Pop Chart

Bridging electro pop and funky flavors, Pop Chart creates a bold, dreamy sound that leaves the listener feeling satisfied and hopeful.

On A Bender (Single)

An opening dream vocal hook gives way to urgent rap verses by Sharrod Sloans over crunchy indie electro punk track set in a chaotic club atmosphere.

In It For Me (Single)

Pressurized electronic pop production featuring Sharrod Sloans, huge pulsating club chorus with auto-tune vocal hook.

On The Run

Two tracks showing two sides of the same coin, On The Run (LMTL-034) hits the ground running with boisterous rap from prophpeezy.

Our Fallen City (Single)

Waves of emotion pour out of every word in a dynamic acoustic pop arrangement, Our Fallen City (LMTL-033) is a ballad for harder times.

The Way I Crash (Single)

All the blazing energy of a championship game, featuring confident and flowing rhymes and a soaring, hopeful vocal hook.

Hyperpop

As melodramatic as it is playful, Hyperpop is full of booming bass, futuristic synths, and uninhibited electronic percussion while vocoder-soaked vocals bounce off the walls.

Sparkle Folk

The possibilities feel endless with the uplifting, peaceful modern folk sounds of Sparkle Folk (OSPK-084). Utilizing the organic sounds of acoustic guitars and hand percussion, composer Philippe Bronchtein brings out the extra shine by adding tasteful touches of Hammond organ, pedal steel, and atmospheric electronics.

Under My Bed

Under My Bed (UND-58) takes the drama and angst of a teenage goth bedroom, adds some sparse pop production, and emerges from the darkness with a moody, haunting, seductive soundtrack that feels kind of bad…. in a good sort of way.

On Our Side

On Our Side (LMTL-030) adds a lovely touch of sincerity and reflection that rounds out a heartfelt journey, hitting on the lighter end of the pop spectrum.

Young & In Love

From naive promises to wistful memories to jealous minds, young love can really run the gamut of high highs and low lows. Throw in pop polish, a guest rap verse, and a mellotron that will give you a decent idea of what to expect on Young & In Love.

Modern Country vol. 2

Modern Country vol. 2 delivers a brilliant balance of shiny pop production and hooks, uplifting Laurel Canyon sounds, and that signature Nashville twang with tracks that can crossover into the pop stratosphere while retaining the feel of today’s wide-ranging country landscape.

Latin Pop

Signature reggaeton and Latin rhythms with carefully manicured, relatively minimal electronic textures and Latin percussion accents come together to captivate the senses, making this an adventurous, sensual, and occasionally chill addition to HypeKit.

Bright Colors & Smiles (EP)

Positivity springs forth from Bright Colors & Smiles (LMTL-024). The effortless melodies and folk instrumentation make this an easy win for stories that don’t have a care in the world.

In My Heart (EP)

It’s all smiles and sweetness on the second of two new EPs from Cherrypicked. The cloudy days of Untangle Me (LMTL-021) are gone and the sun is out on In My Heart (LMTL-022.)

Untangle Me (EP)

Emotionally charged vocal performances and minimal instrumentation encompass this EP of three simple, moving songs of acoustic pop.
