The first single from what is expected to be Seattle-based musician and singer-songwriter Vylet Pony's next full-length Love & Ponystep. Never, in Anno Domini 2025, did I expect to be singing along to as many Call of Duty references in one song, but you know, life has a way of surprising you like that. A fun little slice of sugary glitch pop, probably the closest she's gotten to hyperpop since 2020's ANTONYMPH, and I'd argue it works even better here for me because she's now pandering to an era I'm more familiar with than the Skype scenecore of the latter. I mean, I've always had a deep-seated sub-conscious belief that Call of Duty is highly homosexual—who's to say it's that far a step to making it more sapphic like this?
Er... I guess Vylet Pony is. It's a great song.

Really, the majority of her latest album has been in the running for me. But this one in particular I keep coming back to—I've always been of the opinion that Vylet's rap stuff has always been lacking, being either too barren production-wise or not bringing the energy to the mic. Here, she brings it all up to speed in spades, with a ridiculously catchy chorus from SadisticTushi and a guest verse from Namii that I'm honestly half-convinced is outshining Vylet on her own song. It's all good, it's ridiculously, surprisingly good, it's worth your time.

Callie Nixon's debut album as flatroom is all it's cracked up to be and more. Not just content to be behind the boards as a talented producer with roots in the fledgling Dariacore scene, she's also an immensely affecting composer and singer-songwriter with influences from noughties-era country and folk. On I Don't Even Need, these two influences combine like headstrong bucks, relaxed and warm acoustic guitar-driven folk giving way to a rushing, soaring burst of happy hardcore arpeggios and energy. It's hands down the best song on the album, and it's really fighting for that spot between the album version of Blood sugar and the cover of When the Stars Go Blue.

Getting a lot more into Spanish-language music as of recent—from Spain, France, Chile, Mexico, Argentina, and in the case of Esteman, Colombia. This piece, the second off his 2021 album Si Volviera A Nacer, features some beautiful vocals from Mexico's Daniela Spalla, and a melody that is eerily reminiscent (to me, anyway) of Centuries by Fall Out Boy. A very nocturnal song that I've been using as a soundtrack to my nightly drive home from work this past month.

I've just had "music to do evil things to" on the mind as of recent. This one's in a more EDM vein, peddling a little hardstyle, a little festival trap, a little
techno... it's fun as hell.
