BRI FLETCHER – NEW HER (EP)

Nashville-based country artist BRI FLETCHER returns to NLM roundup with six-track EP, ‘New Her’, a project about two years of personal growth, changing relationships, and self-discovery.

Throughout 2025 and 2026, Fletcher has continued building on her country roots while incorporating R&B and pop influences. ‘New’ Her brings together her singles ‘what the hell?,’ ‘Rocket Science,’ ‘Detox,’ ‘Help Myself,’ and the title track, alongside ‘Now You Know Better,’ to tell a cohesive story about finding direction, navigating relationships, and learning to give herself grace.

“I wanted to create New Her because this EP tells a story of growth in so many different ways. The last two years of my life have been filled with so much change, revelation, and self-discovery. I wanted to create a project that felt just as dramatic, emotional, and transformative as those experiences.” – Bri Fletcher.

‘New Her’ EP is out today. Listen below…

LAUREN ANDERSON – A RIDGLAN BEAGLER

LAUREN ANDERSON is not shying away from standing her ground. Written from the perspective of a Beagle, ‘Ridglan Beagle’ tells the story of life on Ridglan Farms, a breeding and research facility in Wisconsin that has experimented on Beagles. Anderson uses the song to shine a light on the animals’ suffering while combining two of her greatest passions: music and animal advocacy.

​“I feel it in my bones when I hear about animal cruelty. So when I heard about the Ridglan Farms beagles, I couldn’t help but get involved in any way I could. I wanted to write a song to help spread the word about everything: the continued pain we’re causing animals that needs to be stopped, the kind people who released the beagles who are now in jail for it, and the thousands of beagles that are now given a 2nd chance in life! Let’s spread the word and end animal testing!”

​Bringing her signature bluesy sound to a deeply personal subject, Anderson turns ‘Ridglan Beagle’ into more than a song. It’s a call for awareness, compassion, change, and giving a voice to animals that cannot speak for themselves.

‘Ridglan Beagle’ is out today. Why not listen below…

HGM – LOSE YOUR MIND

‘Lose Your Mind’ is a UK rage track built for the mosh pit: blown-out, distorted 808s, aggressive synth stabs and a shouted British vocal. It builds through a countdown into a chant-along hook (“lose your mind, let me see you let go”) made for crowds, gym sessions and late-night drives. For fans of the UK underground and rage scene.

HGM (George) is an artist from South East England whose music journey began in 2017. His tracks mix styles and tell parts of his story. ‘Lose Your Mind’ is out today. Listen below…

DEBBIE RYVERS – ALL MY LOVE

With a career shaped by reggae heritage, soul, R&B and jazz, British vocalist DEBBIE RYVERS continues to build on a remarkable musical legacy with her latest single, ‘All My Love’. Produced by Debbie and her longtime studio engineer Dean Richards AKA Joe 90, the disco-infused release brings together funk, soul, R&B and pop, placing Ryvers’ distinctive vocals at the centre of a warm, uplifting and deeply melodic production.

Born to Jamaican parents, music was embedded in Ryvers’ upbringing from the very beginning. Influenced by the soulful sounds of Aretha Franklin, Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield and Diana Ross & The Supremes, alongside reggae pioneers including Dennis Brown, Alton Ellis, John Holt, Bob Andy, Marcia Griffiths and Bob Marley, she developed a vocal identity informed by both American soul and the reggae and sound system culture of her West Indian heritage. Her early exposure to opera and classical vocal technique further broadened her musical palette, contributing to the versatility that has remained a defining characteristic of her career.

‘All My Love’ was released yesterday (8th October). Listen below…

MILA SIDHU – ONE NIGHT

London-born singer-songwriter MILA SIDHU steps into her power with her latest single ‘One Night’, a sultry fusion of alt-pop and R&B influences that brings her Indian heritage into her music with intoxicating results.

Confident, sensual and rhythmically charged, ‘One Night’ captures the electricity of entering a room knowing all eyes are on you. Rather than chasing somebody else’s attention, Mila flips the dynamic, embodying the person with the power to choose.

“‘One Night’ is about walking into a room being a beautiful girl and knowing you can have anyone you want in that room,” Mila explains.

‘One Night’ is out now. Check out the sultry video below…

PENNI LAYNE – EVERYDAY I FALL IN LOVE

Boston-based vocalist and songwriter PENNI LAYNE returns with ‘everyday i fall in love’, a new album that finds her moving fluidly between jazz, soul and R&B while remaining firmly focused on the emotional heart of each song. Rather than being defined by genre boundaries, Layne’s latest collection is rooted in intimacy, warmth and lived-in songwriting, bringing classic jazz repertoire together with her own original material, written alongside her longtime musical collaborator and husband, bassist and vocalist Larry Jackson.

Recorded at New York City’s legendary Sear Sound and produced by Layne and Jackson, ‘everyday i fall in love’ places chemistry and spontaneity at the centre of its sound. Joined by pianist Michael Kanan, upright bassist Neal Miner and guitarist Greg Ruggiero, Layne and Jackson deliberately avoided over-engineered arrangements, instead allowing the record to develop organically in the studio. With the musicians recording together live, arrangements evolved through instinct, communication and close listening, capturing the natural interplay that has become one of the album’s defining qualities.

NICK RYAN – NEVER EVER

NICK RYAN is back with a heartfelt, nostalgic Y2K inspired feel that’s sure to have you thinking about a long lost lover, friend, or someone who left a lasting mark on your life. Ryan perfectly captures the feeling of confronting someone who betrayed you and walked away when you needed them most, with lines like: “You want back in / But where were you then? / The end was the end / I’ll tell you again, I’ll tell you again”

Ryan gets vulnerable about what it feels like to close your heart off for good, singing, “Never ever / Not gonna open up my heart / Never ever / Not gonna be torn apart,” and how that kind of hurt can change you permanently. That vulnerability shines through in his voice, giving the song an emotional weight that lingers long after the final note. Ryan perfectly delivered a song that feels instantly familiar, yet entirely his own.

‘Never Ever’ is out today for your pleasure.

HANDSHAKE IN SPACE – WAITING FOR YOU

Swedish electronic producer HANDSHAKE IN SPACE returns with single, ‘Waiting For You’, a must-have for the dancefloor!

It captures a transformative narrative—moving from reflective verses into explosive, emotional drops.

The monochrome triple-exposure artwork reflects the song’s message of resilience and mental health awareness, serving as an ode to finding light after dark periods.

“‘Waiting For You’ represents the transition out of prolonged isolation and mental struggle. It’s a testament to patience, presence, and the moment when the darkness finally begins to fade away.” – Stefan Halling (Handshake In Space).

MARIAM DAVINA – CERTAINTY

MARIAM DAVINA returns with ‘Certainty,’ a soulful Christian R&B track about trusting God when we cannot see or understand what lies ahead. Inspired by Hebrews 11:1, the song is a reminder that our faith is rooted not in what we see, but in who Christ is. Through every season, Mariam encourages listeners to walk by faith and remain certain of God.

Mariam draws inspiration from artists including Mary Mary, Kierra Sheard, Koryn Hawthorne and Ahjah Walls. Growing up leading worship and ministering in church shaped her distinctive sound, confident stage presence and powerful vocals.

JULIE EDDY –  ’74 NOVA

JULIE EDDY is back with ‘’74 Nova,’ a feel-good country anthem about loving your roots, chasing your dreams, and driving straight toward freedom. Inspired by her dad’s first car, a 1974 Nova, the song captures the push and pull between where you come from and where you’re headed.

The chorus is the heart of the song, perfectly capturing that feeling: “Roots holding me down but my heart strings pulled me harder / Driving me crazy to stay hell bent to get farther / Headed anywhere somewhere south of South Dakota / Foot on the gas, hand out the window of a ‘74 Nova.”

Eddy shares, “‘74 Nova’ was inspired by my dad’s love for old cars. His very first car was a ’74 Nova…He has always joked with me about writing a song about his Nova and my siblings, and I have always joked about who was eventually going to get the car passed on to them, so I wrote a hypothetical situation into this song that he gave the Nova to me, and I moved to Nashville with it to chase my dreams. All of the video and photo content for the song was shot with my dad’s Nova in my small town in South Dakota right down the road from where I grew up. This song makes me feel nostalgia, hope, and anticipation for what’s next, a deep appreciation for my roots, and has quickly become one of my favorite songs I’ve ever recorded.”

”74 Nova’ is out today across all leading music platforms.

RAMI – SAVE MYSELF

RAMI makes a striking introduction with a heartfelt song titled, ‘Save Myself’ that showcases both her emotional depth and undeniable vocal presence. Backed by a talented team that includes a Grammy winning songwriter and engineer, she is quickly establishing herself as an artist to watch in the pop space.

From the very first notes, Rami’s voice remains front and center, carrying the weight of the story as the song builds from quiet reflection into powerful, emotionally charged moments.

​About the song, she explains, “From the beginning, I knew I wanted the song to be personal. I wanted to create a ballad about a very difficult period of my life — a time of loss, confusion, and feeling as though everything around me was falling apart. But I did not want the story to end in sadness. The most important part was what came afterward: finding my own strength, putting myself back together, and realizing that I had the power to save myself.”

​That journey from feeling lost to reclaiming her own strength is woven throughout the song, coming to life in powerful lyrics like, “I was tired of waiting for someone / To come rescue me from what I’d done” and “All alone in a tower big and tall / But I was the prince here after all.”

​With its powerful message, Rami proves she has something meaningful to say, and the voice to make you listen.’Save Myself’ is out today from all leading platforms.

MCMILLIN – I LOSE

MCMILLIN‘s ‘I LOSE’ turns overthinking into something visceral, capturing the exhausting cycle of second-guessing every possible outcome until there’s nowhere left to go. The song’s chorus puts that feeling into sharp focus: “Freezing up with every choice I have to choose / Fearing the future could be colder than the Ice I’ve fallen through.” That anxiety builds into the song’s defining realization: “It’s a mental game that imitates a twisted truth / Played 100 ways from every point of view / And in every case I lose.”

McMillin describes the track as “a heavy rock joint that underscores lyrics of inadequacy, defeat and self-doubt,” adding that its sound is built around “a darkness and light of angelic synths battling dark and aggressive guitars.” That contrast is central to ‘I LOSE,’ which moves from tightly wound tension into a crushing half-time breakdown before unexpectedly dissolving into a hazy, synth-driven passage. The result is a song that moves through pressure, collapse, and emotional exhaustion without offering an easy resolution.

‘I LOSE’ is out today across all leading music platforms.

CLARITY LIAO – LOSE

Emerging singer-songwriter CLARITY LIAO steps fully into her solo era with new single ‘Lose’, the focus single from her upcoming debut EP ‘Dear…,’, a seven-song collection of intimate musical letters exploring love, jealousy, rejection, loneliness and the complicated process of finally letting go.

‘Lose’ is an upbeat pop track that captures the emotional chaos of fearing that someone you love is falling for somebody else. 

Born from Clarity’s heartache over a boy she deeply cared for, ‘Lose’ confronts the jealousy that emerged when another girl appeared to embody everything Clarity feared she wasn’t. What begins as projection and comparison gradually becomes something more accepting, as Clarity faces the possibility that the relationship she desperately wants may never exist.

Moving between indie pop, R&B, bedroom pop, contemporary singer-songwriter influences and modern doo-wop, ‘Lose’ adopts its own musical personality while remaining connected by Clarity’s candid storytelling.

Originally, she imagined the song as a sparse, Adele-inspired piano ballad, allowing its vulnerability to sit almost completely exposed. Once in the studio, however, the production took an unexpected turn. Upbeat drums and electric guitar transformed the track into something far more energetic, creating a playful contrast with lyrics filled with jealousy, insecurity and emotional turmoil.

“This song is one of my favorites,” Clarity explains. “It shows my jealousy and madness in a fun upbeat way. At first I was doubting the upbeat drums and electric guitar, aiming for a soft mellow vibe, but the more I stuck with the process, the more I understood what this letter was really trying to explain to the receiver.”

‘Lose’ is now available across all music platforms.

SAMSARA – SWORDFIGHT

London-based, Australian-born artist SAMSARA steps into a bold new chapter with ‘Swordfight’, a brooding yet exhilarating new EP that sees the 22-year-old fully embracing the artist she has become. Raised in Hong Kong and now based in London, Samsara has developed a singular approach to contemporary pop, using emotionally charged songwriting, maximalist electronic production and a theatrical visual identity to explore themes of identity, sexuality, transformation, vulnerability and power.

Across ‘Swordfight’, Samsara turns deeply personal experiences into something immediate, danceable and unapologetically pop. The EP exists firmly within her own electronic-pop universe, balancing moments of emotional exposure with the confidence and theatricality that have become central to her artistic identity. Rather than presenting a polished version of her story, Samsara allows the contradictions to remain, vulnerability can sit alongside bravado, while difficult experiences become fuel for something celebratory and empowering.

Focus track ‘Stab ’n Smile’ captures that tension particularly well. A euphoric rush of synth-driven electro-pop, the track pairs propulsive production with lyrics that cut considerably deeper than its infectious surface suggests. There is a familiar immediacy to its melodic synth work, while Samsara’s commanding vocal delivery gives the track its own unmistakable character. It is pop built for movement, but with something much more personal at its core.Check out ‘Swordfight’ below…

WORMOGENIC – 16

Emerging alt-pop artist WORMOGENIC continues to build serious momentum with ‘16’, a shimmering dream-pop rush that further establishes her as one of the genre’s most distinctive new voices. Blending glossy synth textures with gritty electronics, driving bass and an instinctive pop sensibility, the Florida-raised artist delivers a track that is as emotionally candid as it is immediately infectious.

Raised on Florida’s coast, Wormogenic draws on the turbulence and contradictions of adolescence to shape a sound that sits at the intersection of retro-inspired pop, grunge-edged alternative and contemporary dream pop. Her music embraces the colourful, camp and unapologetically expressive side of modern alternative pop, pairing sharp songwriting with a willingness to explore the less polished realities of growing up.

On ‘16’, that approach comes into particularly sharp focus. Written from a place of isolation and emotional uncertainty, the track examines self-sabotage, anxiety and the uneasy feeling that happiness can disappear just as quickly as it arrives. Wormogenic turns those themes into an anthemic, hook-driven statement, with a darker synth edge recalling the atmospheric pulse of New Order adding further depth to the track’s otherwise luminous production.

“I wrote 16 after a bad birthday where I felt isolated and lonely,” Wormogenic explains. “16 is the thesis statement of the EP. It’s synth inspired by Chappell Roan, Olivia Rodrigo and Dan Nigro’s production work. It’s about coping with growing up and it’s the song I’m most proud of on the EP.”

Built around gritty guitars and bass, expansive synths and a striking central chorus, ‘16’ demonstrates an artist already displaying an unusually assured understanding of songwriting and sonic identity. Despite being only her third single, Wormogenic continues to expand her musical world at a rapid pace, suggesting an artist with ambitions that extend well beyond the emerging alternative scene.

The single arrives ahead of her forthcoming debut EP, ‘Bandaids’, where Wormogenic will continue exploring the emotional contradictions of teenage life.

ANTHONY CHURCH – STARING (FT. CHESTER WATSON)

Northeast Ohio producer ANTHONY CHURCH connects with the distinct style and voice of Chester Watson to deliver ‘Staring’, the lead single to his upcoming compilation album ‘Grateful Is An Understatement’.

Delving into the realms of astral projection, this cut sees Watson weaving intricate lyrics over a Jazzy Hip-Hop melody that soars past the cosmos.The track’s energy is captured in full force with its accompanying visual piece animated and directed by Sigmund Washington.

‘Staring’ is now out across all leading music platforms. Check out the visualiser below…

BEKREATIVE – FRONT PORCH REVALUATIONS

OUT TODAY: Nana Koloda and Sayhelooo Unveil New Single, ‘Lift Him Up’

Ukrainian duo artist NANA KOLODA and producer SAYHELOOO are set to ignite dance floors worldwide with their new single, ‘Lift Him Up’, out today (18th September) across all major streaming platforms. The track is the lead single from their forthcoming four-track EP of the same name.

Blending electronic, techno and pop with an unapologetically powerful energy, ‘Lift Him Up’ explores the greater divine within each of us. The track encourages listeners to awaken their inner light and strength, allowing what already exists within to rise to the surface.

‘Lift Him Up’ follows their well-received track, ‘Zozulia’, which generated support from multiple radio stations around the world.

United by their passion for music and a desire to create on their own terms, Nana Koloda and Sayhelooo’s collaboration is rooted in artistic freedom rather than following trends or seeking to appease the masses. Instead, they invite listeners into their distinctive and esoteric approach to electronic music — one that feels deeply personal yet remains open and inclusive. 

Nana Koloda’s passion for music began at a young age and intensified during her time working in clubs as a dancer. Her love for electronic music developed through discovering the work of artists including Boris Brejcha, Black Coffee and Worakls, influences that continue to shape her artistic identity.

For Sayhelooo, the journey into electronic music began after listening to Apparat’s hit ‘Escape’. Like Nana, his connection with music dates back to childhood, with Queen among his earliest major influences. His evolving fascination with eclectic rhythms has since opened doors to creating music for advertising and film.

The duo continues to embody what their burgeoning collaboration stands for with ‘Lift Him Up’ — a track that moves confidently between the underground and the mainstream without compromising its identity. 

‘Lift Him Up’ is out today (18th September) via all music platforms. Check it out below…
