared visuals for their single 'I Felt Love', which is taken from their upcoming mixtape 'Under 1 House', out September 25th on Arbutus Records. The video features Raphaelle Standell-Preston enjoying a day swimming in a lake and dancing whilst additional clips of the singer filmed with collaged and trippy effects are weaved in.
Djbouti-raised, Montreal-based singer Shay Lia has shared her latest track 'Love Me, Love Me Not', taken from her upcoming EP landing in September. A summery handing of R&B with a tint of afrobeats, Lia's silky delivery is backed by mellow production stacked with breezy guitar licks, easy synths and swaying drum kicks. A lovely cool-out cut, the track places emphasis on not being able to make it beyond the friend zone of an interest.
