You don\u2019t immediately grip the beat, it\u2019s more like you step into the song and submerge yourself in its smooth sounds. It\u2019s almost tactile, maybe that has to do with Kingsley Ibeneche\u2019s background as a dancer. Take a listen to feel for yourself.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/4Wy25e3DRRsaUhCtSbkAMR?si=5d68e6a0a5694246\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LISTEN NOW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>DANIELLE PONDER | \u201cTHOUGHTS\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>This song almost sounds like it lifts out of synth smokey haze, rising as an even-keeled sultry tune with occasional retro funk vibes peeking through. The Rochester artist made something special here.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/0ueUjUryUeoUpIn5I3oOTz?si=eb1cc97a3739420c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LISTEN NOW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>MEG MAC | \u201cONLY LOVE\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>This one\u2019s a pivot from the last two, highly defined by a clear beat that Meg Mac slides the verses over. Even the artist\u2019s name, Meg Mac, feels like a rhythm. The hooks are strong in this one.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/0bHtqNWZuoWhUv8eaNYvLG?si=79feaa045cc3473b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LISTEN NOW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>RAQUEL KURPERSHOEK | \u201cD\u00c1TILES Y JAZMINES\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The Seville, Spain based artist gives us a track that feels as serene as the city itself, with sparse percussion, a winding river of soft classical guitar, and Raquel Kurpershoek\u2019s voice floating over the sonic landscape. A delightful listen.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/31ovSrjjnLahlvMWL54Kvr?si=075777df497c49de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LISTEN NOW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>JASON BAJADA | \u201cRUN ON ROMANCE\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>This \u201880s pop tinged, woozy number from Jason Bajada feels like sitting out in the sun all afternoon, feeling somewhere between drained and relaxed, almost otherworldly. Maybe some of those mixed emotions come from the lyrics themselves, reflecting on the end of a love affair.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/0WgT6za0EHgIbtxu0V8t6r?si=5be42494931743a2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LISTEN NOW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>GREGNWMN | \u201cSTAY DOWN\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>GREGNWYMN\u2019s here to pep you right back up with this full force of a song, where the LA-based rapper bounces through his verses. The song\u2019s barely over a minute, but the artist packs it well.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/4D4ipMf192e3oS0WCDtcWO?si=56d1c5c9312a4aba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LISTEN NOW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>SCALLER | \u201cCHAOS &amp; ORDER\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The Jakarta, Indonesia based group brings us this delicate alt-rockesque tune, with a myriad of synths blooming under a simple guitar line until about the two-minute mark when the song begins to glide. It\u2019s a dreamy one.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/4qMtOiUBBXw5hoT1ZTEr7D?si=30b324a7d67e48e1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LISTEN NOW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>AYMZ | \u201cICH TANZE ALLEINE\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Let\u2019s wrap on the most upbeat of the group, a hearty electro-pop number from Vienna, Austria based artist, AYMZ. Pulsing bass, hooky verses, sung or whispered, with big bold choruses. It\u2019s only two and a half minutes, but it\u2019s fun from start to finish.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/7rYdtD94gYmpBQpX3G1zo8?si=16cf277152814e70\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LISTEN NOW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Words by Sofar Editorial Team<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome back to our latest New Music Alert.
