LVST CHVNZ Snags the Spotlight of the Day

Alright, fam—let’s talk about the name buzzing through our speakers right now: LVST CHVNZ. This artist is moving different. Today, we made it official—LVST CHVNZ is our Spotlight of the Day on Melodic Playground Radio, and honestly? About time. This guy has been cooking up heat non-stop, and now he’s got not one, not two, but three tracks in daily rotation on the station. That’s the kind of consistency that doesn’t happen by accident. That’s talent, hustle, and a little bit of that “you-can’t-ignore-me” energy.

When you press play on a LVST CHVNZ track, you’re not just catching a song—you’re catching a vibe. His sound has that sweet spot we love in indie music: raw enough to feel authentic, polished enough to turn heads. Every track feels like he’s leaving a piece of himself on the record, and that’s why listeners are sticking around. We keep seeing it—new fans tuning in, hearing his songs, and immediately hitting the “who is this?” moment. That’s magic.

And let’s be real—three tracks in our rotation isn’t just bragging rights. That’s an early sign that he’s playing the long game. LVST CHVNZ isn’t out here throwing darts hoping one hits. He’s hitting bullseyes on repeat, and that’s exactly why his name is creeping into bigger conversations, like—you guessed it—the 2025 Artist of the Year award.

Now, if you’re new around here, let me tell you something about that award. It’s not just about dropping a hit and dipping. Artist of the Year means you owned the year. You kept the momentum, you grew your reach, and you made enough noise that people couldn’t scroll past your name without stopping. From what we’re seeing? LVST CHVNZ is checking every box.

What makes this even sweeter is that it’s all indie. No shortcuts, no fake streams, no big machine pulling the strings—just good music, a strong work ethic, and a growing wave of fans riding with him. That’s the kind of story we love to see at Melodic Playground. That’s why we do this.

So today’s spotlight isn’t just a pat on the back—it’s a loudspeaker announcement. LVST CHVNZ is here, he’s hungry, and he’s got the catalog to back it up. If you’re sleeping, consider this your wake-up call. Spin his tracks, add them to your playlist, blast them in your car, let your neighbor wonder why your walls are shaking—because this artist deserves it.

And don’t say we didn’t warn you when the Artist of the Year talks start heating up. LVST CHVNZ has his eyes on that prize, and if he keeps dropping songs like the ones we’re already spinning daily, well… let’s just say the trophy might already have his name on it.

Stay tuned, stay indie, and stay ready—because this ride with LVST CHVNZ is just getting started.

Marc Biala - Streaming Soon… but Not on Netflix!

Austin, Texas just got a fresh dose of indie magic — and it comes with a side of popcorn, a comfy couch, and a whole lot of sass. Marc Biala, one of the city’s most standout and unapologetically authentic indie artists, is gearing up to drop his brand-new single, Netcflickin, on September 5, 2025. And let’s be real… if you know Marc, you already know this is going to be more than just a song. It’s a mood. It’s a vibe. It’s a whole binge-worthy experience.

The title alone tells you everything you need to know. Marc is a self-proclaimed Netflix addict — the kind who doesn’t just “watch a few episodes” but fully commits to twelve-hour marathons like it’s an Olympic sport. From cult documentaries to cheesy rom-coms, from intense thrillers to wild reality TV, Marc has probably seen it all… twice. So when he writes a song called Netcflickin, you know it’s inspired by real, lived-in, remote-in-hand experience.

But this isn’t just some fun little streaming joke — Marc has turned it into an anthem. The track blends witty storytelling with his signature indie-pop-meets-electronic production, creating a soundtrack for anyone who’s ever texted “just one more episode” at 3 a.m. The song’s hook? Catchy enough to get stuck in your head faster than Netflix asks, “Are you still watching?”

Alongside the single, Marc is serving up a full visual feast. The Netcflickin music video, dropping the same day, is part love letter to streaming culture, part comedic masterpiece. Picture Marc in a fluffy robe, surrounded by snacks, flipping through endless titles while dancing around the living room. It’s playful, relatable, and guaranteed to make you laugh — and then immediately add the song to your playlist.

While the single is quirky and fun, Marc Biala’s presence in the music world is anything but one-dimensional. As a proud LGBT activist, Marc uses his platform to amplify voices, advocate for inclusion, and break down barriers in the indie scene. His music, interviews, and community work all share a common thread: authenticity. He doesn’t just sing about life — he lives it in a way that makes people feel seen.

In the heart of Austin, Marc’s name is already buzzing in coffee shops, record stores, and live venues. His earlier releases have earned him a loyal following that spans far beyond Texas, and Netcflickin feels like the next big leap. Fans love that he can turn everyday moments — whether it’s heartbreak, activism, or a night of streaming — into art that connects.

September 5, 2025, isn’t far away, and the hype is real. Here at Melodic Playground, we’re beyond excited to introduce Netcflickin to our network, spin it on our station, and share the video and artwork with our listeners. Marc Biala isn’t just releasing a song; he’s inviting us all to press play, grab the snacks, and join him for a musical binge session we won’t forget.

Until then, keep your Wi-Fi strong and your calendars marked. The stream-worthy single of the year is coming.

KCMO Artist Spotlight - Young Rillo

Every now and then, an artist comes through and makes us stop what we’re doing, turn the volume up, and really listen. That’s exactly what happened when Young Rillo landed in our inbox. Straight outta Kansas City, Missouri, this brother is the truth. And now that he's officially part of the Melodic Playground Radio family, it’s only right we let y’all know what time it is.

Let’s talk about that joint “H.E.R.” featuring Kevin Church Johnsons. Man, this one right here? It’s a whole vibe. It’s smooth, it’s soulful, it’s storytelling with substance. Rillo ain’t just throwing bars—he’s painting pictures. And Kevin? That brother brought some grown-man soul to the mix. The way the two of them play off each other is magic. This ain’t no fast food music—this is that real deal, cook-it-slow, feel-it-deep type of joint.

But hold up… just when we thought we had Rillo figured out, he flipped the energy and hit us with “Got Me Lit Up”. And let me tell you—that one’s a whole summer anthem. That’s backyard BBQ music. That’s pull-up-on-ya-people-feeling-good music. It’s confident. It’s catchy. It’s the one you blast on repeat while you shine on your haters. Rillo showed us both sides—emotional depth and big flex energy. And we’re here for all of it.

Now over here at Melodic Playground, we don’t just spin songs—we break artists. We support the ones that deserve more ears, more light, and more love. And Rillo? He’s exactly the kind of artist we get excited about. Ain’t no gimmicks, ain’t no chasing trends—just raw talent, real stories, and a style that can ride in any region.

Rillo’s got that Midwest hunger, but his flow got West Coast ease. He makes it look easy, but you can tell it comes from a place of grind, lessons, and lived experience. Whether he’s rapping about love, loyalty, or leveling up, there’s purpose behind every word.

We’re not just proud to have him on the station—we’re honored. Real talk.

So if you ain’t caught the wave yet, now’s your chance. Go run up “H.E.R.”. Then hit “Got Me Lit Up” and tell me that ain’t a heater. Trust me, once you hear Young Rillo, you’ll get it.

Kansas City stand up—your boy is out here putting on heavy.

And to the rest of the world? Pay attention. Rillo’s not just up next. He’s already here.

Welcome to the Playground, fam.
