Released earlier this month, Warp Threads is the latest offering from J. Mann—a dreamy, introspective indie-pop album that uses fashion not just as an aesthetic, but as a lens to explore identity, transformation, and everything we hide (or reveal) along the way. Across nine tracks, Mann blends layered textures, offbeat imagery, and emotional honesty to create something that’s both carefully constructed and gloriously unravelling. Be sure to explore the rest of the article and hear his latest album here.

With her heartfelt voice, tender lyrics, and a crystal-clear musical presence that echoes the spirit of Carole King and Sarah McLachlan, Alexandria, ON singer-songwriter Katie Ditschun returns with “In Your Arms,” the lead single from her EP There Will Be Flowers — both can be found online now. A graduate of Berklee College of Music, Ditschun is known for blending elements of pop, folk, jazz, and adult contemporary with remarkable sensitivity and soul. Be sure to go to the link and check out our interview with Katie Ditschun here.

British-born, France-based singer-songwriter Simon Scardanelli delivers a thunderous call to arms with his latest single, “Battle Ships,” a gritty and rebellious folk-rock anthem drawn from his forthcoming climate-themed folk-opera La Mer. Both defiant and mythic in tone, “Battle Ships” imagines a mythical race waging war against humankind in a last-ditch rebellion against our environmental destruction. Have a listen to the new single across all streaming platforms and through the link here.

Vancouver-based harpist, vocalist, and composer Elisa Thorn shares her latest single, “The Garden,” a gentle, nostalgic, and experimental folk track that reflects on memory, grief, and the inner landscape of the self across time. Inspired by a long-form sound collage Thorn created in 2021 called The Years In Between, “The Garden” explores the idea that all versions of ourselves – past, present, and future – exist within us simultaneously. Through this sonic meditation, Thorn invites listeners to reflect on the idea of traveling across time to nurture the inner child, commune with our ancestors, or simply sit with the stillness of self-discovery. Single is available to be heard in our article here.

For decades, the music industry thrived on contracts that kept artists from owning their own work, but those days are over. 98°, the multi-platinum, chart-dominating vocal group that soundtracked an era, is reclaiming their catalog and their career with their new album, Full Circle, out now through XOXO Entertainment Corp. A bold blend of past and present, the record features five brand-new tracks alongside re-recordings of their biggest hits, giving the group full ownership of the songs that helped define late ‘90s and early 2000s pop. Head on through the link here.

Hamilton’s most lovable weirdos, Doctor Tongue, are back with a brand-new single, “Higher,” out now via Jetpack Records. Blending funk rock, alternative, and soul with a poet’s heart and a glam-rock glint in the eye, the track is both a celebration of fantasy and a hard stare into the mirror. It’s seductive, surreal, and surprisingly heartfelt—like if Prince, Parliament, and the ghost of Carl Jung all split a cab home from band practice. This will be my final number one recommendation of the week, and you can listen here.
Those have been the best songs on the internet, it’s here on Canadian Beats!! Plus, so much more is on this website, so be sure to stay up-to-date. However, that is it for this week, so I hope you all found something you liked. If not, be sure to tune in next time when I bring you a list of the best music in my opinion on the web! But as always, I hope you spread the love and positivity in our world, I will continue to do the same. So as always, PEACE, LOVE, AND GOOD MUSIC EVERYONE!!
