Young indie-pop darling Alfie Templeman releases his new single “Leaving Today”, the latest offering from his upcoming album, Mellow Moon.

Alfie has been included in an amazing run of 2021 artist-to-watch lists, including the BBC Sound Of 2021, MTV, Amazon Music, Vevo, and more. He recently surpassed 100 million cumulative streams and has over 2.2 million monthly listeners on Spotify, confirming his position as UK indie’s brightest light and most meteoric rising stars in recent memory.

"There's a whimsical throb to the music of Mansionair"
– NPR
Australian genre-bending trio Mansionair share their ethereal alt pop tune “Empty Promises”, a collaboration with Vancouver-based producer Vandelux. “Empty Promises” follows the release of their single “Don’t Wait” and “Guillotine” – a collaboration with NoMBe that was released at the tail end of 2020 and went Top 5 at Alt Nation SiriusXM. Their upcoming album, Happiness, Guaranteed, was written as the culmination of their journey to date, which has already included a Grammy Nomination, Billboard charting singles, and several major support tours (CHVRCHES, Florence & The Machine, Bob Moses). This group continues to show us new layers to their music and we can’t wait to listen to what’s next.

"To escape into Luwten is to discover a head-clearing tranquility, a contemplative space away from the daily grind"
– Europavox
Dutch producer, songwriter and musician Luwten releases her sophisticated and artistic new single, “Anybody”. Luwten’s compassionate vocals (heavily influenced by the pared-back resonance of D'Angelo, Solange & Frank Ocean) and soulful lyricism shine on this beautiful new release. Her recent album Generations is full of strikingly elegant mashups of pop, soul, and R&B. By splicing artificial sounds with organic instrumentation, samples, and field recordings, Luwten’s brand of abstract pop is truly something special.

"Mass Appeal"
“Superb… A unique blend of house, danceable pop, and a whole lot of fun” – NME
Get your grooooove on! Franc Moody return with dancey track "Mass Appeal", a vibey, head bopping single awash with electronic inspiration. Bringing together elements of house, disco, funk and electronica, "Mass Appeal" is the first track from their forthcoming album due later this year. Their last album, 2020’s Dream In Colour, further proved their genius and command over the gospel of funk. The album is gooey, molasses-like funk that is nothing short of mesmerizing and one that was easily a top album of 2020. Enter a world rooted in a thick, warm blanket of electrified funk with this new single!
