‘The Journey’ - The Octopus Division

  ‘The Journey’ - The Octopus Division In ‘The Journey,’ a sonic mosaic unfolds that—permeated by neon-soaked synth pads and a melody that feels like memory—is less a song than a spiritual compass. The time that relentlessly pursues us, according to ‘Time keeps chasing us every day’, is not portrayed as an enemy, but as a constant touchstone that we face with our heads held high: ‘ We won't let the rain wash us away’ . Photography, here metaphorically as a key to the past, opens doors to moments that seem long gone but live on within us. The chorus – a kind of collective mantra – describes not just a journey, but an intertwining of stories that support each other. The garden in which hopes take root becomes a symbol of what must be nurtured in order to flourish. And when ‘ our songs have lost a note or two ’, it is not a flaw, but proof of lived depth.

Don’t Miss These Five Amazing New Songs

Five New Songs You Need to Hear Right Now

If you are bored of your old playlist, you need to check out these five new songs from different genres and styles. Whether you want a love song, a punk rock anthem, or a liquid drum and bass groove, we've got you covered with this list.


Noise Factory United - "Southsea Common"

This band rocks a new twist on song writing by tackling the fallout of today's troubles and trials instead of just navel-gazing. They mix punk, disco, and shoe gaze to craft songs that look back and forth, and that might give you a break and a boost from the daily humdrum.

Ubiquity Machine - "Beautiful Girl"

This is a love song with a new spin unheard before. The band, raved as the son of the Smiths and Rolling Stones by Indie O'Clock, fuses rock and indie into a post-genre sound that shines. The lyrics stitch love, loneliness, change, redemption and even the devil, showing that love is not a plain thing, but a mirror of the lover and the loved.

psykhi - "Dyed In Wool"

This is the title track of psykhi's new EP, Forest People, which was sparked by the clash of exploring the patterns of human brain and behaviour while also pondering on the musician's own life. The Ghanaian talent is intensely reflective and that reflectiveness is evident through every beat of his punk, indie, rock, and rap mixed EP, which features five tracks of pure expression.

The West Order - "Girl Without A Name"

This new single was crafted back in 2017 by the band's vocalist and guitarist Dylan and since then The West Order have been polishing the song as a group. The song probes deep self-doubt, which is dissected in the verses and firmly left behind in the chorus. The band, whose journey was hindered by the global pandemic, is now eager to fulfill their dreams with this dazzling new single.

Matt Saxton - "Freedom"

This song is about the longing to leave oneself, even for a fleeting instant, while under the strain of low mood and depression. Despite its somber theme, the song is animated by an uplifting liquid drum and bass rhythm, pulsing keyboards, vocal harmonies and distorted bass guitar. The song is a testament to the power of music to lift one's spirits and offer some freedom.
