Chess Galea – “Ain’t No Better Love”

Born with the sound of classical piano in her ears, this Maltese singer/songwriter began learning to play herself. The discovery of a Queen album however revealed her true ambition of being a singer and dancer. In 2010 she moved to the UK to attend the Academy of Contemporary Arts. She’s performed from Abu Dhabi to London with her Freddie Mercury and Alicia Keys-inspired R&B/Pop sound.

Her latest single is a honeyed, laidback R&B groove. The intricate, 90s-reminiscent, instrumentation of multi-layered synths, smooth beats and suave fingersnaps radiates a mellow warmth and wraps its euphonious arms around her silky, sophisticated vocals. With lustrous harmonies adding to the polished, ear-stroking sound, this breezy tune is full of infatuating auditory indulgence.

Oliver Heimach – “Golden Hour”

This Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter and producer has waded through many corners of the musical world already. He started songwriting at 18, with an initial interest in Musical Theater. Luckily his passion for pop took him to joining several bands, but started molding his own sound after a West-Coast move in 2015. His debut single “Saturday Morning Cartoons” was released in 2018.

Infected by some groovy Saturday Night Fever vibes, his latest single is a Bee Gees-influenced disco extravaganza. With some glistening synths woven through the fabric of the 70s instrumentation of a sprightly beat, plucky bass and vintage violins spawning images of brightly lit, multi-colored dance-floors, his flawless, retro-dipped, falsetto vocals put the finishing touch on this sweet disco banger.
