Scoobert Doobert – I’m an Idiot
(Spotify)

“Really feeling the plush beat here, warm fuzzed out Bass sounds so good. Words echo beautifully in this well through out easygoing track. ”

-Nagamag.com

"I'm an idiot is a reflection of self-doubt turned into self-love. A negative affirmation becoming a statement of freedom. It's a song lamenting and celebrating the fact that everyone on this planet is an idiot, each in their own special way. To me, the people who don't view themselves as fools, are the biggest idiots of all. But that's a pretty stupid statement." — Scoobert Doobert

Indie-pop's boy wonder Scoobert Doobert is sharing "I'm an Idiot". A toe tapping self-deprecating reminder of the absurd nature of our collective existential dilemma, in the form of a sonic hug to the self-aware. The more our island of knowledge grows, so does our vast shoreline of what we don't know. We would adore any support you are open to, Scoob is also happy to do interviews, guest playlist curation etc. We are really open to collaboration.

Australian band Midnight at 7 share their debut single ‘Never Be In Love Again’, out September 3rd on all streaming platforms.

Heavily inspired by Justin Timberlake and Maroon 5 'Never Be In Love Again' is an uptempo track that hides a somber subject inside a track that will have you in your feels as you are dancing your heart out. The vocalist of the band (Ryan De Ocampo) wrote the track about the feeling of hopelessness when love ends when you don't want to find someone new, because the pain that you are feeling in that moment doesn’t allow you to see its worth. Yet deep down you know that it is always worth it, because when you do find someone special the pain you went through won’t matter.

"We are relatable, normal people that want to create world class music and just provide a positive atmosphere for people away from politics or social issues. We create music for music's sake and for the enjoyment of everyone." - Midnight At 7

Midnight At 7 is formed of music trio Ryan De Ocampo, Daniel Pinto and Daniel Nesci. Each coming from diverse musical backgrounds, these three up-and-comers are united by their love for pop sensibilities. There’s a shared respect for a song that can make you nod your head or get you on the dancefloor – even songs that reflect on life and shared experiences, as Never Be In Love Again shows.

Never Be In Love Again marks the first of many tracks the trio aim to release. Although COVID has put the future of live music on hold, Midnight At 7 are using the time wisely – crafting a set-list to perfection for a potential run of future shows. Keep an eye on this space – Never Be In Love Again marks the start of greater things to come like Never Be In Love Again.

KB Mike – Used To
(Video)

“You can hear how a vocalist imposes every moment that seemed suitable for imparting an atmosphere. Magnificent Hip-hop rhythms instantly attract attention on -used to- with a need to repeat again and again.”

“Слышно, как вокалист улучает каждый момент, который показался подходящим для придания атмосферы. Великолепная подача материала, насыщенные ритмы Hip-Hop мгновенно притягивают к себе внимание и заставляют включать -Used To- снова и снова.”

-Nagamag.com

In the visual directed by AJ Spitz [G Herbo, Lil Eazzyy], KB Mike sits at an old school typewriter where he punches out one letter after another to his ex. Those letters pile up on her bed only to be discarded in a flurry of tears. Despite looking for love elsewhere, they both magnetically find one another again in a romantic reunion. The breakup-to-makeup story serves as the perfect complement to the track.

“Used To” continues to gain traction, racking up over 11 million streams to date. At the same time, he’s already received looks from HotNewHipHop, REVOLT and more.

About KB Mike:

From the Marquette Park and Gage Park sections of Chicago’s historic Southside, 20-year-old KB Mike dodged the pitfalls of violence and poverty through art. “Music is what keeps me focused and out of harm’s way. That’s really how I navigated through all of Chicago’s stuff,” the fresh-faced artist with the confident flow and melodic voice admits. After a breakthrough 2020 that included high-six-figure engagements on Soundcloud, Instagram, and Facebook, Mike is already revved up for 2021, when he will release his anticipated full-length debut.

From a young age, KB Mike endured losing loved ones to the streets and drugs. Having found popularity in high school and the community, KB Mike tried his hand at rapping in 2018. What began as acapella freestyles to others’ songs during house arrest evolved into something far greater two years later. “Deep In Love” blends soft strings and accents with an authentically contemporary understanding of young romance. That knack for relationship rap also shines on “Drunk Texting,” a song where listeners can hear Mike’s emerging singing alongside his in-the-pocket flow. With over 2 million streams combined, these songs are two of the dozen or so that introduced a talented artist in 2020. On the heels of late January’s successful video single “Revenge,” Mike vows to step forth with his debut mixtape. In the meantime, a standout versatile voice from the Windy City is taking flight.

Boon – Somebody Else
(Spotify)

“Very interesting approach of sound with elements from a variety of genres. "Boon" has the talent of combining EDM, Indie, Pop (or even more) and here's a nice example. Full of personal beauty, "Somebody Else" has to add something significant in our musical experience. Just listen and see what we mean!”

-Nagamag.com

The new single from Nashville-based experimental artist/multi-instrumentalist and producer Boon, who is known for his masterful mix of genre-bending sounds that meld together a combination of rock, trap, blues, electronic, R&B and pop. His single "Somebody Else" is "a semi-depressing song which is disguised sonically as a feel good, pop record. Boon further confides, "I love the irony of having an anthem about being a horrible person and telling your significant other they could do better."

Boon's music has been added to playlists including Spotify's New Music Friday, Salt and Apple's Alternative and his TikTok videos with blackbear recently went viral, amassing millions of streams. Thank you for your consideration.

Nashville's very own, Boon, the 18-year old writer, singer, mixer, producer, and master of all his own music- not to mention shoots and directs all of his videos- has immersed himself into the music industry at a young age with his father as Carrie Underwood's lead guitarist since the start of her career. Boon's releases "i might like u" and "You" were featured on Spotify's "New Music Friday", "Fresh Finds", "hyperpop", "Salt", and Apple's "Alternative" playlists. Boon exemplifies the meaning of creating his own unique sound and style of production, classifying him as a true, young prodigy. His last release "Can't Be Love" features an enhanced rock driven sound that is heard throughout his upcoming project. His single "Somebody Else" is out on all platforms September 7th.

Despite his young age, Boon is making a claim of the new wave. i

Wallners – Dracula
(Spotify)

“The bright title of track -Dracula- can instantly cause attention. It traces a clear thread of narration, style and integrity. Probably one of the few works where Indie & Dream Pop are so competently matched. Valuable sound and professional mix!”

“Яркое название трека -Dracula- моментально акцентирует на себе внимание. В нём прослеживается чёткая нить повествования, стиль и целостность. Наверное, одна из немногих работ, в которой так грамотно подана энергетика жанров Indie & Dream Pop. Выверенный звук и профессиональная подача материала!”

-Nagamag.com

Wallners are back with their new single "Dracula" and dive even deeper into their mysterious dream pop world. Not quite a year ago as one of the most important newcomer bands from Austria, the success of the four siblings has long since exceeded that. Wallners are a band with an international stature that continues to write, record and produce its music on its own at home. With "Dracula" Wallners take a step further in their development and also in the expansion of their unmistakable, mystical-wonderful sound. The music video is once again provided by the award-winning director Rupert Höller, who most recently won the Austrian Music Video Prize with the video for Wallner's single "All Again" was nominated.

Wallners sind zurück mit ihrer neuen Single „Dracula“ und tauchen noch tiefer ein in ihre geheimnisvolle Dreampop Welt. Vor nicht ganz einem Jahr als eine der wichtigsten Newcomerbands aus Österreich gehandelt, geht der Erfolg der vier Geschwisterschon längst darüber hinaus. Wallners sind eine Band mit internationalem Format, die ihre Musik nach wie vor im Alleingang zuhause schreibt, aufnimmt und produziert. Mit „Dracula“ gehen Wallnerseinen Schritt weiter in ihrer Entwicklung und auch im Ausbau ihres unverkennbaren, mystisch-wunderbaren Sounds.Das Musikvideo liefert einmal mehr der preisgekrönte Regisseur Rupert Höller, der zuletzt mit dem Video zur Wallners Single „All Again“ für den österreichischen Musikvideopreis nominiert wurde.

https://www.instagram.com/wallners

The newcomers Wallners - four young siblings from Vienna - feel comfortable while dreaming and playing with thoughts. The story of Nino (20), Max (23) and the twins Anna and Laurenz (25) almost sounds like a dream itself: After years of tinkering in the living room, they sent demos to various labels without any great expectations. Never ever would they have imagined that they would land straight at Universal Music. But you can hear why: The quartet's debut single compares to a gaze into an enchanted kaleidoscope, presenting itselfas an unmistakable and highly polished sound. Wallners’ hypnotic dream pop will take theirlisteners on an exciting journey somewhere between illusion and reality.
