Italian singer Francesco Gabbani returns to our site with a brand new single! "Volevamo solo essere felici" is a classic, mid-tempo ballad that mixes pop, synth and soft rock in perfect quantities. The song talks about the ability to overcome one's own insecurities and pursue just happiness.
Emma Kok is a Dutch singer hailing from Kerkrade. She has just won the tenth season of The Voice Kids in the Netherlands. And now, she is releasing a single, entitled "Laat mij een vlinder zijn". It's a cool pop song with a cute melody and a marvelous vocal performance.
This Daze come from Trondheim, Norway, with their self-described fuzz-pop. Established in 2019 and gaining ground in the local music scene, they now land on Sounds European! with their latest single, "Cigarette smile". The song is the perfect mix between pop, rock and grunge sounds.
On the track, the band comments that it is "the colourful person outside the pub with a cig between their lips. The song portrays adolescent themes of distant love together with the figurative and literal fear of meeting each other. (...) This song for us encapsulates the feelings of youth and being young. We feel that both the lyrics, the attitude of our performances and the urgency of the song reflects being young".
Cypriot star Loukas Yorkas has just released a new single. We are talking about "An m' agapas". It's a great pop song with smooth verses and an intense and highly addictive chorus. Loukas' voice takes it all to an even higher level. We are completely addicted: it's our song of the week.
Our friends from H.E.R.O. made another fantastic collaboration, this time with Swiss singer Melissa Bonny (Montreux, 1993). The song is called "Monster", and it draws into a heavier kind of rock, also including synth elements. It's a fabulous track!
Belgium's Regi and the Netherlands' Emma Heesters got together to release a new single. And what a great one it is! "Zwaartekracht" is a retro synth-pop song with an exciting energy and a very entertaining chorus.
Spanish band Veintiuno are back with us! They have recently released "La ruina", a compelling rock track that encapsulates a charming retro feeling with lyrics that play between wishes for the future and nostalgic memories from the past.
Cristóvam is back with us! He has recently released "Golden days", a cozy sample of guitar-driven pop.
On the track, Cristóvam comments: "I think there's a beautiful parallelism between spring and youth, and I'm hoping that we captured some of it in this song. It was [written on] a sunny morning and the sunlight had this tonality that reminded me of an old photo I had from 2009. That photograph was taken on a holiday trip with a group of friends. We were all teenagers, some of us approaching 20 and going through that nostalgic feeling of reaching the twilight of your youth. I always think of that specific photo as the perfect representation of the golden days of mine".
French singer Clara Luciani keeps conquering us with her unique take on disco-infused pop. This time, it is with her latest single, "Amour toujours", that she hits the nail on the head: the verses are hypnotizing, and the addition of strings in the chorus makes it just irresistible!
