The final week of 2023 is finally upon us, and it brought several exciting new songs our way. New music releases tend to slow down once the year reaches its final stage, but that didn’t stop Peso Pluma, Winona Oak, Lost Frequencies, and Bastille from dropping new songs.

2023 has been a breakout year for Peso Pluma, and he’s ending it on a high note. He single-handedly popularized regional Mexican music, and his latest song “Rompe La Dompe” saw him joining forces with Junior H and Óscar Maydon.

The rest of our list for the week mostly consists of alternative artist who are still searching for their first big hit. During slow weeks for new music releases, we tend to shed light on rising stars who are still making a name for themselves but still deserve a spot on your playlist.

Winona Oak has been one of our favorites for quite some time, and she knocked us off our feet again with the soaring ballad “Fragile Thing”. English singer Rhodes, TikTok sensation Baby Storme, and the Afroswing artist Myles Smith also made it to our list this week, along with the DJ Lost Frequencies who joined forces with Bastille for “Head Down”
