Artist shared few words about the song

"Cherie" represents what Tomidrey's sound is like, the talking drums is what he grew up on in Nigeria. He used talking drums instead of the common bass triplets in amapiano.

Elias Noah – Shakira (Spotify)

“A delightful midtempo gem polished to perfection. Very groovy lyrics that captivate and draw in. A feelgood track that will surely be on repeat for many trying to elevate their mood. ”

-Nagamag.com

It's a german song about a girl I met a while ago. She reminds me of the famous pop star Shakira. We only met once, but just in the few minutes we got to know each other, there was this kind of tense feeling of "love". We never met again after this day, but maybe we will. So this song is about her. It was produced by me, lyrics by me and mix mastered by me. It has a catchy hook and a very chill vibe.

Chimzy, Teni – LEVEL (Spotify)

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

“Very tasty, fresh, modern and minimalistic work. Those vocals bring in mind something very distant and certainly bright. The personification of the original musical thinking lies in the pulsating rhythms of Afrobeats. Both artists deserve some respect!”

“Очень вкусное, свежее, современное и минималистичное произведение. Вокал, под который вспоминается что-то очень далёкое и непременно светлое. Олицетворение оригинального музыкального мышления в пульсирующих ритмах Afrobeats, за что огромная благодарность авторам!”

-Nagamag.com

Afro fusion artist Chimzy’s long-awaited project, Insomnia, was born from months of sleepless nights, as the artist pondered his future. The music on the tape is the fuel that kept him going through those long, dark days. He set out to create the sounds of the feelings he was experiencing, while simultaneously resolving to take his career to the next level by carving out his place in the industry. Despite the ominous theme that both the EP’s title and cover art depict, Insomnia is full of buoyant afro fusion tracks that express a range of emotions, from desire, to disappointment, to delight. Abuja-raised and Houston-based, Chimzy is confident that his unique experiences on his musical journey set him aside from his peers. Insomnia is a capsule of the artist’s emotions, taking his fans on a turbulent yet melodious journey that showcases his writing ability and musical prowess in one.

Level is easily the standout track of the EP. Chimzy and Teni celebrate hedonism and good-living over an addictive amapiano beat that will leave listeners dancing and wanting more.

Eric Papilaya – Getting Pretty Loose (Spotify)

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

“The quintessence of this track is splendor in its purest form! A chic idea, which very successfully combined Funk and Pop Rock. Energetic, bright and very charismatic vocals instantly create the right mood. There is a slight breeze here, an unusual and memorable song.”

“Квинтэссенция этого трека великолепие в чистом виде! Шикарная идея, в которой очень удачно совместили Funk и Pop Rock. Энергичный, яркий и очень харизматичный вокал мгновенно создаёт нужное настроение. Присутствует какое-то лёгкое дуновение ветерка, необычное и запоминающееся произведение.”

At a time when the whole world is stuck at home, creative musicians actually be grateful. At what other time, do you have so much time to produce songs, write lyrics and think about your projects. Eric had massive issues with this statement: “I missed my band and the live sessions a lot. I write a lot of material, but first and foremost I am someone who has the most fun on stage or in the rehearsal room ”

After a very contemplative album, the Upper Austrian wanted to go back to his musical roots and have fun with music. It was all about getting creative in the home studio.

Eric listened to a lot of music from the Motown era: Stevie Wonder, Prince, old Michael Jackson albums. The kind of music that made him feel like he was in a jam session, even if he was just sitting alone on the electric piano or guitar.

When Eric started to write, the return to the English language came naturally. Since his hit “Get Alive”, Eric has been almost exclusively German-speaking. But, when it comes to the fun of making music, the simplicity and ease in phonetics, it is just easier to do this in English. And, it also was great for his record company based in Munich and Nashville. So Eric is back at writing more international works and introduces them by releasing the funky soul pop track “Getting Pretty Loose” as the first single on his next album.

The track pays homage to Prince, one of the artists who shaped Eric the most. “Getting Pretty Loose” is simply meant to convey the feeling that Eric had when he bought his first Prince album. The driving groove, edgy Fender Rhodes sounds, funky bass lines, and then Eric's distinctive voice spiced with a fine twang.

“Getting Pretty Loose” is the perfect appetizer of his upcoming album that puts Eric Papilaya's greatest qualities as an artist first: Passion and Entertainment!

“This stand among the creations with a high level of composing skill. Starting with slow emotion, gradual growth of feelings and finallythe explosion! Sometimes music easily raise our body temperature, causing a storm of emotions!”

“Почётное место среди творений с высоким уровнем мастерства и масштабностью композиторского взгляда. Медленный накал эмоций, постепенное нарастание чувств и после взрыв! О, да, иногда музыка с лёгкостью поднимает температуру по всему телу и вызывает бурю эмоций!”

-Nagamag.com

This is one of the focus tracks of WE ARE AVA's debut album INNER GARDENING. Enveloped in a dreamy, multi-layered soundscape, the album track sings about the numbness and emptiness after a painful breakup with a touch of humor but an even greater amount of brutal honesty. «I saw that you unfollowed me on Instagram. Didn't think that you would for real. I know that's what people do when they break up. But man, this shit hurts like hell.» When what just can't be let go needs to be said again: «You told me that you’ll try to do much better, told me you won’t quit when it gets hard. You told me you were more in love than ever. I can’t believe we ruined something this good.»

YEOMAN, Fvntvcy – Falling (feat. Fvntvcy) (Spotify)

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

“A very experimental and unusual track, with mysterious atmosphere too. Those vocals can instantly fascinate and captivate the mind! An exciting combination of Electro Pop and Chillstep rhythms, which will not leave anyone indifferent.”

“Весьма экспериментальный и необычный трек, в котором присутствует загадочная атмосфера, в чём и заключается его ценность. Вы только послушайте этот вокал - он завораживает и мгновенно берёт вас в плен! Захватывающее сочетание Electro Pop и ритмов Chillstep, которое не оставит никого равнодушными.”

-Nagamag.com

Falling, at its essence is about a yearning for connection. Over the past year we have all felt disconnection; from loved ones, from nature. Written in 2020, during pandemic lockdowns Falling is my attempt to convey and counteract this sense of isolation. In order to do this I’ve incorporated natural elements into the sound design such as rain, sand, wind and even a fire crackling.

The track falling is heavy based around the piano in juxtaposition to the with super wide electronic saws synths and melodic bass throbs. I felt it was the perfect way to express such emotion, with a ’cinematic’ vastness; I wanted the listener to feel like they were floating in space euphorically.

Andi – Money (Spotify)

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

“Catchy work with high sound quality that deserves our attention! In this track, each element is clearly heard in a final mix that stimulates the senses. Also the bass transfers its vibration to your body. Enjoy!”

“Общая работа со звуком и качество сведения заслуживают очень высокой оценки! В пространстве трека чётко слышится каждый инструмент, ни один не выбивается из потока и в общем миксе каждый звук на своём месте. А работа над басом заслуживает особого внимания и вибрация ваших колонок тому подтверждение!”

-Nagamag.com

Andi may be new on the scene but she's no rookie. Singing from the age of 6 and writing songs since 11, Andi has recently garnered nearly 1 million new Tik Tok followers since the start of the year and independently added 100,000 Spotify followers. At only 19, she has several anthemic pop smashes under her belt and is back with another hit.

"Money" is Andi holding no prisoners as she gives side eye to the silver spooners who have no self awareness. Sliding between flippant vocals and a sludgy, pre-chorus bass line, Andi goes after how money affects us all - including artists. This track will rightfully have you questioning ethical consumption while at the club.

Says Andi,

Having moved to LA at 16, I was exposed to a very toxic culture surrounding fake wealth, clout etc… As a young artist, it’s very easy to get caught up in the mix of it. Money was incredibly fun to make; it’s pretty much a diss track to the people who think they’re better than you due to their social status.

Andi's young start with music and performance is the foundation of her connection with her rapidly growing fanbase. Not only did she go the more typical route of theater camp, but rather than cover her favorite songs, she wrote parodies of them. Andi has a goal of using self-awareness to connect with her fellow teens as she charts the trials and tribulations that come with her age.

Now, Andi is taking on her peers' obsession with wealth with her latest single, "Money".

Laura Brehm -The Dawn Is Still Dark (Video)

Categories: Pop, The Latest, Video|Tags: , , , |

“Emotional, discreet and elegant song which can cause admiration from its first seconds. Fascinating harmony and storm of indescribable emotions! We advise you to suspend all your current affairs and enjoy the impressive voice of Laura Brehm embraced by atmospheric music!”

“Эмоциональный, но при этом сдержанный и уверенный посыл песни восхищает с первых секунд. Завораживающая гармония и буря непередаваемых эмоций! Советуем вам приостановить все текущие дела и насладиться впечатляющим голосом Laura Brehm и атмосферной музыкой!”

“The Dawn Is Still Dark,” the title track from Laura Brehm’s brand new full length album, is a call to raise awareness of the climate crisis. The official video, directed by Chris Orwat of Pure Cinematography and filmed in rural northern Colorado, begins sad and dark, Laura seemingly alone in the world, in an unconscious state and seeing flashes of environmental crises and protests. As the emotional intensity of the song progresses, a new incarnation of Laura appears, bringing hope and light, and a vision of something better that awaits in the future if we truly work together in unity and love.

One of the most highly sought-after vocalists in the EDM realm, Laura Brehm emerges from her chrysalis to reveal her debut full length album, ‘The Dawn Is Still Dark.’ The self-produced record showcases the diverse talent of the Denver-based songwriter, producer, and musician.

Laura crafts delicate and powerful pop ballads, intertwining electronic and orchestral threads. She delves into personal battles with anxiety, as well as the collective anxiety of impending climate change.

“My new album is a play on the phrase we’ve all heard, ‘it’s darkest before the dawn.’ The title puts a twist on this by conveying it’s still dark outside when you expected the sunrise. It’s generally about times in our lives where we feel that we have waited so long, we have done all we can, we are at the end of our strength, and when we think we’ll finally be arriving at the end of the tunnel, more darkness awaits. However, with the strength you have gained through the process, you are able to ascend through the darkness. It’s very meaningful to me because it comes from my own personal experience with anxiety, insomnia, unhealthy relationships, and escapism. I hope to help the listener process through their own similar emotions and leave them with a feeling of strength, inspiration, or renewal by the time they’ve listened through.”

Laura Brehm’s album The Dawn Is Still Dark is available now via AntiFragile Music. Listen/download here: https://ffm.to/_thedawnisstilldark
