A quiet piano melody, resonant vocals, and synth atmospherics are the main ingredients of “Christmas In The Machine” by Steven Jones & Logan Sky. Certainly, this is a different kind of Xmas song as it is not festive nor upbeat as we are used to hearing in December. However, I like artists like them who think out of the box and dares to take a dark direction for the holiday season.

First and foremost, listeners can feel a bit melancholy or nostalgic once they pay attention to the lyrics. Personally, all of this makes me think of a dystopian future where there are no dreams and Santa is a matter of the past. In terms of sound, if this reminds you of legendary New Romantic bands, then you have a good ear for music. Indeed, Logan was the keyboardist in Visage, while Steven’s great singing voice often sounds like Depeche Mode’s Dave Gahan. Make sure to watch the visuals below and get your own conclusions.

These days anyone can create lyric videos to hook viewers on YouTube, especially artists as popular as Tove Lo. This Grammy-nominated talent just released cool visuals for “Are U Gonna Tell Her?” featuring Brazilian rapper MC Zaac. Most importantly, I think this is the first time she dares to experiment with hot Latin rhythms. In my opinion, this aspect makes a good match between her carefree vibes and fun/sexy personality. Moreover, if you would like to test your karaoke skills, then I will suggest you watch other previous clips like “Sweettalk My Heart” or “Really Don’t Like U”, this latter features the one and only, Kylie Minogue.

I have been a big fan of Sam Sparro since the release of his 2008 worldwide hit “Black and Gold”. Eleven years have gone by, and the Australian singer keeps his soulful vocals in good condition on the newest single “Everything”. Clearly, he has chosen a sound that reminds us of the early 90s. At the same time, the music video has a vintage vibe to it.

The clip is something pretty funny to watch, plus, Sam’s queer friends will make you laugh. The good news is that this infectious song belongs to his upcoming album, ‘Boombox Eternal’, out on February 21st, 2020. So far, I know that the album’s concept focuses on the celebration of life, love and it’s also a declaration of joy. Can’t wait for it!

You may wonder what makes today’s music edgy. In my opinion, breaking the mold and transcending genre barriers are the key. Hailing from LA, ITSTALENTNIGHT approaches that fresh style by merging Hip-Hop and Electro-Pop sounds. Proof of this is their new single “We Are Who We Are”, featuring Shay J on vocals. Certainly, the rap verses also play an important role. As a result, we have a fun self-expression anthem that promotes individualism. What’s more, the message revolves around being yourself in a world that imposes limitations on your identity. With thoughtful and inspiring original songs coming our way, I think it is worth to keep an eye on them. Stream in full below.

“The Real Nirvana” by Disco Volante is a song about the joys of nightclubbing and escapism. Taking this into account, there is no better way to represent its concept with a trippy video under psychedelic aesthetics. It is no wonder that the liberation of the mind can be also experienced on the dancefloor beneath colorful strobe lights. Indeed, movement meditation is linked to dancing. On the other hand, Disco Volante does not shelve his passion for synths, while lyrics incite us to groove and celebrate life. “The Real Nirvana” is the second single off his upcoming album, ‘The Last Days Of Disco Volante’. Stay tuned for more exciting news!
