France | Brigitte - "L'échappée belle"

BRAND NEW

The delicate music of Brigitte returns to our site! After the very nice "Hier encore", the duo is back with "L'échappée belle", a song in which they ooze class. The soft tunes of the verses mingle perfectly with a more movemented chorus!

Armenia | Mihran Tsarukyan - "Ti moya"

BRAND NEW

Mihran Tsarukyan is an Armenian singer from Yerevan. He has just released "Ti moya". It's a fresh and summerish track. The melody throughout all the song, and specially in the chorus, is a big invitation to dance.

Italy | Irene Fornaciari - "Blu"

RECENT

Italian singer Irene Fornaciari was born in Pietrasanta, Italy, in 1983. She took part of this year's Festival di Sanremo with "Blu", a ballad which is very calm in the verses but explodes into a fantastic chorus!

United Kingdom | Raleigh Ritchie - "You're a man now, boy"

BRAND NEW

We are still in love with Raleigh Ritchie's single "Never better", which is surely one of our favorite songs of the year by now. So it was not a surprise that we also fell in love with his new release, "You're a man now, boy". It's another great track, with amazing ambience.

Sweden | Molly Hammar - "Hunger"

BRAND NEW

After the unfair result of 2015, Molly Hammar returned to Melodifestivalen this year with hunger for victory. Unfairly again, the odds weren't in her favour: her catchy and very contemporary entry, "Hunger", couldn't make it to the final of the competition. She still slayed with class and killer vocals in the live performance, leaving all of us with our jaws dropped!

Updated on July 5th, 2018, with the new stage name of the artist.

Because, oh wow, what an excellent song it is! It is a shower of melodic power, wrapped in an absolutely flawless vocal performance by Miro. A true masterpiece, which we elected our song of the week!

France | Amir - "J'ai cherché"

BRAND NEW

Last week, Amir went under all the spotlights in France, after he was named the country's representative on this year's Eurovision Song Contest. He will fly to Stockholm with the song "J'ai cherché", a very modern, catchy and bilingual pop track which has already captured hearts in home soil and expects to do the same in the whole continent!

Norway | Catching Cooper - "Firefly"

RECENT

Time to present a new group of boys who are trying to take over the world: meet Catching Cooper, from Norway. According to their biography, "there is no such thing as a guilty pleasure". And oh, do they show it on their music! Their single "Firefly" could even be qualified as a guilty pleasure. But no: we do not feel guilty of loving it. It's impossible not to, anyway!
