🎧Approved: DBA!
DBA! slither between lo-fi indie rock and fractured psych-folk, with vocals that feel like they’re floating in from a neighbour’s house party. Their latest single ‘D.P.D.’ is a woozy, low-stakes toe-tapper.…

🎧 Approved: Disiniblud
Disiniblud drifts between ambient minimalism and emotional maximalism. Glitchy textures intertwine with neoclassical flourishes, anchored by an undercurrent of melodic pop. Their first two releases feel like spellwork - delicate, immersive and quietly transformative…

🎧 Approved: M(h)aol
Emerging from the creative confluence of Dublin, Belfast and London, M(h)aol (pronounced ‘male’) don’t just make post punk they wield it. Their new single, ‘DM:AM’, is a blistering one-take shot at the entitled men who clog women’s inboxes with unsolicited, aggressive messages…

🎧 Approved: SALMA
Spanish singer SALMA’s sound retains the passion of flamenco, but it’s enveloped in modern production that shifts between footwork and reggaeton. Her new single ‘na te debo’ is the sound of tension and resolve - heartbreak, but with its back straight.…

🎧 Approved: Shura
Shura says most pop music is “too confident”, so she made her own. Her new single ‘Richardson’ is a lulling reflection on isolation; a laid-back groove adorned with soft guitar licks and flurries of keys - yet it carries a pit in your stomach kind of weight…

🎧 Approved: Cain Culto
Cain Culto operates in a world of high drama and warped pop maximalism. A former worship pastor turned provocateur, his latest track ‘KFC Santería’ is Culto at full power: part sermon, part satire, part hyperreal fever dream…
