. @pixeyofficial writes and produces her own songs, plays the drums, bass and guitar, and sings.

With it’s lush guitars and breakbeat-like drums, her new single Just Move has a distinct Madchester sound. It's this week's Carte Blanche Music Wildcard! https://bit.ly/CBMpixey

. @thedjangos’ new single Spirals is an up-tempo song right from the start, made for the radio. For *adventurous* radio stations at least.

The tune kicks off with driving drums, a walking bassline and elegantly circling synths. Read more and listen here: https://bit.ly/CBMdjangodjango

13 November, @statstatstats release their sophomore album Powys 1999.

Naturalise Me is the long-player’s first single. It’s a funky, danceable pop song with an industrial, @depechemode-like feel to it. https://bit.ly/CBMstats3

. @MissMachine_pop's debut single Tout Autour (off her upcoming 1st EP) is a beautiful song, combining ‘90s rock nostalgia, electronic pop sounds, and French chanson.

Highly personal music, with lyrics that are both expressive and impressionistic. J'aime! https://bit.ly/CBMmissmachine

. @abbyjhall is a Canadian singer-songwriter. She started writing music when she was 11, and plays the guitar, keys and ukulele.

Abby describes her new single All I Wanted as ‘an emotional plea to go deep and be vulnerable with someone you care about’. https://bit.ly/CBMabbyjhall

. #Eelke's upcoming EP Mirror is a great leap forward. First single Leech is a good example of the way he combines indie-rock with vulnerability.

Particularly fans of @radiohead circa the mid-‘90s will be delighted. https://bit.ly/CBMeelke

Madness by @itsheddamae is an upbeat and fun pop song with a nu-disco flavour in the best @JamiroquaiHQ tradition.

Full of ‘80s influences, it’s a slick and smart tune, extremely catchy and sure to make you feel good. https://bit.ly/CBMheddamae
