"Special" is a groovy, genre-bending track from Braden the Young's debut album, SUPER. It's a crooning love song about treating your significant other like the prince/princess they are. Stylistically it employs Braden's signature electronic-RnB-meets-bedroom-indie-rock approach. Outer space synths give way 70s-inspired guitars. The song was recorded at Braden's home studio in Portland, OR and is released under Middleborn Music.

Patrick Ames – No People Are Supreme
(Spotify)

“In this classic Folk Rock, a pleasant minimalism is felt that manifests itself in the lyrics. There are many rich images, ideas and meaning in the text, and they are performed -patrick ames - quite briefly and concisely. It's nice to listen and enjoy the work of this quality.” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)

Artist said about this song

"The refrain came in an instant. I don’t know from where but maybe a result of my constant doom-scrolling on the mobile. World news is tough to digest but one message kept coming back during this dark times: no people were supreme. After the first take it started to sound like the Doors and then it became a magnet for more similes as we progressed. I put in some trippy lyrics for 1960’s Jim Morrison, and Jon Ireson, the producer, piled on with vinyl record scratches to start the track. Jon’s instrumentation is both present and supportive, a difficult task with such subject matter. At the end I wanted to showcase the refrain and its ability to make the listener sing the words, repeat the phrase, and make it true if only by repetition. To be frank, I wish this had been written so many decades ago – maybe it would have done some good by now."

Harry Nathan & BOONIE – Bus Stop

Harry Nathan & BOONIE – Bus Stop
(Spotify)

“A groovy track is rising in the scene of House and has the sound of a busy road! Modern ideas meet the old-school lines for a unique result. Fasten your seatbelts and repeatedly move your head with that bouncy beat.”

-Nagamag.com

At the heels of their collaborative single “Porsche Limousine”, the twins continue surveying themes of vehicles in motion by synthesizing the humbled surroundings of a “Bus Stop.”

Moving to the pace of a monochromatic beat, this lounge-house remedy draws listeners in with a soft intro before evolving into a jazzy, full-bodied composition. Nuanced with synthwave accents cut by talkbox vocals, “Bus Stop” is a future-forward listen that keeps nostalgia in its peripheral.

Punctuated by its infectious looseness, Harry Nathan and BOONIE excel at crafting leisurely musical worlds designed to bring the sounds of the indie-dance underground to the global spotlight with a vogue-like tranquility.

"I added the car sounds in the intro..." says BOONIE, which he explains he recorded from his neighbour’s Holden HSV in Bankstown. “... it’s actually a V8 Chevy LS9 engine made in the USA, for the ZR1 Corvette. Holden imported them for the final run of HSV’s in 2017. They’re bloody quick!”

Singer and producer Harry Nathan, alongside twin brother Evangelos ‘Boonie’ Labrakis, offered a beacon of hope just as COVID dealt the final blow to Sydney’s club scene in 2021. The boys repurposed a corrugated metal shed, aptly named the ‘Doof Shed’, turning it into a nightclub with a dancefloor that spans just 1.53m x 0.74m. The Doof Shed is equipped with a Focal sound system, Pioneer DJ setup, intelligent lighting and a kitschy “Full Send” button, which activates a smoke machine, strobe, flashing lights and lasers for audience members who seek to experience the full sensory soirée.

Harry conceptualised the 1.5m club in order to provide one on one music experiences for his closest friends and family. With a little help from his father Evangelos Labrakis Sr. and twin brother Boonie, they created the COVID-safe space that just so happened to fit within the parameters of setting a Guinness World Record for the World’s Smallest Mobile Nightclub.

Nathan Kawanishi x Fletcher Reed – Essential Mystic
(Spotify)

“There is no stronger drug in the world than music, and when it is still shrouded in a warm-hop warm wave, then your pleasure has no limit. The wandering melody so gently and harmoniously walks around the stereo that you feel like a fallen star that scattered to the ground with billions of fragments.” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)

“Нет в мире более сильного наркотика, чем музыка, а когда она ещё окутана теплой волной chill-hop, то вашему наслаждению нет предела. Блуждающая мелодия так нежно и гармонично гуляет по всему стерео полю, что чувствуешь себя упавшей звездой, которая рассыпалась на землю миллиардами осколков.”

-Nagamag.com

"This mixtape consists of a bunch of unreleased songs that Fletcher Reed and I had laying around," reflects Nathan Kawanishi about the album "Recycled Tape." "We sent them to each other to finish (or salvage), hence the name of the tape. There was really no formula, sometimes only minor tweaks were made and at other times the new track sounds entirely different from the old one. All of the production and mixing roles were also very free-flowing, with both of us alternating on the drums, engineering, and main instruments. The result is a project that hopefully feels very much like an organic mixtape instead of a linear album."

Kazi Jay – Lucid Lullabies
(Spotify)

“Each has its own lullaby, and in -kazi jay is in the melodic rhythms of Indie pop and with a rich atmosphere, as if if you plunged into the warm waters of the blue ocean. This track as a living organism is a reasonable, breathing and created as a result of true love.” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)

“У каждого своя колыбельная, а у -Kazi Jay- она в мелодичных ритмах indie pop и с насыщенной атмосферой, словно бы если вы окунулись в тёплые воды голубого океана. Этот трек как живой организм – разумный, дышащий и созданный в результате настоящей любви.”

-Nagamag.com

Artist said about this song?:

"Its as if in one moment, we know exactly who we are, and the next, utter confusion floods our entire projection of the story we believe we are living. I wrote Lucid Lullabies cooped up in my fathers attic where I had to live just after the world shut down in 2020, amid grieving the loss of my mother months before, and while Id love to say those feelings of wondering and the unknown are behind me, its 2022, and "Holding it together just for everybody else," are still the lyrics that find their way into theme of my life when the pressure of being who others perceive me to be bares its weight. I wrote this song to soothe my mind, not putting to much thought into the words, it was always about how the sound of the riffs and sounds flowed out of me that brought me the most comfort. As time as passed, the parables and hidden meaning within the once “thoughtless lyrics” now make more sense to me than ever before. For every listener this song means something very different to them, as there is no definitive way to map out the process of confusion to revelation, but my hope is that it can be a lullaby for them as they navigate through it. ** Written fully by me, as well as I helped co produce this record with Joshua Catalan (Wainona Oak, Caroline Polacheck,) and mixed by Bryan Cooke (Cold Play, One republic) "
