Kati Cooke – Girl’s Girl

Girl’s Girl by Kati Cooke is a super relatable story about the end of a friendship, possibly the worst and most unexpected of all ‘the breakups’.

While breakups are a well-trodden lyrical theme, it’s refreshing for the focus to be on friendship. The concept of a girl’s girl suggests someone who celebrates the success of other women and adheres to the ‘girl code, ‘ so when the line is crossed, it can feel devastating.

Kati Cooke shares her anger, frustration, and regret in this super slick slice of R&B-infused Pop. This is the type of song that would absolutely fizz when played in a late-night car ride around a city.

“Better run for cover, karma’s coming for ya.”

Working alongside her producer, Kati Cooke has captured raw emotion and transformed it into something that is both emotionally vulnerable and empowering. We can all grow from this.

Regardless of whether you want to scream, cry or shout, this could be your late-night soundtrack.

Yorkshire-based Kati Cooke dreams of reaching the level of her pop idols, which include Ariana Grande, Sabrina Carpenter, Tate McRae and  Olivia Rodrigo and this new single is another small step in the right direction.

“Kati Cooke has written a relatable pop anthem; get on board with this new female voice.”

Despite only releasing music for a year, Kati has already shared five singles and a live BBC Introducing Set. We recommend you take time to acquaint yourself with this fresh, new female voice and her growing and impressive back catalogue.

Mirby – Like This

Emerging from Copenhagen, Denmark, Mirby is an exciting artist who has discovered her voice through a fusion of R&B, pop, and funk, woven together with alternative arrangements. Her debut EP Like This is deeply significant—not only as her first official release but also as a personal milestone. The project was shaped by joy and tragedy, as Mirby lost her father during the creative process, a loss that left an undeniable imprint on the work.

Even with that weight, Like This delivers plenty of memorable moments. Across its five songs, the EP moves between carefree grooves and thoughtful reflections. The title track, Like This, sets the tone with a fun, beat-driven pop explosion, carried by Mirby’s bold and confident vocal delivery. Although brief, it serves as an unforgettable opener.

The second track, Biosphere, explores one of the most profound themes on the EP. Inspired by her late father’s philosophy, the song reflects his belief that humanity can become the consciousness of the earth only by uniting and caring for it. This message is wrapped in chilled, atmospheric production that gives the track a meditative, spiritual aura while encouraging deeper thought on such an important subject.

On What is Sexy? Mirby takes a direct stand against harmful stereotypes tied to beauty, questioning and confronting shallow perceptions. The track lands a sharp blow to patriarchal ideals through smooth, alluring R&B production, balancing its critical message with engaging, carefully crafted melodies.

Almost Getting There offers a shift toward inspiration. In it, Mirby encourages listeners to keep dreaming and pushing forward, even in the face of anxiety and society’s constant judgment. The funky rhythms and irresistible instrumentation turn the track into one of the most upbeat and motivating highlights of the project.

To close the EP, Gone stands as Mirby’s most heartfelt and vulnerable track so far. Stripped down to an acoustic ballad, it is a tribute to her father, filled with raw emotion and honest lyricism. Loneliness and longing are at the core of the song, giving the EP a striking and emotional conclusion.

“Like This is a true success, filled with heartfelt lyricism and versatile production. It highlights Mirby’s artistry in every way and is an EP that listeners should not overlook.”

Beyond the music itself, Mirby represents the growing importance of the DIY approach. She not only directs and edits her own videos but also recorded the EP alongside producer Valdemar Littauer Bendixen, adding even more credibility to her craft. With Like This, Mirby proves she is an emerging musician with something genuine to say and the talent to back it up.

Poesie – Hunter-Gatherer

Poesie (Eloïse Poulton) is a growing London-based artist, previously known as a successful theatre writer and director, with her work called ‘genius’ (The Skinny) and ‘Incredibly compelling’ (The Guardian). Furthermore, her storytelling and enthusiasm has led to sold-out shows at Soho Theatre, The Arcola and even featured on BBC Sussex.

Now Poesie uses her theatre skills to create magical soul-touching stories in her songs, which are bursting with raw emotions and sincere struggles, as she explores the challenges in online dating, climate change and the loneliness epidemic faced in society. With her unique and dreamy vocals, Poesie yearns to reconnect with others and nature, especially in the cold loneliness present in the city, with her debut single Hunter-Gatherer. 

This first release from her 4-track EP (Lost Romantics) is vibrant, expressive, and euphoric with honest lyricism longing to be found, like a coming-of-age movie.

Poesie’s Hunter-Gatherer offers a silly sincerity to everyday problems with its stumbling synths and exciting, eager electro-beat. It encourages living in the blissful feelings of freedom as a brief 2.5-minute escape, and it encourages singing and dancing along with its fleeting harmonies.

Poesie fuses indie and dance pop genres, drawing inspiration from artists like Marina, MUNA, Kate Bush, and CHVRCHES to create something energetic and earnest. This distinct dance pop banger feels unique, with beautiful, yearning vocals that are coated in authentic, relatable fears of loneliness, all bundled into an addictive chorus. Hunter-Gatherer will create a lingering impression that will continue to be dissected in your subconscious.

“Hunter-Gatherer is the track which distils the whole EP. It will make you move, think and burst with life. It’s wondrous and ecstatic.” – Eloïse Poulton, Poesie

TYYA B – Now U Know

Born in Slovenia and raised in a musical household, TYYA B developed a solid foundation in music from an early age. She refined her skills by studying jazz piano at Austria’s Gustav Mahler University, a step that set the stage for her evolving career.

The last time TYYA B made waves, she released Potion, a smooth and mesmerizing collaboration with rapper KeyLow. Since its debut, the track has surpassed 3,000 streams, showcasing her ability to craft captivating melodies. Now, she takes a different direction with Now U Know, revealing another side of her artistry and proving her versatility as a performer.

Shifting away from the style of her previous single, TYYA B unveils a more intimate and personal side with Now U Know. The song serves as a heartfelt tribute to a longtime friend who vanished from her life without a farewell. Through reflective lyrics, she recalls the meaningful moments they shared, cherishing the encouragement and self-belief that friendship once provided. Though she now moves forward on her own, she carries those positive influences with her, hoping to pass them on to listeners. With Now U Know, TYYA B delivers a deeply personal message about loss, remembrance, and resilience.

Among TYYA B’s most introspective tracks to date, Now U Know moves away from lighthearted tones, embracing a more contemplative atmosphere. Built on melancholic guitar loops, electronic beats, and ethereal vocals, the song delves into the fleeting nature of relationships, exploring their significance even as they fade into memory.

“Now U Know is a deeply heartfelt piece, driven by touching storytelling and a stripped-down, minimalist production.”

As one of her most personal releases yet, Now U Know highlights TYYA B’s ability to translate emotion into music with an evocative approach. With more music on the horizon, 2025 is set to be a defining year for her artistic growth.
