This Week's LITM Pop Picks are all about Flamboyance Featuring artists like sunny court, Global Hypersynth, CATDADDY, Franchón, and Noelle Carroll.
sunny court • Apollo Rising - Bloodshot
sunny court aka Kyle MacNeil is an alternative artist from Canada with a capacity for progressive expression like no other. His work is a deliberate act of novelty as he plunges repeatedly into genre-bending soundscapes to emerge with pearls of sonic perspectives. For his latest track, Bloodshot, Sunny Court collaborates with fellow alt artist, Danick Coutu aka Apollo Rising. Combining hip-hop elements with pop and experimental electronica, the sound design is purposed to exude an emotional appeal through each layer. Hip-hop beats excite basslines in the backdrops, powering the erratic streaks of sound. It is astounding how from this mercurial turmoil, the artists draw romantic melancholy and heartache that colors the vocals.
Global Hypersynth - You & Me Tonight
The disco and house influences appear almost immediately when you hit play. You & Me Tonight is the latest dance electro-pop track by Global Hypersynth.

He cultivates the emotion and euphoria side by side, connecting them progressively with storytelling and passion. Listeners of Daft Punk, Purple Disco Machine, Todd Terje, Breakbot, and the like are sure to enjoy the flashy flamboyance of this artist’s blends. Listen Now!
Noelle Carroll - strawberry skittles
Noelle Carroll is a storytelling singer-songwriter and pop artist focusing her soundscapes to fathoming tales that are intricately wound and universally appealing. In her latest track, strawberry skittles, the artist narrates a love story. Flush with sweet memories and hearty imagery, it is reminiscent of Taylor Swift love songs - with the honest lyrics and vulnerable sentiments. The soft pop track is made with mild acoustics, stripped vocals and loose beat structures, referencing the “You Belong With Me” and “Love Story” era. It flows easy with a pleasant temperament and candy hearts. And Noelle’s buoyant vocals, seeped in tenderness and dreamy joy, float through the fluttering soundscape.
CATDADDY - Disco Love
Cat Daddy’s disco-pop changes up the mood of this queue with its springing trumpets and groovy funk. While Aidan Paul’s vibrant and glam weaves light up the soundscape, Leonardo Bacan visual production style gives the soundscape a three dimensional flavor. It is incredibly immersive and flamboyant. Listening to the track, you’re sure to float back into an era of irrepressible music and dance culture. The dance beats are elevated by tiers of trumpet textures and skating bass lines. And the pop vocals act as a vessel for these swirling textures to combine and form an inextricable retro energy. With romance and love in the air, dance in the body, and disco in the veins, the song resonates with joy.
Franchón - Secret Place
Franchón has another act up her sleeve. The Heavy Hitting Diva and super middleweight boxing champion aka Franchón Crews-Dezurn debuts her music project with her single, Secret Place. The dance-filled track features the inexorable power of her artistic essence and sonic ability. With flashy melodies, reviving beats and soul vocals, the song is electro-pop at its grandeur. She fathoms her secret place of magical love with infinite romance, using movement and dance to transcend to that consciousness. And with her, she takes us with us. Ethereal harmonies and mounting synths elevate the sound and intensify the highs as you get deeper and deeper. The track has since been supplemented by four remixes, each one brandishing the song with amusing styles and patterns.
