In My Mind by fkblnde, pronounced “fake blonde,” grabbed our attention with its groovy electronic beat. Its vocals are light and soothing, representing the heartwarming themes, both making you feel lighter. The drum beat is especially notable, pulling influence from the breakcore genre while keeping an enchanting pop and R&B vibe. The instrumental is comprised of electronic sound effects and synth chords, giving the song a dreamy aesthetic.

Last on our list is Rainsford‘s Butterfly, which intoxicated us with its distinct euphoric sound. Its electric guitar performs a satisfying riff, supporting the angelic melody in the vocals. The acoustic guitar provides a rhythmic contrast to the electric, as well as another percussive element that supports the drums. We appreciate the structure of the chord progressions, which allow the positive feelings of the song to flow. Rainsford is not only a musician, but is also an actress, model, and creative director, giving her a wide perspective in her creative process. Her unique sound is worth getting to know.
