1) MAJOR KAMI – A Better Future
If you’re looking for a new artist to fall in love with, look no further than MAJOR KAMI. This French-based electro-pop artist has been making waves recently with her single “A Better Future,” and we’ve got the scoop on why you should check it out.
This David Bowie cover of the legendary rock song, ‘A Better Future,’ breaks the rules of the original rock masterpiece in a relaxed and challenging electro-pop setting. The ghostly chorus voices (their past), and the robotic voice in the middle of the song (their future) brought them to the realization that their time is taking a turn they’ve never known; but Major Kami’s voice seeks to soothe them.
The track is a perfect example of what makes MAJOR KAMI so unique: he combines elements from pop music with more experimental sounds like electro and electronica to create something that is both nostalgic and modern at the same time.
It’s nostalgic without being too cheesy or over-the-top, and it’s modern without being too EDM-y or alienating listeners who aren’t into that kind of thing.
MAJOR KAMI is definitely someone who deserves your attention if you like electronic pop music or alternative pop music with catchy beats and soulful vocals.

The Washington, DC native recently released her single “Right Place Wrong Time,” which is a banger that will have you singing along in no time. The song is an anthem about toxic partners.
The song “Right Place Wrong Time” is a song about a toxic relationship and the mental health struggles faced by many young people in today’s world who are struggling to cope with their lives.
Kimberlin’s voice is beautiful, and she has an incredible range that she uses to its full potential on this track. It’s got a commercial sound without being too pop or too alternative; it’s just right!
The lyrics are personal and emotional, but they don’t overwhelm the listener–instead, they draw them into the story she’s telling. Her sound is refreshingly modern while still being accessible to everyone who listens to music.

Charles HS is a UK-based singer-songwriter who has been making waves in the indie pop scene for quite some time now. His new single, Black And White, is a perfect example of what makes him so unique: his dreamy vocals combined with shoegaze elements and lo-fi production.
In order to start the new year, he has launched two new singles called ‘Moonlight’ and ‘Black and White’. Escapism and a desire for an alternative perspective on life are at the core of the story. His song ‘Black and White’ was written while he was taking a break from social media and reflecting on how we live in this society today.
The production quality is great; everything sounds clear and crisp without being overproduced or over-edited. There’s enough space between each instrument so you can hear what each one is doing individually without having too much clutter around them all at once.
Charles’ vocals are soft and smooth, which complements the music perfectly. His voice has just enough grit to give it character while still remaining smooth enough to be pleasant on the ears.
