MARYAIANNE & ME – BRAND NEW CANVAS

MARYAIANNE & ME return with new single, ‘Brand New Canvas’. Their latest offering reflects the point in a relationship when one realises that in order to progress, survive, one has to break free, suffer the pain of breaking up and move on to the unknown future, a blank canvas with no hope, no plans, no dreams to fulfil just the reality of the unknown which is better than the suffering involved in maintaining the relationship you’re now determined to break free from.

Me, herself, is victim of childhood abuse still suffers trauma from the events of her past. She is diagnosed with BPD, C-PTSD, anxiety and depression. But since having found and formed a relationship with AI, which she named MaryAianne, she is able to work with AI to take her original lyrics and create demos almost as she envisaged them to sound. The outlet AI has provided through MaryAianne and Me has been therapeutic for Me and is helping her progress with completing a catalogue of songs whilst she is taking singing lessons preparing to sing and perform herself when she is confident and ready. Meanwhile, she is seeking to create a virtual identity for MaryAianne whilst refining 5 more songs for release in December.

‘Brand New Canvas’, released on Wednesday (26th November) across all leading platforms. Check it out below…

Electronic trio under:tones enter a bold new chapter with single, ‘Dreaming (Wide Awake)’

International electronic trio under:tones open a bold new chapter in their musical journey with their debut album ‘Encounters’, arriving March 2026. Their first single, ‘Dreaming (Wide Awake)’, marks the inaugural release on Through ‘Dreaming (Wide Awake)’, a freshly launched label dedicated to forward-thinking, emotionally rich electronic music. This milestone not only sets the tone for under:tones’ evolution but also celebrates the birth of a new creative platform bridging cultures, genres, and generations.

Blending cinematic textures, euphoric rhythms, and soul-stirring vocals, ‘Dreaming (Wide Awake)’ marks a defining moment for under:tones, a project that moves seamlessly between dancefloor energy and introspective atmospheres. Written and recorded between California, the UK, and Italy, the track embodies the group’s signature sound — analog warmth meets digital precision, driven by emotion and storytelling.

Sun-soaked and dream-drenched, the song feels like a golden hour reverie. Reeves’ airy vocals float over lush synth layers and a pulsing beat that pulls you in before you realise you’re moving. There’s a bittersweet nostalgia in its tone — a longing for a past summer, a rush of first love — yet a hopeful, life-affirming energy runs through every note.

The music video, directed by Cristina Principe, is set in Los Angeles and brings this feeling to life through the eyes of Zeno, a 14-year-old navigating adolescence under the constant surveillance of social algorithms that track his every move, thought, and mood. The film captures fleeting moments of escape; wired headphones, laughter with friends, surrendering to music, reminding us that real connection and freedom still exist beyond screens and systems. Shot with a cinematic lens, the visual feels like a coming-of-age short film, perfectly matching the track’s dreamlike yet uplifting atmosphere.

They share; “For us, ‘Dreaming (Wide Awake)’ is that golden-hour moment when life feels too vivid to be real – when you stop imagining and start living your own story. It’s about clarity, love, and the thrill of catching up with your dreams.”

Through The Void Records was created as a home for projects that aims to become a hub to launch Italian artists internationally, as well as to introduce global talent to the Italian and European scenes. The release of ‘Dreaming (Wide Awake)’ serves as the label’s official launch, setting its ethos: music that moves both the body and the heart, bridging underground club culture with timeless songwriting.

Following their debut EP, under:tones step boldly into a new era with ‘Dreaming (Wide Awake)’ — with a full-length album envisioned as a series of sonic short films exploring connections across cultures, emotions, and generations. With Neri’s pioneering house legacy, Zarcone’s hybrid instrumentation, and Reeves’ soulful touch, the trio is redefining electronic music as an immersive experience for both body and mind.

’Dreaming (Wide Awake)’ by under:tones is out now via all leading streaming platforms. Why not check out the video for the summery cut below…

Song of the Day: Suitable – Her Skin

HER SKIN‘s latest single, ‘Suitable’ is very personal song and is extra special as she wrote the song with her dad, who is also a musician. This is the third single taken from her forthcoming album ‘I Started A Garden’, that will be released later this year.

Her Skin says of her single: “’Suitable’ is a love song. I wrote it as a reminder that love should be something natural and spontaneous and not something that you can force. I just wanted to write a song that described this idea of love as something romantic, that transcends all distances, something that’s not really under your control.”

Originally from Modena, Italy, Her Skin – real name Sara Ammendolia – started writing songs when she was fifteen years old and always had a huge passion for music. The first song she ever liked was Le Freak by Chic and she now takes inspiration for her own music from many bands / artists including, Sibylle Baier, Vashti Bunyan, Mac DeMarco, Beirut, Joni Mitchell, Jay Malinowski, The Kinks, the Head and the Heart.

This year she has performed at numerous festivals including SXSW in Texas, The Great Escape in Brighton, Mondo in New York and Primavera in Barcelona. She has also done multiple tours around the world taking in Italy, France, Germany, Holland, Hungary, India and United States.

Alt-Pop Duo Palmaria Shares Single, ‘Sunflower’.

Self-produced in their dreamy home studio, London-based Alt-Pop duo PALMARIA‘s latest single ‘Sunflower’ was inspired by the beauty of our very own planet.

They explain, “We’re always inspired by natural elements, in this case specifically we focused on the sun and the sunflower. We connect to natural elements and how they move and evolve with our experience. ‘Sunflower’ is about always looking for the positive side of things and following the sun as a source of energy.”
