Kkokokokokokokoko – vote 8.00 – Kokoroko releases soul and energy into a contaminated jazz that vibrates with color and warmth.

Soulwax – VOTE 7.50 – A hymn to rhythmic catharsis: Soulwax rewrite the tension in propulsive energy, between electronic cadences and synthetic surge. A song that combines shape and impulse, with a productive and dancing penalty penalty. Engaging.
Mecna – Vote 7.50 – An instinctive, almost diaristic work, in which the form gives way to substance. Sound fragments without refrains or rigid structures crossed by an emotional and cohesive narrative thread. Mecna relies on the flow, letting the writing speak before the form even. Elegant and intimate, poetic!
Drake – Vote 7.50 – Drake returns to the charge, more direct and personal than ever. After the skirmishes with Kendrick Lamar, the song marks the first lunge of the new chapter: fluid melodies, sharp stanzas and not too veiled references to old cracked alliances. A solo return that rekindles the fire!
Burna Boy – Stromae – 7.50 vote – Burna and Stromae naturally intertwine their musical souls: the melancholy elegance of Stromae merges with the Afrobeat pulsations of Burna. The result is an enveloping, refined and vibrant song, capable of dragging without ever losing balance or depth.

The collaboration between Farrell and Sampha amplifies introspection in a delicate but decisive musical dialogue, sound reflection of an identity in formation and turmoil.
Giveon – VOTE 7.50 – If you are looking for the perfect bed song, here you are satisfied: R&B Stiloso, velvety and sensual. A sound pamper that caresses with grace and intention, perfect for slow nights and complicit looks.
The Hives – 7.25 vote – Hives raise the shot between incendiary sarcasm and hyper -impressed rock garage. An explosion of social frustration in a poor two minutes, fierce as a punk pamphlet, calibrated like a well -settled hook. Subversive.
Jim Legxacy -vote 7.15-Jim continues to rewrite the lexicon of the British alt-r & b: Stick It is an accelerated emotional fragment, between visual glitches and urban confessions. Revealing.
Justin Bieber– 7.15 vote – Soft but effective return: Bieber reappears with a smooth pop song, imbued with urban shades and contemporary sensuality. An exercise in style that confirms its ability to keep up with the sounds of the moment without losing identity.
Weval – VOTE 7.00 – Between analog echoes and psychedelic drifts, the Weval shaped a cinephile and changing electronics all to be danced!
Fever Ray – VOTE 7.00 – A cathartic explosion, where the surreal characters of his universe recover in a collective session. Tension, desire and performance merge. Shamanic.
Jonathan Jeremiah – VOTE 7.00 – Jonathan Jeremiah sculpts a sound fresco between orchestral pathos and narrative intimacy. The sumptuous arrangement supports a story that combines family myth and personal mourning, led by a warm and authoritative voice. Cinematico.
Hot Chip – VOTE 7.00 – A song that embodies their emotional and dancing lexicon. Emblematic.
Sissi – VOTE 7.00 – An intense and conscious ballad, crossed by emotional maturity and lucid vision. A song that transforms fragility and passion into force and rebirth. Good!
Wolf Alice – VOTE 7.00 – Intimate, refined, delicate. Wolf Alice’s new song is a whisper that crosses the soul and heart, stripping of tinsels to leave room for a sincere and minimal emotional necessity. A sweet return, but full of depth.
Rudimental – Jess Glyne – VOTE 6.75 – A almost 2 step attitude characterizes this collaboration between Rudimental and Jess Glynne. The result is fresh, dynamic and danceable, capable of combining energy and lightness in a song that lets itself be listened to with pleasure.

Nima e filoq – VOTE 6.75 – Suggestioni Afro, Beat Breed and Gnawa Traditions in a liquid and canvolian sound story. “Oceans Erased” is an evocative experiment, more fascinating in the intentions than in the final impact. The research is alive, but not always centered. Visionary.
Big Thief – Voto 6,75 – A song that gives up the form-chanzone to make minimal mantra: between expanded percussion and shelled stamps, Lenker’s voice becomes a fragile vehicle of an eros without fault or border. A more conceptual than emotional song. Ineffable.
Irbis – Vote 6.75 – Irbis transforms anger and disillusionment into authentic expression. A search for personal salvation, between loneliness and desire for liberation. A raw and sincere work, which vibrates under the skin. Very interesting!
I swear – Vote 6.75 – Guitarrine and groove funky in a narrative flow fragmented on the failed relationships. The song captures an emotional tension, between conquest and obsession, in a dense and enveloping sound alchemy. A light but intense sound story.
Calari – Vote 6.50 – A mild and airy pop, where winds and guitars disenchant the end of a love with disenchantment. The song celebrates the abandonment and irony of those who choose lightness as resistance. A fragile balance between light -heartedness and reality. Disenchanted.
Masamasa – vote 6.50 – Masamasa reflects on the transition to adulthood with its disenchanted and sweet and sour style. Among irony and awareness, the song tells the silent but profound transformation that accompanies the growth all seasoned with synth eighties sounds.
Marla – Vote 6.50 – A melancholy and suspended ballad, in which Marla crystallizes a finished love between fluffy synths and psychedelic guitars. His soft and intense voice gracefully tells the disorientation that arises when whoever was everything becomes a stranger.
Westcross – vote 6.50 – Westcross digs in memory and fault with essential storytelling, where impotence becomes narrative. Lester Nowhere’s Beat Chillhop is super stylish and discreetly accompanies a story of loss and friendship, suspended between the outburst and the surrender.
Drimmer – Vote 6.50 – A song that, recalling Vanoni’s classic homonymous, denounces the flattening of the contemporary scene. Rabbioso but aware rap, between disappointment and a shy hope of redemption. A critical manifesto with an intermittent impact. Convinced.
PLZ – Vote 6.30 – A mantra glitch where Synth Sghemb and weighted bass create an electronic hypnosis, led by a voice that challenges the prevalent ideologies. “But where run” is an invitation to deviate from the common track, suggesting a meditative and incisive sound awakening.
Reference – vote 6.30 – The desire to overturn the summer cliché. An alternative pop that melts melancholy and sarcasm. Between light beat and Synth Salmastri, the rough voice reveals the solitude hidden behind the party, unmasking the illusion of a now faded summer.
Marte -vote 6.30-Mars has its roots in its South, mixing Hip-Hop Old School atmospheres and sharp writing. The beat recalls vibrations from the 90s clubs, while the rhymes mark a personal and proud territory. Powerful!
Kay – Vote 6.25 – Kay signs a summer and melancholy passage, where the voice remains absolute protagonist. The light beat accompanies a sound evolution that looks beyond gender boundaries, even without really daring. A shy step towards new directions.
Rondodasosa – Byron Messiah – vote 6.25 – A further step on the path of Rondodasosa, which weaves Italian and English on Caribbean sounds naturally and identity. The agreement with Byron Messia is strong and the result, although summer, avoids the clichés. Nothing new but we don’t mind the beat and the complex of the song. International breath!
Neza – Rhove – Vote 6.15 – Rhove da Rho arrives in Legnano and crosses Neza for a fun and well -built song, but that does not dare. The production is clean, the energy is not lacking, but everything remains within the boundaries already beaten. Good yield, but no surprise.
Niky Savage – Blssd – Lazza – Vote 6.15 – A piece that combines roughness and determination: Niky takes the scene with sharp bars and conviction, supported by Blssd and Lazza. Between clear vision and direct aptitude, the song is a declaration of intent without concessions.
Valentina Parisse – Albi Scotti – Vote 6.00 – A summer song with an energetic rhythm and Synth buttons. Pop and dance blend in a light but aware hymn, which celebrates female consent and self -determination with irony and delicacy.
Blackpink – vote 6.00 – Yes, yes, yes they are cute. The choreography are impeccable, the well -kept aesthetic, the attitude is not lacking. But the song slips away without leaving a trace: a patinated déjà-vu, which adds nothing to what has already been heard.
Edoardo Florio and Edouard Bielle – vote 6.00 – the two unite Italian and French in Romantic sauvagea poetic and timeless song. Between 70s atmospheres and spontaneous intimacy, the song is an elegant encounter between two related cultures and sensitivity.
Iperiixo – 5.50 vote – an intimate and ferocious outburst, a visceral story on the moment when a relationship breaks and leaves room only for emptiness. IPeriixo relies on a sharp and sincere writing, capable of oscillating between anger and melancholy. But maybe everything is not enough!
Villabanks – 5.00 vote – we are always to the usual: recycled lyrical clichés, predictable dynamics and a beat reggaeton already felt a thousand times. The song flows without leaving a trace, confirming a formula that is no longer surprising. Nothing new on the horizon.
