NYC-based singer/songwriter Juletta wishes we’d slow down. Amidst the digital bustle of modern life, @juletta.online ’s ethereal pop music is a place of respite for weary travelers. Centered in personal reflection, her music invites listeners to acknowledge the everyday beauty that surrounds them.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ @thefader writes about her ability to turn “small intimacies into entire worlds.” ⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Written while 30,000 feet in the air, "Strawberry" tells the story of a life in flux, of a girl being pulled back and forth by what's ahead and what's behind. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Out now #ViaLevel — link in bio ⚡️⁠⠀ ⁠📷 @evazar

Singer/songwriter Kate Bollinger has come a long way in just a few months.

And with mentions in The New York Times and Atwood Magazine, it seems as if the world is one for the taking for this up-and-coming artist.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ So why is she thinking of failure?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ With an EP and several singles out via Level including the newest “No Other Like You,” Bollinger reflects on her recent rise, internet friendships, and the fear of losing.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Read via the Level blog — link in bio.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 📷 @ambcarpenter Creative direction & styling @sellyourhardtimes

LANNDS is the indie-electronic collaboration of Florida-based songwriter Rania Woodard and producer Brian Squillace. @iamlannds approaches songwriting with subtlety, relying on highly emotional arrangements to create a haunting sonic tapestry.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ “If Ur Scrollin Thru Tumblr” recounts Rania’s first relationship with another girl.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ “During the last few weeks together, I pondered on a few situations I knew would eventually make or break the relationship. I decided to stay in the dark for its entirety and wondered if things were different, could it have saved the relationship in the end.”⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Out now #ViaLevel — link in bio ⚡️⁠⠀

20-year-old rapper MAVI is a modern-day philosopher pondering existential questions through his head-spinning lines. @mavi4mayor ’s received praise from tastemakers such as Lyrical Lemonade, ELEVATOR, and Pitchfork which awarded “Let the Sun Talk” a 7.8.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Originally released as a 32-minute-long track on Soundcloud, “Let the Sun Talk” is a forceful statement of how self-actualization is in itself both spiritual and political. mavi elaborates, “It’s about putting yourself in the center of the universe.”⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Out now #ViaLevel — link in bio ⚡️⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 📷 @diexrich

Using the microphone of a camcorder to record, Austin Thomas started piecing together music in high school.
