Playlist Highlight: Songscope

If you are hankering for a shortcut to today’s irresistible grooves, SONGSCOPE’s “Rising Beats” is where you need to head. This playlist doesn’t just chase trends, it gives the people what they want. Yes, you’ll find chart-toppers like Dove Cameron, Kendrick Lamar and Offset, but nestled among those household names are fresh voices demanding your attention.

Take “In California” by Eddie Witz and The Most High: a sunburst of optimism. Bright guitar riffs shimmer like heat-haze on asphalt, while an irresistible hook carries the bittersweet ache of reluctant goodbyes. You can almost taste the salt air and feel the gentle pull between staying and letting go.

Then there’s Allegra’s “Refund,” a pop judge, jury, and executioner. On-beat verses build tension like coiled springs, only to burst in a chorus drenched in neon defiance. She’s done playing, she wants compensation for every moment she ever wasted.

Finally, Terra Cognita’s “T.O.M” eases you into a dream. The melody drifts like clouds across your mind, mirroring the restless whirl of anxious thoughts and offering a momentary oasis of calm. It’s the soundtrack to that elusive quest for inner peace.

Though “Rising Beats” spotlights the viral hits lighting up TikTok, it's there for discovery too. Emerging artists outnumber the superstars here. In fact, they make up the majority of the set list.
