Single Blackout Romance (Hellstring Edit) by Nexus feat

 

 

"Blackout Romance (Hellstring Edit)" is the clean version of a previously released explicit track. 

Inspired by a childhood friend who was trapped in a destructive relationship, this song carries a message beyond music. It speaks to everyone who knows the pain of being caught in a toxic love – the endless cycle of passion, hope, and despair. With dark orchestral layers and the emotional voice of Nova Grey, the track reflects this struggle and aims to give strength to those who might feel the same. 

 

Nexus was founded in 2024 and represents the current songs such as Blackout Romance and further upcoming releases. The project emerged as a spin-off from CoolCatSound, which Guido Odendahl originally started in 2023 together with his daughters as a side project.  His musical roots go back much further: In the early 1990s he founded the label Music in time and released his first electronic tracks. In 1991, his track “GPF 497” appeared on the compilation Techno Modulator Vol. 1 (Ohrwurm Records) – at that time already on CD, which was considered progressive for the electronic scene. In parallel, he worked in sound design and audio programming, including a collaboration with the Fraunhofer Institute on a 3D audio technology for stereo headphones, where he was co-holder of a patent.  Until 2017, he lived in North Rhine-Westphalia (Germany); since then, he has been based in the Allgäu region (Germany), where he lives with his children. He was married, is now divorced, and continues his artistic work from there.  The releases of Nexus are distributed via RecordJet / Neighbouring Rights. Musically, Nexus moves between cinematic synth layers, electronic structures, and intense emotions. Alongside instrumental works, songs with vocals are also created – sometimes performed by himself, but preferably in collaboration with female vocalists.

The Davidson Trio

 

The Davidson Trio is a hard rocking power trio based in Birmingham and the West Midlands in the UK.

The band is led by Owen Davidon, the bass playing and 5 octave vocalist (formerly with Uli Jon Roth & Rumour).

Guitarist Ben Bicknell was Davidson’s fellow band member in the Glenn Hughes tribute called Black Country Community, while the band is powered by exciting new discovery Ellis Brown on drums.

The band’s debut recording ‘Cougar’, is an old school album given a contemporary makeover, with cracking songs, seamless interplay, bursting solos and Davidson soulful vocals.

*It has already hit #7 on the getreadytorockradio.com weekly chart, and #28 on the IBBA blues chart.

As Owen explains: "This album is a return to my rock-blues and funk roots. I was always into guitarists like Jeff Beck, while in my early career I supported Trapeze, and I always liked the idea of a power trio.

I also was influenced by bass players like Stanley Clarke, Victor Wooten and of course Glenn Hughes. 

So having met Ben and Ellis, I wanted to write the best possible songs in a power trio format.

I'd like to think that with this album we have achieved that."

'Cougar' is a powerhouse rock blues album with sharp riffs, booming solos and catchy hooks.

St. Doval

 

Todays music comes from Canadian rocker St Doval who has sent through his latest release "Kids Of Our Time" from his first solo mini album "Catching Starlight" This is a very much a solo project, all the writing and performance, other than the drums are handled by the man himself. The track seems to deal with the coming of age that we all go through, the reality of you`ve now got to deal with the outside world and finding your way through the uncertainties that face us all in the world today.

St. Doval is the rock project of Toronto-based singer, songwriter, guitarist, and producer J.C.Sandoval. Blending the soaring choruses and gritty guitars of ’90s alternative rock with emotionally direct lyrics, his music resonates with fans looking for both catharsis and connection. J.C.’s career includes national and international tours, collaborations with acclaimed artists, and a deep commitment to crafting songs that speak to the human experience.

Sonic Whip

 

So the young Dutch trio are back with a short, but sweet new single called "Survive", which was released last Friday the 19^th September.

"Our new single, “Survive”, is a raw and honest reflection on the dynamics of friendships: the clashes, confrontations and reconciliations that seem to return again and again in an endless cycle. We recorded this new single in a completely remote studio in Belgium, together with producer Michael Smith (Wolf Alice, The Saints, among others).

 

Last year, we played throughout all of the Netherlands and beyond, rocked big Dutch festivals such as Zwarte Cross and Huntenpop  and played big rock festivals in the UK like Firevolt Rock Festival and Wokingham Festival. This year we crossed the North Sea for the fourth time for another UK tour, where we won two Radio Wigwam Awards for “Best International Band” and “Best Live Act”."

Performing to a packed-out room, Lydia’s musical storytelling was an absolute highlight of the weekend, generating great reactions and instant acclaim from the crowd. Lydia also recently played an acclaimed set at the Mcr1 Festival and will soon be announcing a headline show for 2026.

Both ear-wormingly catchy and lyrically inspirational, this incredibly infectious track mixes dance-pop with a hint of country, is ideal for fans of Mika, Marina, Dua Lipa or Morgan Wallen and is the perfect anthem to close out the summer! Lydia’s stunning soul-style vocal takes centre stage immediately, belting out a song which is not only hi-energy and highly danceable but also a testament to personal empowerment, authenticity and self-confidence. The track wears its hear firmly on its sleeve, telling the listeners that ‘I can look like this, I can look like that, it doesn’t matter either way cos I exist for me’ before urging everyone to ‘be your own person, live your life for you’. Pairing meaningful messages with a tune that sends your spirits soaring, The Way We’re Rollin’ is guaranteed to get you listening, singing (and dancing) along whilst constantly nodding in affirmation!

 

Lydia’s own story is as compelling as her music! Formerly lead singer of teenage alt-rock band Sudell Cross, Lydia has not only played Main Stage at England’s largest free music festival, Darwen Live, but has performed headline local shows at the iconic King George’s Hall, Blackburn. In 2024, she was also lucky enough to sing pre-match at Leigh Leopards stadium to over 8000 rugby league fans! Describing her music as Power Pop, with its dynamic vibes, explosive vocal riffs and stunning mixing & production (from the expertise of celebrated North West studio Club Haus),Lydia already has a banging set of energy-infused tracks ready to release throughout 2025 and 2026, and is anticipating a fantastic year.

Touch the Buffalo

 

Touch the Buffalo is the missing link in the evolutionary chain between 20th-century rock and 21st-century rock. Born out of the vibrant DMV music scene, the band blends raw alternative energy, grunge grit, and modern rock hooks into a sound that’s both nostalgic and refreshingly new. Formed in 2016, Touch the Buffalo began as a stripped-down duo and has since grown into a powerhouse band. Together they’ve carved out a reputation for high-energy live shows, inventive arrangements, and unexpected twists—like their signature distorted ukulele. 

With two EPs and a full-length album under their belt, Touch the Buffalo has built steady momentum in the DMV and beyond. They’ve won local Battle of the Bands competitions, earned radio play, and shared festival stages with national acts including Sugar Ray, Good Charlotte, Gin Blossoms, and Jimmy’s Chicken Shack. Along the way, they’ve stayed rooted in the community that shaped them, playing beloved venues across Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. 

Touch the Buffalo isn’t here to imitate— they’re here to evolve. Their music nods to the past while charging head-first into the future, delivering songs that are gritty, melodic, and undeniably alive. ”Nerd Love” is about the search for a deep, genuine connection between two people who embrace both their imperfections and their shared humanity. ”Nerd Love” is built on mutual respect and adventure. At its core, its a love letter from one dreamer to another — a celebration of finding someone who accepts you completely, flaws and all, in a world that often feels digital and distant.
