MT JONES - I DON'T UNDERSTAND

 I do understand and i also know that there is plenty of good music out there but it's difficult to reach our ears unless you search music like i do.For instance "I Don't Understand" by MT Jones is a song that  blends the warmth of 60s and 70s soul with a contemporary garnish and a jazzy undercurrent.The song is taken from MT Jones upcoming album "Joy" out in March proving that there are still artists out there who made music like they used to.An MT Jones gem and a feel good Brit soul at its best.

MYLES SMITH & NIALL HORAN - DRIVE SAFE

 Have a great week soundfisters....

The first collaboration between Myles Smith and ex One Direction member Niall Horan was released this week marking the first Smith single for 2026."Drive Safe" is built around the idea that life will inevitably throw curveballs and present obstacles, but those moments are manageable when you have the right people around you.The message seems to be working so far since the downloads in the Uk are pretty good and all it needs is the streaming factor to enter the top 10.This summer, Myles Smith will join Ed Sheeran as the main support for his US tour and "Drive Safe" will be on the playlist for sure and maybe be dueting with Sheeran too.Folk-pop-rock is currently trending but not really my thing...

MORRISSEY - NOTRE-DAME

 Morrissey over the years he transormed himself from the iconic The Smiths singer to a controversial personality that often provokes the common sense.And that's what he does on his new single "Notre-Dame".The mid-paced indie-rock track, dominated by a wobbling synth line, was inspired by the tragic fire of the historical Parisian cathedral on April 15, 2019 and in it he notably omits a controversial lyric relating to terrorism that he sang live.That part in which he sings: "Before investigations/They said, ‘It’s not terrorism" once again caused criticism makes the second single to be taken from Morrissey’s forthcoming album "Make-Up Is A Lie" quite noticable this week.The album drops on March 6 and this song is actually quite good.

ALESSO & PENDULUM - FADE (EXTENDED MIX)

 Alesso opens 2026 by leaning into what he does best with stadium-scale Pendulum collab, "Fade". Anchored by Rob Swire’s (Pendulum) commanding vocal performance, the track slowly develops with cinematic tension before crashing into one of Alesso’s signature, airy drops.It’s an electro-ballad at heart and its balance of vulnerability and intensity seamlessly blurs the lines between rock-driven excitement and electronic euphoria."Fade" serves as a reminder of why Alesso’s melodic instincts have endured for over a decade and why this is one of the most interesting dance new releases this week.

RICK ASTLEY - WAITING ON YOU

 Rick Astley decided to release his brand new single on the day of his 60th birthday so first of all best wishes to one of our 80s heros.Growing up Astley's music becomes more mature and more suitable to a pop star from the past."Waiting On You" underlines Rick’s ability to evoke timeless 60s soul influences and infuse them with a contemporary touch that is completely in tune with the present day. Emotive strings and Rick’s inimitable baritone provide the perfect sonic touchpoints for a song which not only looks back to the first flush of love, but also celebrates how it endures deep into a life together.This one sounds a lot like a Jack Savoretti release and i love it.Don't miss it...

SOMBR - HOMEWRECKER

 It's very difficult many times to make a true estimate on a single unless you let time to work on it. So at first i m not too enthusiastic nor disappointed on the new Sombr single.What i felt with "Undressed" from the very first moment didn't happen here.That doesn't change the fact that i think he is very talented and "Homewrecker" might prove me wrong (well sort of).This is his first new song and music video of the year and it explores the messiness of love, especially when you love someone who isn’t yours.His European tour is already sold out while once again, SOMBR is the sole writer and co-producer of his latest song, underscoring the weight of this talent. In addition to his Best New Artist GRAMMY nomination, he’s currently up for two prestigious BRIT Awards: International Artist of the Year, and International Song of the Year for "Undressed".

CALVIN HARRIS & KASABIAN - RELEASE THE PRESSURE

 At first look it's another bizzare collaboration but in dance music anything can happen even Calvin Harris inviting the Kasabian for his new single.The Scotish dj and producer has the access to bring on abyone providing the vocals for a new single and this join single is likely more a surprise for the Kasabian.Dancing is one way to "Release The Pressure" and after hearing the song it will probably work.I won't call it a banger yet but sounds like it can very well be.Calvin Harris needs his first hit in 2026 and this is a good choice for finding it.

MEEK - FABULOUS

 In the recent past Lola Young made a huge hit with something equal brilliant as this "Fabulous" release by Meek.This girl a crossover to Chapell Roan and Lola Young releases her debut single and makes an instant impact with "Fabulous" with references themes of heartbreak, self-presentation and recovery, drawing on British humour and queer nightlife.Meek is described as a self-made artist whose work is informed by working-class experience and personal trauma. She says her music is intended to resonate with outsiders and marginalised audiences, including LGBTQ+ listeners.If my modjo is right expect this one to make a huge bang sooner than you think.

JERRY'S SOUND ROOM - BENEATH MY SKIN

 Once again Tik Tok is creating another hit that normally wouldn't see the light of the charts not because it's not good but because this genre is long lost from the catalogue of popular hits.In a way even so trending sounds like this one is bringing audience closer to good music with instruments like it used to be before.Jerry's Sound Room is a popular musical project specializing in 1950s-style soul, blues, and bolero, characterized by a husky, emotional, and vintage vocal style. With over 2 million monthly listeners on Spotify and 100K+ YouTube subscribers, the artist produces music focused on intimate, late-night, and romantic vibes."Beneath My Skin" sounds a lot like "Unchained Melody" by The Righteous Brothers, characterized by raw, emotional vocals and a nostalgic, moody atmosphere reminiscent of a "smoky midnight bar".I m glad that a "blues" song gets popular even if it's through social media...

BILLY REEKIE - WHEN YOU WERE MINE

 Have a great week soundfisters....

The Grammys were given last night with Kendrick Lamar, Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga among the big winners of the night.It's funny how the music industry treat music today but that's just how things work these days.The "Aperture" declimax came sooner that i thought but it was expected for such a not a good choice.The other thing that's interesting is that more and more music from the past is getting once more an attention like Zara Larsson's "Lush Life" even "Boys Don't Cry" by The Cure.

On the other hand there is quite a lot of new music out there by new artists that are ready to hatch but all it takes is the right condition.For instance Billy Reekie, a singer-songwriter from Scotland, has been sharing his musical talents since the young age of 9.His latest single "When You Were Mine" has this 60s aroma all over it that reminds Stephen Sanchez's "Until I Found You" in a lot of ways that makes it attractive to my ears.What about yours?

BNYX, KID CUDDI & ROYKSOPP - EVERYWHERE I GO (REMIND ME)

 Blending genres is always an interesting work especially when electronic music meets rap.BNYX (pronounced Benny X), uses Royksopp's "Remind Me" and linking with Kid Cudi the outcome has the title "Everywhere I Go".Remember BNYX name cause he is a increasingly in-demand producer and with this release he proves that he is close to a breakout at some point in 2026.This dark alt-pop electronic release wrapped in synth-soaked soul, driven by humming keys, rubbery low end, crisp percussion and ghostly choral vocals that give the song a widescreen emotional pull is one of the most interesting new releases this week that it will be kept out of sight unless you follow blogs like this one.
