I Want Poetry – Souvenirs
(Spotify)

“Expressive vocals on top of multiple synth samples, forming a song with unpredictable flow. Lay back and dive into the wide Indietronica atmosphere of "Souvenirs". Music which can leave its sign in every anxious spirit.”

-Nagamag.com

I WANT POETRY are vocalist Tine von Bergen and pianist Till Moritz Moll. Together they are creating atmospheric dream pop songs with expressive vocals and haunting lyrics reminiscent of London Grammar or Woodkid. "Souvenirs," the duo's new song, looks at the all-too-human desire to hold onto the fleeting precious moments of our lifes.

"I'm gonna stow my days in boxes full of what I loved the most."

These mementos are infused with the desire for meaning: What will remain of us? What do we leave behind? What do we take with us?

The track itself resembles a collection of sonic souvenirs: together with producer Michael Vajna (Malky), I WANT POETRY interweave electronic sounds, experimental sounds and acoustic instruments with a driving beat, drawing the listener into a vortex of hazy memories. The production also features sound engineer Ghian Wright (Oasis).

Oftentimes it's the inconspicuous things that endure: having listened, having found the right words at the right time. Having been there for one another.

"Sometimes I feel like me and you we are the souvenirs."

The hypnotic pull of the music is paired with an equally otherworldly video that gives a feeling of being an observer in a stranger's dream.

"Souvenirs" is taken from the EP "Solace", which will be released in May 2022.

Forenzics x Washington – Unlikely Friend (feat. Washington) (Video)
(Spotify)

“"Unlikely Friend" is one of those works that don't require adaptation, as it's pure music without unnecessary embellishments. The energy of Jazz flows like a warm stream, penetrating into the most secret corners of the human soul and leaving a bright mark there.”

“Это одно из тех произведений, которые не требуют адаптации, это — чистая, без лишних на то прикрас музыка. Энергетика джаза льётся тёплым потоком, проникая в самые потайные уголки человеческой души, оставляя там своей яркий след.”

-Nagamag.com

"New Zealand’s Split Enz disbanded in 1984, but numerous reunions, classical collaborations and re-imaginings have always pulled former members – Neil Finn and Tim Finn among them – back into its orbit. Nothing, however, has been as musically ambitious as Forenzics, Tim and Enz keyboard player Eddie Rayner’s deep delve into the bands earliest days. Taking what the pair refer to as “shades” from tracks such as Walking Down the Road and Matinee Idyll (129) from their 1976, Phil Manzanera – produced LP Second Thoughts, and the later, should have been a hit Give It A Whirl, Finn and Rayner rebuild entirely new songs, alongside seven actual entirely new songs....

Quinn Sternberg – June
(Spotify)

“The breath of wind instruments, the light rustle of percussion and the huge abundance of feelings that pour through the speakers. Find out an immersive effect indescribable in words. An authentic emotional euphoria, which reflects "Quinn Sternberg" sincere love for music.”

“Дыхание духовых инструментов, лёгкий шелест перкуссий и огромное изобилие чувств, которые льются сквозь динамики. Непередаваемый словами эффект погружения. Настоящая эмоциональная эфория, в которой отражается искренняя любовь авторов к музыке.”

-Nagamag.com

The second single from Cicada Songs, the sublime “June” (out Feb 18), best illustrates Sternberg’s departure from the traditional soloist vs. band structure of most jazz ensembles. “I just told everyone in the band, like, no one’s the soloist, we’re just playing,” notes the composer. Indeed, it’s hard to hear any one instrument take the fore in “June”. It’s very much a sum of all parts, with Quinn’s bass interjecting melodic fragments under interweaving lines tossed between Sam’s saxophone and Charlie’s guitar, with echoes of all in the bell tones coaxed from the Rhodes piano by Oscar and cleverly underpinned by the dexterous Peter Varnado’s drumming. Named for Quinn’s dog, “June” evokes images of a dog running through a field in a peaceful doggy dream. It’s a choose-your-own-adventure scene where you can pick a musical line to hang with, take in the ensemble sound as a whole, or just lie back and dream yourself.

Laele – I Am Here
(Spotify)

“Pulsating beat and angelic vocals from "Laele", fairly enough to captivate each listener. In the middle of its climax, the track opens up like a flower bud, before it falls asleep again, slowly lulling and driving you to the land of oblivion...”

“Пульсирующий бит и ангельский вокал -Laele-. Этого достаточно, чтобы заворожить своего слушателя. Трек к середине своей кульминации раскрывается словно цветочный бутон, а потом вновь засыпает, медленно убаюкивая и унося в страну забвения...”

-Nagamag.com

I Am Here is the third release of Laele in the run-up to the release of her debut EP. It's a song about someone who completely loses herself in love and can't seem to pick up herself when the relationship ends. For Ella, the singer and writer of the song, its all about the question how independent you can stay in a relationship and how dependent you can be without it becoming self-destructive.

(Spotify)

“Hypnotic melody, intoxicating beat, catchy lyrics and pronounced spirit of Old-school Hip-Hop style. Do you feel like your speakers vibrate? Then listen louder and feel this burning energy!”

Lyrical, great energy, fun, valence, and variety in flow/cadence.
