Just Added: Cheat Codes – Put Me Back Together (feat. Kiiara)

Another fine piece of pop from Cheat Codes (@cheatcodesmusic), backing beautiful vocals from Kiiara. Born in 1995 (real name Kiara Saulters, named after the Lion King character???) she released her debut major label single Gold in 2015. She has collaborated with Linkin Park on Heavy (on our playlist). Enjoy!

Just Added: Sofi Tukker – Baby I’m A Queen

A great new single from US duo Sofi Tukker (@sofitukker), Sophie explained on Twitter:

 

 

 

Baby I’m A Queen” is about embracing tumultuousness and vulnerability. Just because you are vulnerable doesn’t mean you have to let yourself be belittled or infantilized. (Why is “baby” the default nickname?) We are strong and empowered because we cry, because we desire, and because of what is chaotic about us. This song is about standing up as powerful and strong because of that courage to share ourselves. It’s about being both a baby and a queen at the same time.

A new album TREEHOUSE (yes their capitals) is coming next month.

 

Just Added: Calum Scott – Give Me Something

A product of the Britain’s Got Talent gristmill, Calum Scott (@calumscott) began writing his own songs. The process of creating his first album was delayed as he realised he needed to write from a position of honesty, especially about his sexuality. Newly released Only Human is the result of that process. Although this song isn’t a big single, we think its a standout number. Calum commented about it on Twitter:

“written about the desperation of love. Those situations when the other person puts up their walls and won’t let you in. Sometimes you just need something to work with, some sort of signal to show it’s worth the fight.”

Just Added: Rae Morris – Someone Out There

This song off Rae Morris’ new album Someone Out There is a stunning, simple song. Her multitracked harmonies rise over a simple piano backing track (the Guardian accurately found a hint of Bjork in her vocals). Very satisfying and a track we’re looking forward to including in our mix. More to come from this talented lady.

Just Added: G Flip – About You

New on the playlist is this gem from Australian artist Georgia Flipo (@gflipmusic). It’s her debut single but you wouldn’t think so. She’s a multi instrumentalist and builds layers of vocals, synths, bass and drums. The song warms up slowly, cleverly holding off revealing the hook as long as it can. Looking forward to hearing more from G Flip.
