🎧 Approved: Namasenda

Swedish pop visionary Namasenda is in her own Eurobeat-tinged, angelic pop world. New single ‘Cola’ is a glossy, digi-soaked rush of avant-pop, pairing accelerated guitar arpeggios with elastic rhythms and a tectonic low end for a sleek, hypnotic, all-around bop…

🎧 Approved: GUV

GUV grew up moving between Toronto and England and carries a very real strain of UK lineage that separates him from other hardcore kids sporting bowl cuts. New single ‘Blue Jade’ leans hard into punchy shoegaze, smearing hummable melodies beneath a thick gloss of distortion and texture…

🎧 Approved: tofusmell

Tofusmell, the project of Winnipeg musician Rae Chen, carries echoes of 90s indie folk, Elliott Smith, early Sufjan Stevens, but Chen isn’t chasing their shadows. New single ‘(Me Tomorrow)’ gently stretches their framework. It’s unassuming, almost lulling, until the final moments…

Rusty Santos pulls from psych folk, outsider pop and spiritual songwriting, but never in a way that feels archival. His music sits slightly askew, shaped by unusual tunings, soft dissonance and a sense of curiosity about sound itself. New single ‘Are You A Portal’ leans into that suspended feeling…

🎧 Approved: Sassy 009

Sassy 009 thrives in the in-between: a space where distorted vocals, grunge textures, shoegaze swells, 90s beatronica and gauzy hyperpop collide. On new single ‘Mirrors’, she links with Malaysian-Irish producer and singer yunè pinku for a reflective, downtempo shimmer…

🎧 Approved: PVA

PVA make music that feels bodily and obsessive. They tap into something potent - close to the shoddy, shady spirit of early Chicago house but sharpened into something visceral and contemporary. New single ‘Send’ is a glimpse into their upcoming album’s core fixations: physicality and desire…
