The Flow

Linda Rao, auteure, compositrice, interprète et Dj suisse d’origine italienne, se révèle à travers un nouvel album intitulé "On s’en fout !", sorti en mai 2026.

Pour la création, elle collabore étroitement avec un ami de longue date, le guitariste Florent Bernheim, également compositeur et arrangeur ! Un doux mélange électrisant !

À travers des textes profondément personnels, Linda se dévoile sans filtre. L’album est un voyage intérieur, né de la nuit, du bruit, des silences et des cicatrices laissées par le temps. Son inspiration puise autant dans ses propres failles que dans les rencontres, les visages et les histoires de celles et ceux qui la touchent au plus profond.

Elle y chante l’amour et la passion, la liberté et le désir, la chute et la renaissance. Mais aussi la frustration, l’addiction, la tristesse. Et toujours, en filigrane, l’espoir : cette force qui pousse à se relever et à croire encore aux rêves.

Chaque titre est une confession, oscillant entre rage et fragilité, portée par des sonorités rock et électro, brutes mais élégantes.

Un album viscéral et sincère, qui ne cherche pas à plaire, mais à dire vrai.

Elona Joules - the new girl in town. The singer-songwriter from Davos now living in Nyon crosses the border between German- and French-speaking Switzerland in real life as much as in her musical universe, blending French attitude and nonchalance with German honesty and bluntness. Just to escapes both worlds through a third language: English, the mother of her childhood fairytales.

Loud lyrics and hearty hooklines define her style, that really hasn't any. And if you search for deeper meaning you probably won't find it - just let it be, as Paul McCartney said.

ARMANDO, 16 years old, is a new voice in the Italian rap scene.

Young, yes. But with a mindset far beyond his age.

He writes about what he lives, with no filters: the streets, emotions, and the truth.

A direct flow, powerful bars that hit hard and stay with you.

“Ricorderai” is only the beginning.

He doesn’t follow trends. He’s building his own path.

It’s not just music. It’s something that stays with you.

She has been making music since childhood. After many small projects and a long time in a band, Bezzy is now taking her own path as a solo artist. With «Ghost of You», she is releasing her first EP on vinyl.

On 7 November, she will celebrate her debut with a full-length concert at Kulturmühle Horw. Her songs are full of longing, tragedy, joy... In short: full of emotion. She opens her musical diary and reveals her soul. Sometimes in English, sometimes in Swiss German. But always pure and honest, wrapped in catchy melodies that move you.

BYE BYE MAXWELL is what happens when film composers pick up guitars and synths and start a band. Hailing from Bern, they blend indie pop, electro rock and cinematic soundscapes — music that moves between intimacy and widescreen power.

Their first release, «Überau», is a collaboration with Bernese rapper Nativ, and the title song of the original Sky series «The Belonging».
Their debut album arrives this autumn, produced by Marty Hailey at Metro 13 Music Studio in Edinburgh.

klingt als hätten Coldplay und Avril Lavigne eine Grunge Band gegründet. Brasilianischer Indie-Rock-Shoegaze Artist.

Müde vom Leben in der reichsten Stadt der Welt stürzt sich DÍAZ in den Untergrund Londons. Nach Wochen exzessiven Eintauchens in den Clubs der Musikhauptstadt zieht er sich monatelang zurück in ein altes viktorianisches Stadthaus um dort seinen Dämonen zu begegnen. Unterstützt vom Zusam- menleben mit der 80-Jährigen Hausherrin und einem Teenager Modestuden- ten kämpt er sich aus seiner Depression. DíAZ experimenZert mit zeitgenös- sischen Sounds Londons und kommt zurück in die Schweiz mit Musik die klingt als hätten Coldplay und Avril Lavigne eine Grunge Band gegründet.

Ende 2022 fanden Niculin und Sandro in Stephen das fehlende Puzzleteil – und damit den Sound, von dem sie lange geträumt hatten. Mit den ersten Studioaufnahmen Ende 2025 wurde Rastò III offiziell ins Leben gerufen. Seither steht das Trio für selbstgeschriebene Songs in der vierten Landessprache Rätoromanisch – genauer gesagt im Idiom Vallader.

Megges gained attention with the sarcastic anti-war song “Der Dritte”, which became an insider tip on Spotify and social media. With the single “Tanz”, international breakthrough in the independent scene followed: more than 1,000 international radio airplays, number 9 in the European Independent Music Charts, and a widely acclaimed music video created with the Bamberg Marionette Theatre introduced the artist to a broader audience for the first time. In addition, the single entered the Top 10 of the German iTunes rock and pop charts.

Live, Megges and his band develop a distinctive combination of intensity and closeness to the audience. More than 50 concerts have taken the formation across Germany and Switzerland, including Berlin, Basel, Bern, and Bamberg. Megges was also part of the “Weise & Leise” festival series presented by the music magazine musix.

The band’s international line-up has a clearly audible influence on its sound: between alternative rock, singer-songwriter influences, and poetic German-language lyrics, a sonic identity with strong recognizability emerges.

Megges is currently working with his band on their debut album, scheduled for release in autumn 2026. Preparations are already underway for further tours and support shows with nationally known acts.

Depuis janvier 2026, Disarray est projet solo de grunge-indus-gaze de Lausanne. Je suis actuellement en train de composer et d'enregistrer un second album.

Inspirée par la scène musicale alternative des années 1990 et début 2000, mes morceaux traversent des univers variés et traitent de thématiques sociétales comme les relations, le sexisme ou encore l’anxiété face au turbo capitalisme et ses métastases.

Me produire sur scène est l’une des motivations premières de ma démarche créative et je prends un réel plaisir à partager ma musique de cette façon.

Raw rock energy driven by a mischievous female voice: Walldown didn’t come here to apologize. Since bursting onto the scene in late 2019, the band has been setting stages ablaze with its untamed energy, explosive power, and bold, uncompromising attitude.

Hello everyone,
My name is Lea Maksimovic, though many know me as Leasmaksi.
I’m a 18 year-old singer from near Aarau, Switzerland.

On August 15, 2025 I released my first song ,,Another Time’‘ on Spotify. Soon, ,,hazel eyes‘’ will also be released on Spotify.

“hazel eyes” is an emotional indie/soft pop track written during a time of deep confusion and uncertainty in love. The song explores the inner conflict between closeness and distance — the feeling of being drawn to someone while knowing, deep down, that it may only be an illusion.

With gentle melodies and a vulnerable, honest atmosphere, “hazel eyes” captures that in-between phase where emotions feel real but are hard to explain. The lyrics are personal and direct, carried by a calm,production that leaves space for emotion.

The song is for anyone who has ever found themselves in an unclear romantic situation — caught between hope, doubt, and the desire for clarity.

What happens when a group of friends with a shared love for music decide to go beyond playing cookie-cutter cover songs? You get GarageBand! Born out of passion and a refusal to settle for the ordinary, this band has been making noise (the good kind) since 2005.
We’re more than just a cover band. Sure, we love reimagining classics, but we’ve also embraced the thrill of writing our own music. Our creative process? Picture a garage filled with laughter, weird sound experiments, and a few beers.
For us, it’s all about having fun and perfecting our sound in the rehearsal room. Whether it's a fiery riff, heartfelt lyrics, or a groove you can’t resist, GarageBand is here to bring the vibes.

Stay tuned – this journey is just getting started!

Frech! :)
