2x GRAMMY win!
"FINNEAS is one of the most talented singer-songwriters in the game right now" – Consequence of Sound
We couldn’t be more thrilled for FINNEAS rising like the superstar he is with two new GRAMMYS as of last Sunday night! The now eight-time GRAMMY Award-winning musician, songwriter and producer won the GRAMMY for Record of the Year for the 2nd year in a row alongside his mega-star sister Billie Eilish for their track "everything i wanted”; the duo also took the award for Best Song Written for Visual Media with their James Bond theme "no time to die". With multiple GRAMMYS under his belt and his most recent singles “What They’ll Say About Us” and "American Cliché" continuing to make waves, we can't wait to see what's next from this pop genius.

"creep (Radiohead Cover)"
"The internet belongs to mxmtoon" – i-D
Oakland-raised, Brooklyn-based artist mxmtoon delivers a hauntingly beautiful rendition of Radiohead’s anthemic hit “creep”. Produced for the forthcoming sequel of acclaimed video game series Life Is Strange, mxmtoon’s performance instantly belongs within the game’s enigmatic atmosphere and beyond: a hallucinatory environment that’s both somber yet elegant, a stirring butterfly effect. The singer, songwriter, producer, podcaster and gamer kicked off the year with an NPR Tiny Desk performance and hasn’t stopped since. Aside from Life Is Strange, she continues her daily podcast 365 days with mxmtoon, which has included special guests ranging from Carly Rae Jepsen to Dayglow to Julien Baker as she continues to connect with fans around the world.

"Youtube2MP3"
"The group that sounds like early A$AP Rocky with the energy of Brockhampton" – i-D
AG Club, the hottest new hip-hop group out of the Bay Area, release their rhythmic new single "Youtube2MP3" – off their upcoming sophomore album F*ck Your Expectations. A follow up to their collaboration on "Memphis, Pt. 2" with NLE Choppa and A$AP Ferg and a year since the self-release of their debut project Halfway Off The Porch, the group has garnered close to 850K monthly listeners, over 22 million cumulative streams, and were named an artist to watch in 2021 by Pigeons and Planes. Together, AG Club make hip-hop but not as you know it. Their lyrics, production, and everything they do seem to pay homage to their favorite artists, video games and movies, yet end up sounding wholly original.

"Sleeveless"
"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 new single "Sleeveless" off of her forthcoming album Draft due this Spring. 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. By splicing artificial sounds with organic instrumentation, samples, and field recordings, Luwten’s brand of abstract pop is truly something special.
