Breaking a seven-year silence, Canadian songstress Nelly Furtado released her album “7” in 2024.

The track she unveiled in April 2025 is a narrative-rich mid-tempo ballad that explores marriage, love, and staying true to oneself.

Set to a sophisticated blend of R&B and soul, her deeply emotive vocals resonate with listeners.

Produced by Gray Hawken, the piece took two years to make and was recorded across three cities.

Released as a double A-side single with “GOD,” it does not appear on the album “7.” It’s a song to turn to when you want to reflect on deep love and life.

mambo skaSka Cubano

Ska Cubano, a band that began activities in 2001 and is based in London and Cuba, created an original sound that brilliantly fuses Cuban music with Jamaican ska.

Featuring a multinational lineup led by Natty Bo, they drew attention for their musical style that skillfully weaves elements of Cuban music—such as mambo, son, and rumba—into ska.

They also earned international acclaim, including an appearance at the 2005 Nobel Peace Prize Concert and a BBC World Music Award nomination for their album ¡Ay Caramba!.

In Japan, they performed energetically as well, appearing at the Fuji Rock Festival and headlining a solo show at Roppongi Hills in 2006.

They are highly recommended for anyone who wants to fully experience the charm of ska and Latin music.

Sub Urban, hailing from New York State, is known for his dark, theatrical worldview and distinctive style.

With a unique background—his father is French-Canadian and his mother is from Taiwan—his latest work is an ambitious piece that fuses alternative pop at its core with a dreamlike soundscape and raw emotional intensity.

The track included on the album “If Nevermore,” though only 2 minutes and 16 seconds long, portrays heavy themes such as betrayal and psychological collapse, expressed through his signature warped melodies.

Created over a lengthy production period from 2019 to 2024, the work was released in April 2025 alongside a music video directed by Sterling Larose.

It’s a song I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone who connects with dark, melancholic moods.

In late-1970s Britain, The English Beat (known as The Beat in the UK) took the music scene by storm as key figures in the 2 Tone movement.

Building on ska and new wave, they fused a wide range of genres—including soul, reggae, and punk—into an innovative sound that was danceable yet infused with social messages.

They debuted in 1980 with the album “I Just Can’t Stop It,” and in just three years went on to score hits with three studio albums in rapid succession.

The band’s distinctive ensemble—Dave Wakeling’s powerful vocals, Ranking Roger’s toasting, and Saxa’s deeply expressive saxophone—continues to captivate listeners today.

Their commitment to confronting racism through music and advocating multicultural coexistence makes them a perfect listen for anyone seeking the true essence of dance music.

My Best Friend’s GirlThe Cars

It’s a single released by the American band The Cars in October 1978, opening with a rockabilly-style guitar riff and handclaps, and marked by a catchy melody and ironic lyrics.

Included on the band’s debut album, The Cars, the track became a major hit, reaching No.

35 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No.

3 in the UK.

Its universal theme—painfully discovering that your best friend’s current girlfriend is actually your ex—has enduring appeal, and combined with its innovative blend of new wave and power pop, it continues to captivate listeners today.

Featured on the soundtrack of the 1979 film Over the Edge, this song is recommended not only for anyone nursing a broken heart, but also as great driving music.

Modern KicksThe Exploding Hearts

A vital, life-affirming track that showcases new possibilities for power pop by The Exploding Hearts opened their 2003 studio album Guitar Romantic.

With its simple yet striking guitar riff, driving chord progression, and irresistibly catchy hooks, the song brilliantly fuses elements of 1970s British punk and power pop.

Though based in Portland, Oregon, the band crafted a distinctive world of their own—strongly influenced by The Buzzcocks and The Jam—through youthful energy and refined sensibilities.

The track continues to receive high acclaim, having been ranked among Pitchfork’s “Top 500 Tracks of the 2000s.” It’s highly recommended not only for fans of punk rock and power pop, but also for anyone seeking a catchy, immediate tune.
