Devon shared with us few words about her new song:
"Careful" is an exciting new single off Devon's empowered EP, Sitting Up Straight. The song is about knowing one's worth and being ready to walk away from a relationship. The EP is currently up over 200k streams on Spotify, and it has received some awesome editorial playlisting from Apple Music (New In Pop) and Tidal (Rising: Pop). Devon was able to celebrate the release with a livestream concert in partnership with Sam Ash Music Stores - check out the recap video here!

"The title of this EP comes from a line in the first song that says "Being with you is like sitting up straight, I just can't do it sometimes." I wrote these songs during a period of self-actualization, and I hope that they help provide feelings of hope and of empowerment to all who listen." ~ Devon

Katherine Evans – Make You Mine (Spotify)

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

“Contemplative and soulful vocals by -Katherine Evans- on her new song -Make You Mine- tight together with a soaring entrancing bottome groove and melodic line. ”

-Nagamag.com

LA-based songwriter Katherine Evans has a passion for dark, emotional pop. Using chillingly confessional lyrics and infectious melodies, she glamorizes the messiness of being in your early 20s; disguising her introspective tone in catchy choruses and dreamy soundscapes. Ranging from stoically cynical to recklessly dreamy, Katherine evokes a plethora of emotions in her songs—each one a different side of her. Her most recent release, Make You Mine, is a bittersweet anthem about being in a toxic relationship.

CARDS – Reignite (Official Audio) (Video)

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

“Cards knows how to build a story and this is proved here with -Reignite-. Unfolding his vocal technics and forming a warm companion of right placed guitar harmonies, smart use of reverb and in general the right layering of keys and more sounds, glued brilliant together to daydream you to the end before realize it. Wonderful flow with shades of nostalgia.”

-Nagamag.com

“Reignite,” is a song that definitely marks a change in my sound and I’m happy to get it out into the world. After leaving LA in March and winding up in Ohio, I pulled out a couple instruments I haven’t used in a while. The songs I’m about to release borrow elements from Country and Bluegrass but are 100% Indie Rock at their core. The lyrics are also influenced by my situation — it’s really a pain in the ass to be a fledgling indie artist and not be able to play live shows.

Nicole Catherine – Tears for Tomorrow (Video)

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

“-Nicole Catherine- with her skillful and reflective vocals on -Tears For Tomorrow- spreads her warmness, especially when the verse comes, like a warm blanket in a cold winter. Carefully selection of keys and beats that support perfect this angelic voice. ”

-Nagamag.com

Nicole Catherine shared few words about her new song: ‘Tears for Tomorrow’ is all about the importance of vulnerability and the importance of having hope for the future. I wrote the song as a way for myself to get my feelings onto paper. I would describe the song overall as more of a sad song, however, the meaning behind the song is positive. I would say that Halsey and Billie Eilish are my main influences when it comes to music. I love the way Halsey writes her songs, and turns each of her songs into a beautiful story. I love the production in every one of Billie’s songs, and the dynamics in the vocals.

Tafari Anthony – No Good (Official Audio) (Video)

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

“There are some track which not take more than 5 seconds to win you attention, this effect has and – No Good- from Tafari Anthony. Spreading a lush harmonic music layering with clean sound and solid production and his exuberant – unique colored voice – which sings with passion and collateral beauty. A song that turns fast into your classic and favorites in your playlists. ”

-Nagamag.com

Tafari (pronounced Ta-far-eye) Anthony is a Toronto based artist whose music blends Pop, R&B and Soul. He is an artist who embodies the spirit of the modern musician. Not just a musician, but a creator. Known for his sleek vocal tones, sultry melodies and music which oozes with personality, Tafari leaves listeners in awe – somewhat apt considering his name means “He who inspires awe”.

His influences range from artists like Prince and John Legend, to more contemporary artists like Lennon Stella and Charlie Puth, among others. Often described as a mix of Sam Smith and MNEK, Tafari creates deeply emotional songs that resonate across generations. “All of these artists are creating music that is pop in its own right, but also so different from each other”, shares the musician.

Having taken a break from music in 2018 to focus on creating new material which explored his own personal soundscape, Tafari returned early 2020 with the release of his pop anthems, “Centerfold” and “Live in a Dream.” Now he unveils the emotional “No Good,” produced by Alexander Flockhart (Off Bloom, Vera, Malou Prytz, What So Not, Kill J).

The impassioned song narrates how some relationships are just no good for us, yet we somehow still end up pursuing them for whatever reason. Tafari confides, “It takes a lot of self-reflection to be able to realize these patterns in ourselves and even more to get out of them once we are aware. No Good is the come down and reflection after Centerfold’s blow up! Realizing that you crave the unhealthiness of the relationship. Personally, I often let people treat me like shit for way longer than I should – but once I’m done, I’m done.”

Having found influence in female powerhouse vocalists such as Seinabo Sey, King Princess and Alicia Keys, “No Good” delivers a classic vibe, but through a modern approach. Tafari’s raw, almost broken vocals portray sincerity in his lyrics, while the powerful production emits a fiery atmosphere. The stunning, heartfelt ballad oozes nostalgia with Tafari reminiscing of a love now lost.

Tafari has seen success with his music garnering acclaim from the likes of PAPER Magazine, Gay Times and MTV to name a few. He has been nominated for a Toronto Independent Music Award and receives regular airplay on CBC Radio, with one of his singles being named one of CBC’s Most Influential Songs of 2016. The singer has also performed alongside Shangela (RuPaul’s Drag Race) and has performed at Toronto’s Dundas Square and Massey Hall. “No Good” is off of the upcoming EP The Way You See Me, due later this year.

Dimension – Remedy (Spotify)

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

“One of the UK's leading artists on electronic music just debut his latest single under the title Remedy featuring TS Gray on vocals and one thing is certain it will storm the charts and dancefloors with its distinct and well-defined uplifting aesthetic. A video clip shot on location in Mont Saint – Michael, France will follow short after the release”

-Nagamag.com

Released on 16 October, ‘Remedy’ is the third single from Dimension’s forthcoming debut album. ‘Remedy’features vocals from future star TS Graye, and was co-written by renowned singer-songwriter Raye, who has previously worked on Dimension singles ‘Desire’ and ‘Black Church’. The forthcoming music video was shot on location in Mont Saint-Michel, France.

‘Remedy’ follows ‘Saviour’, which was co-written with ​Jem Cooke (Camelphat ‘Breathe’) and features ​Sharlene Hector. Released in the summer, ‘Saviour’ has had in excess of 3 million global streams, was made Tune Of The Week on BBC Radio 1, featured on Spotify playlists New Music Friday UK, Massive Dance Hits, and saw Dimension grace the cover of New Dance Revolution. Two more singles will be released before the album in February 2021.

With touring on hold in 2020 due to the pandemic, Dimension celebrated the release of ​‘Saviour’ ​with a ​special livestream event featuring top of the range production from a secret UK venue. The close of 2019 saw him unveil ​DIMENSION LIVE​, his sold-out debut live show at London’s prestigious Electric Brixton that attracted critical acclaim from ​Mixmag, RA, DJ Mag, Red Bull​, and beyond. The first immersive, multi-sensory experience in dance music, the show debuted ​Dimension’s showpiece glass mechanical structure - the centrepiece of a production that included a 50-piece state-of-the-art lighting system, laser walls, the largest ever LED screen to be installed in the venue, pyrotechnics and for the first time in a live music environment, scentology.

Followed closely by his debut ​BBC Radio One Essential Mix​, ​DIMENSION LIVE capped 12 months that began with the success of ​‘Desire’, ​his collaboration with ​Sub Focus​. The record’s list of achievements is near endless; it spent ​9 weeks on Radio 1’s playlist (5 on the A-list), has amassed over ​50 million ​global streams to date and has been certified a ​silver single ​in the UK by BPI (200,000 sales). Following ‘Desire’ ​came ​Dimension’s ​next string of solo releases, ​‘Devotion’ featuring Cameron Hayes, ‘If You Want To’ and ​‘Love To Give’ which all rapidly picked up midweek ​Annie Mac support alongside ​BBC Radio 1 plays from ​Phil Taggart’s Hype Chart​, ​Mistajam and ​Rene LaVice​; and together, combining in over ​20 million g​lobal streams to date.

On the live front, having begun last summer at ​Radio 1’s Big Weekend​, ​Dimension toured worldwide including Australia and New Zealand, North America and a return to Ibiza for another Amnesia residency at ​Together​. Other notable appearances included ​Glastonbury, Reading & Leeds, Creamfields, EDC Las Vegas, Audioriver, Dreambeach, and Beats For Love​. Further shows will be announced in due course, which will include a headline LIVE show at the groundbreaking ​Printworks London​.

Dimension’s combination of seemingly effortless musicality and production prowess first caught the attention of producers and DJs such as ​Andy C, Sub Focus, Chase & Status, Annie Mac (5x Hottest Records), Skrillex (who remixed the much-lauded ​‘UK’​), and ​deadmau5​. What was once one of dance music’s best kept secrets, but now with a rapidly growing global profile, ​Dimension is fast becoming one of the UK’s most notable – and intriguing – artists.
