After the reception Yellinek received from their Recent releases, they join us again to discuss their music, their inspirations, and what we can expect from them in the future! Make sure to check out our interview below:

We are happy to have you today. Tell us about your 2021 so far, what have you guys been up to?

This year, from the very beginning, started with a very busy day. We are working hard on new material for the first album. So finish, record, prepare, think, and over and over. We just released our new single NO ONE LIKE YOU with two songs and we are getting ready for a new and our first long album which will be released in May 2021. It will be 12 amazing songs. We can not wait. But when we release the album, we’ll be working on music videos, maybe a home concert and more… It’s going to be a very hard but rewarding year for us.

Yellinek Etched Out Uplifting Musicality in Their New Single "No One Like You"

How did the band first get started?

The band was founded by Richard Jellinek. As a teenager, he played a few or a few shows, nothing serious. Then he broke his musical adventure in favor of a career and family life. Just life … Finally, a year ago he returned to music, this time seriously and forever. As he always made songs, wrote lyrics, poems, he decided it was time to make his dream come true and to release a really serious album. The time was perfect because a year earlier his two sons had started their adventure with music. So there were already 3 people in the band and we only needed a singer. We met him on one music portal. The funniest thing is that we are from Poland, but Lukky – our singer comes from and lives in Chile. We started in April 2020.

How did you come up with the band name “Yellinek”?

It is very easy. Most of us have the surname JELLINEK ha ha, but if you want to pronounce it well in English you need to convert J to Y. For example, Richard Jellinek should be spelled Yellinek to make the surname sound correct

How would you describe your sound to someone who just listened to your music for the first time?

We play modern melodic rock based on the best sounds of the 80’s. So if you liked these sounds, you will probably like our music. Nice melodic verses and easy to remember choruses, charismatic vocals and strong guitars. Our lyrics are based on important life problems, things that touch hearts. We don’t sing about drugs, alcohol and endless parties etc… So in this case we are not a typical rock’n’roll group ha ha.

How has these past few months of quarantine affected you all creatively?

It may sound strange, but we can say that we were created by quarantine. The team was formed exactly during the first world quarantine. Honestly, had it not been for the time, we would have formed much later, maybe never. The quarantine motivated us to live and pursue our passions. We spent a lot of time thinking about everything and discovering the most important things we want to do in life. It was a time of life reevaluation.

What is one message you would give to your fans?

Be yourself, no matter what they say, fight for a better tomorrow, live, love and if you have any troubles remember that it’s always worth living (this is also the name of our newest song)

What advice do you have for anyone interested in starting their own band?

Play or sing first, but practice, practice a lot, play with music. Then you need the right people with whom you get along well. Then take the right path, follow one plan for the future, have fun but plan and implement it step by step. Now finding the right people is very easy. Social media, many portals bringing together people related to passions. Just take the first step and the next!

Thank you for speaking with us! For our final question, is there anything else you would like to add?

Yes, listen to our new album NO ONE LIKE YOU, wait for the next songs we will deliver soon, and be sure that all we create is a made with passion, and feelings we share with you. Be with us on the way to be the greatest rock band ever ha ha, support us. And the most important stay safe! See you soon! We love all our fans!

Van Hechter’s “Boy Problems” Is a Deep and Danceable Bilingual Anthem for Anyone Tired of Lukewarm Love

Van Hechter’s “Boy Problems” Is a Deep and Danceable Bilingual Anthem for Anyone Tired of Lukewarm Love

Montreal-based pop sensation and LGBTQ activist Van Hechter is back with “Boy Problems,” a stunning new single. The track merges his signature upbeat charm with rare emotional depth. Hechter, known for hits like “Disco Brother,” “Hot Damn,” and “Love Elastic,” reveals a new side to his magnetic electro-pop personality, offering a message that is both radiant and raw.

At 4 minutes and 24 seconds, “BoyProblems” is a bilingual (French & English) eruption of glitter, melancholy, and empowerment. It’s built on irresistible synths, glossy production, and pulsing basslines. The song invites listeners into a world where heartbreak beats in rhythm with liberation. The melodies feel euphoric on the surface, yet are stained with a haunting vulnerability, proving that dancing and deep feeling can exist together.

At its core, the song is a manifesto about refusing to settle for half-love. Van delivers lyrics that make you sway, smile, and suddenly pause; the truth stings. If love isn’t loud, real, and fully given, he’d rather walk away. It’s a reminder wrapped in rhythm: loving yourself means refusing the small version of what you deserve.

Filled with Hechter’s signature humor, glamour, and optimism, “Boy Problems” is a club anthem and a soul-stirrer all at once. The bilingual lyrics expand its emotional reach. The track feels at home anywhere, from Parisian dance floors and New York rooftops to headphones on a bus or speakers at Pride.

This is a jam that makes you feel like you’re flying, free from pretense. It’s definitively dance-pop and unmistakably Van Hechter, though the smile has a real heartbeat underneath. Listeners will hear that signature flair; he’s still cheeky, stylish, and unapologetically queer. His artistry is simply sharpened with new emotional honesty. This is a growth moment, delivered with a wink and a synth hook.

“Boy Problems” is a significant step beyond a simple catchy single. It’s a toast to self-worth. A glittering rebellion against lukewarm love. A reminder that the dance floor can be a place to heal. This sonic centerpiece belongs on your playlist, and on your friends’ too.

TR Craze brings his South Sudanese story to the gritty drill anthem “Tule Tule” with Jamaican-UK rapper Caine Marko

TR Craze brings his South Sudanese story to the gritty drill anthem "Tule Tule" with Jamaican-UK rapper Caine Marko

Sometimes a song shows up like that friend who kicks open the door without knocking, grinning and saying, “get your shoes, we’re leaving.” “Tule Tule,” the new single from South Sudanese artist TR Craze featuring Jamaican-UK rapper Caine Marko, moves exactly like that. The track is bold and charged, carrying the weight of lived experience while stomping over a dark, menacing drill beat that feels built for the streets as much as the club.

TR Craze’s backstory reads like a movie script Hollywood studios would fight over. He was born in South Sudan, shaped by the trauma of civil war, and pushed into the harsh realities of refugee life. He literally survived the treacherous routes through Libya and across the Mediterranean Sea to reach Europe. This man distills survival into rhythm. On “Tule Tule,” you can feel that heart, that urgency, and that fire in his delivery, channelled into a raw, assertive drill performance that cuts through even if you don’t understand a single word of the opening verse. At its core, “Tule Tule” is a raw, assertive drill track that isn’t afraid to bare its teeth.

The word “Tule” comes from Nuer. It refers to youth games and the electric thrill of chasing something, whether that’s victory, joy, or destiny. TR Craze uses that spirit like a drumbeat beneath his voice. The choruses hit with a communal, call-and-response warmth but here that playfulness is flipped into a gritty, chant-like hook – “Tule Tule” – that feels like the rallying cry of a crew on the move. Even without translating the lyrics, the tone tells you everything. This is about motion, pursuit, celebration, and refusing to stay stuck in the past, all wrapped in an unapologetic, high-adrenaline atmosphere. Lyrically, the track leans into street life, dominance and crew loyalty, matching the tension in the beat.

Behind them, producer Kyxxx builds a dark, tense soundscape, stitching drill drums with Brazilian bounce and Bhangra-flavoured rhythmic elements that keep the track constantly on edge. The result is a gritty, energetic and unapologetic atmosphere that pulls you straight into their world.

Then Caine Marko slides in for the second verse, and the whole energy pivots into a sharp, swagger-heavy bounce. His flow is clean but gritty, confident and confrontational, shifting between braggadocio and sly charm.

“She knows I’m a wolf and I run the pack,” he starts, classic alpha talk, but delivered with a laid-back grin. “She come first like running track,” he continues, flipping between affection and athletic metaphors like a man who’s too used to moving fast.

Then he opens up the verse more: “Doing dirt and getting with a bitty, I only pretty… then back to the city. Got me some liquor then it got me some weed.” It’s lifestyle rap, but the reckless, unapologetic kind. It’s the messy, outside-at-night, live-in-the-moment vibe that balances TR Craze’s more grounded narrative. When he ends with “you going to hang with the gang,” the energy snaps into a group-hyped finale, a reminder that music like this isn’t meant to be consumed alone, underlining the crew-first loyalty at the heart of the record.

“Tule Tule” works because it blends worlds without softening its raw, street-hardened edge. It merges East African emotion, Caribbean-UK swagger, drill and hip-hop grit, Brazilian and Bhangra textures in Kyxxx’s production, diaspora storytelling, and a spirit of joy that refuses to be dimmed by pain.

Let “Tule Tule” run while you’re walking, cooking, texting, or plotting big dreams – or getting ready to step out with your crew.
