HIGHS & LOWS

- Alexander Jean -

Real love isn't always romantic dinners and grand declarations.

 

Sometimes it's arguing about the air conditioning, criticising each other's driving, and being driven completely insane by the person you adore.

Alexander Jean celebrates the wonderfully imperfect reality of loving someone for the long haul.

 

Warm, playful and reassuring, Highs & Lows is about choosing each other through the differences, disagreements and everyday annoyances — not only when loving someone is easy.

BELONG

- Mark Wilkinson -

Home is more than a place.

 

It holds our history, our memories, our joy and sometimes our deepest hurt.

Being expected to simply move on from somewhere woven into your identity can feel like being asked to leave part

of yourself behind.

 

Belong gives that feeling a tender but quietly resolute voice — reminding us that our roots matter, our feelings matter, and nobody else gets to decide where we belong.

SHELL

- MINOE -

Comparison can make even our own reflection feel like competition.

 

Shell sits inside the uncomfortable reality of measuring ourselves against other people — their bodies, achievements, confidence and seemingly effortless lives —

until everything we are begins to feel inadequate.

MINOE doesn't dress that insecurity up, confronting the exhausting pressure to be prettier, smaller, more successful or simply someone else.

Raw and painfully relatable, it's a reminder of just how easily comparison can make us forget the value of the person already inside our skin.

MY MOUTH (LA LA LA)

- ISHAN -

Trying to fit in can become exhausting when every conversation feels like an audition for acceptance.

Changing what we say — and sometimes who we are —

just to feel liked can leave us losing track of ourselves.

 

ISHAN captures that struggle with humour and honesty, questioning why acceptance should require becoming somebody else.

Playful yet reassuring, My Mouth reminds us that feeling comfortable in our own skin might take time, but believing we're already enough is a pretty good place to begin.

ILLUSIONS

- Grace Kinstler -

Sometimes freedom begins with admitting that the story we've been telling ourselves simply isn't true.

Fear, memory and expectation can distort reality until we're fighting monsters partly of our own making.

 

Grace Kinstler turns that realization into liberation, moving from self-deception and uncertainty towards the courage to finally let go.

Powerful and cathartic, Illusions celebrates the moment we stop clinging to what no longer serves us — and discover how much lighter life can feel when we finally allow ourselves to fly.

SLEEPWALKING

- Skinny Living -

Some moments are so profound they make the world we knew before them feel almost unreal.

Love can arrive with such force that everything shifts — colours seem brighter, ordinary rules disappear, and suddenly life feels like a dream we don't want to wake from.

 

Sleepwalking captures that overwhelming wonder through the experience of welcoming someone new into your world.

Dreamlike and deeply affectionate, Skinny Living reminds us that life's biggest arrivals can change not only what we love, but how we see everything around us.

SALEM WITCH

- Lilith Max -

History has never been particularly kind to people who refuse to stay quiet.

Drawing on the persecution of women branded as witches, Lilith Max turns an old symbol of fear into one of defiance.

 

Knowledge, independence and speaking your mind become the real sources of power here — especially when others would rather silence them.

Dark, fierce and unapologetic, Salem Witch is a battle cry for anyone who's ever been told to fall in line: you don't need to be a witch to know your power — or to speak the truth.

WONDER

- Spencer Sutherland -

Overthinking has a habit of turning unanswered questions into entire conversations inside our heads.

Caught between lingering feelings and uncertainty, Wonder lives in that restless space where we question a relationship, ourselves, and whether the other person is lying awake asking the same things.

 

Even familiar conversations begin to feel different when

doubt creeps in.

Soulful and vulnerable, Spencer Sutherland captures something deeply human: sometimes we don't have the answers — we just have to live with the wondering.

RECEIPTS

- CYNTA -

When something terrible happens, it's frighteningly easy to

blame ourselves.

 

But what we wore, drank or did is never an excuse for someone else's behaviour.

Receipts confronts the questions and accusations that shift responsibility back onto those already harmed, challenging the culture that leaves victims questioning themselves instead of the person responsible.

Raw and confronting, CYNTA puts accountability where it belongs — because there is no excuse.

- Rakhim, Khim, ayv1o -

Not every song needs to teach us something profound.

 

Sometimes we just need a beat, a little attitude, and an excuse to have some fun.

Designer names, money and unapologetic swagger fly past over a dark, addictive beat, with Fendi 2 fully embracing its own excess.

 

It's short, repetitive, ridiculously catchy —

and knows exactly what it is.

After everything else this month has asked us to feel and remember, perhaps we deserve a moment to simply turn it up and enjoy ourselves.
