LAYNE – The Fog
Introducing Los Angeles-based duo LAYNE (aka lead-singer/guitarist Layne Putnam and drummer Alex Rosca).
Their new song ‘The Fog’ follows on from the viral success of their previous two singles, ‘Good’ and ‘Somebody’, and has everything you’d want from a decent electro pop track – lush vocals, bright lyrics, and catchy hooks sculptured around modern production.
Their EP ‘The Black Hills’ is out now.

BONEAGE – G.N.P.M
Moscow based Boneage share curious new track ‘G.N.P.M’ which stands for ‘Good Nights – Pale Mornings’. It follows on from the spiritual single, ‘Crystal Rainbows’.
Speaking to the duo, we were told ‘G.N.P.M’ is about MDMA (also the name of their EP – ‘My Dreams Mean All’, out now) – that feeling you have when you are high, followed by the downward spiral of reality the following morning.
Sounds like: Goldroom, Jessie Ware
Radio Wolf – Song On The Radio

LINNEY – Always
In our eyes LINNEY is already a pop-star. She just seems to have it and you’ll see why when you listen to her new single ‘Always’,
It immediately takes us back to the Britney Spears era of enticing pop tunes that would make us really understand our broken heart.
Sounds like: Britney Spears, Monogem, Paperwhite, Poema, Scavenger Hunt

NUUXS – Real Love
We are suitably winding things down for our last song – ‘Real Love’ French-born artist NUUXS.
The soothing, minimalist-pop track has been co-written and produced by Jake Gosling (Ed Sheeran, Hot Chip, Wiley, The Libertines), so no wonder it has a level of sophistication!
Sounds like: Gwen Stefani, BETSY, Billie Eilish
