Also, he developed the European Border Breakers Chart, Music Moves Europe Talent Chart and ESNS Chart.
Rat Boy – Victim Of A System
Rat Boy (Jordan Cardy’s alter ego) doesn’t keep his critical views to himself. He has the courage to stick out his neck. In that respect, the title of his new EP Government Vacation is self-explanatory. Musically, his driving cocktail of rap, rock, and grooves adds fuel to the fire.
Victim Of A System is the EP’s new single. On it, Rat Boy enhances the aforementioned formula with infectious horns and a pinch of ska. Another track that screams for the volume to be pumped up.

Wildcard (week 52):
Barry Moore – The Tide
Some tracks that you already liked, still get better and better with each listen. One such example is The Tide by Barry Moore, an Irish singer, songwriter and musician. After spending his youth in San Francisco, he is now back in Europe. However, it’s not Ireland, but France where he starts his musical career. He got signed by Spookland Records; only their second signing after Jain.
Following his great debut single Hey Now (from the EP Lost Boys), The Tide is his new single. Definitely one to check for Twenty One Pilots fans. Expect Barry Moore to fly as high as they do when he puts out his debut album in 2020.
Ahead of that, I’d like to draw some more attention to this great new track. This last week of the year, it’s the Carte Blanche Music Wildcard. Let’s turn The Tide into a tidal wave!

Barry Moore – The Tide
Can one be a fan of an artist who has only two singles out? Apparently, one can. Or at least, I can 😉. I’m talking about Barry Moore, an Irish singer, songwriter and musician. After spending his youth in San Francisco, he is now back in Europe. However, it’s not Ireland, but France where he starts his musical career. He got signed by Spookland Records; only their second signing after Jain.

Dubioza Kolektiv & Manu Chao – Cross The Line
Dubioza Kolektiv are a must-see live act from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Their live performances are characterized by power, energy and high-spirited flamboyance. Meanwhile, they balance heavy melodies and important statements.
Their new single Cross The Line is no exception. Musically, it contains their signature blend of traditional Balkan flavours, ska, punk, reggae, electronics, hip hop and rock. Lyrically, it holds an empowering message of freedom. It’s an ode to the determination, courage, and strength needed to leave one’s homeland and face all challenges of an uncertain future. Not for the first time, Dubioza Kolektiv team up with their friend Manu Chao (of Mano Negra fame).
Cross The Line is the band’s first new single ahead of their ninth studio album #fakenews, out in January 2020.
