Flo Frequency's "Infinite Light" is doing what it set out to do, and it's doing it pretty well. In a moment where so much soul and R&B feels built for algorithmic playlists rather than actual listening, this record asks you to show up for it and I appreciate that.

Rebecca Dow's "War Against Emptiness" is an alt-rock song at heart with shoegaze bones and a whiff of grunge.

SERah's "Going Nowhere" explores emotional stagnation, the feeling of being stuck in cycles that you cannot escape.

Eric Alexandrakis' version of "One More Angel" is a celebration of Malo's life as successful solo singer as well as genuine friend and person rather than a lament.

The Lions Groove "Sunrise in Your Eyes" starts with just drums, then slowly but deliberately, layers itself into a full-blown song.

Ava Valianti's "alterations" sits in that sweet spot between dream-pop float and folk-pop.

Eli Wise breaks his decade-long hiatus with his EP, "Ghosts and Logic".
