9. Caye- Scars
LA-based artist/producer/songwriter, Caye releases his new single, “SCARS.” Written and produced by Caye himself, “SCARS” reflects on how we are constantly rushing through life, focusing on moving from one thing to the next but never taking time to look around and live in the moment, per a press release.“This project as a whole took me years to finish,” says Caye. “Years that I could have spent working at a hedge fund, selling my soul for a comfortable financial life. Still, I put hour after hour into this, hoping it would one day pay off. The constant pulls of a business-driven world, financial stressors, and social media are plagues to the creative mind. ‘SCARS’ is about working so hard on your dreams, but to no avail. The song is called ‘SCARS,’ not ‘CUTS,’ to emphasize the healing that accompanies pain.”

Multi-platinum DJ/producer DJ Snake returns with his new single “Nightbird.” On “Nightbird,” DJ Snake ventures into a strain of house music that’s playful with a catchy hook.
