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.”

“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.

YLLOW & Vyel – Leave Me Alone (Video)

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

“Music is a medicine and your safe shelter when things not work out good, here YLLOW & Yvel offer us a music pill that will bring all the smiles back to face and goosebumps in your backbones. Beautiful euphoric harmonies and upbeat heartwarming vocals to start or end your day perfect! Leave Me Alone – now enjoy my music!”

-Nagamag.com

When YLLOW finished the first idea of his new instrumental track, he came up with an uplifting & living lead melody and an emotional chord progression. He then contacted Vyel via e-mail a year ago to ask him if he would be in to collaborate with him on his new track. Vyel wrote the lyrics and recorded the vocals, then YLLOW reworked the instrumental multiple times. Soon after the track was 100% finished, the duo sent it to WildVibes for a final mix & master.

This song is about not letting others define the choices and decisions of your life, and having the courage to trust oneself to take action and find your way without paying attention to the judgement of others.

As we are more and more people to feel alone in these strange times, this song is also a reminder that we can learn to appreciate and celebrate the times we spend alone.

If anxiety is often a downside in this situation, self-awareness is also its upside : when you know yourself well, you’re simply doing everyday what makes you happy. Is it listening to music? Is it making music? Or is it running maybe? Playing video games? Travelling the world and exploring? Reading a book? Cooking? Watching movies and series? Learning new skills?

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

“The perfect song to start your day with! Sweet upbeat vocals and delicate synthpop melodic lines in -Been Too Long- by -Dance Yourself Clean feat Lizzy Land- who knows who to tell a music story.”

-Nagamag.com

For their new song “Been Too Long”, Dance Yourself Clean teamed up with Lizzy Land to bring her ethereal vocals to their unique approach to indie-pop music reminiscent of The Naked And The Famous and CHVRCHES. A thumping bass line and kick create a solid rhythm section that enigmatic synth pads and stabbing pianos soar over. Lizzy’s crooning voice sings about the relatable feeling of missing a special someone from her past.

Dance Yourself Clean started in Seattle (2013) as an indie dance party that grew into the first touring dance party in North America. After moving to Los Angeles to expand the party and create their own record label (Lights & Music Collective) and producing for other artists for years, “DYC” decided to turn their party into a music project. Releasing original music and remixes using the party’s moniker “Dance Yourself Clean”.

Audriix – Deep Breaths (Video)

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

“Ta ta tara…yes a pretty solid yet minimal memorable melodic line and groove here and with a pretty playful signature style of Audriix, a combination of both production and performance skills along with good story telling, define your next favorite pop song here.”

-Nagamag.com

About this song:

Lake Tahoe, Nevada-based rising pop artist Audriix makes stellar inroads into 2020 with sky reaching new single, Deep Breaths. Big room electronic pop showcasing Audriix’s dreamy vocals atop a crystal sharp arrangement, the track serves as a stellar offering ahead of upcoming releases. Speaking on the track, Audriix states:

“Deep Breaths is a women empowerment song drawn from my personal experiences. It’s about standing up for yourself when someone tries to oppress you and unapologetically feeling your emotions.”

When it comes to pursuing her passion for music, Audriix is nothing less than a force of nature. Growing up in northern California, the singer/songwriter begged for violin lessons at age two and soon moved on to also mastering piano, viola, and singing (eventually adding guitar and drums as well). Having started writing songs at age six, she later self-produced her first batch of material in the midst of earning three degrees from Stanford University.

After releasing her debut EP Colors in 2015, Audriix released her full-length debut Status Change in 2019, bringing her voice to a brightly edgy brand of pop built on massive choruses and effervescent melodies. Her new single Deep Breaths continues the theme of empowerment, examining the culture of emotion suppression and silencing, all with a fearless honesty. “None of my songs portray the woman as the victim,” she says. “It’s all about being strong and standing up for yourself. I hope that listeners come away feeling empowered to do whatever they set their minds to.” Look out for more from Audriix soon.

John Dennis – Board Game Money (Spotify)

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

“For people in search of classic american rock music hearings Board game money is an exquisite example coming from a young artist that having been deeply inspired by folk's greatest like Dylan and Springsteen delivers smartly a memorable example with his own distinct character”

-Nagamag.com

John Dennis, a 27 year old Freeburg, IL native, moved to Nashville, TN in 2010 to pursue his unique place among the music there. Though his songs resonate with the influence of many of folk's greats--namely Dylan, Simon and Springsteen--his unique vocals, clever Midwestern-driven imagery, and 21st century socially commentative lyrics earn him his own distinct voice. In 2013 he was discovered by Dr. Bryan Clark of Rainfeather Records--a successful musician and producer in his own right. The pair worked together to complete John's first record with Rainfeather, "Eternity's Tree," which was released in 2014. The album features a colorful collection of Dennis' original work and displays strongly John's ability to deliver an enjoyable listening experience while not shying away from his characteristic weightiness and lyrical substance. In 2016, John, along with Clark and Rainfeather, recorded a follow up record entitled "Second Wind," which only built upon and deepened what was presented in his debut; and which marked a substantial and triumphant step forward for Dennis both artistically and personally. "Second Wind," was recorded at Plethoratone Studios in Brentwood, TN. Following its official release in 2017, Dennis began work on his third full length record: a concept album that will prove to be his most creatively ambitious project yet. “Mortal Flames,” recorded at Blackbird and Plethoratone studios, is slated for release in the early Spring of 2019.
