Olexandr Ignatov – Arrival
(Spotify)

“The Synthwave music style is unique, because it acts as a time machine and sends its listeners into their own unique universe. The sound in -Arrival- is saturated with lamp analog synthesizers, light rhythm and excellent dynamics.”

“Жанр Synthwave уникален тем, что он действует как Машина Времени и отправляет своего слушателя в свою, уникальную вселенную. Звук в -Arrival- насыщен ламповыми аналоговыми синтезаторами, лёгким ритмом и прекрасной динамикой.”

WEIRDO – TRANSCENDENCE
(Video)

“”Weirdo” is back with the always favourite Indie R&B style. Rich mix, with electronic patterns, smooth flow and creative progression. An alternate expression of a love story that finally fades away in a fake reality. Too artistic to miss!”

-Nagamag.com

After releasing his first single of the year, UK based singer-songwriter WEIRDO returns with a brooding, dark and eluding song ‘TRANSCENDENCE’, his second release taken from the upcoming debut mixtape/LP: ‘A MIXTAPE FOR HEARTBREAK’.

Accompanied by a sensational, surrealist and trippy 3D music video directed and created by Lucas Saidl and his visual collective ‘NotReal_Virtual’, TRANSCENDENCE sends you on an audial and visual journey through a broken relationship where love, betrayal, heartbreak and loss combine in an ethereal way.

Written, mixed and produced by WEIRDO in his Berlin based recording studio, a degraded drum beat joins forces with his signature nonchalant vocal style and a moody synth melody to result in a stunning “hit-repeat-again” track.

The song sets the scene for what’s about to come from his upcoming 10 track mixtape/LP, set for release in Autumn 2021.

You can pre-order the LP/Mixtape on various formats here: http://thewonderfulworldofweirdo.bigcartel.com

BIO:

When first emerging from his home studio a few years back, WEIRDO, also known as Josh Christopher, started out by releasing a demo called ‘Disco’ via Majestic Casual’s YouTube channel which quickly spun up a fuss and amassed more than 1 million plays within a few months… he then disappeared.

He later re-emerged from silence by spontaneously releasing a pair of odd-pop singles named ‘BUTTER’ and ‘ARMANIO’, which both received #1’s on Hype Machine and Human Human.

‘SAPPHIRE’ was his next musical manoeuvre in which he collaborated with some musical friends; on drums Debbie Knox-Hewson (Charli XCX, Nasty Cherry) and on bass Pierre Leck. Renowned photographer James Perolls took press pictures for the release.

After a little more silent treatment, he dropped ‘ATTITUDE’ which landed on Spotify with a New Music Friday UK addition alongside support from Apple Music’s UK playlists.

Press came from some of the blogosphere’s most respected outlets such as W Magazine, Pigeons and Planes, DIY, Clash and Line of Best Fit.

Annie Mac announced WEIRDO in her New Names playlist on her BBC Radio 1 show whilst it was also included in the BBC Introducing Best Of playlist by Huw Stephens.

He took, yet again, another short hiatus whilst diving into the working life to pay the bills, make some new music for his other project IYES, and “grow up a little bit”.

Christopher, previously of indie pop duo IYES, had a Billboard Dance Club Chart #1 alongside being signed to Sony UK.

In 2020, he returned with singles EUROTRASH, FAKIN’ and some other B-side tracks.

BBC Radio 1’s Jack Saunders was the first to support alongside BBC 6Music, BBC H+W, Amazing Radio, Spotify’s Fresh Finds: Pop playlist, and online outlets such as Vice/Noisey, Wonderland, Complex and EARMILK.

His latest and first release from his upcoming mixtape/LP, ‘CAN’T WITHOUT YOU’, a song co-written with acclaimed hitmaker A7S, received praise on Spotify’s Fresh Finds: Pop playlist once again, from Apple Music’s NEW IN INDIE playlist and Anghami’s Alternative Pop playlist.

WEIRDO once again proved he is not just a flash in the pan and reignited the flame of media buzz for the third time.

WEIRDO defines his life experiences lyrically and sonically. He bounces between lo-fi production techniques (using vintage synths, putting sounds to tape machines and playing with random musical toys) and throws freshness and modern elements into the pot with electro-pop sounds.

“A well balanced & dynamic production that because of the care given to stereo placement & definition, the wearing of headphones is compulsory.

The vocals seamlessly knit together, cascading through a range of styles & creativity, with many interesting timing variations.”

Sissysocks – Augsburg
(Video)

“”Augsburg” is real anti-nightopia in the world of music. It is clearly intertwined by Indie Electronic elements, which are accompanied by a measured rhythm and barely invisible, but very memorable synthesizer melody. 100% dive!”

“-Augsburg- это настоящая антиутопия в мире музыки. В ней отчётливо переплетаются элементы indie electronic, которые сопровождаются размеренным ритмом и едва незаметными, но очень запоминающимися нотами мелодии синтезатора. 100% погружение!”

-Nagamag.com

This song is about looking for things in the wrong places, and making the same mistakes again.

Odd Beholder – Accept Nature
(Video)

“Do you feel anxious and stressed? Trapped into a destructive routine. Find your chance to escape from maddness with this nice Synthwave song. Popping beat, dreamy melodies and Daniela’s charming voice won’t let you down!”

-Nagamag.com

Odd Beholder, the Electronica / Art Pop project from Swiss musician Daniela Weinmann releases the video for the recent single “Accept Nature“.

“Accept Nature” is a song about anxieties caused by unrealistic and, often, meaningless work goals. Weinmann details the track as well as the video:

The song «Accept Nature» tells the story of an insomniac that watches funny animal videos on her phone at night. She’s chronically stressed out because she feels that she has to compete with machines at work – so she wishes she would either become a machine, too, or survive like an animal in the wild, where her instincts / feelings would be an advantage instead of a disadvantage.

In the videoclip, the protagonist has transformed the trauma of her chronic stress into a cathartic object love. She falls for her exercise machine. To live her relationship or her kink she has to break into a gym at night.

Ironically, the wish to fit in into a merciless competitive work environment ultimately makes her drop out of the mainstream (sexuality). She explores a passion more interesting than productivity and conformity – and this exciting exploration helps her deal with the anxiousness she feels every night. I mean if you can’t sleep anyway – you might aswell break into a gym and seduce an exercise machine, right?

One night, she is discovered by a cleaner. This woman observes her quietly and doesn’t interfere for quite a while. Like the dancer, the cleaner breaks a few rules: She brings her dog to work and she spends the night in the gym, prying on the intimate moment between the woman and the exercise machine.

When she finally decides to step forward by switching on the light, she doesn’t call her out. Instead, she signals that she would like to join in.

I interpret this as a second step in the personal development of the two women: After turning to dogs and machines in search of love, comfort and warmth, they finally see each other. They finally discover solidarity and get curios about each other. Happy end: The stressed and singled out employee finds an unexpected ally after she dares to live out her wildest and weirdest feelings.

Odd Beholder’s sophomore album “Sunny Bay” will be released on Sept. 10th, 2021.

March and June , Indra – Love Lies
(Video)

“A new star has dropped down from heavens and is called; “Love Lies”. Prepare for a fascinating trip in space with “March and June”. Hot Electronic waves with some old-style touch and the super voice of “Indra” are capable to blow up your mind.”

-Nagamag.com

Nothing is lost. Nothing is created. Everything is transformed. Love turns into bubbly electro pop-dance synths, tears of happiness morph into stardust and discoball reflections. Riding along the dusty guitar riffs we found Indra’s sensual tones.

Love Lies is March & June’s newest journey into the outer space, following the same musical path back into the glorious 80s’ decade. He doesn’t travel by himself: Indra, one for Romania’s up-and-coming musical talents joined the mysterious astronaut, bringing smooth, sensual colours to the mix.

Kebu – Fleeting Lights
(Video)

“Synthwave melody that is deeply inspired from a forgotten era. Organically pleasant keyboards sound and pleasant whisper of nostalgia. -Fleeting Lights- is the time to dream about the past.”

“Мелодия synthwave сильно окунает с головой в ушедшую, но так и не погасшую эпоху. Приятный проигрыш, органично звучащие клавишные и приятный шепот ностальгии. -Fleeting Lights- самое время для того, чтобы пофантазировать о былом. ”

-Nagamag.com

The synthesizer wizard Kebu is back with a second single from his upcoming third studio album “Urban Dreams”. Conceived during a time of lock-downs and people living in isolation in confined spaces, this instrumental album is exploring dreams – both those occurring during sleep and daydreams.

“Fleeting Lights” is a celebration of power ballads and soft rock beats from the eighties – essentially music that surrounded and influenced Kebu when he was young. Instead of being nostalgic or witty about it, Kebu executes the uplifting and optimistic track like the world never moved on past that decade. Again, Kebu is pushing the limits of what can be done with analog synthesizers – similar to Kebu’s earlier releases, this track – and his upcoming album – consist of a sound universe made only with analog synthesizers and analog drum machines. The synths used on “Fleeting Lights” are also featured in the music video. In addition to the original mix, the single contains also a shorter radio edit.
