Mar Lamar - ‘Someone To Blame’

After years fronting indie project Highland Kites, LA-raised, Nashville-based artist Marissa Lamar reemerges as Mar Lamar with her debut solo single ‘Someone to Blame’. Blending indie-pop charm with witty lyricism and bold self-reflection, the track marks a fearless new chapter born from creative rebirth, motherhood, and a refusal to take life too seriously.

Blendin’Era - ‘Child Of Fortune’

Germany-based collective BLENDIN'ERA return with ‘Child of Fortune’, a five-track EP that fuses dance-pop flair with global energy.

Japhet - ‘Zack & Cody’

Calgary-based hip hop artist Japhet returns with ‘Zack & Cody’, a slick trap anthem blending melodic guitar, sharp lyricism, and a nod to his own grind and global roots. Inspired by both struggle and success, the track captures the “suite life” mindset, balancing hustle and flair with unmistakable confidence.

Pepous People - ‘Cheater’

Newcomers Pepous People have arrived with force, releasing their debut album ‘Banshee’, a ten-track journey through identity, rebellion, and raw emotion. Born from garage sessions and inspired by a stray kitten named Pepous, the record blends psychedelic grit, blistering guitar work, and standout moments like the anthemic single ‘Cheater’, making it a powerful first statement from a band unafraid to bare it all.

Versus Savannah - ‘No Sleep’

After six years away, UK punk-grunge trio Versus Savannah return in full force with ‘No Sleep’, a five-track barrage of angst, adrenaline, and raw emotion. Led by its blistering title-track, the EP channels the fury of early 2000s punk with jagged riffs, gravel-laced vocals, and anthemic choruses built for cathartic live shows.
