Future History by Carda & Jack Newsome

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Australian artist Carda took a break from releasing music last year, but he has been very busy behind the scenes. He relocated to London and now has a fresh new outlook on music. His new single with Jack Newsome is called "Future History."

"Future History" is a glorious slice of dance pop. It has infectious hook, and the lyrics are about being in love. This is our first time hearing Jack Newsome, and his vocals are great. This is a fantastic restart for Carda, and we love it! The music video features Jack and Carda in space suits at sunset having a great time. We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"Future History" was written by Adrian Cardamone, Jack Newsome, and Emily Falvey. It was produced by Carda, and Joakim Jarl. It was mixed by Hayden Laursen. It was mastered by Bruno Gruel. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.


Back to you,

Welcome To My Head and Where The River Runs by Barry Harris' Kon Kan

Dear Poptastic Readers,

In April, we featured 2 new songs by Barry Harris's Kon Kan. Well, today we also featured 2 new songs by them! Their latest songs are "Welcome To My Head" and "Where The River Runs." These follow "Not This One" and "My Medication."


"Welcome To My Head" is the latest single and it is an uplifting dance pop track. There are some talking vocals, but it is not your standard singing track with verses and choruses. We quite like this, as it just makes you feel good. We've added the lyric video to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


And now for their previous single ...


"Where The River Runs" is like your standard pop song with an acoustic flavor. It has a big chorus. The lyrics are about taking control of your life. We've also added the lyric video to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"Welcome To My Head" was written by Barry Harris and Christopher Cox. It was produced by Barry Harris. "Where The River Runs" was written by Barry Harris and Bob Mitchell. It was produced by Barry Harris and Bryan Harris. Both are available for purchase on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copies today. We've added them to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.


I beg your pardon,
—Sausi O'Sullivan

New Position and You Can Try Me by Tom Aspaul

Dear Poptastic Readers,

We just saw that Tom Aspaul has a new song out called "New Position." And then we saw that he had released a song called "You Can Try Me" in May and we missed it! D'oh! Better late than never!

"New Position" is the new song, and it is quite the fun pop song. It's a bit electro funky with a great melody. The lyrics are about wanting something new and different. The chorus will have you singing along in no time. We really like it. We've added the official audio to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


And now for the song we missed ...

"You Can Try Me" is a bit darker, but just as melodic. The lyrics are about being attracted to someone. This a very sexy song, and we are here for it. We've also added the official audio to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"New Position" and "You Can Try Me" were both written and produced by Tom Aspaul and Gil Lewis. They were mastered by Pete Maher. They are available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copies today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.


That girl,

The Last Time by Solid HarmoniE

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Solid HarmoniE are back with a brand-new track! HOORAY! The new song is called "The Last Time" and it is a cover originally done by Sheelah in 2011This follows the Nils van Zandt remix of "I'll Be There For You", their Christmas song "Once Again It's Christmas", and their 2025 version of "Circus." 


"The Last Time" starts off a bit somber as the lyrics are about the last time being with a lover. Then the glorious chorus hits and the tempo gets faster. Singers Melissa, Rebecca, and Elisa give some pretty powerful vocals here. We quite like this. We've added the official audio to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"The Last Time" was written by Tony Nilsson, Emma Lewin, and Ferdinand Skead. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.

Still Got Time by MC4D & Clara Mae

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Last week, while featuring Clara Mae's new song called "The One" with Ferris Pier, we saw that she had a song out in April with brother duo MC4D called "Still Got Time." We missed it! D'oh! Better late than never!


"Still Got Time" starts off sounding acoustic with Clara's soaring vocals. There is a glorious build in the music that leads to the chorus. There are lots of changes in the music making for an exciting, emotional listen. We quite like this. There is a music video, but Clara isn't in it. Instead, one of the brothers lipsyncs her vocals. We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"Still Got Time" was written by Clara Mae, Corey Sanders, Fraser Churchill, Ross Copperman, Christopher Drake, and Matthew Drake. It was produced by MC4D and Ross Copperman. It was mastered by Mason Levy. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...



Emotions,

Just For The Night by Italove featuring Luzan

The music video is mostly in black and white with splashes of colors. We've added the video to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"Just For The Night" was written by Mats Rubarth, Martin Blix, and Daniel Campos. It was produced by Mats Rubarth and Jimmy Akerfors. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.

Mazaa by Meira Omar & LIAMOO + Dooset Darem

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Afghan-born Swedish artist Meira Omar is back with a new song called "Mazaa." It is a duet with Swedish artist LIAMOO. You might remember that we have previously featured Meria's songs "Hush Hush" and "Meri Jaan." We just saw that she had a song out in February and we missed it! D'oh! We'll get it it below.

"Mazaa" translates to "fun" and that is exactly what this song is! The middle eastern rhythms mixed with the gorgeous melody that Swedes are famous for makes for a wonder experience. Both Meira and LIAMMO sound great. We absolutely love the chorus. The music video is absolutely spectacular. We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

And now for Meira's song that we missed ...

"Dooset Daram" loosely translates to "I Love You." This was actually in Sweden's Melodifestivalen this year, and it made it to the final round. We remembered it but forgot to feature it. Whoopsie! This mid-tempo track is filled with rhythms and melodies that just make you want to dance and sing along. We've added Meira's performance at Melodifestivalen to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"Mazaa" was written by Meira Omar, LIAMOO, Marcus Svedin, Linnea Deb, and Paul Rey. It was produced by Marcus Svedin. "Dooset Daram" was written by Meira Omar, Anderz Wrethov, Laurell Barker, and Jimmy Thörnfeldt. It was produced by Anderz Wrethov. Both songs are available for purchase on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copies today. We've added them to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.
