DNC (feat Jace T)
Erica
Verified Artist
Erica
Say hello to Erica, a gem unearthed from the misty fjords of Bergen, Norway, serenading the world with her dance tunes. This synth-swirling belter could make a sardine shimmy with her infectious energy.
Growing up with classical piano lessons under Norway's perpetual drizzle, Erica found her musical identity sandwiched between her mom's Edith Piaf records and the emotional pull of her dad's synth fascination. While most 16-year-olds are busy amassing Instagram followers, Erica channeled her teenage angst into penning down her first song. It never saw the light of day, but listen closely at her concerts and you might hear her hum those nostalgic notes.
Erica shifted her base to the bustling streets of Berlin at 23, transitioning from a street musician to minimalist stages with a poise that could make Madonna go green. Her biggest hit has to be "DNC", a song that will make your feet tap and heart flutter before you even realize. Ever seen a packed room fall silent? Attend an Erica gig, as her whispers hush the room, except for that one guy always clapping off-beat.
Straddling both cheerful and profound, Erica's music echoes her journey. Dancing through life, one synth-filled melody at a time, she's proving that you can take a Norwegian out of the rain, but you can't take the rhythm out of the girl.

Lost Inside
Jenny Star
Moonlight spills on empty streets
Traffic hums my heart repeats
Fingers trace the window’s chill
City moves but I stay still
Patterns shift and shadows play
Lost between the night and day
I hear your voice but not your name
Every step ignites the flame
Lost inside a fever dream (oh oh)
Colors crash they twist and gleam (yeah yeah)
Reaching out but space collides (oh no)
Gravity can’t break the tide (woah woah)
Curtains move the air is tight
Silent calls through wired light
Footsteps fade but walls still breathe
Memories caught they never leave
Patterns shift and shadows play
Lost between the night and day
I hear your voice but not your name
Every step ignites the flame
Lost inside a fever dream (oh oh)
Colors crash they twist and gleam (yeah yeah)
Reaching out but space collides (oh no)
Gravity can’t break the tide (woah woah)
Somewhere deep inside the glow
We exist but never know
Falling forward drifting wide
Caught between the turning tide
Soft rewind the moment breaks (mmm mmm)
Echoes left in silent wakes (ohh yeah)
Fingers trace where time once stayed
Vanished now but never fades

My Kitchen Stage
Soleil Vega
Verified Artist
Soleil Vega
Soleil Vega is the kind of artist who can turn a rainy Tuesday into a rooftop party. Born and raised in Brighton, UK, she grew up surrounded by her mother’s old soul records and the pulse of the underground dance scene. Her music lives at the intersection of deep house grooves, pop sparkle, and feel-good R&B touches, driven by radiant vocals and unapologetically joyful lyrics.
Her breakout track “My Kitchen Stage” is a celebration of everyday magic—the kind you find dancing alone at home with a spatula mic in hand. The track blends warm house rhythms with bouncy basslines and a shimmering vocal delivery that makes you want to throw open the windows and turn the volume all the way up. It’s infectious, playful, and deeply personal.
Soleil’s sound is sun-kissed but grounded. She writes about friendship, late-night cravings, heartbreak, and finding your light—in the club, in the kitchen, or in your own reflection. And when she performs, it’s not a show, it’s a shared moment. Always real, always radiant.
My Kitchen Stage
Soleil Vega
Your walls are gonna cry
They know it better than I do
I'm still scared to die
When I'm dancing without you
Maybe it's all in my head
Maybe I'll get out of bed
If you call
And I'll go dancing through my kitchen like it's a stage
And if you call
I'll go dancing through my kitchen like it's a stage
And if you call
I'll go dancing through my kitchen like it's a stage
And if you call
I'll go dancing through my kitchen like it's a stage
And if you call
I'll go dancing through my kitchen like it's a stage
And I know it's only temporary
But it's not in the way
It's not in the way that you want it
So we won't talk about it
We don't talk about it
And I know it's only temporary
But it's not in the way
It's not in the way that you want it
So we won't talk about it
We don't talk about it
Maybe it's all in my head
Maybe I'll get out of bed
If you call

Title: 마지막 신호
[Cold Open]
속도를 조금 올려
말없이 웃어 줘
오늘만은 멀리 가자
아무도 모르는 곳
[Hook A]
Drive it slow then faster
너와 나의 작은 fever
손끝보다 먼저 알아
지금 우린 달라
[Verse A]
창문 너머 번지는 길
내 마음도 같이 흔들려
아무 말도 하지 않아도
너는 이미 알고 있어
불안했던 하루 끝에
너의 웃음이 들어와
차갑게 굳은 내 표정도
조금씩 풀리고 있어
[Lift]
너무 빠른 세상 속에
우린 잠깐 멈춰 서
서두르지 않아도 돼
이미 충분히 가까워
[Main Hook]
마지막 신호가 바뀌면
우리 둘은 더 멀리 가
숨이 차도 괜찮아
오늘은 멈추고 싶지 않아
Drive through the city
너와 나 no limit
기분은 더 깊이
이 밤에 새겨지지
마지막 신호가 바뀌면
우리 둘은 더 멀리 가
말하지 못한 마음까지
속도 위에 실어 가
[Verse B]
가끔 나는 너무 조용해
마음 숨기는 법만 배워
괜찮다는 말 뒤에서
혼자 오래 버텼어
근데 너는 이상하게
내가 나를 보게 해
흔들리는 이 순간도
나쁘지 않게 느껴져
[Rap Break]
핸들은 가볍게
생각은 깊게
너의 한마디에
내 하루가 쉽게
풀려 천천히
번져 조용히
멋진 척 안 해도
너는 다 보지
속도는 올라가
심장은 따라가
선은 지켜 but tonight
기분은 날아가
No loud talk
No fake smile
너랑 있으면
I’m alive for a while
[Hook B]
Drive it slow then faster
너와 나의 작은 fever
눈빛보다 먼저 알아
지금 우린 달라
[Middle 8]
이 길 끝에 뭐가 있든
지금은 묻지 않을래
돌아갈 곳이 있어도
조금 더 있고 싶어
너도 같은 생각이면
고개만 끄덕여 줘
그거면 돼
그거면 돼
[Final Hook]
마지막 신호가 바뀌면
우리 둘은 더 멀리 가
숨이 차도 괜찮아
오늘은 멈추고 싶지 않아
Drive through the city
너와 나 no limit
기분은 더 깊이
이 밤에 새겨지지
마지막 신호가 바뀌면
우리 둘은 더 멀리 가
말하지 못한 마음까지
속도 위에 실어 가
속도를 조금 낮춰
이 순간을 남겨 둬
오늘 밤이 지나가도
나는 잊지 않을 거야

Weightless
Luna Leimberg
City hums like a quiet storm
Footsteps weave through a sleepless dawn
Glass reflections stories untold
Fingers trace where the night unfolds
Every face a fleeting spark
Moments slipping in the dark
Silent currents pull me near
Waves of time dissolve my fear
Weightless drifting through the tide
No more anchors left to fight
Let the world just spin away
Lost in motion here I’ll stay
Faint reminders on a silver screen
Ghosts of places I’ve never been
Threads of voices tangled tight
Falling forward into light
Every face a fleeting spark
Moments slipping in the dark
Silent currents pull me near
Waves of time dissolve my fear
Weightless drifting through the tide
No more anchors left to fight
Let the world just spin away
Lost in motion here I’ll stay
Not a dream not a memory
Only now is calling me
Gravity is letting go
Now I finally know
City hums like a quiet storm
Footsteps fade but I'm reborn

Still Holding On
6 Brokens
Verified Artist
6 Brokens
6 Broken came together in New York through chance encounters, shared apartments, and long conversations that stretched past midnight. None of them arrived with a plan to form a band. They met through friends, studios, and half-finished ideas, slowly realizing they were circling the same emotional territory. New York shaped them not as a backdrop, but as a pressure. The noise, the distance, the constant sense of movement seeped into how they wrote and how they listened.
Their music leans into restraint rather than release. Clean arrangements, patient melodies, and lyrics that leave space for interpretation. 6 Broken avoids obvious drama, letting tension live quietly inside the songs. There is an awareness of vulnerability without turning it into spectacle. Each member carries a different perspective, and those differences remain audible rather than polished away.
What defines 6 Broken is their refusal to rush. Songs unfold at their own pace, shaped by late-night demos, unfinished thoughts, and the feeling of standing still while a city moves around you. Their work is available exclusively on Filodyo and NOT FM, where subtlety has room to exist and music does not need to announce itself to be heard.
Still Holding On
6 Brokens
Morning hits the window late
Coffee’s cold but I feel awake
Your name’s still on my playlist
Didn’t mute it didn’t break it
I learned how silence sounds
When you’re not around
But it’s lighter than I thought
Guess I figured something out
I don’t need a sign tonight
No big speech no rewrite
Just walking straight ahead
With the things you never said
I don’t need a brand new heart
Mine still works just different parts
Some are louder some are calm
Still beating still holding on
I don’t need a clean restart
Just a little open space to start
I’m okay where I am
Yeah I’m better than I planned
City moves at normal speed
People laughing next to me
Nothing feels dramatic now
And that’s what I like about it somehow
Your jacket’s gone I kept the time
Not the fights not the lines
I don’t miss the way we broke
Just the jokes we never wrote
No more circling the same streets
No reruns in my head this week
I’m not running I’m not late
Just finally on my way
I don’t need a brand new heart
Mine still works just different parts
Some are louder some are calm
Still beating still holding on
I don’t need a clean restart
Just a little open space to start
I’m okay where I am
Yeah I’m better than I planned
If you ever wonder how I’ve been
I sleep fine I breathe fine
I learned how to let things end
Without losing who’s inside
I don’t need a brand new heart
No repair kit no fresh start
It’s been tested it’s been tried
Still alive on the inside
I don’t need to change the past
Just move forward slow and fast
I’m okay where I stand
Yeah I’m better than I planned
Better than I planned
Still here still me
Yeah I’m better than I planned

Never On The Line
Wrong Floor Cinema
Verified Artist
Wrong Floor Cinema
Wrong Floor Cinema is a four-piece alternative rock band formed in 2025 by Orson Vell, Marlow Pin, Crispin Dayrate, and Niles Weatherby. The group came together through a series of badly organized rehearsal-room bookings, after repeatedly being assigned the same basement studio by mistake. They kept the name Wrong Floor Cinema because it matched their shared taste for overlooked places, awkward situations, and things that feel slightly out of sequence.
Their music blends sharp pop-punk guitars, dry spoken-sung vocals, clipped rhythms, melodic bass lines, and an offbeat sense of humor. Although their sound draws heavily from 1990s alternative rock, they avoid straightforward nostalgia, mixing that influence with modern production, restrained arrangements, and lyrics built around mundane frustrations, social discomfort, bad timing, and small personal disasters.
Orson handles vocals and rhythm guitar, Marlow plays lead guitar, Crispin plays bass, and Niles is on drums. Together, they have built a reputation for tightly controlled live performances that still feel unpredictable, balancing catchy melodies with deadpan delivery and a slightly detached stage presence. Wrong Floor Cinema sounds like a band that arrived late, entered through the wrong door, and decided to stay anyway.
Never On The Line
Wrong Floor Cinema
I called your number
It learned my name
It said the same thing
Every day
You had a reason
Then you had two
Then you had nothing
Better to do
Ring ring
No sign
Good luck
Next time
You were never on the line
Never on the line
Always almost there
Never on the line
You were never on the line
Never on the line
I got tired of waiting
For a person made of signs
You sent a message
Without a dot
Said you were coming
Then you forgot
You had a system
You had a plan
You had a talent
For not being where I am
Ring ring
No sign
Good luck
Next time
You were never on the line
Never on the line
Always almost there
Never on the line
You were never on the line
Never on the line
I got tired of waiting
For a person made of signs
No big ending
No goodbye
Just your silence
Wearing a tie
You were never on the line
Never on the line
Always almost there
Never on the line
You were never on the line
Never on the line
I stopped calling
You stayed right on time

Never been so nervous
To open up my mouth
My heart was jumpin' hurdles
Thought I'd let you down
Never been so certain
As I am right now
The way you grabbed my waist
Pulled me close and spun me 'round
We were just a couple kids
Actin' like we were adults
Tryin' to act cool but the truth is
You always made me laugh when you told jokes
And now I'm finally bein' honest with you
It feels so good
And who knew?
So go and get the girls and the guys
And the beer on ice
And let's let the good times roll
Grew up in the same hometown
And never took a chance
But what goes around comes around
I guess that's how the story ends
We were just a couple kids
Actin' like we were adults
Tryin' to act cool but the truth is
You always made me laugh when you told jokes
And now I'm finally bein' honest with you
It feels so good
And who knew?
So go and get the girls and the guys
And the beer on ice
And let's let the good times roll
And now I'm finally bein' honest with you
It feels so good
And who knew?
So go and get the girls and the guys
And the beer on ice
And let's let the good times roll
And who knew? And who knew? And who knew?

Never Barefoot
The Syrphids
I was barefoot in the silence
dreaming of laces I could never tie
They told me “Leave your shoes behind”
but my feet were burning on holy ground
Back then the glass windows whispered
shops were cathedrals I couldn’t enter
Every sneaker a forbidden scripture
every boot a sermon I couldn’t keep
I walked with shadows on the pavement
carrying blisters instead of crowns
Now every aisle feels like confession
plastic bags my rosaries
boxes stacked like psalms unspoken
I kneel but I never pray
I can’t walk barefoot anymore
the echoes of my hunger follow me
God once said “Take off your shoes”
but He never felt these cracks in me
So I buy another pair I’ll never wear
just to silence the ghost of that child staring
at the glass at the glass at the glass
Leather tongues speak louder than my own
rubber soles drown out my guilt
Every purchase is a broken hymn
every closet a confessional built
I don’t wear them I collect my scars
like trophies of battles I never fought
The past still laces up my ankles
pulling tight with phantom strings
No barefoot freedom in the morning
just a graveyard made of things
I can’t walk barefoot anymore
the echoes of my hunger follow me
God once said “Take off your shoes”
but He never felt these cracks in me
So I buy another pair I’ll never wear
just to silence the ghost of that child staring
at the glass at the glass at the glass
Empty shoes like empty prayers
lining up my hallway shrine
I am both thief and worshipper
stealing time wasting time
I can’t walk barefoot anymore
the pavement bleeds the silence roars
God once said “Take off your shoes”
but He never stood in this hunger before
So I’ll keep on buying keep on binding
never fitting never finding…
and the child in the glass walks with me still

Halfway Honest
Rowan Grey
I told you enough to calm your doubt
Left every harder detail out
Called it mercy called it care
But truth with holes is still unfair
You read my face before my words
Knew every answer had been curved
I kept the facts at arm's length
Then watched that distance take our strength
I cannot ask for trust again
Without admitting where I bent
I was halfway honest
That means halfway gone
I gave you selected pieces
Then asked you to hold on
I was halfway honest
You deserved the whole
No more careful versions
No more edited soul
I made excuses sound so clean
Kept my fault behind a screen
Said I wanted us to heal
While I hid what you could feel
You never asked for perfect proof
Only one complete hard truth
So here it is without defense
I broke our bond with half events
I cannot ask for trust again
Without admitting where I bent
I was halfway honest
That means halfway gone
I gave you selected pieces
Then asked you to hold on
I was halfway honest
You deserved the whole
No more careful versions
No more edited soul
If you leave I understand
If you stay I change my stand
Either way this much is true
I will not hide myself from you
I was halfway honest
That means halfway gone
I gave you selected pieces
Then asked you to hold on
I was halfway honest
You deserved the whole
Now you get the full truth
No more edited soul
