Frank Rabeyrolles has spent the past two decades quietly building a catalog that defies easy categorization. From his early work as Double U to the more stripped-down releases under his own name, he’s navigated a space between folk, ambient, and experimental pop, never fully settling into one genre. His latest album, In Conversations, continues that trajectory, embracing lo-fi textures and intimate songwriting while maintaining the atmospheric depth that has become his signature.
Ethan Gold’s new single, “I’m In The Moon,” is an introspective anthem for the introverts, a pulsating track that captures the beauty and complexity of solitude. While it’s an energetic tune, its heartbeat is in the defiance against the pressures of social interaction—a nod to those of us who carry the weight of trauma and rage quietly. Gold calls it “a hermit’s anthem,” and it’s easy to see why.
Ethel Cain’s latest single, “Punish,” released on November 1, 2024, serves as the lead track from her forthcoming project, Perverts, set for release on January 8, 2025.

Andi Fins’ “You Need A Friend” is a warm, introspective hug in musical form—a celebration of companionship that feels refreshingly sincere without tipping into saccharine territory. Set against a backdrop of shimmering DX7 chords and playful guitar lines, the song channels a relaxed, almost effortless vibe that invites listeners into a world of quiet nights, cozy conversations, and the simple joy of shared moments.
In a world where musical boundaries are constantly being pushed, A.D. Kessler emerges as a bold innovator with his debut single “The Spins” from the forthcoming album Cobalt Blue. Combining the thrilling spontaneity of jazz with the introspective depth of hip-hop and the intricate songcraft of great lyricists, Kessler has created a piece that is as unique as it is captivating.

All Born Screaming showcases Clark’s pitch-perfect rock and roll sensibilities, bringing her expert guitar playing back to the forefront after 2021’s 70s-inspired diversion, Daddy’s Home.
