Watch out for 17-year-old Ella Tiritiello and the song “Again and Again.” It sounds like an instant hit, combining all the elements that make a song great. The song was produced by Johan Lindbrandt (known for his work with Kygo, Sam Feldt, and Veronica Maggio) via WM Sweden.

“I really loved recording this song. It’s so fascinating to be able to sing about something quite dark and very exposing, but in a lightful tone. I put on this song, and I want to dance, although it’s quite triggering.” – Ella Tiritiello explained

Ella Tiritiello was raised by music lovers on a diet of powerhouses including the likes of Diana Ross, Adele, and Sia. “I loved to sing their songs in my room,” stated Ella, “but I never wanted anyone to hear, mostly because of my stage fright. I couldn’t see myself standing in front of people and singing.”

She sang in front of 16 000 people in what was her first-ever live performance at the renaming ceremony of the Avicii Arena in Stockholm in 2021. Later that year, at an Avicii tribute concert, she performed the song live for a second time, in a duet with Swedish singer Zara Larsson.

Isabel LaRosa releases the new song older. LaRosa has mastered the haunting tracks that get stuck in your head and come in dreams late at night. LaRosa recently inked a deal with Slumbo Labs/RCA Records after going with viral with the track Haunted.

“I started posting on TikTok to promote my music, and for about a year, 5-10 posts a day, literally nothing went viral. Not even close. Two months ago my brother and I wrote a song called “Haunted.” We wanted to create something that felt like it could be in the show “Euphoria” – Isabel LaRosa

LaRosa has been featured on Spotify playlists like Pop Sauce, Pop Rising and Fresh Dance Pop. In addition to writing all three singles on her critically acclaimed debut EP, i’m watching you, LaRosa wrote the treatments for and co-directed the video for each track, which ultimately fit together into a short film.

Three piece, indie-pop band PEPTALK releases the fun song urs. Inspired by indie-pop groups like The Aces and MUNA, PEPTALK’s “urs” is a high-energy pop track, a perfect song for the end of the summer.

They are both songwriters at heart and have worked with artists and producers in various countries, including the USA, Canada, Sweden, South Korea, France, New Zealand, the UK, and in their home country of Australia. Recently, they collaborated with the popular Australian artist LDRU on his song “Alone Again,” which got featured on playlists. In 2022, they made waves in the K-Pop industry by co-writing Rumble-G’s song “Every Other,” which has gained over 613K views on YouTube. Lara and Phoebe also produce music as PEPTALK under the name ‘Middleman’.

PEPTALK came together because they share a love for writing songs, catchy pop music, and female music icons like Remi Wolf, MUNA, and The Aces. Their previous songs have been featured on music playlists on Spotify, Apple Music, and Tidal. They’ve also performed at various events and festivals across the Australian east coast in their first year as a band, including the Brisbane 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup Fan Festival, Moomba Festival in Melbourne, St Kilda Festival, Sydney’s Fringe Festival, Parramatta Lanes, Sofar Sounds Sydney, TedX Brisbane, and as opening acts for Cry Club and Vetta Borne on their tours.

James Hersey returns with a mega-hit, “Let It Shine.” The new track has everything it should have: a big chorus, sappy lyrics, and James’s radio-ready voice that can make anything he sings sound great.

The new track comes off the new album Let It Shine Album which was recorded in Los Angeles with producer Jeoff Harris (K Flay, Royal & The Serpent).

James says, “My intention behind this album was to create a timeless body of work that tells brutally honest stories from my life. Stylistically I wanted to create a fusion of modern and traditional songwriting and production. It explores painful and positive personal experiences of the past years, centred around the song (and album title) “Let It Shine” – my mantra of perseverance in the face of inner and outer adversity. Musically I want the album to stand out from my previous, more cerebral work, as an energetic and physically compelling album that wants to be seen and experienced as much as heard. It’s written to be performed with my band without the need for computers on stage – to showcase the depth and power of live musicianship, as well as stand against the flood of purely digital music being produced nowadays. Most of the album was recorded in a traditional studio setting – big rooms, loud instruments, and fully analog signal chains that were then mixed and summed digitally to extract the best of both worlds. Three songs were built directly from their original writing demos to preserve their spontaneous nature.”
