The first Music Monday of 2026 kicks off with Singer-songwriter Katzù Oso, who has released his new album La Conexión, out now on all platforms.
La Conexión is an immersive, cinematic exploration of human emotion, relationships, and self-discovery. The artist brings his visual storytelling background as a photographer into his music, with every track functioning like a moment suspended in time—capturing the raw beauty, pain, and complexity of life through sound. Through themes of transformation, love, loss, and introspection, Katzù crafts a narrative that is universally relatable yet deeply personal, blending elements of Latin pop, acoustic ballads, and cinematic instrumentation.
Ana Sky releases sultry dark pop track, “Love Sex Regret,” alongside an official visualizer shot by Ron Dadon (Grace VanderWaal, Zendaya, EMELINE). It was co-written with Dominique Vellutato and AC Burrell (Lady Gaga, Beyoncé, Jennifer Hudson), who also produced.
With a silky, soulful voice, Ana Sky entrances listeners with evocative melodies and work that are at once deeply personal, wise, and cathartic.
NYC promoter, producer, and violinist (played with Carl Cox, Alesso, Green Velvet, etc) – Kozlow has delivered a new single to the masses. He recently elevated his ANTHR FCKNG PARTY brand from event series to record label with the first single “Untitled.” The next one under AFP is titled “Cowboy Killers”.
The track was inspired by Stagecoach Music Festival, which Kozlow attended a few years ago, and a vocal backyard crow, which was “assisting” Kozlow while he was working on the track in his friend’s house’s backyard in Venice, CA.
MARIS shares “Christmas Now,” an original, bittersweet holiday track. She gets vulnerable with how the track is affects her.
“‘Christmas Now’ is a vulnerable song for me to release, but an important one. As I’ve grown up, the holidays have changed, and I haven’t felt that same Christmas spirit since childhood. I wanted to share a song that could be a cathartic soundtrack for those of us who spend the holidays on the verge of tears, fighting to feel that spirit, but noticing all of the ways it doesn’t exist anymore. My last Christmas was heartbreaking, and writing this song gave me a place to put those feelings. I hope it gives others a chance to feel seen and understood.”
