Elin Blom, who goes by the moniker FELIN, has released the uptempo track “Worst Regret.” The song is infectious, reminiscent of some of the best moments of the 2000s and has quickly made its way to Spotify’s Sweden’s New Music Friday playlist. Think of it as a blend of Avril Lavigne and Clarkson.

Felin says about the song:

“Worst Regret” is about the process of getting over someone. It feels awful, even though you know this person was completely wrong for you. You’re angry at them for breaking your heart, but, most of all, you’re angry at yourself for letting them break your heart. Deep down, you actually knew from the beginning how it would end.

I actually wrote the verses of the lyrics when I was young and heartbroken over a guy in LA 12 years ago. The song was completely different at that time, and even though it never came out, I still loved the lyrics and have carried them with me. I’m happy that they have found new life now in “Worst Regret.”

In 2021, she released the album “Heroes & Villains” and in 2023, she released singles like ‘STFU (Shut The F*** UP)’ and ‘Sick.’

Watch out for Albert Newton and the track “16 Dimensions.” It’s a unique song reminiscent of Arctic Monkeys, David Bowie, Rush, and Led Zeppelin, all of whom were inspired by sci-fi.

As part of a project set to come out in 2024, the song with a guitar sound gives a glimpse of Albert Newton’s journey with this album. This journey began with an inspiring encounter he had with a quantum researcher and astrophysicist. Amazed by their perspective, the artist went to the studio with the goal of creating a musical gateway into his “metaphysical realm.”

With the assistance of producer Max Baby and inspiration from musical idols like David Bowie, Tame Impala, and Frank Ocean, Albert Newton created 11 tracks. “16 Dimensions” stands out as an otherworldly song that combines electric guitars with lively drum arrangements and dreamy reverb, all harmonizing with Newton’s smooth vocals. This song takes you into Albert Newton’s newly discovered musical world.

Be on the lookout for Josephine and her track “Sober,” which delves into the highs and lows of life on tour.

Josephine sings, “I’ve been sober since October, but now I smell like cigarettes.”

Fresh from her recent Pink Skies/Magic City Hippies tour, Josephine is currently in the studio preparing for her debut album in 2024, which is set to be released in the new year.

The alternative artist, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Josephine made waves in 2023 with her debut EPs: “Paradise” in January and “Lost?” in June. She draws inspiration from artists like James Blake, Father John Misty, Frank Ocean, Françoise Hardy, and the heartfelt lyricism of her mother, a folk songwriter from the 70s.

Several tracks on her EPs are helmed by collaborators Arieh Berl (from Pink Skies), a producer known for his work with artists such as 6LACK, Khalid, Neil Frances, The Knocks, and Saint JHN. Josephine also plays synthesizers and sings in the Pink Skies band, and she has been part of three US tours with acts like Kainalu, Magic City Hippies, and Tim Atlas.

Josephine’s personal haven and music studio, named The Cove, is tucked away in Topanga Canyon. Serendipity led her there, and shortly after moving in, she discovered that her landlord had once collaborated with her mother during the 1970s folk movement in Los Angeles. A reunion that had been half a century in the making took place during Josephine’s inaugural sold-out performance at the Shakespeare amphitheater, located just below The Cove, in January 2023.

Little Bird releases the rocking track “SP ACE,” reminiscent of ’90s rock with its gritty vocals and grungy guitar riff. Acts that incorporated electronics come to mind, such as Garbage and Stabbing Westward. The song could find a home on Spotify’s “Rock This,” “Rock Anthems,” or “Alternative Rock Essentials” playlists.

East Coast based Little Bird released their first song in 2023 called “Out! in the Sun!” which led to their new album “Sweet Happy Life” being continuously released.

They began making music together as a group in 2017 and started building their unique sound with the 2018 album “Familiar,” which was produced by Shane Woods and Jeff Lucci of Mo Lowda.

From 2020 through the next two years, they released a three-part EP series called ‘Alpha,’ ‘Beta,’ and ‘Gamma,’ known as PROXIMA. These records reflect their experiences in life’s ups and downs.

PROXIMA was completed after two years of working on song ideas, voice recordings, Zoom clips, samples, and demos. The band wrote, recorded, and produced the music in a four-bedroom townhouse in Charleston, South Carolina. The lyrics and music were created by pianist Noah Jones and guitarist/vocalist Jay Hurtt.

Watch out for Hana Lili and the new song Small Talk. It’s bedroom pop at its best. Fans of bedroom pop, indie pop, lo-fi pop,or chill pop will enjoy and the song could easily find a home on Spotify’s “Indie Pop Chillout,” “Your Favorite Coffeehouse,” or “Chill Vibes”.

Hana explains, “I wrote ‘Small Talk’ because I realized it was something I find difficult sometimes. It’s a song about hiding behind small talk in conversation to avoid being vulnerable. The lyric ‘you’ll find me hiding in the small talk until I’ve bored everybody in the whole room’ represents the feeling of using meaningless conversation with friends and strangers to avoid addressing your feelings and prolonging the inevitable.”

Hana Lili, a Welsh singer-songwriter, draws inspiration from ’90s indie and grunge. Her initial success with her first two EPs, ‘Flowers Die In The Summer’ and ‘Existential’, led to support from Radio 1, performances at two Coldplay stadium shows, and another appearance alongside Tom Grennan. She has garnered support from various Radio 1 DJs, including Sian Eleri, Huw Stephens, Jack Saunders, Mollie King, Maia Beth, and Phil Taggart. Her music has also received airplay on 6 Music, BBC Radio Wales, and Radio Cymru.

‘Small Talk’ was co-written by Hana Lili, Jez Ashurst, and Mark Vallance, and produced by Jez Ashurst, known for his work with artists like Maisie Peters and Tom Walker. Hana first introduced the song during her performances with Coldplay.
