Higher by N-Trance

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Back in the 90s, there was a British dance pop group called N-Trance that filled dancefloors around the world with their hits "Set You Free" (with Kelly Llorenna), "Stayin' Alive" (with Ricardo da Force), and "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?" (featuring Rod Stewart). Now N-Trance is back with their first new music in 20 years and their new song is called "Higher."


"Higher" is a piano-led pop dance song with an edge. The two female vocalists do a great job on the chorus. The music video features the group with a Delorean that looks like it is from the movie Back To The Future. We've added the music video to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"Higher" was written and produced by Kevin O'Toole. It available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.


Electronic pleasure,
—Sausi O'Sullivan

Bred by Ladsclub x Bearly Disco

Dear Poptastic Readers,

We heard this dark dance song with funny lyrics and thought it would be a fun feature. The song is called "Bred" by Ladsclub x Bearly Disco. You might remember that Bearly Disco produced "He's My Boy" by RetroPopBoy x Bazz. 



"Bred" has very tongue-in-cheek lyrics. It is a play on the words "bread" and "bred." Hopefully you know the difference. If not, look it up! The music is aimed directly at the dancefloor at a dark club, and this song is sultry! We've added the visualizer to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"Bred" was written by Greg Fowler and Ed Taub. It was produced by Bearly Disco, Greg Fowler and Ed Taub. It available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.


Don't forget to get ...

Rise Up by Passoe

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Last year, we featured a song called "Digital Love" by John-Paul Moule. Well, he contacted us that he is now the lead singer of Passoe. Their latest song is called "Rise Up."


"Rise Up" is dance pop track that has that Eurodance sound so reminiscent of the early 2000s. The lyrics are about being true to yourself and standing up for yourself. We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"Rise Up" was written by John-Paul Moule and Carl Lindmark. There is a nice remix package. It available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.


Rise up now,
—Albert Green

My Roots by Clara Mae

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Swedish artist Clara Mae has a new album out called My Roots. The country pop album contains some songs that we have already featured in Poptastic Confessions before: "The Player", "No Jolene", "Tennessee", "Growing Pains", and "Once In A While" with Josh Breaks.


The latest single from the album is "Never Been Yours" is a duet with Bob John Holt. He takes the first verse and chorus. Clara has the second verse and they both join in from there. The music video features them standing out in the cold with lots of snow behind them. Brrr. We've added the music video to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


The rest of the album is has the country pop feel to it, and it is quite an enjoyable listen. The standouts to us were: "Still", "Happy Birthday", "Edward Scissorhands", and "Doris." We also liked the Intro and Outro of "My Roots." This is a deep album with lots of lyrical content, as Clara is quite the storyteller. Have a listen to the album here ...



"Never Been Yours" was written by Clara Mae, Johan Lindbrandt, and Jens Hult. It was produced by Johan Lindbrandt. We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...



Not sad anymore,
—Davearama

Feel You On The Dancefloor by Rikky Disco

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Sweden's disco duo Rikky Disco are back with their first new song of 2026 and it is called "Feel You On The Dancefloor." You might remember their singles from last year: "I Want You Back" (#7 in our Top 101 Songs of 2025) and "Expectations" (#26 in our Top 101 Songs of 2025).


"Feel You On The Dancefloor" is quite different to their previous songs. This is giving us "I Feel Love" by Donna Summer vibes. There is something very dark and sultry about this song. We love it. There isn't a music video, lyric video, or visualizer at this time, so we've added the official audio to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"Feel You On The Dancefloor" was written and produced by Christian Jonson and Fanny Wahlqvist (aka Rikky Disco). It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.


Feel it,
—Davearama

Starlight and All I Need by Cannons

Dear Poptastic Confessions, 

Los Angeles indie band Cannons are back with a new dreamy single called "Starlight." However, they released another song called "All I Need" in October! We missed it. D'oh! Better late, than never. Both songs are from their forthcoming album Everything Glows.


Let's start off with their most recent single "Starlight." It is so smooth and it has a boogie! Easy to get lost in all the layers here. The beat will have you spinning around the room in no time. We've added the music video to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


And for the song we missed in October, "All I Need" starts off very much a ballad. A beat comes and picks up the tempo, but it still sounds like a ballad. This is a tears-on-the-dancefloor moment. We've also added the official visualizer to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


Both "Starlight" and "All I Need" were written and produced by Michelle Lewis, Paul Davis, and Ryan Clapham (aka Cannons). They are available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copies today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.


Fire for you,
—Sausi O'Sullivan

Iconic by A*Teens

Dear Poptastic Readers,

In 1999, the Swedish group A*Teens released their debut album The ABBA Generation. Yes, they were a group of Swedish teenagers (2 females, 2 males) who sang cover versions of ABBA songs. For their second album in 2001, they dropped the ABBA songs. A third album followed in 2002. In 2004, they released their greatest hits album, which included 13 singles, and then they disbanded. Now, they have reunited for Sweden's Melodifestivalen with a new song called "Iconic." Their first new music in 22 years! 


"Iconic" is a brilliant piece of pop music and the vocals from A*Teens sound great. We are happy that the vocals are shared amoung all 4 members. They performed at Melodifestivalen on Saturday, and they got through to the final. Congratulations! We've added their performance to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...




"Iconic" was written by Dino Medanhodzic, Jimmy Jansson, Lina Hansson, Moa Carlbecker, and Tomas G-Son. It was produced by Dino Medanhodzic, Tomas G-Son, and Jimmy Jansson. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.


Upside down,
—Sausi O'Sullivan
