Guillaume's choice
Troye Sivan – Bloom
After two first singles from his next album, including the hit track My My My!, Troye Sivan returns to surprise us with an energetic single. "It's all about flowers" he warned us in teasing, and indeed, this lyric video does not leave us indifferent with very beautiful visual effects. If we recognize the style of the Australian artist, we are all the more excited to be able to listen to his album! (See here)

Basile Di Manski – Cha$ing you
As a prelude to the release of a new EP entitled Personal Point Break, which will be released on June 8, Basile Di Manski releases Cha$ing you, produced by Paul Prie and Bastien Doremus who collaborate with Christine & The Queens, Charlotte Gainsbourg or Flavien Berger. While he mocks the codes of rap (" girls and money ") in an enveloping retro atmosphere, a hand does fingerboard tricks on a naked body. (See here)
Melanie Faye feat. Mac DeMarco – Eternally 12
Melanie Faye is an admirable guitarist from Nashville who has yet to release an EP under her name. She teamed up with a new fan (in addition to Willow Smith, SZA, Beyonce's lead guitarist, Bibi McGill), in the person of the whimsical Mac DeMarco, for an instrumental, tender and gentle.
Canek's choice
Julia Michaels – Jump ft. Trippie Redd
Julia Michaels is back with Jump, after her hit Issues. The star behind Justin Bieber's Sorry and soon Christina Aguilera's new album Liberation, is more romantic than ever " All I Do is jump right into your arms ". In the same fragile line of Issues, Jump is another pearl of pop. To make the wait for her first studio album less difficult, Julia Michaels will be present in Shawn Mendes' third studio album with the song Like To Be You which already promises to be sublime. Julia Michaels is definitely the artist to follow in 2018! (See here)
Noucky's picks
I N V I G O – Blueness
Intense title, Invigo offers us a sublime piece with Blueness, first extract of an EP to be released next September. The clip that accompanies it is not to be outdone: it tells several stories of encounters. Love at first sight, smile exchanged, misunderstanding… Full of different situations scrutinized, whose evolution and passion becomes crescendo like music. Very beautiful!(See here)
Tamino – Habibi
A deep voice and a timbre to make souls tremble. A melancholic song, a little crooner, which reminds especially Jeff Buckley … We also feel a little Tom Waits side, a touch of oriental music…A lament that goes so well to this dark brown. Tamino is a Belgian of Egyptian origin who literally melted us. Very big crush for this new singer completely captivating who will not leave you indifferent. His first EP, and we warmly recommend listening to it, flows like honey in the ears. To see at the Maroquinerie on June 4th !(See here)
AURORA – Queendom
A new clip for our princess of the north: Queendom ! A title that sounds very feminist for Aurora. The Norwegian singer describes her "reinaume" (as opposed to the kingdom), where everyone can exist and be fully as they are. A beautiful invitation, a beautiful message of love, tolerance, respect… All in outfits always so crazy with a melody full of hope and light. A real ray of sunshine and we enjoy starting the week with so much heat!(See here)
Emma's choice
Christina Aguilera – Accelerate ft. Ty Dolla $ign, 2 Chainz
Christina Aguilera is back and she makes it known with the release of Accelerate, single from her new album Liberation.More than a new track, Accelerate seems to want to prove a musical renewal supported by ambitious collaborations… To wait until June 15 and learn more, we redirect you to our article dedicated to the single!

Jessie Reyez – Body Count
May 3rd marked the return of Jessie Reyez and her voice, for our greatest pleasure, under the name Body Count. No need for artifice, it is with the help of a beat and a guitar that we fell once again under his spell. A hymn to freedom and lightness of mind is simple and insolent. We hope to hear more in a short time, we look forward to finding the rough diamond of the Canadian scene.Be continued… (See here)
SiR – D'Evils
SiR releases this week the clip of D'Evils, from the second album of the Californian singer: November, released last January. SiR's soul identity is accompanied by soaring lyrics and reggae sounds, all against the backdrop of a clip with dreamy images, directed by the young Karena Evans to whom we owe the video for God's Plan by Drake. The song is already on our summer playlist!(See here)
