Cody Frost Releases New Single ‘DWYSSWM.’ Official Music Video Also Out Today
Cody Frost ignites a big year ahead of her by sharing the explosive new single ‘DWYSSWM’ together with its official video, directed by Emma Gilbertson. ‘DWYSSWM’, which stands for “Don’t Worry Your Secret’s Safe with Me,” finds Cody pushing the three key elements of her sound – hyper pop maximalism, angsty aggression and her exemplary vocal talent – to their absolute limit. Opening with her brightest and most pop-focused sound so far, it suddenly erupts into a visceral electro-punk attack. It’s a song which sees Cody (an Enter Shikari obsessive) and her co-producer/co-writer Dan Weller (co-founder of cult Brit metal experimentalists SiKtH) reconnect with their rock roots. Both ‘DWYSSWM’ and her previous single ‘Berlin’, which Teen Vogue said, “oozes vulnerability,” will feature on her upcoming second EP.

THE BLSSM SHARES “DIZZY” + SIGNS TO FUELED BY RAMEN
“DIZZY” is now streaming on all platforms. “I wrote ‘DIZZY’ about the relationship I have with my inner anxiety,” THE BLSSM explains. “The lyrics on a surface level allude to being about a significant other, but really they are inner-conversational and inspired by the weight of ‘dragging around’ emotional baggage that encompasses my life. The production is an intentional hybrid of all of my different sonic influences, re-imagined into my own rendition of what pop feels and sounds like for me,” they elaborate.

Caroline Romano Premieres “Oddities and Prodigies” Video | Debut Album Out 2/25
An electrifying and anthemic pop punk-inspired track, “Oddities and Prodigies” serves as the thesis statement for Caroline’s debut album of the same name. Directed by Justin Key, the pairing video presents Caroline’s magical and eccentric vision. “I wanted the video to be as theatrical as possible,” she says. “Instead of just walking down the street, I wanted it to feel like you were watching a play or an inner-monologue play out in real time. I guess you could say it’s a representation of the album or the way I write songs as a whole, in that it’s real life, but intensely dramatized.”

New Today: Aladean Kheroufi takes us on a silky sonic voyage on new single “Love!…(is the answer)” a stone cold groove
“Love! … (is the answer)” is a new ballad in line with Aladean’s espoused ideology. Velvet vocals, a playful swing to the drums, and intimate exchanges between guitar and keyboard tease at yearnings which harmonizing backing vocals satisfy with exultation. This isn’t a simple love song sharing romantic feelings for just one person, this is a grand gesture that declares love for everyone. This is therapy, philosophy, and a recipe to get through hard times.
