Spain | Edurne - "Basta"

BRAND NEW

Edurne's "Amanecer" was one of the most underrated results of this year's Eurovision Song Contest. But, even with the disappointing and unfair feedback from Europe, she hasn't given up on making great music. And "Basta" is a huge proof of this: it's another excellent track of hers! The single has one of the catchiest choruses of the year. And Edurne's vocal performance is as great as the song demands. We are in love, and it's obviously our song of the week.

Poland | Lanberry - "Podpalimy swiat"

BRAND NEW

Lanberry is a Polish singer hailing from Warsaw. Her music is superbly unique: a touch of pop, a touch of electronica, a powerful voice and a great amount of charisma is what we can find in "Podpalimy swiat", a song to truly captivate you with just one listen!

Germany | Namika - "Hellwach"

BRAND NEW

Not long ago, Sounds European! presented the German singer Namika, with her debut single "Lieblingsmensch". It became a huge hit in Germany and neighboring countries – which points to a new rising star being born in the region. With her second single "Hellwach", she took part of this year's Bundesvision Song Contest. Namika didn't win the festival (she ended as seventh), but she was surely one of our overall favorites (if not the biggest one!).

North Macedonia | Lozano - "Kako tebe nema druga"

RECENT

Vlatko Lozanoski, better known for his stage name Lozano, is a Macedonian singer born in the city of Kičevo in 1985. He represented his country at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2013 in a duet with famous singer Esma Redžepova, with the song "Pred da se razdeni", sadly not making it to the final. His latest single is a great mixture of Balkan sounds and contemporary pop: "Kako tebe nema druga" really shows Lozano's talent!

France | Anthony Touma - "La colère du monde"

RECENT

Born in Paris in 1992, but raised in Lebanon, Anthony Touma is a singer and songwriter. His single "La colère du monde" is exactly what we like from French pop. It has power and intensity in the exact measure: it's strong, but not offensive, and it's very marking. It is a song with personality, and we surely love it.

Germany | Madsen - "Küss mich"

RECENT

It's time for us to check one more song which took part on this year's Bundesvision Song Contest. Now, we meet the band Madsen, which was formed in the city of Priesseck in 2004. After taking part of the German festival in 2008, they've now returned to it with "Küss mich". With this high-quality rock song, which has great melody and a very strong chorus, they repeated their previous result – ending with the fourth place.

Switzerland | Pegasus - "Lay low"

RECENT

We talked about Swiss band Pegasus by the beginning of 2015, thanks to their single "Last night on Earth". They are now back with us with a totally different sound: "Lay low" is a deep, intense downtempo track, perfect to relax after a hard day!

Russia | Alena Valensiya - "Budu dlya tebya"
