For the record: ANGELE (pictured) is by far Belgium’s most successful emerging artist of the last year, and even on a European scale, the impressive performance of all of her album’s tracks is unprecedented.

Knife Club was formed by three experienced musicians of the Brighton music scene. Debut single When My Eyes Are Heavy is a blast of fresh energy, influenced by bands such as IDLES, Interpol and Thee Oh Sees. Those are great references in my book! bit.ly/CBMknifeclub
When a song called Lift Me Up *isn’t* uplifting, something goes terribly wrong.
Well, don’t fear, Danish singer ANYA's new single is as uplifting as can be. It’s an upbeat, soulful track. bit.ly/CBManya
In the past year, Audio Adam, now a trio, recorded their upcoming third album, due to be released in 2019.
First single Emma Watson is about worshiping famous people and an unhealthy attraction to celebrities. bit.ly/CBMaudioadam2
Moscow Apartment are a promising Canadian teen duo, consisting of Brighid Fry (14) and Pascale Padilla (16), with quite a few awards to their names already.
New single Orange a tune that mixes indie folk with triumphant pop. Check it here: bit.ly/CBMmoscowapartment

Hollydays have finally put out their debut album Hollywood Bizarre. I’m particularly fond of the track Minuit (La Baie Noire). A Vive La Fête kind of electronic pop song with great instrumentation and catchy vocals. Frencher than French. bit.ly/CBMhollydays
Recently, Georgia UK has been working on new music. Started Out is her latest single. An upbeat and euphoric track with a throwback feel, caused by electronic claps, squelchy bass lines and dreamy, misty-eyed vocals. bit.ly/CBMgeorgia2
1010 Benja SL created his EP Two Houses entirely by himself. The six tracks are very different, but they all have experimentalism in common.
Ultimaybe is the set’s first single. An exciting track that combines contemporary R&B with ’80s-leaning funk. bit.ly/CBM1010benjasl
