10 February 2026 - New in the Fashion.at Music Playlist: "UMBRL" by Nenda. The artist from the Tyrolean Alps is one of Austria's most visible new voices, recently winning the FM4 Award at the Amadeus Austrian Music Awards through a public listener vote. Known for blending dialect, English and pop-rap, Nenda's "UMBRL" plays with intimacy and trust: the "umbrella" as a space of safety. The track is taken from her new album KRRRA.

6 February 2026 - Fashion.at Playlist Update: Fresh Tracks for 2026 Vibes
• SOFI TUKKER teams with J Balvin on "COOK," their Republic Records debut. This high-energy dance-reggaeton fusion drops Feb 6, blending electronic beats with Latin flair. Lyrics metaphorically "cook" up excitement—mixing in pots, smoking hot vibes—as a nod to partying, attraction, and living boldly, with J Balvin's verses adding a rockstar, sensual edge.
• Arlo Parks' "Heaven," out Feb 2, heralds her album Ambiguous Desire (April 3). Shifting to ravey techno-bass, it's a nocturnal slow-burner. Lyrics capture fleeting euphoria in crowded raves: losing oneself in music's communal joy, embracing impermanence as heaven found and lost in moments.
