“Dive into the depths, hold you like my breath.” The imagery created here instantly pulls the listener in and makes them feel as though they’re diving as well. In this case, it’s a voluntary happy fall as CONNR’s latest musical offering appears to be about falling in, you guessed it, love. Ah, the beautiful joy (as well as sheer terror) of realizing that your feelings for someone have blossomed into love. Quite the dive, indeed. With “Deep End”, we get the feeling of impending love, CONNR expresses a helpless fall, one that she has no control over, but that she doesn’t mind not having control over. CONNR trusts this person and doesn’t feel that falling in love with them will be detrimental to her in the slightest, there is a high that comes along with loving them and CONNR is buckling up for the enjoyable descent into the deepest pits of being lovesick. “I try to let you pass me by, to ignore the reasons why, I want you” Ah, a reflex from past relationships to try and “fight the feeling” that is arising within you. It seems as though CONNR has trained herself to fight romantic feelings and not trust them initially. But, as the song goes on, try as she might, these feelings aren’t going anywhere and this love is inevitable. “Ya got me in the deep end, every moment we spend, I’m sinking into your love.” These lyrics paired with this delicious beat sees the listener dancing along and envisioning a deep love that evokes happiness. CONNR has given us a love song for the summer, to bop along to and, possibly, emulate while searching for our own love. It inspires others to want to be in the “deep end” of the right love pool. “You win, got your lips against my skin and the sunlight seeping in through the window.” These words let us know that CONNR has begun to loosen the reigns, so to speak, and is fully embracing this newfound love. Furthermore, to her delight, all is going well, and she was right to trust this person. The image of sunlight seeping in seems to cast a positive light on this relationship as if to say it is a healthy and happy relationship. “Give me more, got me sinking to the floor, every breath I took before you was shallow.” CONNR is re-thinking her life’s choices, namely relationship choices. CONNR is saying that her current flame burns brighter and better than the others, nothing compares to this love for her, this the ultimate, she’s simply on cloud nine with this person and doesn’t want to come down any time soon. “Levitating, tangled up and feeling weightless.” There isn’t a care in the world when she’s with this person, the words and the way she sings them as if she’s narrating her own life while watching her happiness with this person is the icing on the cake that is this summer love song.This is such a feel-good song and, as we all know, the world could use a large dose of feel-good. Every day. All day. For everyone. At all times. So, having music like this from CONNR is a treat we mustn’t take for granted. The cover art for this single is also worth noting as it depicts CONNR being submerged in the water quite a bit but there’s no hint of fear on her face, in fact, there seems to be a peace. She seems to be at peace with this new interest, hitting all the right notes with the singer. CONNR’s bio reads - “Pop songwriter girly tryna feel the feels with you.” The singer/songwriter, who began writing songs at 14, is currently based in Alabama. CONNR’s voice is sure to stay within the “Deep End” of everyone who listens to this song’s ears. CONNR’s musical style is described as “electro and dance pop” that puts the listener in “happy energetic” moods. Her online presence is saturated with her music that receives positive feedback from her fans and her giving the fans a glimpse into the process as well as her own life. There are quite a few promotional videos for “Deep End”, helping to spread the message and heighten the impact of this positively plush track. She’s captivating as she divulges the listener with the tale of this unexpected love that has materialized for her and made her all giddy and jolly. She certainly lives up to her bio for me, as I’m not even in a relationship, but this song makes me feel as though I am and having a good time at that! That’s quality music that can make you feel what the artist wants you to feel, you’re not just listening to it, you’re experiencing it. Kudos to everyone involved with this gem.

The song Come Away brings us the familiar feel of indie folk music. As the listener, once the song began I felt an immediate connection back to the era of Game Of Thrones. The song communicates to the listeners the importance of not rushing life. Come Away, is all about taking your time and exploring as much as you can and not settling on the time frame that society has placed on our lives. Some of the lyrics that help provide us with this conclusion include "Dawn will come / But I will run / And be never seen again." I think this can be seen as a metaphor for life. Tomorrow will come but we don't have to dread what it holds if we choose to create our own future. We see the realization that once this little life we've been given ends there's a real possibility that we might be forgotten if we don't leave our little mark on the world. The lyrics "I'll only be forgotten / Like the shadows in this place / So come away with me." solidify these feelings for me. It's up to us to not only create the life we want to live but also to change the way we are remembered at the end of the day. Come Away is a rather fast paced song but not in a way that makes it hard to follow, instead it's a consistent fast pace. We can follow along but still tap our foot to the beat without getting lost. This song maintains the perfect balance between string and percussion instruments, as well as some slight electronic elements. When you pair this with the artist's voice it gives the song the finality that it deserves. All of these elements work together to create a fight song, something that you would hear when you're preparing to go to battle, in this case that mood would be in reference to your own life and the battle you're fighting within. Rose Betts is a UK born artist who is currently based in LA, she is a rising Celtic indie singer-songwriter. She made her name known with the release of her two songs War, and Take This Body Home. Rose Betts has just announced her debut U.S. tour which kicks of in September. When asked about the song Come Away she said, "It's interesting how we feel like we have to have our lives together in our 30's. It takes a lot of courage to step outside of that and be like 'No, I don't want to own a house. No I don't want to have kids.' What the world expects is heavy weight to bear, and we're all so different, we all want different things, but it's so easy to fall into trapdoors trying to fulfill the norm. I think the job of an artist is to fight against all of those trap doors, or at least examine them as they come along." What a great reminder to people of all ages, we grow at our own pace and I think Rose Betts has plenty more to share with us on her journey of personal growth.

Amanduh is here with a brand new single “Sparks”! A emotionally vulnerable account of a relationship with no rule substance, Amanduh tells the story with a mature outlook, realizing that the grass was greener on the other side. She declares in the first verse that her ex was her favorite person at the time, who eventually turned into just a lesson she learned. She was blind to the flaws in the relationship, even though her friends had warned her. Their relationship was a ticking time bomb, waiting for disaster to strike. Even her parents knew something was often when they met Amanduh’s ex, but they didn’t say it. As the winter came, she realized that maybe she didn’t want to be draped around his arm. She thought their dissonance would fizzle out, but it never did. Once they broke, she didn’t even shed a single tear and she realized that she was better off. In the end, Amanduh realized they were just sparks that would amount to nothing. Click here to listen to "Sparks"! “Sparks” stands out in the alt pop scene, with a compelling lyrical flow and flowing acoustic melodies. Amanduh has a unique and special charm to her that is hard to describe, but it makes her music addicting to listen to. Her voice is crisp and the harmonies sprinkled throughout are cleverly created and laid out. The section that stands out to me the most is the chorus: it’s explosive and full of synthesizers that is reminiscent of some famous 2000s choruses. However, Amanduh balances this out with a raw, acoustic moment right before the final repeat of the chorus. The expertly-crafted production creates a special soundscape that sets it above the rest.  Amanduh is an Australian singer-songwriter hailing from Melbourne, Victoria. Although she’s been a long time song-writer, she released her first single in 2022 titled “ Old Flame ”. Following her debut single, she released an EP, “ Pantsuit ”, with 4 sizzly and confident pop tracks. She took a step back from her spunky pop sound to create this vulnerable and memorable alt-pop track. The song was formed in a 15 minute songwriting session on her kitchen floor, and it was fully produced after only 2 days. Amanduh revealed in an interview with AMS that she might have a single or two up her sleeve coming later in 2024, so make sure to stay on the lookout for these amazing songs.

Mistine’s sophomore EP entitled, “Lonely” is officially out now! To sum up the single “Lonely,” one could say it’s about the profound disconnect between two people who used to care for eachother. With powerful lyrics such as, “Maybe for failure's sake, I’m gonna call ya” and “You don’t know how to love me when I’m being honest,” Mistine emphasizes being misunderstood and in love in this single. All roads point to disconnection and challenges in communication; problems many of us can relate to. Regarding her new alt-pop EP, Mistine had this to say, “This EP takes the listener through my exploration and confusion into life and love. It captures moments in time from growing in love, heartbreak, and friendship, confusion, longing, loneliness. My songs are made to listen to while you’re driving in your car, right before sunset, when the sky is just turning orange-” Here, I think Mistine does an excellent job of painting a vivid picture of when the feelings of this song would hit the hardest. The style and instrumentals of “Lonely” are paradoxical to its broken-hearted lyrics; and this beat is infectious! Mistine’s classical rock influences of Aerosmith are clear in this track’s instrumentals as the guitar is allowed to shine, however it does not overtake this talented singer’s vocals. It’s easy to hear the emotional weight this song carries through Mistine’s ability to convey the meaning of the track through her singing. “Lonely” also includes some fantastic and dynamic drumming, a solid foundation which is reminiscent of The 1975’s modern rock edge. Overall, the song feels so fresh and exciting yet meaningful at the same time. Between the solid production value and Mistine’s immense talent, it’s definitely a must-listen. Jersey-bred artist and vocalist Mistine delivers her own blend of angsty pop and vintage classics. Since finding success on songs such as “Everett Park” and “Hometeam” Mistine has toured with big industry names such as Conan Gray, Meg Smith, and BiigPiig. In addition to her dreamy vocals, Mistine is also a talented bassist and guitarist. She has amassed 4,000 monthly Spotify listeners and continues to grow on social media platforms such as Tiktok. If you absolutely love “Lonely” and want to keep up with Mistine’s new releases, follow her on all social media below!

Bursting with ferocity and emotional strain, “Fading” by artist Calliope Wren captures the trust fall that is stepping out of control to move forward as your past slips away. “Fading” cuts deep with instrumentals that capture the pain of wanting to be back in a different, more stable state, and this blends perfectly with Calliope Wren’s powerful voice. The song becomes a testament to Wren’s talent for portraying a truthful sketch of her life, and it makes audiences wonder what else she is capable of accomplishing. “Fading” simply sticks with you until you find yourself listening to it on repeat, and it proves that a good quality track can be both incredibly catchy and incredibly moving. The song follows the standard pop-rock style and structure, and that’s what makes it so addictive. Using the main chorus line as the hook for “Fading” is a nice touch as it gives audiences a little teaser as to what direction the song will take. The opening verse displays how the speaker’s internal struggle of disassociating as they move forward and begin to let go. The struggle displayed in the lyrical content works so well with Wren’s voice as has the versatility to display the emotional intensity. As previously mentioned, the song is incredibly catchy as that melody stays in your head. The guitars on “Fading” are simple yet so fun, and they really drive that kick the chorus holds. The way the song wraps up feels very grand, like taking a final bow on stage, and with the end of “Fading” listeners are left with nothing but amazement. Calliope Wren is a singer-songwriter from Long Island who has been praised for her ability to beautifully portray difficult topics of human struggles. She has been involved in musical theatre and stage performances for over a decade. She has also amazed listeners with her incredible and powerful voice. Wren has frequently performed at The Spotlight at the Paramount in Huntington, and recently, she performed at The Bitter End on Bleeker Street in New York. She’s a major advocate for mental health awareness and the LGBTQ+ community, and you can definitely see this great display of character in her work. Calliope Wren is certainly exciting to discover and she’s someone you won’t regret listening to.

Singer-songwriter Marina Vanoff's newly released single, "carousel," is an indie-rock track about romantic relationships and self-healing. The song, a mellow guitar-centric ballad, is about needing to leave a relationship for your personal growth and the complex emotions that come with that. Marina writes about a relatable adult experience: one where you care about the person, but they are not the right fit for your own life. This ties in cleverly with the title as a metaphor for this decaying relationship. Marina herself says, "Carousels are really fun at first, but if you're on one for a long time, you get sick and dizzy and just need to get off it. A relationship just can't be fun all the time, it's okay to recognize that a relationship isn't right for you and to have the courage to make a change for your own well-being." "carousel" is a special kind of song; it speaks to mature, real-life experiences often unexplored in pop music. Love and life are complex, and Marina writes about these complications with ease. "carousel" is a song bound to appeal in how relatable and empowering its message is. With its down-tempo beat and chill sonic atmosphere, "carousel" is a song to blast in the car with the windows down. But the song's main appeal is its lyrical content. Marina's storytelling and sharp lyricism are biting and emotionally resonant. It's hard to listen and not feel every emotion she does. Lines like "really wish it could be you forever, but I don't think you'll get tired of going in circles" are gut-punching in their succinctness. Marina cites artists like Fiona Apple as her main influences, which comes through in her work. Fans of female rock artists like Fiona or Phoebe Bridgers would find much in Marina's works. "carousel" is an honest, emotionally vulnerable piece of indie rock with a lot to say. Marina Vanoff is a Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter. She released her debut EP, "Nocturnal Eyes," last September, featuring the tracks "Make Up Your Mind," "IDK," and "The Sky is Falling." Much like "carousel," Marina's other works focus on candid lyricism and alt-indie sounds. They are a blend of 90s nostalgia and modern rock aesthetics. On May 3rd, Marina released "voodoo doll," the first track in the leadup to her debut album, "Bones, Baby!" scheduled for release later this year. The track has over 20,000 views on YouTube, and Marina herself has over 17,000 subscribers. Marina's career is only beginning, and you can listen to "carousel," along with the rest of her discography, on streaming services now.

The track features euphoric melodies, infectious beats, lush harmonies, and radiant synths, reflecting the joy the artist feels about falling in love.

Beginning the song with electric guitar was just the edge needed to convey the message of “I’m over this. Good day.” Stilla has an upbeat “f you” track that will have any and everyone singing along, a summer bop, for sure. Stilla begins the storytelling, “You say you hate me.” This immediately clues the listener into the fact that this situation isn't going well, that is, of course, coupled with the title referencing being sick. With the beat being as up-tempo as it is, it certainly doesn’t put the listener in the mind of being under the weather. But, of course, that’s more than likely the point of it, to inspire others to say, “Enough is enough.” Stilla explained the inspiration behind the bop -““I really wanted to capture that moment where you quit putting up with someone's BS, and start focusing on you and your happiness and freedom to be your best self.”” Stilla makes a point of differentiating between when she is with her significant other and when she isn’t. “You got me feeling so under the weather. Can’t stop the cloudy days when we’re together. You got me feeling so under the weather.” So, this isn’t a situation where one can use the “It’s not you, it’s me.” line. Stilla is saying “No, it’s definitely you, not me.” “It’s like you’re just on a mission to bring me down” The bass guitar picks up the edge where the electric guitar left off, Stilla’s voice navigates the beat with such ease. The beat also seems to mimic steps as one can potentially envision Stilla walking away from this toxic situation. Stilla also sings of how loving her soon-to-be ex-lover has been “painful” and how she feels that they’re a “pessimist”. With this picture being painted for the relationship, there’s no wonder Stilla feels under the weather around them and is looking to get away from that. So, essentially, this song is a notice to a significant other that the relationship is finito while even giving them a groovy song to dance and sing along to. Stilla and her team are truly genius and this song is a pop masterpiece of giant proportions. Stilla, a self-described “certified pop princess”, and the singer/songwriter is living out that moniker. As an independent artist, Stilla has lots of control over her image as well as musical offerings to the world and she has been making all of the right moves thus far, garnering a nice-sized fan base and receiving recognition from celebrities like Jesy Nelson and Charlie Puth. Stilla’s musical style is described as electro pop and Gen-Z influenced. If “UNDER THE WEATHER” is any indication, I think it’s safe to say that this pop princess isn’t going anywhere anytime soon and will continue to grace us listeners with musical gems of royal quality for years to come.

Greyson Chance’s latest single, “Haymaker,” centers around the tumultuous relationship between Chance and his brother. The song itself is about a punch, both physical and metaphorical – a reminder that words can hurt just as much as actions. Family is tricky, it’s never easy to walk away from blood, but when a relationship no longer serves you, sometimes it’s necessary. “Haymaker” really dives deep into that difficult sibling dynamic. Though these two once shared interests and similarities, they’re different people now. Yet, no matter how big of a disagreement or how long of a distance, there’s still love there. Chance heartbreakingly captures this narrative as he sings, “It was a gut punch when you said I wasn’t no one // Boy, you hit a home run // I could feel the house shake // Screaming at me til’ your jaw breaks // I know you hate me, but I’ll warn ya // Boy, I’ll always love ya.” “Haymaker” pays homage to Chance’s Oklahoma roots, while telling a story that hits incredibly close to home for the artist. Its folk, country vibe are a departure from the pop-laden tracks that Chance has become known for, but nonetheless his deep, gravel-filled voice and emotional lyrics could fit into any genre. The song starts off with just guitar and Chance’s voice as his lyrics help set the scene. Moving into the first chorus, the drum kicks in, building up the intensity that matches the heaviness of the story. One thing I’ve come to admire about Chance, is that he’s not an artist that relies on theatrics or overly boisterous beats and productions, his words are enough to draw you in and keep you coming back from more. That is a true artist. Greyson Chance was only 12-years-old when he skyrocketed to fame. Now at 26, he’s the most raw and vulnerable he’s ever been. Chance, who is a seasoned singer-songwriter and pianist, knows how to navigate metaphors and lyrical narratives like no other. As the kids say nowadays, his pen game is strong. After taking some time to develop his talents away from the spotlight and releasing a string of independent singles, the Oklahoma native re-emerged with his 2019 album Portraits . The album was critically acclaimed and was further supported by a successful world tour. His third album, Palladium , continued to draw in listeners, new and old, who were eager to hear the emotional storyteller do what he does best. Coming off the heels of his introspective single, “Rearview Mirror,” Chance’s latest single packs an even deeper lyrical punch. You can now listen to “Haymaker” on all music streaming platforms.

The end of a relationship can be many different things. It can be heartbreaking, freeing, or simply numbing. Sometimes, however, it can be exactly the opposite of what we expect it to be. Camden West’s latest single “Running Wild” details his point of view and experience with this very matter. He expected his ability to (as he puts it) ‘run wild’, and yet he finds that all he wants is to be back together with his partner. His lyrics bring the question to light of if the breakup was really what was best for them, and if his ex partner is feeling the same way. Do they miss him as much as he misses them? He asks himself this question, along with questioning how to truly feel okay while running wild. The soundscape of this song is a mix of folk and pop, seemingly matching the vibes of artists like Ben Rector, Matt Kearny, and John Mayer (although with a little more electronics added to Mayer’s sound to reach West’s). The soundscape feels bright and yet nostalgic, and it ebs and flows with West’s lyrics. He sings touching lines like, “Running wild should feel so good / but every step I take / takes me back to you” in the chorus, and “My back and bones are breaking / my heart just started aching” as the first line of the bridge. He repeats my personal favorite lyric throughout the song: “Just got you on my mind / running wild and running free”. These words are so simple, but really show how no matter what he is doing and no matter how good he is supposed to feel, all he can do is think about his past relationship. Camden West is a Las Vegas and Nashville based artist, and has amassed almost 1,000 monthly Spotify streamers. He is classified as a folk, pop, and rock artist, and has stated that he has taken inspiration from his personal favorite artists growing up: The Rolling Stones, John Mayer, Eric Clapton, and Keith Urban. He has one album released titled Outside the Lines, and one EP titled The Space Between, as well as multiple singles including “Running Wild”. He has had the opportunity to perform with artists such as the American Authors and Jake Miller, and is currently working on recording his third studio production.

Diana Goldberg's new single, 'Gravity', evokes a whirlwind of emotions, detailing the intense whimsy of budding romance and how falling in love often leaves us feeling like we're "defying gravity". Through her brilliant lyricism, Goldberg is able to capture the essence of the butterflies that settle in our stomachs when we meet someone special, causing our heads to surge beyond cloud nine. The meaning behind 'Gravity' stems from the weightless joy found in another person after emerging from a toxic relationship. It is meant to resonate within those who are not only opening their hearts to new romances but also those who are experiencing the innocence of platonic and familial love. The singer-songwriter describes how, in this ethereal state, she loses her "sense of time" and everything seems to just "fall into place" as the reality around her begins to reflect her strong emotions. Giving us a tiny glimpse of what more is in store for her growing discography, ''Gravity' embodies the cheery, youthful nature of summer with a groovy syncopation that can be attributed to the artist's distinct sound. Diana is known for consistently drawing in audiences with her catchy melodies, remarkable lyricism, and ability to transform alt-pop genre into something that is uniquely her own. When listening to ‘Gravity’, the very first word that comes to mind is “entrancing”. Goldberg launches the listener into a completely different headspace, immersing us in that familiar feeling of fresh, untainted love. The cleverly titled single makes the listener feel like they're floating on air as the song opens with her clean, echoey vocals. Goldberg's tone is rich, yet calming; her mystical delivery of each verse reaffirms her commentary on the transcendental aspects of love. The chorus is funky, it’s upbeat, and most importantly, it’s uplifting. The bass makes you want to move your body, the fast-paced tempo simulates a racing heart, and the retro synthesizer has a reminiscent feel. Altogether, the production works to spark this fiery adrenaline that takes our feet off the ground. ‘Gravity’ is the type of song you find yourself unknowingly humming along to throughout the day, automatically bringing a smile to your face. There's just no doubt that this song has already made its way to replay status on every playlist. Based in the very heart of Germany, Berlin, Diana has established herself as a talented artist that has taken the alt-pop genre by storm! With a background in classical piano and a strong passion for music and songwriting, this well-rounded artist introduces such a wide scope of fresh ideas to the pop and neo-soul scene. Diving into the world of pop back in 2020, the singer-songwriter made a name for herself after releasing her debut single titled ‘Occupy Your Mind’ followed by her breathtaking EP, ‘Blossom In The Dark’. With nearly 20k streams on 'Gravity' alone and over 75k monthly listeners on Spotify total, it's clear that fans around the world have fallen in love with the unique charm that sets Diana apart from other artists! That said, ‘Gravity’ gives us a sweet taste of what’s to come from her two-part EP ‘Tears don’t fall in space’, which is scheduled to come out later this year!
