In this edition of LITM Pop Picks, we have Aliénore and more!
Aliénore - “solace, an incantation”
Aliénore is a singer and songwriter that brings heavenly, choir-like atmospheres in her latest single, “Solace, an Incantation”. Be it the angelic swathes of reverb on the vocals or the dense, rich melodies, there’s something at every turn of this track that leaves you in a wondrous daze — and we’re loving every second of it. The mix is beautifully balanced with an expansive, almost limitless sound — and the production is gentle and supports the song extremely well. All in all, this is a winner of a track!

BEARR - “Wishlist”
BEARR. is a Rotterdam-based dark-pop artist crafting groovy, moving soundscapes that flow as easy as the wind — and their latest single, “Wishlist”, made in collaboration with Steve Cherry, is a chill, groovy track that gets your feet tapping and your head bobbing right from the first second. The processing on the synths and the melodic arrangement is particularly noteworthy, with an almost sampled-like feel to the instruments; and it creates a cadence of its own that’s impossible to not bob along to. The vocal delivery is the cherry on top with the whole package coming together rather nicely. Take a listen to the track here!
Head Bitch Music - Christmas time
Head Bitch Music is a label that’s dedicated to bringing forth the best in music — and with their artist BITTERS, they release “Christmas Time (Me, Myself, and I)” — just in time for the holiday spirit. The track is a smooth, easygoing country pop track that brings in the acoustic guitars and a steady, catchy drumming performance. This is all woven together by the sweet vocal performance that’s sure to leave you humming the melody long after the song has ended — and the mix gives the track polish and poise. All in all, a track worth checking out! Listen to it here:
Jam Caramel - “Superlover”
Bursting onto the scene with a funk pop sound that’s sure to be your next earworm, singer and songwriter Jam Caramel keeps it fresh and lively on their latest track, “Superlover”; and right from start to end, there’s a bristling of vibes and energy that’s impossible to ignore. The pianos are bright, the drums are paced just right, and the basses — oh, the basses! They lend the life to this track in my opinion, creating a rhythm and groove that sets the track straight, pulling you in and making you one with the music. All in all, a superbly executed track!

Mykola - “Always Lead to You”
Bringing a deep house sound to your speakers tonight is producer and musician Mykola — and on his latest single, “Always Lead To You”, he presents a love ballad in the form of a catchy, dance-first deep house sound. The refrains and buildups make for a great energy equation throughout the track, while the sound design is clear, stylistically impressive, and the mix is wide and powerful. Couple this with a vocal performance that holds the track together rather well, and you have a track that you’ll love listening to. Take a listen to the track here!
