You know the drill. Time for another roundup of recent releases from your current and potentially new faves both locally and abroad. There’s nothing like the sound of new music, some of which we listed down below for your convenience.
FEELSLIKEIMFALLINGINLOVE – COLDPLAY
Quintessential Coldplay for their new era, and we aren’t mad at it.
SUPERNATURAL – NEWJEANS
For their first Japanese release, the girls give 90s chill pop excellence.
US – GRACIE ABRAMS AND TAYLOR SWIFT
How Gracie managed to secure this Taylor feature, we don’t know, but we’re thankful she did.
THE BOY IS MINE REMIX – ARIANA GRANDE, BRANDY, AND MONICA
When three mothers hop on the same track, you have no choice but to stan.
MEDYO AKO – JUAN KARLOS AND MOIRA DELA TORRE
Aside from the fact that these two sound so good together, the song also speaks to the curiosity of thinking whether your ex moved on with someone who shares some similarities with you.
THIS GIRL, SO CONFUSING VERSION WITH LORDE – CHARLI XCX AND LORDE
Lorde killed her verse in this song about female rivalries in music. But someone give her a hug as well.
SANDALI – MRLD
Kinda living for this R&B/synth beat in one of mrld’s most experimental tracks yet.
BOOM BOOM BASS – RIIZE
RIIZE definitely has the funk and the boom boom bass.
SEGURISTA – ZILD
Zild pines, warns the object of his affection but ultimately swerves just to be safe in this cheekily delivered track reminiscent of Filipino rock songs from the 90s.
BLUE MOON – NIKI
Written in the aftermath of a four-year relationship NIKI had that felt like home but suddenly fell apart, the song sees the artist reflect on the clarity of her experience with vulnerability and openness.
LAST NIGHT – JXW
Accompanied by JEONGHAN’s sweet and smooth voice and WONWOO’s deep and rough low tones, the song tells the story of two men who traverse people’s dreams in search of what they desire. We wouldn’t mind these two visiting our dreams.
NEVER BE YOURS – KALI UCHIS
Kali is already taking it with the intro alone. It’s such an aesthetic way to say FU to someone who doesn’t deserve your time.
HEY YOU – JANELLA SALVADOR
Janella really said “Happy Pride” in this jazzy love song about shooting your shot with someone who clearly has feelings for you.
NANDITO NA AKO – BENJ PANGILINAN AND ANGELA KEN
Channeling the euphoric feeling of romantic assurance, this unexpected but welcome duo concocts a soothing track that balances vintage Pinoy pop songwriting with Gen Z energy.
SOUP – AMIEL SOL
Love languages take center stage in this song about tender acts of care and affection that define a relationship.
