Tomorrow Might Be Better – Through it All, I Hope You’ll Wait for Me
Dylan Beresford’s solo, instrumental/post rock project Tomorrow Might Be Better’s debut single ‘Through it All, I Hope You’ll Wait for Me’ is a great sample of what to expect in the near future: Highly, cinematic post rock with emphasis on melody.

New Candys – Zyko
Italy’s best psychedelic, post punk New Candys, is back with another gripping single-video from their upcoming full-length ‘Vyvyd’ (out June 4th)
“Probably the most playful song of the record, with unstable guitars and a heavy marching drum beat — in a way it breaks the fourth wall because it speaks directly to the audience. Zyko is Psycho misspelled. Could be related to the quote “And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music” (Nietzsche).” – New Candys
Matt Love – Gently Wake Me
Aussie founder and songwriter of indie pop legends Even As We Speak (Sarah Records, Shelflife Records), Matt Love is back with new material, and couldn’t be anything less than an indie pop ear-candy with intelligent lyricism…
Isaac Jack – Applesauce
British 18 year old prodigy, Isaac Jack’s ‘Applesauce’ is an indie folk gem of raw emotion, and a vulnerable vocal performance that will haunt you from the very first seconds. Taken from his debut EP ‘The Salt That Stays’ available now!
