Month In Review: August 2025

Hot new tracks from August!

August didn't just deliver—it crashed the party. ONErpm closed out summer with a bang, and your playlist should be feeling it.

Sir Chloe came swinging with Swallow the Knife—a gritty, emotionally charged alt-rock album that's as sharp as its title. Jack's Mannequin gave us Everything in Transit: Strings Attached, breathing new life into a classic with cinematic strings and all the feels. And Cochise? He's still on another planet—dropping genre-bending chaos that somehow works in the wildest way.

This month had range, heat, and serious replay value. If you missed any of it, now's the time to fix that. August came through—loud, weird, and unforgettable. Just how we like it.

Sir Chloe

Sir Chloe just unsheathed Swallow the Knife—11 razor-edged cuts of alt-rock released August 22 and already slicing through our brains in the best way. Pre-game with the snarling lead single “The Hole,” then let the newly dropped “Eyes” smooth things over before it all burns again. Next up: a 36-date North American headline tour kicking off Oct 7 in Albany and rolling through NYC (Webster Hall), Boston, Chicago, LA, and more.


Jack's Mannequin


Jack's Mannequin delivers a nostalgia bomb with Everything In Transit: Strings Attached. Out August 22, the EP reimagines five beloved tracks from their 2005 debut to celebrate the album's 20th anniversary. The project strips songs like Dark Blue, Holiday From Real, Bruised, I'm Ready, and The Mixed Tape down to piano, vocals, and lush string arrangements. The result is an intimate collection that transforms fan favorites into instant goosebumps.

Everything

Cochise just dropped DESIGNER—a blink-and-you-miss-it jolt of hyperactive swagger that sprints from first bar to fade-out. It's tight, loud, and built for instant replay. Out now with an official video to match—press play and let your speakers do the flexing. Make sure to check out the music video here and catch him live if he's rolling through your city...

One

Daya‘s new single Agnostic is a departure from her earlier sound, featuring a moodier, alternative pop style with a slick bassline, and lyrics exploring themes of lost faith in love after a breakup. 

Henry Morris

With raw honesty, Henry Morris unveils Church Bells, a track that captures the torment of love and absence. “Disfigured by either love, or no love. I can't live with or without you,” he confesses. Written to soften the weight of longing, the song resonates as both heartbreak and solace.

P2k Dadiddy

Dance & Party The Album delivers 13 tracks of authentic Southern Soul, mixing high-energy line dance anthems with smooth, late-night slow jams built for the liquor house. P2K Dadiddy shines with his gift for storytelling and party-starting charisma, crafting a soundtrack that feels like a full weekend in the South. From the first beat to the last note, the album celebrates good times, great music, and the true Southern Soul lifestyle.

Tyler Rich

Lost Time is a heartfelt ballad for every fight you wish you could take back, every door slammed, and every moment when pride stood in the way of reconciliation. Tyler Rich‘s last release captures the raw truth of relationships — that even in the middle of chaos, love can still be chosen. With stirring vocals and honest lyrics, it reminds us that sometimes the hardest step is the simplest one: apologizing before too much time slips away.

Tiara Tomas

A Hug is a raw and emotionally charged R&B track. It blends smooth vocals with sharp, rhythmic flows as Tiara shifts seamlessly between singing and rapping, showcasing the full scope of her artistry. A moody counterpoint to the sweetness of Kiss Me, the single channels anger, pettiness, and emotional exhaustion. It offers a darker glimpse into the rollercoaster of emotions shaping Tiara's upcoming album.

Yauz

Rockin is the latest chapter in Jauz's 2025 bass house journey. The track extends a string of high-energy releases that have fueled both festival main stages and underground clubs. Jauz once again fuses underground grit with mainstage appeal, crafting a peak-hour weapon designed for explosive crowd reactions
