Five months into 2021 and we caught up with one of our artists to watch this year. The Berlin-based singer Mulay released her anticipated debut "ANTRACYTE". Somewhere between alternative RnB and contemporary pop, she continues to shape her own musical niche. We caught up with the artist to talk about the release and where else 2021 might take her.
A time of fundamental crisis tends to create impressive art and right now there’s an incredible amount of exciting new bands that take elements of previous independent rock incarnations and adds a modern twist to it. Maybe the age of creating band hypes is over but NBHAP author Norman tried it anyway and invites all fellow old “indie heads” like him to jump on this bandwagon.
The haunting dream pop by the British two-piece is opening this week's selection of newcomer tracks. Further additions to our playlist include Still Woozy, Oska, Oya Paya, Ashe, Hollie Gautiér and a few others.
Every Friday music fans are faced with the same burning question: What to listen to from the sheer endless sea of new albums, EPs and other releases?

Risen out of the Britpop ashes and inspired by trip hop: this band was never interested in following the easy way. To celebrate their iconic and still timeless debut album NBHAP head Norman had a brief exchange with band leader Guy Garvey to reflect on the group's early days at the turn of the century.
In a few days, "Monsters", Sophia Kennedys sophomore record, will be released. NBHAP author Miriam took the chance and met the charismatic singer for a little online chat about her new release and the monsters which come along with it.
Danish artist Lydmor is an unstoppable force of nature, one that is destined to push her own artistic and personal boundaries with every new release. Her pop is adventurous, relentless and forward-thinking and in a time that’s dominated by a lot of question marks it’s not the worst thing to imagine a better future. Together with her music we might be ready to shape it and this exchange will hopefully ignite it. And of course, she also picked tunes for our beloved playlist.
The Fufanu leader teases his solo debut with a pretty impressive piece of music that's opening this week's update of our newcomer playlist. Find it along fresh tracks from Wyldest, Maple Glider, THALA, Spill Tab, Evolfo and others.
