Finland | Ida Paul feat. Kalle Lindroth - "Päiväuni"

BRAND NEW

Ida Paul and Kalle Lindroth have released several great singles along the way. But we feel they've reached their best (so far!) with their latest single. "Päiväuni" is an outstanding track! There are songs that can only work in duos, and it's clearly the case with this one. And with Ida and Kalle, it works even better!

Spain | Miriam Rodríguez - "Desperté"

BRAND NEW

When we first presented Miriam Rodríguez, in 2018, we said she had "everything to establish herself as one of the main names of the Spanish music scene". And single after single, she's been more than confirming our words. For all we know, she can do no wrong! Her new single, "Desperté", proves it once again: it's an excellent song, addictive from first to last second.

Slovenia | Ana Soklič - "Voda"

BRAND NEW

Conventional for the region, unconventional for the country. Slovenia has made its decision for the 2020 Eurovision, and they are going to Rotterdam with a Balkan ballad. "Voda", by Ana Soklič (Bohinj, 1984), is a great approach on the genre, exploring the best of her voice (one of the most impressive in this year's competition). We love it!
