Today, two-time GRAMMY nominated and platinum selling artist Madison Beer has released a new single, “bittersweet” via Epic Records. It follows her highly infectious dance track, “yes baby.”

Beer says about the song, “bittersweet is about the end of a chapter and the difficulty of coming to terms with it, while also recognizing that deep down you know it’s for the best—and finding peace in that along the journey”

Last month, Beer released her first new song of 2025 - “yes baby”. Released alongside a fierce music video, created and co-directed by Beer and director Aerin Moreno, and received praise from outlets including Billboard, which raved, “Beer understands how to follow through on a fun, flirty electropop banger, as she proves again.”

She is set to perform at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in New York City on Wednesday, October 15th at 7 PM ET on Prime Video and Amazon Live for U.S. audiences and globally on Victoria's Secret's official YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram account.  

Beer is a platinum-selling, two-time GRAMMY-nominated singer, songwriter, producer, and author. She has built an impressive resume with visceral vocals —becoming a dynamic multi-hyphenate.

Her second studio album, Silence Between Songs, earned her first GRAMMY nomination and secured her second consecutive spot on the Billboard 200, following Life Support. She released standout singles including “Sweet Relief” with the music video quickly hitting a million views, while “Spinnin” inspired her third sold out global headlining tour. The Spinnin Tour spanned 60 dates across the U.S., EU, U.K., and Australia, with stops at iconic venues including Radio City Music Hall and The Greek Theatre.

Madison earned her second GRAMMY nomination for “Make You Mine” in the Best Dance Pop Recording category. Since its release in April 2024, the track has topped Billboard’s Dance Airplay chart, marking her first solo #1. She followed with “15 MINUTES,” another chart-topping Dance Radio hit, earning her back-to-back #1s.

Most recently, Madison released “yes baby”, her first new song of 2025, which surpassed over 1 million Spotify streams in its first 24 hours and received early praise from Rolling Stone, Billboard, PAPER, and more.

A true creative force, Madison writes, produces, directs, and designs with uncompromising authenticity. With an audience of over 72 million on social media, she is one of the most influential voices of her generation.

Joony Turns Up The Heat on Slick New Single "PIMPIN'" Featuring Isaiah Falls and Larry June

October 13th, 2025 – Triple-threat rapper, songwriter, and producer Joony joins forces with Larry June and rising R&B star Isaiah Falls for their effortlessly smooth new single, “PIMPIN'”, out now on Red Bull Records/EVGLE/211. Fans can stream the song here and watch the music video here. 

The track is a masterclass in genre-blending: laid-back production, slick lyricism, and soul connect to create a slow-burner that feels tailor-made for late night drives. Led by a buttery hook from Isaiah Falls and strengthened by ultra player verses from Joony and Larry June, “PIMPIN'” sees all three artists delivering peak performances. While the track still taps into familiar hip-hop themes, each voice brings a fresh perspective, making this an instant add for any playlist featuring vibey summer songs or after-hours jams.

Regarding the collaboration, Joony shared, “Since Isaiah's style leans more into R&B, and my music typically has that laid-back, confident vibe, we knew we wanted to create something with a mix of suave, sexy, and cool energy. We both sat down and got to work on it. I let Isaiah do his thing on the hook, and then I came in right after with that same swagger. A few months later, I sent the track to Larry June, and he vibed with it right away. He sent the record back to me almost immediately, and that was that—everything fell into place. The lyrics, while a bit bold, were meant to carry assertiveness with a hint of humor and wit. We wanted it to feel playful yet confident”.

Joony - "PIMPIN'" (feat. Isaiah Falls & Larry June) [Official Music Video]

“PIMPIN'” also marks a key moment in Joony’s evolving rollout. While his first two singles of the year – “Dopa(MINE)” and “NO CHILL” – were solo efforts, this latest drop ushers in a collaborative chapter that hints at the direction of his forthcoming album this year. Behind the scenes, Joony’s momentum has only grown, securing credits alongside the likes of Brent Faiyaz, Blxst, Destin Conrad, and Ty Dolla $ign, including a standout co-write on Ty’s recent single “ALL IN”, and a featured contribution to Destin Conrad’s focus track “FMU!” off the 'LOVE ON DIGITAL' LP.

With “PIMPIN'”, Joony levels up once again, proving that he’s not just teasing fans with new material, he’s setting the tone. Stay tuned for more from Joony this year as his name continues to heat up!

About Joony

Joony, aka Jonathan Negero, is a first-generation Ethiopian-American recording artist, songwriter, and entrepreneur who exemplifies what it is to be a multi-faceted creative with art that emits every emotion. Joony uses his haunting vocal range to share truthful stories about love, fashion, and making it in music without much guidance. Having grown up in Silver Spring, Maryland, about 15 minutes outside Washington, D.C., Joony’s hometown pride is strong. His praised album, '#SHITUMSS', was an ode to the native sound that helped set the foundation for his start as an artist. His debut project on Red Bull Records/Evgle/211, 'MEMENTO', was an excellent taste of the eclectic artist’s thinking. Joony’s free-flowing but calculated nature helped create a bevy of introspective lyrics that accurately illustrated the depths of his mind. 'MEMENTO' also proved that Joony is in a class of his own. He does not color inside the lines and allows himself to take risks musically while pushing the boundaries of rap in a way that the game-changing artists he draws inspiration from have done in the past.

Joony rose to recognition for his impeccable consistency and dynamic contribution to Brent Faiyaz’s record-breaking album, 'WASTELAND'. Since securing his first Billboard Top 100 hit with “FYTB”, the stage has been set for the SoundCloud-era-inspired emcee to further carve a lane for himself within music’s ever-changing landscape. His work with rising creatives like Jordan Ward (“IDC”), KELZ (“One Track Minded”), Highway (“Bad Time”), and more has led him to build up over 550K monthly listeners on Spotify. The “Baby Joon” recording artist has performed at various festivals, toured with Lancey Foux, and even completed an international headlining tour.

Furthermore, Joony has received co-signs from multi-platinum acts and A-list stars like BLXST, Kevin Durant, Shy Glizzy, Babyface Ray, and others. The writing is on the wall for his looming superstardom, and 'MEMENTO' is the only thing left to solidify him as a force within music. Joony’s talents and interests are beautifully conveyed throughout the 10-track EP. The project’s first two tracks, “INTRO(Hotel)” and “NEED IT”, quickly set the tone for the sonic adventure that follows. The opener draws listeners into a movie-like scene featuring audio from a stranger interacting with Joony and his crew before quickly leading into the sobering track, “NEED IT”. The passionate song boasts heartfelt lyrics about Joony’s journey to reach the fame and success he knows he’s destined for. The next track, “CLASSY”, featuring Atlanta’s Tony Shhnow, spotlights his ability to go bar for bar with other lyrical titans while still crafting an infectious hook.

Additional joints like “ACT UP” and “EXPENSIVE CLOTHING” bring 'MEMENTO' a more energetic nature. The upbeat production serves as a perfect example of Joony’s dynamic range. His vocal inflection is comparable to Juice WRLD as his voice pierces through the tantalizing production throughout the EP. Drawing inspiration from Lil Wayne, Joony’s soulful auto-tune-infused verses shine through on tracks like “CHEAP”. The project’s outro, “HIGHEST IN THE ROOM” strongly indicates that Joony is here to stay and has limitless potential. Paving the way for the next generation of scene-shapers, Joony will not stop until he’s met his aspirations for love, success, and the desire to have it all.

As the newest artist from Red Bull Records in partnership with Blxst’s Evgle imprint and his own collective 211, Joony is putting underground rappers from the DMV on the map. Not many artists have the range and ability that Joony has cultivated, with tracks like “Dopa(MINE)” driving his quest to create without bounds. Joony’s dedicated fan base anticipates excellence, and he rises to the occasion.

CAVETOWN ANNOUNCES ‘RUNNING WITH SCISSORS’ 2026 TOUR DATES AND SHARES NEW SINGLE ‘TARMAC’

LISTEN HERE / WATCH THE VISUAL HERE

NEW ALBUM ‘RUNNING WITH SCISSORS’ IS OUT JANUARY 16TH - PRE-ORDER HERE

Download Image here

Photo credit: Jaxon Whittington

Singer, songwriter and producer, Cavetown (Robin Skinner), is set to release his eagerly anticipated new album ‘Running With Scissors’ on January 16th. He shares new single ‘Tarmac’ alongside details of a major international headline tour for 2026. 

‘Tarmac’, co-written with Orla Gartland, follows the rapturously received singles ‘Rainbow Gal’ and  ‘Baby Spoon’, and is indicative of Cavetown’s bold new era. His core indie-pop sound is infused with expansive textures ranging from grunge guitar to sweet swathes of vocal harmonies and unexpected sonics that reflect his love of the unpredictability of hyperpop and the intensity of post-hardcore. Thematically, it extends his raw confessionals into a place in which love is complicated: wanting something to be forever, fearing it’s over, and trying to suppress the negative thoughts that flood his consciousness as a result. 

Cavetown recently joined Pierce The Veil as a special guest on their run of European arena dates. During the London stop at the OVO Arena Wembley, their vocalist Vic Fuentes joined him on stage for a very special performance of ‘a kind thing to do’, their collaboration from Cavetown’s 2022 album ‘worm food’.

The forthcoming album, ‘Running With Scissors’sees Cavetown present a sweeping reflection on growth, identity, and the beauty of coming into one’s own. He uses intimate storytelling to explore themes of love, masculinity, vulnerability, and connection, while also turning toward the heavier realities of anxiety, self-doubt, and navigating life as a trans artist. Threaded throughout is a sense of reimagining adulthood, grappling with family, memory, and the process of self-parenting. If his previous music created a sanctuary, this record dares to ask: what happens when you step outside of that room and look yourself squarely in the eye?

‘Running With Scissors’ is available to pre-order HERE. Limited edition physical formats include a black-and-blue cornetto vinyl packaged with a ‘Baby Spoon’ flexidisc, which is available from his official store, while Rough Trade offer a blue-and-black splatter vinyl.

This new chapter in the Cavetown journey will extend a story which has taken him from roots as a bedroom pop musician in Cambridge to becoming an internationally beloved artist - in the process exceeding 2 billion streams, six RIAA Platinum-certified tracks, and raising over $650,000 for LGBTQ+ organisations via his This Is Home initiative.

Indie Rock Sensations Good Kid Share New Bittersweet Anthem "Wall"

LISTEN HERE

Photo Credit: Evie Maynes

AMASSED OVER 700 MILLION STREAMS ACROSS CATALOGUE

October 13th, 2025 – Philippines – Out now, Toronto indie rockers Good Kid return with their new single “Wall", a bittersweet, high-energy anthem about the unexpected gut-punch of running into the ex that almost became “the one.” Written with their signature mix of hook-driven riffs and clever lyricism, “Wall” captures the awkward armour we put on to appear unbothered, even as the smallest reminder can send us spiralling into what-ifs.
 
“'Wall' is a story about running into your ex —the ex,” the band shares. “It’s about putting up walls, pretending you’re fine, even though a simple encounter at a vintage clothing shop can stir up everything you thought you left behind.”
 
Lyrically raw and musically explosive, “Wall” also marks a new chapter for Good Kid, one that pushes their sound into bolder, grittier territory. Fans will hear the band leaning harder into visceral vocals, chaotic guitar solos, and production choices that feel both unfiltered and unpredictable. “This is the most uninhibited and unfiltered we’ve ever been,” says the band. “We wanted the song to feel alive, even imperfect, because that’s what makes them real.”
 
In keeping with Good Kid’s innovative spirit, the band turned their latest video into a one-of-a-kind fan experience. Through a contest, one lucky fan was animated into the story, forever immortalized in the Good Kid universe. The final cut is a frenetic, late-night labor of love that blurs the line between band and fandom, cementing Good Kid’s reputation as one of the most creative, community-driven acts today.

Speaking on the new video, the band explains, “Working again with animator Xray Alpha Charlie, we wanted ‘Wall’ to feel like an anime opening for our universe, a mix of friendship, music, and everyday life in 'Neo-TO', until everything suddenly unravels.

As a band we grew up obsessed with animated series and anime…the way they could make you believe in impossible worlds and the people fighting to protect them. ‘Wall’ is our way of capturing the joy, the stakes, and the magic of the anime we grew up on.”

Good Kid – "Wall" (Official Video)

The single arrives on the heels of a whirlwind few years that have quietly positioned Good Kid as 'the biggest band you’ve never heard of.' With more than 700 million streams across their catalog, a viral breakout single, “From the Start”, which amassed 1M streams in its first 24 hours and now boasts over 150M streams, and 2.6 million monthly Spotify listeners, Good Kid has built an exponential following, all while staying fully independent.

They had seven infectious tracks featured in a MrBeast video (topping 300M views), which earned them two JUNO nominations (including Breakthrough Group of the Year in 2024), and fuelled sold-out tours across North America, the UK, and Europe.
 
What truly sets Good Kid apart is the community they’ve cultivated. Self-proclaimed 'the world’s most creator-friendly band,' they’ve made their entire discography Content ID-free and DMCA-free, allowing creators across Twitch, YouTube, and beyond to use their music without fear of takedowns. This ethos has turned Good Kid into a cultural fixture of gaming and online creator spaces, with music woven into Riot Games and Epic projects, Valorant tournament broadcasts, and collaborations with influencers across esports, animation, and music.

“As creators ourselves, it felt natural for our music to become super embedded in the content creation space,” says guitarist Jacob Tsafatinos. “We love when creators of any scale use our music—whether it’s a trick-shot video or MrBeast.”
 
Alongside their digital footprint, Good Kid has grown a global fanbase through relentless touring and an ever-expanding online universe of lore, storytelling, and fan collaboration. The band’s Discord server is a thriving community hub where listeners don’t just consume music, they co-create, role-play, and world build with the band. It’s a rare model of how independent music can scale without sacrificing authenticity.

With “Wall”, Good Kid distills all of that energy—emotional honesty, unfiltered sound, and community spirit—into a song that is as cathartic as it is catchy. It’s a track that reminds us how easy it is to stumble back into old memories, and how sometimes the bravest thing you can do is put up a wall and keep moving forward.

Jolianne and Arthur Nery reconnect in “Palayo Sa Mundo”

Following their 2024 collaboration, the pair deliver another heartfelt tune steeped in emotion, chemistry, and grace

Filipino singer-songwriter Jolianne reunites with chart-topping R&B star Arthur Nery on their collaborative single “Palayo Sa Mundo”—released under Sony Music Entertainment. The smooth yet soulful pop track paints a picture of romantic love that is strong enough to make the world wait.

Marking their second collaboration following “Lullaby,” from Arthur Nery’s 2024 album, II: The Second, “Palayo Sa Mundo” finds the two Bisaya artists seamlessly blending their voices in a tender duet that feels both effortlessly captivating and intimate.

“Working with Arthur came so naturally,” Jolianne shares. “For one, we’re both Bisaya, so that was an effortlessconnection. Musically, we also speak the same language. We share a lot of the same influences, and we’re both deeply rooted in R&B.”

Written during a songwriting camp with producer Luke April(James Reid, Playertwo), the song evolved from an English concept titled “The World Can Wait” into an emotionally arresting Tagalog piece that pays homage to classic OPM romance.

“Arthur is a real poet,” the rising newcomer recalls. “And he wrote the song so quickly. It felt like a masterclass watching him in his element.”

Arthur Nery reveals that the song wasn’t intentionally written as a love song at first. “Joli wanted a track about self-reflection or identity crisis,” he shares. “The direction of the song changed after I wrote the first two lines. While Luke let us listen to his guitar sample and production, I wrote and arranged the lyrics freely and we just let the song take us to where it is now. It was a fun experience.”

For what it is, “Palayo Sa Mundo” reflects on the bittersweet nature of love that persists even when fate intervenes.

“This song is about that bittersweet feeling of loving somebody you know loves you too,” Jolianne explains. “But sometimes fate has its own plans, and things don’t turn out as we hope. Still, love in its purest form is worth offering, because love isn’t about guarantees. It’s, I love you because I do, not because I expect it back.”

The track’s stripped-down but warm arrangements highlight the duo’s vocal chemistry while retaining the melodic pop appeal of the material.

Jolianne adds, “We paid homage to ‘Lullaby’ by going the acoustic pop route. We wanted something that felt intimate and timeless. When Arthur and I sing together, it’s never a sing-off; it’s a duet.”

Jolianne and Arthur Nery’s “Palayo Sa Mundo” is out now on all digital music platforms via Sony Music Entertainment.

BELLE DE JOUR AT 20: EVOLVING INTO BIG DREAMS JOURNEY

Where small steps turn dreams into a life fully lived.

Manila, Philippines – For twenty years, the Belle de Jour (BDJ) Power Planner has been more than a productivity tool. It’s been a confidante, a mirror of aspirations, and a map for countless dreamers finding their way.

As the iconic brand celebrates its 20th anniversary, BDJ enters an exciting new chapter, expanding beyond its signature planner and unveiling Big Dreams Journey, a reinvention and evolution of what empowerment looks like today.

Big Dreams Journey empowers people to envision, reflect, and take actionable steps toward their dreams, blending structured tools, immersive experiences, and intentional community to help individuals live their fullest potential.

Held on October 8, 2025, at The Astbury in Makati City, the launch marked this milestone evolution: from a beloved planner brand into a purpose-driven movement that continues to inspire a new generation of dreamers.

“We’re expanding what we’ve always stood for,” says Darlyn Ty-Nilo, founder of BDJ. “For 20 years, the planner has been our foundation. Now, we’re building on that legacy by offering more tools, more experiences, and more ways to help people live their dreams.”

This evolution introduces Big Dreams Journey—aDreampowerment System built on three pillars: tools, workshops, and community. It begins with the Vision Board Kit, Dreampowerment Journals, and of course, the Planner, a trifecta designed to help dreamers move from vision to action and from inspiration to real-life transformation.

From its first planner launch to its annual BDJ Fairs, BDJ has become a cultural touchstone for a generation redefining ambition, self-worth, and what it means to live with intention. Over the years, it has grown to include vision boards, guided journals, affirmation decks, workshops, and Dreampowerment challenges, transforming the act of planning into a joyful, creative practice of designing one’s life.

“Every season of BDJ brought us closer to what we were truly meant to be: not just a planner brand, but a movement,” Ty-Nilo shares. “This 20th year marks an expansion and a reaffirmation of our mission to support dreamers in even more powerful ways.”

The 2026 BDJ 20th Edition serves as both a celebration and a springboard. It honors two decades of stories, milestones, and dreams, while introducing the next evolution of BDJ’s Dreampowerment tools for transformation.

Big Dreams Journey will roll out new Dreampowerment experiences, from goal-setting challenges and community Spark Sessions to journaling and visioning workshops—alldesigned to turn reflection into action and dreams into reality.

“Dreams aren’t meant to be pursued alone,” Ty-Nilo adds. “They flourish in the community. That’s what Big Dreams Journey is all about: creating spaces where each person’s growth fuels another’s courage to dream.”

While the iconic planner steps off center stage to share the spotlight, BDJ’s mission continues stronger, wider, and more intentional than ever.

“If the first 20 years were about empowering people to plan their dreams,” Ty-Nilo concludes, “the next phase is about supporting them in truly living their dreams. Our North Star is no longer just putting out a planner year on year; we’re in the business of supporting dreams and taking action and steps towards them. That’s the legacy we want to carry forward.”

Big Dreams Journey represents BDJ’s evolution from product to purpose, a living empowerment ecosystem of tools, experiences, and connections that help everyone design the life they dream of.

The expressive world-first Mood Light design adds an interactive, playful element that resonates with youthful creativity, while vibrant color options further highlight individuality. With this fusion of slimness, style, and substance, SPARK Slim delivers a premium experience that exceeds expectations within its price segment.

Slim Yet Powerful: Redefining the Balance Between Ultra-Thin Design and Lasting Performance

TECNO SPARK Slim debuts as the world’s thinnest curved-screen smartphone at just 5.93mm. This feat is made possible through TECNO’s breakthrough honeycomb space stacking technology, which optimizes 12% of internal space and enables the slimming of eight core components, from the battery and cooling system to the motherboard, while maintaining overall device slim.

Despite its ultra-thin frame, SPARK Slim incorporates a 5160mAh high-density lithium cobalt oxide battery that delivers up to 24.8 hours Day of Use (DOU). It also supports 45W fast charging, 10W reverse charging, and bypass charging technologies. This unique battery solution resists swelling even after prolonged use, proving that slim does not mean weak in endurance.

To ensure sustained performance during heavy usage, SPARK Slim integrates a 0.3mm ultra-thin vapor chamber and a high-conductivity graphite layer with thermal performance of 1800W/m·K, together forming a 24,532mm² cooling system. This enables stable charging and gaming performance while keeping the device cool in such an exceptionally slim body.

Building on this strong foundation of power and thermal stability, SPARK Slim is equipped with the new MediaTek Helio G200 chipset. Designed to balance efficiency with performance, it ensures smooth everyday use and comes with TÜV-certified fluency for up to five years, giving users long-term stability and confidence in their device.

Slim Yet Durable: Reliability backed by Military-Grade Standards

While achieving extreme slimness, TECNO SPARK Slim does not compromise on durability. Its 0.36mm aerospace-grade fiberglass back cover is 0.19mm thinner than conventional materials yet improves strength by 300% and flexibility by 200%.

The screen is protected by Corning® Gorilla® Glass 7i, while the entire device is IP64 rated against dust and water, ensuring peace of mind for everyday use.

Slim Yet Stylish: Lighting Up Individual Expression

TECNO SPARK Slim comes in two timeless colorways: Slim White and Cool Black, bringing classic elegance into modern fashion trends. Weighing around 156g and featuring an ultra-narrow frame with graceful curves, the device offers a superb slim grip that feels refined and comfortable in hand.

In addition to its ultra-slim aesthetics, SPARK Slim introduces an interactive Mood Light design on the back, featuring two circular “eyes” that mimic emotions through multi-scene lighting effects. In scenarios such as power on/off, charging, incoming calls, Ella activation, and notifications, the eyes display playful light animations—expressing moods like happy, not happy, or blinking. For Gen Z users, this transforms functional notifications into a unique form of fashionable self-expression, turning the device into both a stylish daily companion and a tool to showcase individuality.

Beyond playful interaction, SPARK Slim also delivers an exceptional viewing experience. Its 1.5K high-resolution curved display offers immersive clarity, reaching 4500 nits peak brightness and supporting a 144Hz refresh rate for ultra-smooth responsiveness, ensuring vivid visuals even in bright outdoor conditions.

Elevated Experiences with TECNO AI and Beyond

SPARK Slim integrates TECNO AI, providing real-time translation, document summarization, and AI photo repair, empowering young users in learning, work, and creative output. With the addition of Touch Transfer, users can instantly share images, videos, or files between two TECNO devices with just a tap via NFC, providing seamless connectivity. Further enhancing the experience, the device features Dolby dual stereo speakers and dual system support, delivering enriched entertainment and productivity.

The device also features TECNO’s best-in-class “FreeLink” technology, enabling direct Bluetooth-based messaging and two-way calls even without cellular coverage, which is an essential feature in remote or offline environments.

Rising Indie Artist Chris LaRocca Welcomes Explorative EP 'dog years'

Photo Credit: Ted Belton

October 6th, 2025 – Rising artist, producer, and awarded songwriter Chris LaRocca has released his EP 'dog years'  on Red Bull Records/Wonderchild. Fans can stream the album here. 

The first new single off the EP is the funk-infused “preaching to the choir” – an anthem for overthinkers in love. Punctuated by a thumping indie-folk production, “preaching to the choir” gets real about all the irrational questions you wish you could ask your partner over and over again.

On the single, LaRocca shares: “It’s said that being in a relationship is like looking into a mirror, and that is the concept behind ‘preaching to the choir’. it’s an ode to anxiety and what it must feel like to be intimately close with someone like myself. The lyrics present themselves as a rambling train of thought, highlighting all the quirks in my character that I felt my partner at the time was noticing in me. I wrote this song at a turning point in my life and a moment of self-discovery, and for better or for worse, I truly feel that this song memorializes a past version of myself at a very poignant time in my life”.

Chris LaRocca – "preaching to the choir" (Visualizer)

Chris LaRocca’s deep admiration for 70s era folk and Americana music may come as a surprise when looking at his career as an awarded songwriter and producer. Working with artists like Bryson Tiller, Kali Uchis, and Russ – the world of Americana music feels very far away. Although it lives in a new lane from his previous projects, there is a certainty to the way each song came together. It feels spontaneous but also planned, as if LaRocca had always known he was going to create something like this but hadn’t found the right time or reason. ‘dog years’ is Chris LaRocca’s homage to the sounds of such an iconic era in music history, while still being undeniably his own – affectionately referring to his journey through the genres as “Canadiana” music.

This has been a busy year for Chris LaRocca, releasing five singles leading up to the EP’s release. Starting the year off with “ladybug” and “laundry day”, followed shortly by “slow dance in the diner”, “normal guy”, and “last pair of boots in town”. 

The second new track from ‘dog years’ is the aptly titled “fed up!!”. Listeners hear a more echoed vocal from LaRocca as he lets his guitar lead. It feels regretful and a little bitter, but not truly angry. The title track, “dog years” rounds out the collection of new music arriving with the EP. The song reveals more clearly the message behind the project – time can feel like it’s passing exponentially quickly and painfully slowly at the same time. Growth is not linear, and neither is healing, but there is an assuredness to LaRocca in this track – as if the “dog year” that inspired the EP was not his first.

On the process of creating the EP, LaRocca shares: “I started working on this project on January 1st, 2024, and finished it in November of that year. There was a lot of creative discovery within the boundaries of this project, from collaborators, to sounds, to songwriting style - all reaching new territories that I’ve been wanting to explore for quite some time. It chronicled a calendar year of love and heartbreak, wins and losses, growth and pain in real time - anytime something meaningful happened within that timeframe, I put it into a song”.

As he reflects on the final moments polishing the project, LaRocca continues: “By the end of it all I realized how much can really happen in a year, and how much you can change in that time - especially the older you get, the days go slow and the years go fast. Sometimes, even moreso in a life of creativity, it can really feel like you are living dog years at a time - experiencing the growth of several years in one. I felt as if I were living out this sentiment in my own life, and when listening back to ‘dog years’ start to finish, it felt as if the project named itself”.

This project was built upon a shared appreciation for music that moves people. Chris LaRocca worked with incredible musicians and producers to create ‘dog years’, from Canadian producer Daniel Lanois (Bob Dylan, Neil Young) and Alex “Ace G” Erenwein (Drake, Jack Harlow, Daniel Caesar) to "Dirty" Dave Marcus (Blxst, Rico Nasty, Offset) and Herag Sanbalian (Alessia Cara, Nelly Furtado), and more.

From the year that felt like seven, Chris LaRocca has put together a 360-degree exploration of a brand-new sound. ‘dog years’ showcases his personal relationship with the songwriting styles made famous by Americana and folk musicians, and the layered sonic landscapes from these genres that have always inspired him to dig deeper.

‘dog years’ is pensive, patient; it feels like pain but also like healing. With each single, Chris LaRocca leans into the best and the worst moments with the same attention to detail. The personal growth from this formative “dog year” shines so clearly in this project, as LaRocca continues to evolve.

About Chris LaRocca
 

In a previous life, Chris LaRocca was a fixture in Toronto’s DIY scene, playing sweaty basements around North America with his post-hardcore band. As that chapter of his sound slowly faded into the rearview, LaRocca transitioned from the stage to the studio, establishing himself as a dynamic producer and sought-after collaborator for top-shelf names like Kali Uchis, Bryson Tiller, Russ, and Stray Kids.

He soon caught the attention of GRAMMY-nominated, JUNO Award-winning producer, WondaGurl, joining her Wonderchild roster in partnership with Red Bull Records. His first full-length, 'i cried my eyes out', featured the song “linger”, which he brought to the screen in a heart-wrenchingly beautiful short film that won a Cannes Lion, among other accolades. 

While he’d come a long way from his DIY days, there was a part of LaRocca yearning for the music that reflected his authentic identity. Cue his new EP, 'dog years'. In the year it took to create, LaRocca felt like he had lived through seven years' worth of challenges and personal growth. Going into 2024, he relocated from Toronto to the Canadian wilderness to follow the Americana, rootsy sounds that were calling to him.

Working with Daniel Lanois (Neil Young, Bob Dylan), Matt DeLong and Ben Cook (No Warning), Jahson Paynter, and Dave Marcus (21 Savage, Rico Nasty), LaRocca felt confident to not only traverse new genres, but to dive deep into his personal life. 'dog years' is both a time-lapse that sees his relationships bloom and a love letter to himself.
 

Chris is steadily gaining fans across Southeast Asia, with 🇵🇭the Philippines at #4 among his top 10 streaming countries worldwide.

Built around warm acoustic guitar riffs, a soaring, hook-heavy melody, and intimate, emotionally honest lyrics, the song showcases elijah's gift for storytelling that feels both familiar and deeply personal.

""I Miss You" is about holding on to hope when love feels uncertain—that late-night belief that if we just keep trying, we can find our way back. It's emotional, but ultimately about faith in connection."

With major stops in Manila, Singapore, Bangkok, and more, the tour firmly established elijah as one of the most electrifying and fast-rising pop voices in the region.

In 2024, his rising prominence in Asia reached new heights—selling out his first Asia tour in May, opening for Niall Horan in Jakarta, and taking the stage at the Seoul Jazz Festival alongside Lauv, Jeremy Zucker, and JP Saxe. Today, Asia dominates his global streaming audience, with top markets including: #2 Indonesia, #3 Philippines, #5 Taiwan, #6 India, #8 Malaysia, #9 Thailand, and #11 Singapore.

Beyond the stage, elijah's charisma and personal style are making waves in fashion. He recently graced the cover of Esquire Singapore and was featured in The Greatest Magazine, VMAN SEA, and NYLON Manila—with more coverage on the way.

Barbie Almalbis takes over Shibuya Crossing in “All U Wanna Do” music video

The award-winning singer-songwriter braves rain, rush hour, and onlookers in a spontaneous Tokyo shoot directed by Niña Sandejas

Photo by Nina Sandejas

Manila, Philippines – Acclaimed singer-songwriter Barbie Almalbis has released the music video for her latest single, “All U Wanna Do.”

The striking visual piece was shot guerilla-style at the iconic Shibuya Crossing, capturing Almalbis’ impassioned performance amid a bustling city life in Tokyo, Japan.

Singing with only her earphones as accompaniment, Almalbisstands in stark contrast to the rush of strangers around her, transforming a fleeting moment into a deeply personal expression of frustration, resilience, and artistry.

Directed and conceptualized by celebrated photographer and filmmaker Niña Sandejas, the project emerged from an impromptu creative adventure during Almalbis’ travels in Japan, where she’s invited to perform.

“It wasn’t an original idea—every day, tourists record themselves in that famous scramble—but this shoot was something else entirely,” Sandejas explains. “Barbie sang full voice with only her earphones as a backing track, while strangers brushed past, stared, or bumped into her. The rain gave us only a brief pause to work, and we had a hard stop because she was headed straight to a gig that night. A few takes, a lot of faith, and a camera chasing her through the rush: that was all we had. Behind the lens, what struck me most wasn’t the crowd or the noise, but Barbie’s composure. Her dedication to bring to life each of her songs, giving the same devotion to a pop-up shoot on a rainy Tokyo street as she would to a stage.”

Joining Sandejas and Almalbis on the road was a tight-knit team: Rachael Roldan, who handled hair and makeup and assisted in lighting, and Martin Honasan, Barbie’s husband, who helped with crowd management. Ysmael Salvador, editor of the video, took Niña’s chaotic handheld footage and tied it into a cohesive and magnetic narrative. Salvador has previously worked with Almalbis on the visuals of her songs “Platonic” and “Needy.”

“As a nod to Barbie’s history, we layered in an echo from Hungry Young Poets’ song ‘Runaway’ where the sound of traffic and voices in Japanese that once opened the track,” Nina adds. “It felt right to bring that spirit full circle, folding memory into the present.”

Reflecting on the collaboration, Almalbis praised Sandejas instinctive artistry: “Niña really is a natural, and I love seeing how she almost simply reacts to her surroundings instinctively. I think she has spent a long time mastering that art.”

“Imagine you’re my therapist and we’re at our first session, then I sit down and word vomit all my insecurities at you. That’s what I want mood swings to feel like. Before we get into the detail of the album, I wanted to lay the groundwork for who I am first.”

Morissette marks 15 years with Ember: A Night of Legacy and New Beginnings

​Photo by Betzaida Ventura

Manila, Philippines — When the lights go down at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on October 28, 2025, the crowd will rise to its feet to welcome back one of the most powerful voices of her generation. Morissette, Asia’s Phoenix, celebrates 15 years in music with Ember, a concert designed not only to showcase her vocal brilliance but to reflect on a journey that has inspired millions.

This year has already been monumental for her. She starred in her first feature film, Song of the Fireflies, where she showcased her dramatic range alongside her signature vocals. Her rendition of “Golden,” featured in the Netflix hit Kpop Demon Hunters, went viral and captured headlines, reaffirming her ability to leave a mark on both local and global audiences. Beyond the screen and streaming platforms, she has continued to bring Filipino artistry to international stages, building a legacy that now comes full circle on the Araneta stage.

Ember will be her first major solo concert at Araneta since 2018, and it carries the promise of an unforgettable night. With Troy Laureta directing the music, the performance is set to combine powerful arrangements with deeply personal storytelling. Morissette has hinted at a setlist that spans her 15-year career—songs that, for the first time, will come together in one breathtaking show. Some may never be performed again in a major concert, making Ember a rare chance to experience her story in its fullest form. Fans can also expect surprises, with the possibility of special guests joining Morissette on stage to mark the milestone.

Adding to the excitement, indie-folk favorites The Ridleys will open the night, known for their heartfelt storytelling and devoted following. Their presence creates a rare moment where two generations of Filipino musicians share one stage in celebration of artistry and legacy.

Tickets, priced from ₱999 to ₱9,499, have been in high demand since their release on Ticketnet. A newly opened Patron A section now brings more fans closer to the stage, while VIP and SVIP tiers offer exclusive experiencesincluding soundcheck access and signed memorabilia.

For Morissette, Ember is more than a concert—it’s a celebration, and a promise that her flame will continue to burn for years to come.

Leading the way is Philippine Airlines as the major sponsor, with Nyxys powering the event. Other valued partners include El Calle Food and Music Hall, Southwestern Flaming Grill, Maruca Bistro Italia, Ming’s Pei Pa Koa, and Guevarra’s, with more sponsors to be announced in the coming weeks.

Tickets to Over October’s anniversary concert runs out in two hours

The chart-topping indie band announces to add 500 more passes for fans

Alternative pop band Over October is making waves once again as they celebrate their eleventh anniversary with a free major concert at the MOA Amphitheater on October 12, 2025, from 5:00 p.m. onwards.

The upcoming event generated overwhelming demand, with more than 3,000 passes claimed within just two hours of registration.

In response, the band announced today that they are adding another 500 passes exclusively through the SM Malls Onlineapp at 6:00 pm, giving more fans the opportunity to join what is set to be one of their most ambitious projects to date.

“This all feels like a dream,” Over October said in a press statement. “The goal has always been to headline big shows, but seeing it come to life is surreal. Last year, we had our first major concert, which was sold out for 2 days. This year, we wanted to treat our fans to a free concert. We allotted 3000 passes that fans could claim, and to our surprise, all the slots were redeemed within the first 2 hours after announcing the show.”

The anniversary concert is dedicated to “Octobears,” whom the Ikot act considers family. Beyond the long set and main performance, the band is curating a pre-concert showcase featuring Octobears busking and sharing their art, further championing their mission to build community through music.

“We want to inspire them to keep dreaming,” the band adds. “It took us 11 years to get to where we are now, and it’s not just because of our efforts. It’s also with the help of all the people who supported us. We want them to feel that this success is also theirs, as we’re celebrating our community of Octobears.”

Fans can expect a heightened concert experience filled with upgraded visuals and lighting direction, newly improved setlists, and surprise guest performances. The special show also doubles as a post-release celebration for their new single “Dahan,” which dropped on 26 across major streaming platforms. Produced by Shadiel Chan, the song captures Over October’s signature sound while introducing a more playful and melodically intense arrangement. Its accompanying lyrical visualizer features a special cameo by acclaimed actor Donny Pangilinan.

“Honestly, Dahan also kind of captures our whole journey in the music industry—a 10-year slow-burn relationship,” the chart-topping indie quintet reflects. “Being active in the music industry for 11 years is such a blessing to us; not a lot of independent artists are given this opportunity to be able to make music for a living for more than a decade. This new single, and this new concert, are both reminders of why we do what we do.”

Over October’s Anniversary Concert is presented by Over October and GNN.

Fans may redeem the additional 500 passes by searching “OVER OCTOBER” on the SM Malls Online app starting at 6:00 PM today.

Nateman, Baby Blood, and Yung Bawal - “PUSO AT ISIP”

The music video drops on October 1, 2025 at 10:00 pm, PH time

Filipino rappers Nateman and Baby Blood team up with acclaimed producer Yung Bawal on “PUSO AT ISIP,” a vibey, minimalist jam that explores the beautiful chaos of love caught between passion and reason.

Built on Yung Bawal’s lush yet groovy production, the track sets a magnetic backdrop for Nateman and Baby Blood’s sharp lyricism, weaving a story of desire tempered by hesitation.

The song dares to ask a timeless question: do we follow the quiet pull of peace or dive headlong into the risks of adventurous love? With sultry melodies, clever and playful verses, and Caribbean-inspired rhythms, “PUSO AT ISIP” is designed to keep listeners vibing long after the first play.

“This song really came out of nowhere, from pure feeling and soul,” Nateman shares in a press statement.

His brother and collaborator Baby Blood also echoes this authenticity, channeling raw emotion into verses that resonate with both intimacy and wit.

“We’re proud of the outcome,” Baby Blood adds. “The chemistry is undeniable, but each one of us brought a different level of craftmanship and energy that made everything coherent without necessarily taking away our individuality.”

Yung Bawal, who was responsible for helming the beat, revealed that the collaboration was born organically. “I first worked with Nateman on a remix earlier this year and loved the energy. He brought Baby Blood into the session, who I only later found out was his younger brother. The track just flowed from there.”

As for his production style for this particular bop, Yung Bawal ensures that he did his homework and talked to the artists about what vibe they feel like making or inspiration they are keen to capture in a creative partnership. “I never have a library of beats for artists, as all my beats are made specifically for who I'm working with; hence, all of my releases sound different from each other depending on whom I'm working with.”

The release of “PUSO AT ISIP” will be accompanied by a music video that felt cinematic in scope. As Yung Bawal describes it, the director made telenovela-like material, complete with a riveting plot. Nateman even joked around about how it made them feel like lead stars of their own drama shows. “Ang guwapo-guwapo namin dun (we look good),” he laughs. The MV also stars Filipina social media personality Christine Samson.

“PUSO AT ISIP” is out now on all digital music platforms worldwide via Sony Music Entertainment. Watch the music video release via Nateman’s official YouTube page.

“"Blink" is a groovy, high-energy duet about savoring the magic of the moment when you lay eyes on someone that takes over your whole world. It’s like ‘love at first sight,’ but a little more playful,” Besson shares. “TZUYU (TWICE) was amazing to work with and shooting a music video on the streets of Seoul was a first for both of us – the whole experience felt really fresh and exciting. I can’t wait to see how our fans react to the video”.

This collaboration is a landmark moment for both artists, who first rose to international fame as members of world-renowned groups and are now stepping into their solo eras.  Besson, best known as one-fifth of the multi-billion streaming and arena headlining boy  band Why Don’t We, joins forces with TZUYU (TWICE), whose role in TWICE helped catapult the group into one of K-Pop’s most iconic and best-selling girl groups, consistently breaking records on the Billboard charts.

Next year, Besson is set to release his debut solo EP via BMG. Over the past year, Besson stepped outside his comfort zone and into an immersive creative journey that led to a sonically daring body of work. Blending his sublimely smooth vocals with a feel-good form of R&B-pop, his debut EP is both warmly nostalgic and irresistibly forward-thinking. With a bold new sound, high-profile collaborators, and an authentic creative voice, Besson’s eagerly awaited solo chapter is underway.

Earlier this summer, Besson released “Tied Up” and “Summer”, The infectious “Tied Up” came to life with a group of heavy-hitting producers, including multi-GRAMMY winner Hit- Boy (Kendrick Lamar’s “Backseat Freestyle”), two-time GRAMMY nominee Tenroc (Jon Batiste, The Kid LAROI), and Latin GRAMMY winner Trevor Muzzy (Jennifer Lopez, Nicki Minaj), while the sunsoaked, addictive anthem “Summer” features R&B icon Jeremih. 

Besson also recently collaborated with acclaimed electronic dance-pop duo, Two Friends, on their new track “No One Else”. The track blends euphoric production with heartfelt vocals, delivering a soaring, feel-good anthem that hits both the heart and the dance floor.
