Sam Miller – Moving (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, Neoclassical, The Latest|Tags: , , |

“Like You moving gracefully and calmly on thin ice. A Glare of the sun reflected from the snow. Yet you feel like hovering as a butterfly. The blue of frost flies from your wings, and you keep flying...”

“Грациозно и спокойно вы двигаетесь по тонкому льду. Мерцают блики солнца отражаясь от снега. И вот мы уже пархаете как бабочка. Синева инея разлетаются от ваших крыльев. Двигайтесь несмотря ни на что!”

-Nagamag.com

Sam Miller is a man of unique talents. A rare musical soul who thrives in our modern day of synthesizers and microchips, but who would be equally content playing Bach fugues in a cathedral filled with orangutans. His musical output is driven by curiosity and exploration, noticeably lacking the self-aggrandizing spirit of so much pop music.

From the mysterious deserts of New Mexico, Miller is at once a songwriter, composer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist. He is a master storyteller, who walks a tightrope pitched between the beauty of life’s complexities and the abyss of the subconscious. His lyrics grow more dynamic and intriguing with each listen. An elegant love song is simultaneously a riddle that would tickle the ghost of Lewis Carroll.

One of the most impressive measures of Miller’s writing is how the melodic content of the songs carry the weight of his lyrics. His attention to detail in arrangement and production creates fully realized songs that arrive at a clear destination. There is a confidence and thoughtfulness that is applied to each composition. Clever melodic hooks manage to echo in your head for days, allowing the depth of the lyrics to slowly unfurl in your thoughts. Miller’s deep and resonant voice evokes Scott Walker, Nick Cave, and even Johnny Cash. At its climax In One Place at a Time is soaring chamber pop akin to Devotchka, at its most introspective it is indie pop held together by synths and drum machines. With a close listen, there are hints of americana, traditional country, psychedelia, and even exotica.

“What can you find in the fog? Fog will always carry the secret.if you want to know about this, you have to enter into the fog and seek for it. The slow melody partly is interrupted by a hasty as you are into rush to get through the fog. An emotive neoclassical by Agustin Mantaras x Bergi.”

“Что ты можешь найти в тумане? Он всегда будет нести тайну. И если ты хочешь узнать ее, ты должен войти в туман и отыскать ее. Неторопливая мелодия перебивается с торопливой и ты несешься сквозь туман. Не забываемые чувства оставляет Agustin Mantaras x Bergi.”

Bergi, recently released the single release "Myst". It features an emotion-drenched arrangement, a powerful piano progression, and mesmerizing melodies. It was featured in One World Music Radio in the UK, in the live show "Shores of Atlantis" and ranked second position on the Top 50 Singles Chart for July 2020.

In Steve Sheppard's own words (presenter on One World Music Radio)

"Myst from Bergi is an outstanding single from the artist, the performance on piano is utterly reflective and deeply emotional, and a song that would easily fit into the category of being cinematic in its overall energies as well.

If a composition stops me in my tracks it must be good, and Myst from Bergi is most certainly that, it is music that will conjure up memories moods and images within the mind, it is a song that may well bring a tear to your eye with its tones of reflection and sad beauty, but overall, it is a piece that I am more than happy to recommend to anyone who likes their music to move them to the very depths of their soul"

Catch the Rise – Purple (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, Electronica, The Latest|Tags: , , , |

“Feels like you are sitting on the edge of a cliff enjoying the sunrise, closing your eyes. Seeing the wonderful moments of your life like a bird soaring above the clouds. Yet your own skin feels the warm wind and the caressing sun. You can be that happy with -Catch the Rise-.”

“Будто бы вы сидите на краю скалы наслаждаясь рассветом и закрываете глаза. Вы видите прекрасные моменты вашей жизни. И вы словно птица парите выше облаков. И собственной кожей ощущаете теплый ветер, и ласкающее солнце. Будьте счастливы с Catch the Rise.”

-Nagamag.com

Artist shared few words about this song with us:
“Purple is such an interesting color to me. It’s a little warm and soothing while at the same time dark and deep. Purple is the real color of love in my eyes. Not pink. Pink is too soft. Real love is hard and dark at times. And it will definitely leave you bruised. I had just left a very deep love when I was working on this song. However, I didn’t set out with the intention of making a song about love… but once I realized that the music was expressing what I was feeling, the color Purple seemed to really capture where I was emotionally at the time.”

Few words about the artist:
Catch the Rise is a music project from producer/composer Britt Barker that is aimed at capturing and reflecting the complex yet beautiful moments of life through song. In a sense, his songs are his soundtrack.

Driven by electronic-based production and live guitar instrumentation, the music of Catch the Rise creates a unique, atmospheric space for the listener to have an experience- to reflect, to be energized or to simply escape. The songs provide sonic color for each moment, whether it be for the fan listening for pure enjoyment or the visual artist looking to enrich their project with tones and texture.

Lo Boii – Save Us (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, Jazz, The Latest|Tags: , , , , , |

“A soft and gentle voice with a touch of jazz, it's like a cream pie with cinnamon, perfect and luscious. A song which will help you to relax in the late evening. Now let's close our eyes and feel like sail along a calm river like a paper boat. ”

“Мягкий и нежный голос с нотками джаза, это как - кремовый пирог с корицей. И он идеальный, не приторный. Это то, что поможет расслабиться поздним вечером, возможно вдвоем. А теперь закроем глаза и плывем по спокойной реке пытаясь спасти нас.”

-Nagamag.com

With instrumentally brilliant production from Aalias —co-producer of the Grammy-winning Eminem and Rihanna single "The Monster" —and shining falsetto runs from Corey Latif —a two-time Grammy-nominated songwriter who’s written for Usher, Musiq Soulchild, Faith Evans, and more— Lo Boii is a project made with soul from the ground up.

Lo Boii’s previously released singles “Floor Seats” and “Sweeter,” which blend faithful nods to the pair's influences with a distinct, surprising new flavor. Tracks like “Chakra” shine a light on the pair’s blend of old-school funk licks and soulful vocal runs with a wholly original take on modern electronica. Layered sheets of sound combine with an underlying steadiness to form a masterfully crafted mosaic, and gems like their electrofunk cover of “She Drives Me Crazy” by Fine Young Cannibals put Latif’s falsetto chops on full display.
