Chrome JetsThe Smashing Pumpkins

Chrome Jets

As a band that epitomizes the alternative rock scene, The Smashing Pumpkins command immense popularity.

Blending genres like grunge and psychedelia, they even won a Grammy in 1997.

The track they’ve unveiled here is a previously unreleased song, built around a chunky, chugging guitar riff that evokes ’70s hard rock, delivering a powerful, weighty sound.

Shimmering, glass-like synths layer on top to add a distinctive depth.

Lyrically, it’s compelling—addressing universal, serious themes of love, death, and shared pain through religious metaphors.

Born from the sessions for the August 2024 album “Aghori Mhori Mei,” the song was released as a standalone single in September 2025.

It’s a perfect fit for fans seeking the band’s early raw energy or anyone craving thick, guitar-driven rock.

Thundercat – ‘Children of the Baked Potato (feat. Remi Wolf)’

Known as a virtuoso bassist, Thundercat won a Grammy in 2021 for his album “It Is What It Is.” The track he released in September 2025 features LA-born singer Remi Wolf.

It unfolds a supreme funk sound where a dynamic beat built on polyrhythms intertwines with a technically dazzling yet playful bassline.

The song pays homage to a long-standing jazz club in LA, and it’s fascinating that the two artists’ musical roots intersect in its backstory.

It also drew major attention when the promo video was shown across 42 outdoor screens in Shibuya.

Candle in the windElton John

Lady Diana – Candle in the wind (Goodbye Englands rose) – Elton John – Lyrics in text

Elton John is a British singer-songwriter who holds world records for singles and albums.

His body of work includes many timeless ballads that resonate deeply.

This piece is a requiem dedicated to stars who shone brightly in their youth only to fade too soon.

It likens their lives to flames flickering in the wind, portraying the loneliness and sorrow behind the glamorous world alongside a beautiful piano melody.

Originally included on the classic 1974 album Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, it was rewritten in 1997 to honor the late Princess Diana, achieving historic sales of over 33 million copies worldwide.

All proceeds were donated to charity.

When you think of someone dear or feel a sadness beyond words, its gentle melody will surely stay close to your heart.

Rooted in R&B while blending in pop and trap influences, his style is undeniably easy on the ears.

The project he released in August 2025 is a slow jam perfectly suited for a chilled-out night.

Over a soundscape woven from delicate keyboard melodies and a rich 808 bass, his emotional vocals—laced with falsetto—resonate beautifully.
