The Shadowboxers x Scott Tyler Schwartz – Young & Old
(Spotify)

“Listen carefully to this charming song. Music falls like waterfall on your fragile shoulders, forcing to shudder from each word and beautiful performance. Cozy and pleasant single for your soul. Enjoy!”

“Послушайте внимательно то, о чём поётся в этой очаровательной песне. Музыка словно водопадом падает на ваши хрупкие плечи, заставляя содрогаться от каждого слова и красивого исполнения. Лёгкая и максимально приятная услада для вашей души. Наслаждайтесь!”

Young & Old is a song for anyone who’s been at something for a while. Who’s been swimming and swimming - only to turn around and still see the shore. It’s a weird feeling when the number on the odometer is high, and you can point to the miles that have been traveled, and yet you’re not as far along as that distance would suggest. It’ll make you question your measuring system, and certainly your route, and you’ll wonder what you have to show for all that time you’ve spent plugging away.

Gaute Storsve Trio – Einar
(Spotify)

“"Gaute Storsve Trio" present their new single in melancholic mood at this time. An interesting fusion of Jazz and Neoclassic sounds, dedicated to a loved person. Recommended for all violin-sensitive ears, "Einar" will leave its sign inside your mind.”

-Nagamag.com

This is the second single from Gaute Storsve Trio’s upcoming album “El gran Gotzilla”. The title refers to Gaute’s granddad Einar, who recently passed away. It is written as a homage to an amazing man gradually disappearing through dementia.

It was originally intended to be a trio track, but one day Ingrid Berg Mehus visited the studio and added a totally new dimension with her beautiful violin playing.

AndRave – Gibbi – Radio Edit
(Spotify)

“Do you feel frustrated and exhausted? Just pick the suitable music and free your mind from every presure. This smooth Progressive House track brigdes the gap between deep ralaxation and dancing mood. Wide background pads, craftfully combined with poping beat and colourful melodic samples.”

-Nagamag.com

AndRave is a rising producer specializing in deep, organic and progressive house.

Yet another soul lost to the world of synths. Hailing from the very middle of the Russia, he has been working on his sound for quite some time, traversing many genres, resulting in a unique blend of happiness and emotions.

AndRave has established a unique signature as a designer of infectious beats, syncopated rhythms and impelling melodies and has solidified his place within the electronic music community with ongoing support from electronic tastemaker labels Seshling (US), Judi (BE), Green Nights (SP) and Eventandrave Records (RU).

Club DJ transitioned to music production in 2019, and shortly thereafter his debut "Gibbi" EP was mentioned on ITunes Top EDM singles list of 2021.

AndRave has deep roots in the progressive genre that have helped his production career to grow exponentially since his "Total Ignore" first EP.

A second "Condor" EP, was released by Judi Records, hit number two on the Beatport TOP 100.

There’s a depth of concept in each he release that gives you the sense he knows what it’s like to be rescued by the music. He’s among the few who can channel his experiences into something that resonates with a wide audience.

Continuing a slowly growing emphasis on song form, "Magical Fores" topped the Seshling Records chart. Also "Lucky Worms" EP became his first Beatport TOP 100 deep house number one.

AndRave masterminds musical spaces in which anything feels possible. He brings a human element to the infinite sonic horizons that characterize the organic genre.

The following year, AndRave launched his own Eventandrave Records label, marking the occasion with the single "Space Bull". More label releases followed quickly including the "Mandela FX" EP with Sergey Kutsuev.

With wordless wonderment, each soundscape manages to remind you that even in free fall, you’re capable of anything. At least in AndRave's case, imagination knows no limit. With his career breakout under way, make sure you don’t sleep on this emerging talent

Mario Varvarikis – Hope Street

Ethan Gold – Storm Coming
(Video)

“Ethan Gold with such a thrill, transfer his feelings that fully justify the name of this beautiful and lyrical composition. You can immediately feel the smell of rain, green foliage and electrified air particles. Bliss in every sound!”

“Автор и исполнитель с таким трепетом передаёт свои чувства, которые полностью оправдывают название этой красивой и лирической композиции. Сразу чувствуется запах дождя, зелёной листвы и наэлектризованные частички воздуха. Блаженство в каждом звуке!”

-Nagamag.com

Looking for a new rabbit-hole to dive down? Try hanging out with the visionary, metamorphic spirit of Ethan Gold for a song or a season. The San Francisco-bred, Los Angeles-based global-citizen indie singer/songwriter/director/dharma-dream-scaper has probably experienced some level of heartbreak, joy, contemplation, or angst that you can relate to. And where many of us kick, scream, love, and stuff things down, Mr. Gold turns them into transformative artful expressions. Through personal loss, physical trauma, and both literally and metaphorically toxic living situations (see his Pitchfork and London Times touted, self-produced debut album Songs from a Toxic Apartment) he’s opened his heart through music, and transformed pain into perception.

Right now, Mr. Gold is launching his return to live performances, with solo shows through northern Europe centered around a trilogy of LPs that explore the experience of being a 21st century earthling. The singles featured below come from the first installment, Earth City 1: The Longing.

Gold’s next release, “Storm Coming,” is a moody, dreamlike song that anticipates a future that may be either one of romance or of regret. Dedicated to Gold’s friend and manager the late Irish musician Joe Cassidy, the cascading guitar and Gaelic snares steer us through stages of grief—not only for Gold’s friend but for the fate of our ailing planet. Eventually, the somber denial and sadness give way to distorted guitars shouting anger and reverent martial melodies straining for acceptance. Gold’s understated lyrics balance the natural imagery with self-reflective spiritual inquiry.

Video director Paul Khera, who was photographer and artist for Suede and other Brit Pop bands, chose to heighten the environmental message in the lyric video. His sequence of stately monochrome encounters between the natural and manmade worlds captures the futility of discussions about the global climate, by presenting impactful data points that disappear within seconds, making them unintelligible, like ignored warnings in the midst of the storm of imagery and song. Ultimately we’re left to contemplate Gold’s mournful, final question: “Why did you wait so long?”

Rebecca Clarke x Dana Zenobi x Oliver Worthington x Chuck Dillard – Sleep
(Spotify)

“Beautiful as if morning Sun, opera with accompanying piano on the background. It's amazing how you can convey all those feelings in such a minimalistic sound. Nothing superfluous, only the pulse of delicate silence reminds itself.”

“Прекрасное, словно утреннее солнышко оперное пение с аккомпанирующим пиано на фоне. Удивительно, как можно передать все чувства в таком минималистическом звучании. Ничего лишнего, лишь только пульс безмолвной тишины напоминает о себе.”

-Nagamag.com

Navona Records presents JOYS ABIDING, an album of vocal duets by female composers including previously unpublished duets by British-American composer Rebecca Clarke, the text of which inspired the album title. The extensive track list of duets from the Baroque, Classical, and Romantic periods is performed by Dana Zenobi, soprano, Oliver Worthington, baritone, Chuck Dillard, piano/harpsichord, and David Murray, double bass. JOYS ABIDING aims to elevate the important work of female composers who have historically been excluded from the male-dominated classical duet canon.
