Welcome to Freshly Squeezed, a weekly new music playlist: spanning country, pop, EDM and urban, mainstream and other.

Zenith Volt clutches you in his marvelous grasp. “Hold On” zaps the brain, like a gnarly, stem-sucking demon (think Brain Damage). But it’s far less dangerous. You can get lost in its aura and not be in fear of losing yourself. Well, you will, lose yourself that is, but it’ll be between cosmic synth rays. He points. He shoots. And you absorb the power.

J Blue left an indelible mark with the queer anthem “Pride” earlier this summer. She returns with a force on the moving piano ballad “Lighthouse,” highlighting a God-sent range. She takes the melody in her hands, turning it over delicately, and the words pour out smoothly and with towering conviction. “When the night gets heavy, let me in,” she pleads. Her voice is warm, and her invitation could not have come at a better time. We all need songs, and voices, exactly like hers.

In all, we’ve got 30 new tracks to soothe your mind during these terrible pandemic times. Insert heart emoji.

Check out new cuts from Running Lights, Youngr, The Nursery, Aubrie Sellers, Daniel Donato, Jeremy Squires, Matthew Pinder, Sasha Sloan, Gavin Haley, Lennon Stella, Sam Setton, Kris Angelis, and many more.

Each playlist will be refreshed every Friday or Saturday. We reserve the right to update anytime during the week, so make sure you bookmark this page.
