Sook-Yin Lee Sets The Pace 🫀

72 beats per minute is considered the normal resting heart rate for adults. The meditative tempo guides Lee’s new album, '72RHR,' where every song is built around the beat.

The music moves through many arcs, Lee explains. There's areas of meditation, but also a lot of upheaval. "A meditation is difficult—it's as difficult as life. It's never easy. It's never sublime."

Prado Monroe is the Mission 🚀

There’s a moment in the videos from last year’s Boiler Room event in Vancouver where Prado Monroe looks completely in her element, a crowd of strangers shouting her lyrics back at her like they’ve known her for years.

Before that night, Prado had already been building momentum in a way that doesn’t follow any traditional path — ghostwriting for rappers on Twitter at 15, cutting her teeth in Vancouver’s DIY scene, and shaping a sound that pulls from rap, pop, and alternative without settling into any one lane.

Now, with her latest single "SASHA," she re-emerges with clarity. The track marks more than just a return, it sets the tone for what comes next. Where earlier releases introduced her voice, this new run of singles feels more intentional in its scope, stretching across sonic and thematic territory without losing its centre.

Our second Spring 2026 print edition cover star is none other than the iconic @peachesnisker. 🍑

Beyond the deeply-felt scope of aesthetic and thematic influence that Peaches, otherwise known as Merrill Nisker, has carved both into the pop canon and our collective sociology, the electro-clash artist's latest, 'No Lube So Rude,' arrives on the heels of countless other projects – she's done performance art, arranged music for dance troupes, and even dipped her feet into opera.

Also in this issue: interviews with @kimletgordon, @the.absolutely, @hirokitanakamusic, and @arlo.parks, exclusive editorials with @jianrossmusic and @public_appeal, early previews of the new @robynkonichiwa, @slayyyter, @sunglaciers, and so much more.

Greeted by flower-shaped balloons and neon lights that read "Pop Girl Summer," the tone was set immediately at @umusic's annual IGNITE showcase.

We sat down with @sydneyrosemusic_, @hollyhumberstone, & @ehugiii ahead of their performances at the event to get a glimpse into their creative worlds.

The first time listeners heard Spencer Krug's idiosyncratic tenor was now more than 20 years ago.

Back then, before "I'll Believe in Anything" found new life through 2025's cult-favourite 'Heated Rivalry,' the song carried a different kind of emotional weight.

With the release of his new LP, 'Same Fangs,' Krug set out to do what felt most natural, which was to make a record about himself as he is now: an ageing icon, a father and a husband, a persisting talent, a mortal man, warts and all.

There’s something deeply cinematic about Scarlett Rose before you even hear a note of her music.

Maybe it’s her name, or maybe it’s the way she speaks about love like it’s both a spiritual phenomenon and a dangerous addiction.

On “Where Love Begins,” the first glimpse into her forthcoming debut solo album, 'Ways to An End,' Rose builds an emotional universe distorted with desire, memory, fantasy, and grief.

Hot Garbage gave us the bug. 🪲

Check out the Toronto psych-noise outfit’s chaotic new video for “SPUN,” starring our May digital cover star @sookyinleee as “The Bug” — creeping and crawling through a darkly surreal version of Toronto.

Directed by the band’s @dylangamblez, the icy fever dream pairs blown-out post-punk chaos with one very unforgettable insect performance.

Even at Clara Kimera’s most diaristic, she’s never fully in the room with you.

Her new EP 'the plushies' unashamedly leans all the way into that space, where comfort and unease share the same surface. Flickering between organic and artificial, what once felt like aesthetic curiosity for her now reads as second nature.

17sport appears as if they're something from a dream, produced in the foggy memory of early aughts witch house and refreshed, re-remembered for a current electronic landscape.

The Montreal duo lives in a world of cotton candy, endless summer and monster trucks. Watching clips of their performances, their stage presence is magnetic, much like the air of freneticism and freedom in their flitting, hypnagogic work.

Yungblud fans aren’t so different from him.

When Dominic Harrison aka @yungblud rolled through Toronto earlier this week with his IDOLS World Tour, RANGE hit up his pre-show pop-up at the @umusic HQ in Liberty Village and talked to some of his diehard fans — or extended “family,” as prefers to call them.

From emotional confessions and flash tattoos to an unforgettable onstage moment with a fan from Ottawa, this was a night we won’t forget.

Ontario’s The Flatliners play punk with a pulse. Instead of escaping grim realities, they lean into them.

Their high-octane, melodic new album 'Cold World' is packed with anthems of grief, of being up against a wall, and – as frontman Chris Cresswell puts it – “dealing with the bullshit of the world around you.”
