Today, we are happy to debut his crepuscular new single “sun7”, before it officially goes live tomorrow. Led once again by e.v.a, a fictional avatar he introduced on previous releases, the track begins with scattered vocal chops and glowing synths, then slowly blooms into something brighter and more physical. There is a strong Y2K feeling in the way the voices flicker and bend, but “sun7” also carries house warmth, lo fi vibes, and a subtle touch of French House nostalgia. As Charly puts it, the track was imagined as a summer soundtrack: “warm, nostalgic and melancholic, like the end of a day at the beach or the last track of a rave at sunrise.” Listen and support below.

Her new single “Shine” feels like a soft door opening onto something hidden. Described as an ode to the clairvoyance of nature and to everything the naked eye cannot quite catch, the dreamy track could almost be heard as the continuation of a song she released last year. As Miranda explains: “I was so addicted to the chord progression at the end of ‘Why My Eyes’ that I wrote ‘Shine’ in an attempt to make that feeling last as long as possible. Shine eventually took on a life of its own and became a sonic vignette of a magical forest, a world which the incredibly talented animator Kaleb Hawkins gave new life to in the music video.” Gentle but alive with mystery, “Shine” follows a feeling until it blooms into its own little world.

Now, she is back with “Untitled”, a song that opens a brighter, more playful chapter while keeping her sense of emotional depth intact. Moving away from the mood of her recent EP, An Almond-Shaped Moon and Four Things I Wish I Never Knew About Myself, which we discovered with “Salt”, she describes her new track as “invoking a bubblier tone to explore the subject of materialism.” Inspired in part by Percy Bysshe Shelley’s sonnet Ozymandias, the song pushes back against the weight we give to possessions and status, instead leaning toward something more personal, more grounded, and more alive. “Nothing stays that’s gold,” she sings, summing up the track’s bittersweet heart in just a few words. Built with producer Peter Duke, “Untitled” wraps that reflection in glowing guitars, distorted drum breaks, and shimmery textures, while Jill adds a beautiful rock edge to her voice. The result is one of her most infectious tracks yet, capturing the strange sweetness of endings, like a sunset you do not want to leave just yet.

Before unveiling very soon her debut album Attraction, Monde Ray has shared a new single. “Peaceful” moves slowly and delicately, carried by an ethereal voice and a tender sense of calm. The nocturnal dream pop song is quietly hypnotic, as if it was made for spring nights, soft lights and dancing under the moon. The poetic single follows previously released singles “Silencieux Témoins”, “Intertwined”, and “Minuit n’a jamais tort”.

Their new single “blue+green” moves with a brighter pulse while still carrying a soft trace of melancholy. First sketched out on a high speed train between Florence and Bologna, the track turns overstimulation, disconnection and longing into something light and strangely radiant. Its hypnotic melodies are carried by rolling indie breaks, deep bass and Maiken’s vocals, which float gently above it all. In the end, “blue+green” feels like an exercise in minimalism, with every element placed just where it needs to be, leaving the whole thing sounding delicate, weightless and evanescent. Stream the track below, or via our daily updated playlist Forecast Tape, which showcases the most notable new releases.

The new preview is “Falling Out Of Grace”, a collaboration with Swedish avant pop artist Namasenda and electronic producer and live coding artist DJ_Dave. Following “Heaven” and “Fade To Black” with Night Tapes, “Falling Out Of Grace” reinvents their album track “Pillow Face”, pushing it into a club adjacent pop space. Namasenda adds a sharp emotional pull, while DJ_Dave gives the track a restless electronic pulse. Together, they help “Falling Out Of Grace” feel like one more echo from the dream, a little louder this time.

Out today, “The Party” follows previous single “Actor” and finds Albert Hertz turning a house party into a whole universe of rooms, hallways, bathrooms, dancefloors, and sudden emotional shocks. Built around a swinging backbeat, restless guitars, and a bright sense of motion, the track feels playful on the surface, but there is something more haunted underneath, as the memory of one encounter starts to loop into obsession. In the lyrics, Hertz sings, “I wanna spin and rewind it”, and that feeling sits right at the heart of the song: the wish to replay a night that briefly made everything feel possible, even as it slips further out of reach.

While she continues working on the project, Vitesse X is keeping us company with a new single: a cover of Filter’s “Take A Picture”, out today via Music Website. In her hands, the late-’90s track becomes hazier and more weightless, guided by trip-hop-leaning drums, atmospheric production, and a tender sense of escape. Speaking about the cover, she explains: “I was listening to ‘Take a Picture’ in the car in the winter, deep in some heavy emotions. I was feeling really detached from the current state of music and exhausted by the demands of the modern world. When the song came on, I was immediately transported back to a feeling I had completely forgotten existed. A time where life felt tangible and simple and pure. It was honestly transcendental. I opened up my phone notes to remind myself to make a cover, and a month later it came to fruition.”
