“The drum machine sets the mood. The build of patterns increases at a steady pace setting the mood. Smooth synths add to the ensemble with a sleek voice making itself heard. Simple at times can provide more space to be free and find oneself in the tune. ”

“A dancing creature hopping across a meadow into a lush green forest filled with natures magic. The sun rises behind it as the ray shine on the treetops awaking all the creatures. A new dawn is upon us, fresh and magnificent in her glory. This beautiful composure can truly relax one to the core. ”

“"Stradovare" captured our attention with her riveting voice and dynamic character in a song balancing between light and darkness. The smooth background melody is interestingly in contrast with those passionate lyrics, conveying the message that we should always stand strong.”

“When we think about "home", a cozy atmosphere comes in the mind. For most of us is the place we find shelter and usually good company. "Jills Veranda" carries good memories of endless hours, spent with friends and even if you miss this, Paulin's mesmerizing voice will make you feel the same.”

This song is a homage and lovesong to the artists who magically combine words and music in a way that touches our souls. I was inspired by a swedish music documentary by the same name.

“One of the most difficult musical solutions is that each sound element is harmoniously built into the general structure of the narrative. And at -rtwog2 x ipree - it turned out perfectly in their new single. Reggae and Afrobeats have never sounded so fresh and ideologically! (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”
“Одно из самых трудных музыкальных решений состоит в том, чтобы каждый звуковой элемент был гармонично встроен в общую структуру повествования. И у -RtwoG2 x iPree- это прекрасно получилось в их новом сингле. Reggae и Afrobeats ещё никогда не звучали так свежо и идейно!”

“We all struggle among the shadows. Wondering souls taking their turn on this magical planet. Soft as rose petals sprinkled by the morning dew. The piano here really comes alive in soft gentle ways only a true master can express. ”

Song inspired by Hampsicora's failed rebellion against the Romans in 215 BC. With the piece I wanted to imagine the moment when he realises he has lost everything by looking at the smoke coming from the battlefield on which his son is also lying.

“Misty mountains with dark lush forests that seem to go on forever. A weary traveler on a lonely road soaking up the memories of yesterdays glory. The vocal chorus guides us further on this journey as the acoustical guitar and strings really make themselves stand out. Hope is felt in the distant echoes of this beautifully assembled piece. ”

The music is North American folk, with deep currents of eastern classical. The emphasis and focus of the music is on the poetry, elevated by melody; and musically, classical compositions from acoustic instruments, including harp, cello, oud, and violin, provide the lyrical templates for the text. The main influences for the poetry are the long tradition of Sufi Qawwali and the work of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, mysteriously mixed with the Canadian folk lineages of Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen. The music is in turns bleak and mourning, and suddenly opens out into rapture and invocation.
“"Mr. SOS" is sending his message through a track inspired from a world full of difficulties. Addictive drums, saxophone loops and vocals telling a story of life struggle. Listen and realize that if you want to improve the world, you've to start from yourself first!”

Mr. SOS revives the important question, "what happened to peace," on this anti-war anthem, "Peace & Prosperity" produced by Maxamill.
Written for Ukraine and all victims of abuse, SOS delivers smooth but concise rhymes over beautiful production made up from hard bass grooves, hypnotic guitar melodies and a sax loop that sounds like a classic hip hop version of Marvin Gaye's "What’s Going On".
The song opens with a story of domestic abuse, focusing on a character named Janie who confronts her abuser. When asked why he chose to tell this story, SOS says, "It’s because we know there's a lot going on in the world right now and we want to be able to help, but we can't fix the world unless we fix ourselves first. It also plays like a metaphor for conflict such as the one happening between Russia & Ukraine."
Then in the second verse SOS gives us positive & inspiring words dedicated to Ukraine and everyone around the world who shares solidarity with the Ukrainian people, as well as a message for all people and leaders. "It’s a song I can see being played by protesters and revolutionaries," adds SOS.
"Peace & Prosperity" is out now, with cover art by Ukrainian artist and graphic designer Mikhailo Polivanov.
