Where Did You GoJax Jones feat. MNEK
A perfect track to start your day with upbeat dance music.
British music producer Jax Jones features fellow British singer MNEK on “Where Did You Go.” Released on February 4, 2022, the song reached No.
7 on the UK charts.
It really showcases MNEK’s vocal ability.
If you like songs in the vein of Avicii, you’re sure to love this one!
The KidPREP
If you want to kick off a wonderful morning with a stylish pop song and boost your mood, I recommend PREP, a London-based city pop band that’s very popular.
Even back when they were releasing EPs, they were highly acclaimed across Asia, including Japan, and in 2020 they dropped their self-titled debut album, which fully showcased their talents.
Their visuals—like music videos that make extensive use of retro 8-bit aesthetics—are impeccably stylish and align perfectly with the keyword most central to their music: the 80s.
Their January 2022 release, The Kid, is another gem, featuring a mellow yet pop-infused groove with PREP’s signature sophisticated flair.
It’s also perfect for a day off when you want to get moving from the morning.
CaprichosoRauw Alejandro
Rauw Alejandro, a rapper and singer-songwriter born in 1994 who’s often called the “king of modern reggaeton,” is highly popular for his tasteful fusion of Latin flavor and contemporary pop.
A rising young star from Puerto Rico, he released “Caprichoso” in February 2022, a track included on his EP Trap Cake, Vol.
2.
The Latin and reggaeton elements are kept to a minimum; as the EP title suggests, it’s built on trap-style beats, with a finely blended mix of contemporary R&B and pop.
Its fresh melody makes it perfect for a sunny summer morning.
pity party ft. Royal & The SerpentStand Atlantic
Stand Atlantic is a pop-punk band from Australia featuring a powerful woman vocalist—the lone female member in the group.
Signed to the renowned American indie label Hopeless, they create a sound that not only resonates with the generation who loved 2000s pop-punk in real time but also appeals to younger music fans who’ve gotten into the genre through its current revival boom.
From their third album, F.E.A.R., released in May 2022, we’re spotlighting the straight-ahead pop-punk tune “pity party,” which doesn’t shy away from bold lyrics.
It’s a collaboration with singer-songwriter Royal & The Serpent, known for her unique dark aesthetic.
With catchy melodies and guitar work that give a strong push to anyone wanting to forget yesterday’s troubles and face a new morning, the track also cleverly weaves in modern trap-inspired elements—an excellent touch.
AngelicaWet Leg
A perfect song for a wake-up alarm—you’ll be out of bed in no time.
Wet Leg is a rapidly rising British band that debuted in 2021, with their first single “Chaise Lounge” becoming an exceptional hit.
They’re a female duo.
“Angelica,” released on March 1, 2022, is a psychedelic track that blends various elements, evoking ’60s rock and ’90s grunge.
Its distinctive sound is sure to wake you up feeling refreshed!
