Sombr – “Potential”: Sombr is currently in California, after performing at Coachella’s first weekend and preparing to finish his time in the desert during the second weekend. During his debut performance, he introduced the live debut of a new song titled “Potential,” and on April 17, he officially released the track.
The release includes a cinematic music video. Sombr shared on Instagram, “My new single ‘Potential’ is out now with a music video that could potentially be my best one yet. Love you so very much. I’m so proud of this.”
This release comes shortly after Sombr announced a major tour featuring support acts such as Interpol, King Princess, and Dove Cameron, among others.
ILLENIUM, Ellie Goulding – “Don’t Want Your Love”: GRAMMY-nominated electronic artist ILLENIUM has released the official music video for his emotionally charged single “Don’t Want Your Love” with global pop icon Ellie Goulding, out now via Republic Records.The track serves as a centerpiece from his chart-topping album ODYSSEY, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Albums chart. The single was the first track identified for the album and helped set the tone for the project’s expansive sonic direction. The record was co-written by Charli XCX, Albert Hype, and Lost Boy, underscoring its strong crossover appeal.
Lewis Capaldi – “Stay Love”: Global superstar Lewis Capaldi has released “Stay Love,” a heartfelt new track from his highly praised 2025 Survive EP. The Scottish singer-songwriter premiered the emotional ballad during a free pop-up performance at Penn Station yesterday, before featuring it in his largest U.S. headline show to date at Madison Square Garden last night. This marks an exciting highlight early in his most ambitious North American tour yet.
The Chainsmokers – “Echo (ft. Oaks)”: When The Chainsmokers release a new track, expectations are always sky-high—but every so often, they surpass the polished EDM formula and create something truly impactful. Their latest song, “Echo,” is exactly that: emotionally intense, melodically euphoric, and deeply immersive. It’s the kind of track that doesn’t just make an impression—it stays with you. Honestly, it ranks among their very best work to date.
There’s also something undeniably special about their creative synergy with Winona Oak (aka Oaks). Having first teamed up on “Hope,” the magic clearly remains—and has only grown stronger. “Echo” feels like a natural evolution of their musical connection, enhanced by time, experience, and a shared talent for emotional storytelling.
Oaks shares, “This song was born in the most magical environment in Norway with some of my favorite people and co-writers—Håvard Sundland, Axel Lindroth, Mads Bjørsvik Songve, and Fred Well. Hearing The Chainsmokers’ production for the first time was incredible—they truly brought it to another level. It’s beautiful and full-circle working with them again after our collaboration eight years ago on ‘Hope.’ This song captures that overwhelming feeling of falling—when everything feels electric and there’s no escaping it, no matter how hard you try.”
The Kid LAROI – “I CONDEMN”: Just after making a surprise appearance during Justin Bieber’s Coachella set, The Kid LAROI drops a new single titled “I CONDEMN,” accompanied by an official music video. This is his first release since his January album, BEFORE I FORGET, and it comes ahead of his A PERFECT WORLD TOUR, starting April 27.
TOMORA – “SOMEWHERE ELSE”: Tom Rowlands of The Chemical Brothers and AURORA have released a new single together under their collaborative project, TOMORA. Titled “SOMEWHERE ELSE,” the track premiered on Zane Lowe’s Apple Music show, accompanied by an interview between the duo and the host. The song is also accompanied by an official music video directed by Adam Smith and S T A R T !.
Zerb, Rita Ora – “If Its Not Love”: Brazilian producer Zerb and pop star Rita Ora have launched their latest collaboration, “If It’s Not Love,” today.
The release follows a demanding period for Zerb, who achieved success with tracks like “Mwaki,” “Addicted,” and “Location,” while juggling tours, travel, and studio sessions. He has shared that he took a temporary step back to reflect and concentrate on his creativity, spending four months between São Paulo and Los Angeles.
Zerb described “If It’s Not Love” as one of the most meaningful projects he’s worked on, highlighting the deep emotion conveyed through both the lyrics and the production.
