Lillie West aka Lala Lala and Yoni Wolf of WHY? come together for their collaborative single and video 'Siren 042'. Directed by Scott Fredette, the video depicts West and Wolf frantically running throughout the city from someone or something, ending with Yoni literally jumping off of a ledge before Lala Lala is presented with a bouquet of flowers. Yes the video is slightly weird but the song itself is an atmospheric dream pop bit that is highly infectious.
Hailing from South London, HUSSY is the music moniker of Sophie Nicole Ellison who, whilst relatively new to our ears, has had a couple tracks out in the world over the past couple months. Her new single 'HUSSY' is definitely a stand-out cut that jumps between dark pop and lashing indie, with splashes of hard rock guitars that create a fiery edge. Ellison delivers a grungy / ghostly vocal performance that is at times eerie and raw but no less exciting. She is absolutely an artist who should be on your radar. Have a listen.

Having released their single 'Last Day Of The Sun' at the end of 2017, with their latest track 'Place To Call My Own', the trio jump right back in step with a blissful and lush soundscape. Produced, written and recorded by frontwoman Yulia Bizyukova, the single is layered with ethereal synths and heart-beating drums. A little under 8 minutes in length, there is also a deep focus on the depth of the instrumentation. Bizyukova's reverb-dipped vocals add a beautiful texture making this another stellar offering of dreamy pop.

Having recently shared her dreamy song 'Fruta Tardía', she now returns with a straight-ahead beat cut in which she dubs 'Japanese Church'. The instrumental track is a slow-burning and haunting offering that will drive any beat fanatic insane. This is yet another spotlight shining on the diversity of the producer, musician and singer.
