Her new single, “My Collection,” released via Tambourhinoceros, is quite a departure from the alternative rock of her previous records. Inspired by her recent obsession with 1970s songwriters like Judee Sill, Dory Previn, and Scott Walker, the timeless and elegant track starts as a slightly woozy piano ballad before gradually introducing organ, trumpet, and Mellotron. The result is a curious mix of jazz, cabaret, and chamber pop, with Brimheim‘s warm vocals holding everything together. Interestingly, this change of direction came after months of struggling to write new material. As she puts it, “It felt like receiving a gift from the universe.”

“My Collection” follows a mysterious woman who collects things that other people have thrown away, from forgotten objects found in the street to treasures washed up on the beach. These discarded items are actually a metaphor for the parts of ourselves we tend to hide because others don’t appreciate them. It’s a rather sweet idea, although there’s a darker twist: the collector is very protective of her treasures, and anyone who disrespects them might not make it out alive.

The accompanying video, directed by Stine Emil, who previously worked with Brimheim on “Brand New Woman” and “Normies,” was filmed on an old horse farm. With its deliberately timeless atmosphere, it’s hard to tell whether we’re watching something from the present or a century ago. But it is a fitting visual companion for a song that feels nostalgic and wonderfully peculiar.

Despite all that experience, Littauer is only now getting ready to release his debut solo album. Titled Heartbreak Stew, the record arrives on November 13 via Danish label Escho. His previous single, “Okay,” has already made its way into our Best Songs of 2026 playlist, and now Yangze is giving us one last taste of what’s to come.

Despite its rather blunt title, “F*** No” is actually a tender, bittersweet ballad. Built around delicate guitar arpeggios, the track captures that strange feeling of leaving something behind, whether it’s a city, a relationship, or a bit of both. Listen below.

Now she’s back with “Dream Q”, a gorgeous new track that finds her exploring the more delicate side of electronic music. Her unmistakable voice floats over shimmering synths and ethereal melodies, punctuated by delicate harpsichord notes, while the restless, almost mechanical percussion brings a welcome contrast. The whole thing gradually unfolds, blossoming into something even more beautiful in its second half. Roby wrote and recorded most of the song during a 2024 residency at Canada’s National Music Centre, where she also began working on her third album.

The single comes with an equally elegant video directed by Tess Roby herself, filmed alongside Hugo Bernier and edited by Trevor Blumas of E-Prime. Shot along the striking white cliffs of southern England, the cinematic clip follows her wandering through an almost otherworldly landscape. Watch and support below.

On “You Move”, Avery Friedman is in a more playful and confident mood. The guitars are louder, the rhythms more insistent, and there’s a restless energy running through the whole song. Friedman is still interested in the complicated feelings that make us human, but she addresses them in a more straightforward way. This time, she’s singing about the excitement of falling for someone when everything else in your life feels uncertain. It’s about letting yourself want something, even when you have no idea where it’s going.

As she explains, “You Move is about savoring the unexpected fruits that reveal themselves amid times of uprootedness. It is a song about putting trust in the glimmer of new love, and carefully sowing the seeds for it to sustain.” There’s something lovely about the way the song balances desire with vulnerability. Friedman sounds more willing than ever to follow her instincts and enjoy the moment, without needing to know what comes next.

If you liked New Thing, you’ll be happy to know that “You Move” is actually the first single from her upcoming sophomore album, expected in 2027.

The track is a gorgeous, slow-moving piece that seems to drift in and out of focus. Acoustic guitars, delicate strings and soft drums come together around vocals that almost blend into the instrumentation. Rather than sticking to a traditional song structure, Yvy Veins let the different layers unfold naturally, creating something that feels intimate yet slightly out of reach. These are definitely not songs or melodies that reveal all their charms straight away, but each listen brings something new to discover.

Lyrically, “Observer” deals with emotional distance and that strange point when words and feelings begin to lose their meaning. What we feel and what others say eventually seem to blur into the same thing, leaving us questioning whether there’s any point in trying to make sense of it all. There’s a certain resignation in the lyrics, but also something strangely comforting about accepting that not everything needs an explanation.

The song’s blurry, almost weightless atmosphere should appeal to fans of the Copenhagen experimental pop scene, as well as anyone with a soft spot for Dean Blunt‘s more elusive indie pop moments. The upcoming album was actually mastered by Emil Thomsen, who has previously worked with artists including Smerz, ML Buch, Fine, The Crying Nudes and Mica Levi.

Yvy Veins‘s “Observer” also somes with a self-made video, that you watch below.

Co-produced by Zsela and Zack Sekoff, and co-written with Sekoff and Westerman, her new single “Kinda Guy” pairs her vaporous vocals with a restless take on intimacy, desire and the strange self-discovery that can come from getting deeply tangled up with someone else. Zsela describes it more simply as “A lil somethin’ to grab your belt loops to… if you’re that kinda guy”. You can stream it below or via our Forecast Tape playlist before the video drops on Friday.

“end scene” goes straight for the Y2K melodrama. Layered harmonies, emo pop melodies, dramatic strings and video game inspired textures give the track the feeling of a closing sequence from some lost early 2000s movie or console game. DJ Suzy has specifically pointed to Super Mario Galaxy as part of its sonic DNA, while the lyrics imagine a failed relationship as a film whose script has gone off course. “In ‘end scene’, I’m looking back on a relationship as if it were a movie. I wrote a script for how I wanted the relationship to unfold, but my lover didn’t follow it the way I had imagined,” she explains. By the outro, she is watching the credits roll on the life they shared, with all the drama pushed right to the surface. “I love how the dramatic chords and strings play together with the emo-pop melodies, i’m really happy how it turned out.”

Today, she has added one final piece to the puzzle with “Sometimes I Rush”. The evanescent song feels light on its feet but slightly distracted, carried by an upbeat rhythm and Fine’s clipped vocals. There is something sweet and absent minded about it too, like getting caught daydreaming about someone while everything else keeps moving around you.

“Sometimes I Rush” also comes with a video directed by Betty Krag and starring Fine alongside Fie Martens Ljungmann inside a church.
