Jody Lynn – Dearly Departed

‘Dearly Departed’ has this nostalgic punky girl vibe with more than enough harmony to spare. It’s catchy, and the guitars are exciting and diverse. Additionally, the drums hold themselves well throughout but aren’t too much. The focus in this track is definitely on the nasally punk girl vocals, which have a bit of a scratch in their production in a way that helps them fit the musicality well. In terms of lyrics, it tells a story of power in breaking out of a toxic relationship. It basically says, “You think I’m your dearly departed? Nope, I’m getting out of this with my own power and confidence!”

Morpheus – Dance with me Manuela

‘Dance with me Manuela’ is a beautiful dancey track that doesn’t overwhelm. It has an uptempo sound, but it isn’t a rush of sound. It holds itself well in the way the synths bounce and flow. The lyrics are produced to fit its electronic sound, but they’re delivered with a lot of clarity. This is one of those love songs that just feels, well, lovely. It’s basically asking a loved one to share that connection through dance. But, it relates that to the deeper parts of life with a lover.

Alaïs – I Could Care Less

‘I Could Care Less’ works with melancholic lyrics and dreamy instrumentation to throw listeners into an emotion-filled dreamscape. Though it has a toned-back vibe, the instrumentation is dynamic. This keeps it captivating and pulls away from feeling too one note. On top of that, the chorus is catchy. Lyrically, it explores online dating and how easy attachment can lead to struggles while trying to do so. It captures the feeling of overthinking things and struggling with getting too close.

PatRiff – Sex, Drugs, Rock ‘N Roll

‘Sex, Drugs, Rock ‘N Roll’ also brings a bit of a melancholic vibe into the vocals, but it takes a bit more of a bounce to the instrumentation. The claps in the percussion have a great snap for the beat, and the guitar and bass seem to fly around dreamily. This track was written with a focus on self-discovery, but it covers topics such as making mistakes along the way. Overall, it’s about finding the self through excitement and defiance.

beyond lines – Down

‘Down’ has a captivating mix that fits different parts of instrumentation into different portions for amazing clarity. The instrumentation starts toned back, but a synth drone creates a build that hits in at around :47 with a punch. The guitars and bass work with quick slaps to add a lot of excitement. It seems to tell a story of seeing egos grow due to some sort of newfound popularity but acknowledging the falseness of said ego. It seems to mostly explore the idea of online fame and performance and how it doesn’t feel the same.

Waking April – Rules

‘Rules’ definitely has the electronic banger vibe with its punchy but winding bass synths controlling the instrumentation. Then, there are softer drums in the mix and more synths that bend and weave fill up space as the track evolves. The lyrics are punchy and have a punky twang to them with a lot of emotion behind them. This track explores societal rules placed specifically on women, and it calls out that they’re unwanted.

gina kaz – Pretty

‘Pretty’ has a lot of emotion in the belted but not overdone vocals. The synths have a bit of a vaporwave vibe to them, and the percussion works mostly with a simple bass drum and claps, with a bit of a hi-hat cut. The way the vocals hit power and smooth out throughout the track is well done. This song explores the struggles women have with self-confidence and a call to find it. It’s about finding love for one’s own body and gaining confidence through that.

Kat Velasco – Burning Man

‘Burning Man’ works with electric and sonic sounds but has a bit of a country twang in the vocals. The guitars are captivating, and bassy synths hit later that drive the beat pertinently. Overall, the instrumentation hits all of the right hits, and the way it evolves is cohesive but dynamic. The music itself in this track tells a story. Lyrically, it seems to tell a story of coming out of a difficult situation stronger than before. It takes back the power by assessing where things are now.
