When Mexican house duo Tom & Collins met singer and songwriter Rachel West during a visit to Los Angeles, the creativity just flowed. Together, after hours spent bouncing ideas off one another and experimenting in the studio, they released “Only One,” a gorgeous, funky gem that incorporates guitars and a thick, driving bassline.

Now, fans can feast their eyes on the official music video, which follows the journey of a mysterious celluloid phantom as it ventures out of a lush tropical forest and across different scenes of city life in Mexico. Across the adventure, one is forced to question just what the phantom figure might be and what it could be searching for – life? A new beginning? Home? Watch the video and decide for yourself.

German deep house maestra Pretty Pink continues to impress through the release of her bright summer soundtrack titled ‘CHANGE’ via her very own label, Wanderlust.

Indie-folk outfit Jared & The Mill have channeled the energy-charged emotion they funnel throughout everything they touch into their new video for “Break in the Ether.”

The song reinforces Billboard‘s notion that “Jared & The Mill often sing songs with messages of authenticity, open-mindedness, and acknowledgement of others’ opinions, similar to this song, which acts as an ode to their fans of living up to their capabilities and being who they imagine themselves to be.” Comprised of five best friends, bonded together by spending (possibly too much) time on the road, there is something unabashedly and unapologetically straightforward about how the collective approaches their life in music. The band has built their career championing open-mindedness and celebrating other people’s differences.
