The Utopia Strong         Doperider

Nemo                  Arthouse           

Swiss 2024 Eurovision winner whose album represents a utopian mindset and a place of longing, a safe space, a think tank, and a blasting house party; a space for encounters and exchange, but also plenty of room for self-discovery. High energy, high emotion and high-pitched vocals.

Dust      Sky is Falling   

A pair of dextrous guitarists traverse jagged post-punk styles, confrontational punk tones, as well as a mild shoegaze influence at times, all the while flanked by a see-sawing saxophone attack. There are nods to the likes of Joy Division, Iceage, Sonic Youth, MBV, Maruja.

The Antlers       Blight   

A work of meticulous world-building, teeming with ear candy and surprising stylistic shifts. While many songs begin with sparse elements— a fingerpicked guitar, hypnotic organ stabs, or a nimble piano melody — they rarely remain tethered to their foundations.

Brian Eno and Beatie Wolfe     Liminal              

In Brian and Beatie’s words, “Liminal stands at the point of convergence between Lateral and Luminal.
