New Music Round-up: Louis Tomlinson, Sigrid, Dave And More
This week we’ve got new music from all your favourite artists. With brand new albums from Sigrid and Dave, new singles from Ava Max and Louis Tomlinson, plus all new tracks from Sam Fender and Sabrina Carpenter… it’s truly an iconic day in the music world.
Here are our top picks you need to add to your playlists:
Singles
Louis Tomlinson - Two Of Us
Baring his soul and the emotions he’s been going through after the loss of his mother, Johanna, to leukemia in 2016, Louis exposes both his pain and strength and pours it out for us to hold onto in this song.
Marshmello Ft. CHVRCHES - Here With Me
In this sweet, upbeat track, Marshmello and CHVRCHES create a song that’s the definition of wearing your heart on your sleeve. There’s no hiding how they feel, and there’s no need to run for cover - because they’re safe under the shield of love.
Khalid - My Bad
In this third single from Khalid’s second studio album, the singer is taking the fall for all that’s gone wrong in his relationship - because he’s going into do not disturb mode. In classic Khalid style, it’s a wavy and free-flowing track, and it’s never hard to fall into Khalid’s cool breeze.
Ava Max - So Am I
In a shout out to all the misfits, Ava has created an anthem that leads on from the message of Sweet But Psycho - embrace your weirdness in all its entirety. Following the pop sound that made her so successful, Ava ignites the flames for us in this song - and we can’t deny that we’re loving the heat.
John Newman - Feelings
In this club dance track, Newman is calling out his lover for not giving him what he deserves, and it’s empowering. Laying his ever-mesmerising vocals and lyrics over a catchy beat that we can’t help but be obsessed with - he’s back and better than ever on this single.
Sam Fender – Hypersonic Missiles
If there’s one thing we’ll never be over, it’s Fender’s ability to capture his feelings on the modern world and put it into seemingly excellent and effortless lyricism that just comes naturally to him. Add to that an instrumental that will have you feeling your heart beat in your throat, and you’ve got another Sam Fender banger.
Chemical Brothers - We’ve Got To Try
Forever impressing us with their unique and polarising style of music, the Chemical Brothers are back with an impressive and original beat on this track. Rising and dipping in all the right places, this beat is undeniably infectious. Oh, and check out the music video to see the coolest dog in all of human history.
Nadia Rose – Airplane Mode
In this feel-good anthem, Nadia Rose is doing it all on her own. Impressing us with her naturally flowing raps, this girl might be in flight mode - but her connection through her music is stronger than ever. This is the International Women's Day bop we needed.
Vampire Weekend – Sunflower / Big Blue
Hitting us with instrumentals that hypnotise us from the go, this bands' ability to compel us in their happy-go-lucky sound is always stellar. Going all acoustic on us in the second track, we’re in our feels but safe in their arms - and there’s no band that makes us feel more at home than Vampire Weekend.
David Guetta & Tom Staar – This Ain’t Techno
There’s no one that can make us fly as high as David Guetta can. Accompanied on the track by Tom Staar, these two know exactly how to put together a beat that can shake us out of any funk.
Sabrina Carpenter – Pushing 20
Sabrina has no time for any of the BS in her life anymore. Verging on the end of her teen years, this girl is coming of age and bringing with her a new lust for life, and she’s not taking any of the fake or phony along with her.
Chlöe Howl - Millionaire
Speaking up this International Women’s Day, Chlöe Howl is taking the stage to call out unhealthy and toxic traits in relationships - and she’s asking for what she deserves. Your worth isn’t determined by your salary but the love you exhibit - and that’s exactly what this song is a message of.
Albums:
Sigrid - Sucker Punch
There’s no theme that’s off the table in this album. Exploring pop in all its glory, this is truly an ode to musical freedom and doing things your own way. Discussing topics such as love, friendship, business and more - it’s Sigrid at her best and in her prime. We don’t think it’s possible for this girl to release anything that doesn’t taste like gold and make us feel like we’re invincible.
Dave - PSYCHODRAMA
Taking us through his past, present, and even looking into the future - Dave delivers an album that almost seems before his time - because he’s not afraid to go where other artists haven’t before. With lyricism that explore social realism, Dave’s own psyche, and an outlook that is nothing but honest and accurate, this debut album is nothing short of pure, unadulterated talent - and we’re obsessed with it.
Foals – Part 1 Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost
Encompassing us and locking us in from the first track, this band have a talent of capturing our undivided attention with their intricate and and intriguing sound. It’s raw and unfiltered, and that’s exactly why we’re in love with it.
Juice WRLD - Death Race For Love
In the second studio album from Juice WRLD, it’s clear we’ve got a leader for all the lost souls out there - and this is their new soundtrack. Channeling the emotional raps that made him so successful, Juice WRLD always knows how to deliver. With a mix of sad, up beat, and all new sounds from the singer, it’s clear he’s on a new level with this catalogue of music.
Gesaffelstein – Hyperion
Coming at us with a project that’s laced with all new original and fresh sounds, Gesaffelstein has teamed up with The Weeknd, Pharrell, HAIM and more on this unique body of music. With music that aligns to all our moods, we can tell it’s going to be on repeat for a long time.
Fuse ODG - New Africa Nation
On a wave of his own, Fuse ODG is always bringing something new to the table with his music. Featuring the likes of Ed Sheeran and Stefflon Don, plus many more, his music is something everyone can move to, and this album impresses as much as it intrigues.
Alesso – PROGRESSO VOLUME 1
Coming at us with 3 new tracks that we can instantly feel will be festival anthems, Alesso knows exactly what he’s doing on this EP. Instantly feeling the electricity from the go, it’s proof he’s a DJ who can hype up any crowd.
