Bursting out from Spokane, United States, is Danny Suede, who has recently released his new track titled "shadows on the pavement". The new offering from the American singer-songwriter has already shot to the top of his most popular songs on Spotify, and I can easily tell why from the very first minute. ... a shimmering, uplifting slice of bedroom pop that feels made for sunny days. The opening sequence of the song is a delicate balance of acoustic guitar mixed with his serene vocals and a dash of electronic pulses just to get you all warmed up. For me, the fusion of bedroom pop and alternative pop sounds reminded me of an early Ed Sheeran as he was about to take over the British music scene. With that in mind, it sounds like Danny is also going in that direction. It is such an uplifting track and has brilliant shimmering moments that make this an unmistakably top pick for your Sunkissed playlists. He is an artist who is on the rise, so be sure to listen to him as soon as you...

Martin Kuiper drops his strong new album, "Prison Of Modesty"

Hailing from Ruurlo, Netherlands, singer-songwriter Martin Kuiper delivers a captivating blend of '90s alt-rock and grunge on his album "Prison Of Modesty".We previously had Martin on our website before, but today is an exciting day as this sees his new album finally land. The album is comprised of 10 tracks, of which seven were previously released. We are going to focus on some of the tracks that are new here—or at least new to us. I can't help but praise the opening track, "Still I Promise", as this is a fantastic gateway song to his sound, with plenty of Beach Boys-styled backing vocals laced upon a rather indie-rock-driven track, almost beckoning you into the 10-track album. One of the new tracks is called "In Security", and it's quite the charming cut with some moody guitar tones that reminisce of those 1980s bands, such as Dire Straits. With that, his vocals really do come to light here as the song is rather stripped back in terms of its ...

It is a very upbeat offering with a bright intro, delightfully upbeat guitars, and, of course, his stunning vocal tones paving the way. I really did like the crunching bass on this one, mixed with the sprightly guitar sounds and tight percussion. His vocals are stunning, and when it hits the chorus for the first time, it comes into this inspiring anthem. With a hint of 1990s alternative rock about it, mixed with more modern pop sensibilities, this song is the kind that can straddle a generation or two, with hopefully lots more fans discovering his music along the way. With the ...

Swiss musician and producer Tony Sieber delivers an atmospheric gem with "Dreaming in Soft Light".It is a warm and lo-fi track with plenty of atmosphere.

"Yulan & Blaise for me" is one of the emerging sounds coming out of the Australian music scene, and now the Hobart-based act has revealed a thrilling new cut titled "Growing Pains". ... a hypnotic, gritty underground gem packed with pulsating basslines, brooding vocals, and haunting electronic undertones. Right from the outset it is hypnotic, and I guess it has to be considering that it is just over 2 minutes long, but the bassline is something that will rip your ear off if you have the volume turned up enough. The vocals are moody and brooding, with plenty of gritty textures to have you leaning into the track second by second. Those dark undertones of the track really do come to life in the second half, as there are some haunting electronic tones and even more distorted vocals entering the fold as the track progresses.
