Beau – Even If You’re Gone

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

“An interesting intro on this piece takes us by surprise as the powerful and delightful sounds build. There is life after the incident, the process will continue. We really enjoyed artful approach and were quiet impressed with immaculate build up that really knows how to express power. ”

“Even If You’re Gone” is an emotional ode to heartbreak and longing. Lead singer Heather Goldin’s vocals personify the feelings of maintaining a connection with a person that has been lost to another. The instrumentals in the song ebb and flow between soaring choruses and softer, more reserved breaks, reflecting the rollercoaster of feelings a person may go through when heartbroken.

Beau says, “‘Even If You’re Gone’ is a song about losing the one you love to someone else. The song is about holding on and that even if the love of your life has found someone else, you can’t help but stay connected. This song is that connection.”

The video for “Even If You’re Gone” is a dramatic short film that, though created separately from the song, is perfectly soundtracked by the powerful new single in perfect compliment to one another. The story portrays the stress of a robbery and an illustration of dealing with deep grief, parallel to the song’s theme of missing someone you love.

Gillian Stone – Amends

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

“A story of memories set to an externalized battle of emotions and thoughts of distant connections. The hypnotic guitar takes us away as she explains her story. A great build up occurs and is well paced through the piece. Magnetically climaxing and releasing us within. ”

-Nagamag.com

Artist said about this release:

“Amends” is a vocally-driven post-rock/drone-folk song that explores self-mercy and accountability after an era of Anger, the second stage of grief. It is a nod to what I’ve learned through years of therapy about the power of naming. It is a fearless moral inventory, an understanding of the effect on self and other, an odyssey through four and five of The Twelve Steps. My recovery journey has been riddled with shame that still lives in my bones. The final line of the song, “regret is a wily muse, but I’ll name it out loud”, is an attempt to exorcize this shame from my body. By acknowledging the ruins of my Anger, I am attempting to destroy the destroyer.

I co-produced “Amends” with experimental e-cellist and multi-instrumentalist Michael Peter Olsen (Zoon, The Hidden Cameras, Arcade Fire), who I worked with on my two previous singles, “Bridges” and “Shelf”. When we recorded “Amends” I was experimenting with fingerpicking while holding the whammy bar on my Stratocaster while simultaneously running it through tape delay. I wanted to keep the song in a warbled state that challenged tempered tuning. We played with vintage synth layers: an ARP 2600 drone, MOOG bass, Arp Odyssey and Yamaha TX81Z ascending lines. The song hovers above the ground until the drums, played by Spencer Cole (Weaves), come in over halfway through. “Amends” was constructed in layers and steps, building from a gentle confession to a chaotic declaration.

The video for “Amends” was directed by Toronto filmmaker John M. Hall and me, with photography by Hall and Toronto photographer Joel Gale. It is a movement piece that conveys my body in fragments, drawing from the concept of the Split Self in Internal Family Systems. It builds into a cathartic somatic experience as I dance to fuse myself back together.

Moemaw Naedon & C.Scott – Awesome Environment

Categories: Hip-Hop, The Latest, Video|Tags: , , |

“In the new HIP-Hop track -moema naedon & c.scott is a rather diverse bit that merges into a single palette of mix sounds. Pleasant by ear overflow of synthesizers, pulsations of deep bass and just chic work on vocals and text!” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)

“В новым Hip-Hop треке -Moemaw Naedon & C.Scott- довольно разнообразный бит, который сливается в единую палитру звуков микса. Приятные на слух переливы синтезаторов, пульсации глубоких басов и просто шикарная работа над вокалом и текстом!”

-Nagamag.com

In their slick new video for “Awesome Environment,” Moemaw Naedon & C.Scott embrace the sunny, laidback summer vibes that inspired their collaborative album, River Rats, and provide a guided tour of some of Pittsburgh’s river banks.

What may not look like much to the every-day viewer was a true source of inspiration, meditation, and comfort for the duo, as explained by Moemaw himself. He and C.Scott would meet up during the summer of 2020 for riverside hangs that served as an escape from the harsh realities of the world.

“We were previewing each other’s new music from a Bluetooth speaker, sipping our favorite canned beverages, passing the smoke, and discussing the real-life situations that shaped the lyrical content on River Rats,” Moemaw said. “That’s what makes it an ‘Awesome Environment.’”

It was a bastion of both hope and creativity for the two artists, who found solace on the shores of rivers at a time when the country was consistently on fire. And it serves as a welcome reminder that sometimes, even when it seems counterintuitive, your best bet for sanity is to head outside and enjoy your surroundings. We all have our own awesome environment; it may just take some trial and error for you to find it.

Check out the visuals and head over to your preferred DSP to stream through your preferred platform. The album is also available on cassette in limited quantities via Soul Slime Records’ Bandcamp profile.

LEEPA – future

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

“If music decorates your mood in all the brightest colors, then you have found what will accompany you your whole life! Listen to the new single -leepa- and try to feel how the gardens of roses begin to bloom inside you, it is precisely such feelings that the Indie Pop melody and such sexual vocals cause!” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)

“Если музыка разукрашивает ваше настроение во все самые яркие цвета, значит вы нашли то, что будет сопровождать вас всю вашу жизнь! Послушайте новый сингл -LEEPA- и попробуйте прочувствовать, как внутри вас начинают расцветать сады из роз, именно такие чувства вызывает мелодия Indie Pop и такой сексуальный вокал!”

-Nagamag.com

future is the focus single of LEEPAs debut EP “brainfreeze” — she’s been selected as an international YT creator to watch and recently started touring, with festivals like Lollapalooza in sight.

“future” is a personal song – but it shows once again that, in LEEPA’s words, “we all feel the same for different reasons”. So it is in this case: “future” is the anthem of a generation lost, our generation lost, as it explains to us itself: “We look back on 2 years full of unexpected upheavals that we could never have expected 3 years ago. Suddenly it’s summer, all possibilities are open to us again – but many of us wonder how we can and should deal with the new freedom – and especially with a future that is full of uncertainty.”

rosie – Golden Age

“How often did you notice that the phone in your hands overshadowed your whole life and bright sunlight no longer pleases you as before. Familiar feeling? So the new single from -rosie is trying to reach your hearts, picking up the key to the locked doors. Open them.” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)

“Как часто вы замечали за собой, что телефон в ваших руках затмил всю вашу жизнь и яркий солнечный свет больше не радует вас как прежде. Знакомое чувство? Вот и новый сингл от -rosie- старается достучаться до ваших сердец, подбирая ключ к запертым дверям. Откройте их.”

-Nagamag.com

Rosie Darling is the kind of anomaly who pushes pop music forward by uncompromisingly embracing her own artistic impulses and following them to unprecedented heights. “I really believe less is more,” she exclaims. “I let the music speak for itself as the lyrics say something important for me. I don’t do things to get quick validation or views. If your art is authentic, it will reach its potential without having to think about it. I’m telling stories and putting myself into the lyrics.”

But, it’s also why the Boston-born and Los Angeles-based artist has effectively emerged as a phenomenon with millions of streams and widespread praise courtesy of FLAUNT, Wonderland, EARMILK, PopMatters, and many more. Rosie’s debut EP Coping introduced the world to her powerful, raw vocals and heart-on-her-sleeve writing. Reminiscent of her peers (Chelsea Cutler, Julia Michaels, & Olivia Rodrigo) yet uniquely herself, Darling has amassed legions of fans who were “smoking cheap pre-rolls and listening to LANY” alongside her. These fans boosted title track – “Coping” – Top 20 on Spotify’s Global Viral chart and tallying over 40 million streams to date and “establishing Rosie as a newcomer to watch in 2021” (House of Solo).

“The new track of the virtuoso master -aj wander-, who is ready to surprise not only his loyal fans, but also new listeners.

“Новый трек виртуозного мастера -AJ Wander-, который готов удивить не только своих преданных фанатов, но и новых слушателей. Вас ожидает отличная работа над вокалом, его подачей и текстом, шикарная аранжировка и в целом очень энергичная и хорошая атмосфера.”

-Nagamag.com

Thrilled to send you the poignant new single “Blue Lights” from English singer/songwriter AJ Wander. AJ confides on the release, “I wrote ‘Blue Lights’ after seeing someone overdose opposite my old flat. The song is me hoping that he still has a spark of hope left, that it was just a call for help.”

AJ Wander has found success with over 4 million streams on his debut single “Time Out” and has been added to such official Spotify playlists as Home Again and Fresh Finds Pop. His music is a cinematic blend of pop, rock and folk. Thanks for your consideration,

AJ Wander started his journey in the suburbs of south-east London. The son of a pianist, he began honing his unique musical sensibility at an early age. After living in Australia for several years in his youth, he returned to the UK to pursue a formal education at the prestigious Academy of Contemporary Music in Guildford. While enrolled, he joined indie band Tors, performing in front of thousands of people as part of the fast growing group.

Heeding the call to further explore his own creative identity as a solo artist, Wander departed Tors after 2 years. Diving deeper into his roots as a pianist, he built a fledgling career performing covers at piano bars and hotels across the UK, developing a ubiquitous playing style while garnering acclaim on a regional level as a rising star entertainer.

As the world reopened, Wander began to attract attention from industry leaders. He landed a management and distribution deal with USA based firm Elevation Group, along with a publishing agreement through BDi Music. His debut single “Time Out” established a style rooted in nuanced piano playing and vocals that have been compared to Lewis Capaldi and Dean Lewis. With over 5 million streams and editorial playlist placements across Spotify, Tidal, Amazon Music and Apple Music, his catalog of singles continues to grow and attract legions of new fans. His most recent track “When You Say I Love You” debuted early this year, with more music planned throughout 2022.

Tara MacLean – If I Fall

“Enjoy the angelic vocal -tara maclean-, its strong and emotional side, a unique timbre and a combination of elements of academic and pop music. Listening to this composition, you understand that music is one of the wonders of the world, like the divine voice -tara maclean-.” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)

“Наслаждайтесь ангельским вокалом -Tara MacLean-, его сильной и эмоциональной стороной, уникальным тембром и сочетанием элементов академической и поп-музыки. Слушая эту композицию понимаешь, что музыка это одно из чудес света, как и божественный голос -Tara MacLean-.”

-Nagamag.com

Internationally acclaimed Canadian East Coast singer/songwriter Tara MacLean is releasing a new version of her 2000 hit song, “If I Fall.” The re-recorded version comes from her new album, Sparrow.

The song was originally intended to be an upbeat and inspiring theme song for a TV show. Tara had never written music for anyone other than herself, and found that it was a wonderful exercise that allowed her to be unabashedly hooky in her approach. With this song, Tara wanted people to feel like there was nothing they couldn’t do.

“I love this part of the song because in re-recording it, I realized how prophetic this song has been for me, in my search for stillness, in my dreams coming true,” says Tara. “Now I look at my life and career and see how I have achieved so much of what I set out to do, and this song was a vehicle that brought me there.”

Her new album, Sparrow, is a companion soundtrack to her upcoming memoir about her life in music, which will be released with a major publisher in March 2023. The album is a reimagined collection of her past work, as well as brand new material.

Entitled “Boy Friday”, the song is from their forthcoming self-produced project and is an introspective narrative exploring the passing of time and the ebb and flow of changes that shape our lives. “On this one we were really interested in the idea of feeling excited and optimistic about the future, while simultaneously noticing, recognizing the passage of time more and the natural pressure it puts on you to try harder to get where you wanna go,” Noah of the band further confides. Featuring breezy synths, intoxicatingly lush melodies and funk-drenched basslines, “Boy Friday” is a dreamy indie rock escape with a French inspired touch.

The nostalgic lofi video directed by Ben Klein (Sundance 2022 winner) features Dylan and Noah of the band being “New Yorkers lost in an LA Dreamland,” says Dylan, and where Chris Black (How Long Gone Podcast) is their “great LA spiritual tour guide.”
