✦  A cry rising from the heart of Newcastle: OCHISIA. Its name is as unique to say as it is to write — oh-kee-zee-uh — but the real difference lies in the raw emotion spreading from the stage, the heartfelt shaking melodies, and being the inner voice of lost generations. The band’s second EP, In Your Absence, set to release on August 15, 2025, drags listeners into deep waters like guilt, regret, and mental health. But this isn’t about getting lost in darkness; on the contrary, the EP embraces that darkness with melodic honesty and carries the courage to transform it. Just like its title “absence,” this EP sometimes comes with a silent, sometimes bursting state of mind for the listener. OCHISIA chooses to sculpt their past not by erasing its traces, but by telling its story through music. The Journey That Began with “Drenched” The creative spark of the EP, “Drenched,” was born out of Rhys’s struggles with anxiety and panic attacks. According to the band, from the moment they...

✦ Berlin-based band Maiorano takes listeners on a deep journey into their roots, traumas, and the truest emotions hidden within silence with their new song “Rosa.” Known for their groovy melodies influenced by funk, soul, and world music, this time the group strips everything down to its simplest form. Rosa is a story where words carry weight, guitars speak with echoes, and the narrative flows calmly yet sharply. There’s a lot of silence in it—but this silence transforms into a silent scream. “When I picked up the guitar and played the first notes, that story came to my mind.

The song consists of three verses, each diving deeper than the last. The delivery is almost whispered; instead of loading words with heavy notes, it lets them carry the meaning themselves....

✦ Rising from the streets of Los Angeles, El Caplan is an artist who masterfully blends the roots of Mexico with the modern flair of American culture in his music. Recorded during the 2020 lockdown in his small studio in Indio, California, Escándalo breathes cinematic and hypnotic new life into the legendary track by La Sonora Dinamita. This is more than a cover. It is a mystical journey reminiscent of a Tarantino film, where borders, cultures, and genres collide. The Melody of Cultural Synthesis Born to a mother from Sinaloa, Mexico, and an American session musician father, El Caplan grew up between two cultures. His artistic journey began with traditional ballet folklórico and evolved into a dynamic career as a producer and musician, collaborating with artists such as Dr. Dre, J. Cole, and Anderson .Paak. His debut EP Our Lady, the Queen of Angels, released in March 2025, was co-produced with Grammy-winning producer Eddie Spear (Zach Bryan, Sierra Ferrell) and draws listeners i...
