0

BIGHIT MUSIC’s new boy group CORTIS unveils the “GO!” music video, an intro track from their upcoming debut EP ‘COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES,’ offering an early glimpse of their creative spirit as boundary-pushing originals. The five members participated in writing and composing the track, which stands at the crossroads of hip-hop and pop with a minimal trap beat and sharp synth layers. Lyrics like “Bring the new beat” and “We don’t need any other sign” serve as their first declaration to paint the world in CORTIS’ colors, while raw reflections such as “Ever since I was little I been the neighborhood weirdo” add authenticity to their journeys as teens. As self-driven creatives, all five members are credited as co-directors, reworking original footage they conceptualized, filmed, and edited during their trainee days in Los Angeles. The video features dynamic scenes including a 360-degree camera shot from inside their mouths and stop-motion techniques that amplify the energy.


                

Father Figure Conjure Bass Magic with Wild “Abracadabra Holmes” Debut

0

Grand Alliance Music welcomes New York-based duo Father Figure with their debut release “Abracadabra Holmes,” out now, and throwing the rulebook out the window. This wild, bass-laden ride packs hypnotic low-end, playful glitch, and Talladega swagger into a funky, bluesy glitch-hop concoction laced with humor and soul. Born from late-night jam sessions and a healthy obsession with dirty blues riffs and southern-fried movie quotes, the track stands at the crossroads of grit and groove. Built around a slow-rolling 90 BPM swagger, it opens like a spell being cast before hitting listeners with sub-heavy low-end, glitched-out funk, and chopped samples from Talladega Nights that flip Ricky Bobby into a chaotic mascot of the bass underground. The soul of NY hip-hop runs through its veins while swerving into new territory with fearless sound design and unpredictable drops.


                

Noah Hicks Wages War Between Heart and Head in Rock-Fueled “Get Enough”

0

Head and heart collide as Noah Hicks releases “Get Enough,” a rock-forward departure that surges with equal parts frustration and desperation. The Georgia native finds himself caught in the throes of a tumultuous on-again/off-again relationship where destruction and disruption follow close behind, torn between the highs his heart craves and the lows that make his head spin. Written by Hicks alongside Lindsay Rimes and John Pierce, the track erupts from authentic country vocals into a punchy chorus of pure electric guitar-induced catharsis. This is for anyone who keeps going back to someone they just can’t quit, even when they know better. The official music video shot in Hicks’ hometown of Carrollton features beautiful landscape views draped in warm golden hour light coupled with contrasting high-energy performance content, cementing his versatility as an artist and songwriter.


                

Queen Anne Pay Fervent Tribute to David Bowie with Darkly Ethereal “Let’s Dance” Cover

0

David Bowie’s iconic 1980s hit gets a darkly ethereal makeover as American indie-pop duo Queen Anne releases their cover of “Let’s Dance,” out now on all digital platforms. Singer-songwriter Katie Silverman, known for her roles on New Girl, PEN15, and the film The Exorcists, chose the track for its fervent, this-is-our-last-chance energy and as an excuse to revisit Bowie’s profound influence on her artistry. Bowie shaped not just her music but her approach to persona, visuals, and overall vibe. Teaming with writer/producer Sandy Chila, Silverman blends lush ’80s pop melodicism with a sharp post-modern edge, transforming everyday frustrations into emotionally resonant narratives. The result is insidiously catchy and cinematic, inviting listeners into Queen Anne’s sonic universe while setting the tone for what’s to come.


                

Arrows in Action Explore Situationship Limbo in Shimmering “Corner of Your Mind”

0

Swirling melodies and shimmering guitar lines define Arrows in Action’s new single “Corner of Your Mind,” capturing the fleeting connection of an unrequited romance. The rising pop-rock trio describes it as a quintessential situationship song where you prefer being on the back burner after getting burned too many times on the front. You want all the simple pleasures and none of the complex issues, but it never stays that way. The track offers another glimpse into their forthcoming album ‘I Think I’ve Been Here Before,’ out now via Nettwerk. Produced by longtime collaborator Dan Swank, who’s worked with All Time Low, Charlotte Sands, and Pale Waves, the full-length captures the emotional duality of life’s euphoric highs and heart-wrenching lows. Following the hopeful energy of Side A released earlier this year, Side B explores deeper, more vulnerable corners of the human psyche.


                

3OH!3 Capture Carefree Summer Chaos in Nostalgic “SLUSHIE” Video

0

Summer vibes overflow in 3OH!3’s new music video for “SLUSHIE,” a throwback to carefree days spent hanging with friends and grabbing frozen treats. Director Cole Santiago shot the video on an old cassette camera, tapping into that nostalgic energy where anything can happen when you have no plans except hitting the corner store. The band describes it as a visual ode to natural chaos that ensues when you and your crew have nothing to do but see where the day takes you. In true summer fashion, the shoot had its own unexpected moment: they accidentally left the camera in a parking lot, and when they retrieved it, someone had used it. That found footage made its way into the final video, adding authentic appeal to the track’s carefree spirit. Oh yeah, and Nat wears a turkey suit.
