Hear the latest tracks from the BRICKS Best New Music playlist this month.
Del Water Gap – ‘Damn’
One of three new promo singles from indie-pop artist Del Water Gap, teasing the release of his third studio album Chasing the Chimera, arriving 7 November 2025. Raw and introspective, his latest track fuses tender vocals with textured indie-pop production, capturing the messy vulnerability of modern love.
Emma Bradley – ‘this is what dreams are made of’
Gentle piano and an angelic melody that feels almost mystical. The second half lifts into an upbeat, danceable rhythm before closing with a beautiful orchestral finish. A standout from emerging London-born artist, producer, and composer Emma Bradley.
Erin LeCount – ‘MACHINE GHOST’
She’s done it again; Erin LeCount’s latest single ‘MACHINE GHOST’ is masterful, emotive, and deeply cinematic as she leans into her inner Florence Welch, while carving out her own sound. The 22-year-old continues to prove she’s one to watch.
Geese – ‘Trinidad’
Sexy, smooth, and visceral with a 70s rock ‘n’ roll flair. ‘Trinidad’ opens Geese’s latest album Getting Killed, released at the end of September. Channeling frenetic energy and razor-sharp riffs, the track perfectly sets the tone for the album’s bold, genre-blurring journey.
kamille – ‘When I Lie’
‘When I Lie’ is the newest single from one of the UK’s most celebrated songwriters, kamille; the pen behind hit songs by Little Mix, Dua Lipa, Jess Glynne, and Demi Lovato. The track fuses hyperpop sounds with nostalgic 2000s Eurodance – always a winning combo in my book.
Lily Allen – ‘Pussy Palace’
From her candid new album West End Girl, Lily Allen explores the dissolution of her marriage to Stranger Things actor David Harbour with brutal honesty. ‘Pussy Palace’ is tender, raw, and ridiculously catchy – a perfect encapsulation of Lily’s skillful songwriting.
Oklou and FKA twigs – ‘viscus’
A transcendent and futuristic track, layered with shimmering synths. When FKA twigs enters, transcendence becomes ascension. A wonderful and fitting feature for Oklou, the French alt artist celebrating the release of her debut album Choke Enough.
PinkPantheress and Zara Larsson – ‘Stateside + Zara Larsson’
One of the standout tracks from PinkPantheress’ Fancy Some More?; the remix album to the recently released Fancy That. ‘Stateside + Zara Larsson’ features the Swedish pop powerhouse – recently dubbed Beyoncé’s first white daughter. The song perfectly illustrates the concept of two queens coming together to maximise their joint slay.
Rosalía, Björk, Yves Tumor – ‘Berghain’
Heartbroken men in religious psychos kill people, heartbroken women in religious psychosis create ‘Berghain’. Rosalía supersedes herself on this orchestral track; 13 languages sung, with a feature from Queen Mother Bjork, the talented Yves Tumor and Cor de Cambra del Palau de la Música Catalana. The music video, directed by Nicolás Méndez, is the perfect accompaniment to the song, swelling with beautiful stills and complex symbolism.
Samia – ‘Cinder Block’
Mellow, melancholy, and vulnerable; singer-songwriter Samia returns with her most recent single release ‘Cinder Block’ following the Fifth Year Studio Edition of her 2020 album The Baby. Fun fact, Samia is American actress Kathy Najimy’s daughter – proof that nepotism is acceptable when said recipient is actually talented.
Sampha – ‘Cumulus / Memory’
Sampha delivers, once again, with his reflective and soulful storytelling. ‘Cumulus / Memory’ is poetic, emotive, and mesmerising – and in this crumbling country, Sampha remains one of our few national treasures.
Witch Post – ‘Chill Out‘
’Grungy yet charming, ‘Chill Out’ tells a raw story of addiction between the two vocalists. Witch Post is the new duo made up of of Scottish musician Dylan Fraser and American artist Alaska Reid. ‘Chill Out’ is the lead single from their upcoming debut album Beast.
Rose Gray – ‘I Don’t Speak French’
Sultry and effortlessly cool, ‘I Can’t Speak French’ sees Rose Gray dive deeper into her club-pop persona on her new remix album. Blending glossy Y2K synths with a defiant vocal delivery, it’s a shimmering ode to losing control… and loving every second of it.
