Odd Beholder – Accept Nature
(Video)

“Do you feel anxious and stressed? Trapped into a destructive routine. Find your chance to escape from maddness with this nice Synthwave song. Popping beat, dreamy melodies and Daniela’s charming voice won’t let you down!”

-Nagamag.com

Odd Beholder, the Electronica / Art Pop project from Swiss musician Daniela Weinmann releases the video for the recent single “Accept Nature“.

“Accept Nature” is a song about anxieties caused by unrealistic and, often, meaningless work goals. Weinmann details the track as well as the video:

The song «Accept Nature» tells the story of an insomniac that watches funny animal videos on her phone at night. She’s chronically stressed out because she feels that she has to compete with machines at work – so she wishes she would either become a machine, too, or survive like an animal in the wild, where her instincts / feelings would be an advantage instead of a disadvantage.

In the videoclip, the protagonist has transformed the trauma of her chronic stress into a cathartic object love. She falls for her exercise machine. To live her relationship or her kink she has to break into a gym at night.

Ironically, the wish to fit in into a merciless competitive work environment ultimately makes her drop out of the mainstream (sexuality). She explores a passion more interesting than productivity and conformity – and this exciting exploration helps her deal with the anxiousness she feels every night. I mean if you can’t sleep anyway – you might aswell break into a gym and seduce an exercise machine, right?

One night, she is discovered by a cleaner. This woman observes her quietly and doesn’t interfere for quite a while. Like the dancer, the cleaner breaks a few rules: She brings her dog to work and she spends the night in the gym, prying on the intimate moment between the woman and the exercise machine.

When she finally decides to step forward by switching on the light, she doesn’t call her out. Instead, she signals that she would like to join in.

I interpret this as a second step in the personal development of the two women: After turning to dogs and machines in search of love, comfort and warmth, they finally see each other. They finally discover solidarity and get curios about each other. Happy end: The stressed and singled out employee finds an unexpected ally after she dares to live out her wildest and weirdest feelings.

Odd Beholder’s sophomore album “Sunny Bay” will be released on Sept. 10th, 2021.

Sense Offence – Free Speech (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)
(Video)

“The New Zealand rapper “Sense Offence” strikes in the scene, with his clever “Free Speech”. As its title reveals; it’s a fierce reaction against the destructive system, against a world that wants us to be speechless, silent and unable to use our mind. Words of deep meaning by a real artist.”

-Nagamag.com

This a bar-heavy rap written over a classic boom bap beat about the suppression of free speech (especially for artists) and the political polarization that is driving division and hate between people.

https://www.senseoffence.com/

Sense Offence is a New Zealand hip-hop artist and genre fluid rapper.

His music covers topics such as mental health, drug addiction, relationship difficulties and suicide, tackling these heavy topics with a brutal realism about their realities balanced with a strong belief that recovery is possible and offering encouragement to anyone battling these demons to keep fighting.

He is an extremely versatile artist often incorporating elements from different genres and a highly technical rapper with a mastery of complex flow patterns, strong delivery, powerful story telling and intricate multi-syllabic rhyme schemes.

Madison Beer – Reckless
(Video)

“Bright and silvery voice from “Madison Beer” in Pop style, introduce us in a love story that ended unexpectedly… How many of us have been victims of big promises and words that weren’t kept? The artist shares her feelings with us via sound and a nice clip too.”

-Nagamag.com

https://madisonbeer.lnk.to/Reckless

Madison Beer releases the tragically whimsical video for her newest single “Reckless” today. The visual follows the release of the track earlier this month, which was Madison’s highest week debut ever on Spotify with over 4 million streams.

In the video, directed by Madison and Amber Park, Madison navigates the confusion of a lover’s betrayal inside a surreal story book world. The twisted fairytale is a melancholic but beautiful journey, with Madison emerging from the turmoil in the end as if awoken from a dream.

http://madisonbeer.com/

“I drew a lot of inspiration from classic children’s book themes for this video,” explains Madison. “I wanted the world for ‘Reckless’ to feel both disorienting and familiar, like a nightmare where nothing is what it seems and there’s no way out. Those are exactly the emotions I’ve gone through in relationships that have turned sour. When someone you’ve given all your trust to betrays you, you feel like everything you’ve ever known was a lie.”

https://twitter.com/madisonbeer

The release of the “Reckless” video follows the announcement of Madison’s highly anticipated Life Support Tour (encompassing US and Canadian dates in 2021 and UK and European dates in 2022). For a complete list of tour dates and ticket information, visit https://madisonbeer.com/live/

KNOW Beauty, a new skincare brand co-founded by Madison and Vanessa Hudgens with Chief Medical Officer Dr. Karen Kagha, also launched this month. The brand combines your lifestyle factors with your genetics to build a more intelligent routine that sets smarter standards for skincare. You can find out more information on KNOW and get started with your own Skin DNA Kit here.

Madison’s debut album, Life Support, her strongest personal and artistic statement to date, was released earlier this year to critical acclaim. The album has accumulated over 700 million streams to date after debuting at no. 1 on US iTunes, no. 1 on Spotify US’s Album Chart, no. 2 on Spotify Global’s Album Chart and in the Top 30 of the UK Official Album Chart. Life Support includes singles “Selfish,” Madison’s fastest ever gold-certified record, and “BOYSHIT,” which Billboard called “one of the best pop chorus openings of 2020.” She has attracted the endorsements of The Guardian, The Sunday Times, i-D, NME, Clash, V Magazine, Paper, and Rolling Stone (who hailed her a “rising popstar”). Globally, Madison has over 3 billion streams across her catalogue to date, and a social following of over 25 million on Instagram, 14 million on TikTok, and 3 million on Twitter.

Leeroy Stagger-Ventura
(Video)

“In -Ventura-, as if watching the illusory journey of the artist, enjoy with him the sunlight and mirages of invisible phantoms. Surprisingly, you fully live all 4 minutes of this track. Exact and multifaceted, bright and clean, romantic and warm moments…”

“В -Ventura- ты словно следишь за иллюзорным путешествием исполнителя, вместе с ним наслаждаешься солнечными бликами и миражами невидимых фантомов. Удивительно, но ты полностью проживаешь все 4 минуты трека. Волнующие и многогранные, светлые и чистые, романтичные и такие тёплые мгновения…”

-Nagamag.com

https://www.leeroystagger.com/

Leeroy Stagger finds inspiration through grief on his new single ‘Ventura’ out today on all digital streaming platforms.

“The song ‘Ventura’ is about my friend Neal Casal,” says Leeroy. “The first time I met Neal was on a magical night in New York City, he was working on Willie Nelson’s Songbird record as he was in Ryan Adams’ band The Cardinals at the time. He invited us out to the 17th St. bar where all the Cardinals were hanging out, he introduced me to the band and they all had laughed how they were happy that Ryan wasn’t there because they didn’t want me to have a bad impression of him.

“Neil was always enthusiastic. We ran into him a few years later in Nottingham, England, where Ryan was playing the big theatre. Neal came out for coffee with me and my wife Coby and always had such nice things to say about my music and my career. He even sang on my Everything Is Real record, which was such an honour for me. Before he tragically passed, we had been in touch about him possibly playing guitar on some new music I was working on.

“I wanted to pay tribute to my friend in song. When it came time to make a video, I thought it would be very cool to have something surf related, as Neal was such a big surfer. He loved the ocean. I found this great old surf footage from California in the 50s on YouTube and approached the fellow who owned it (Wes Timmons) who also happened to be a film editor. He lovingly edited the video into the dream state we see. It fits perfectly to the song and is a beautiful tribute to Neal.”

‘Ventura’ is the first single from Leeroy Stagger’s new album Dystopian Weekends, which is set for release on October 1st. Recorded at Afterlife Studios in Vancouver at the beginning of the global pandemic, Leeroy says that “Dystopian Weekends is the serum of truth with a slice of light and darkness that we all need right now.”

“A new star has dropped down from heavens and is called; “Love Lies”. Prepare for a fascinating trip in space with “March and June”. Hot Electronic waves with some old-style touch and the super voice of “Indra” are capable to blow up your mind.”

-Nagamag.com

Nothing is lost. Nothing is created. Everything is transformed. Love turns into bubbly electro pop-dance synths, tears of happiness morph into stardust and discoball reflections. Riding along the dusty guitar riffs we found Indra’s sensual tones.

Love Lies is March & June’s newest journey into the outer space, following the same musical path back into the glorious 80s’ decade. He doesn’t travel by himself: Indra, one for Romania’s up-and-coming musical talents joined the mysterious astronaut, bringing smooth, sensual colours to the mix.

BERWALD – Eso
(Video)

“”BERWALD” is here with a dancing bomb for our Summer nights. Successful combination of House and Latin elements, which lift the mood and transfer positive energy. It’s time to adjust your speakers’ volume and …start the dance!”

-Nagamag.com

Artist shared few words with Nagamag behind this song:

“During my past year at Abbey Road Institute in Amsterdam the song Eso was created. It is a House and Latin like dance track.

Due to the pandemic I longed for the freedom like we had before. The traveling, going to festivals with friends and enjoying the summer days is something we took for granted. From this nostalgia the song came about. I made it with another student/artist from Puerto Rico, he was the perfect match because he knows the Latin culture better than I do. He played the guitar and did the vocals on it. These two elements gave energy and soul to the song and later became the whole theme for this project.

When people listen to this single. I want them to feel free, energetic, positive and get summer feelings.

The song got played on Sublime FM the biggest soul, funk and jazz radio in the Netherlands. Where they do crossovers on Sundays with soul and electronic music.

This is also the single of the upcoming EP. The EP consists of 4 songs. These songs are about my love for soul music and the music I grew up with. It is a mixture of house, soul and big band music, the stuff I want to make more of in the future. ”

“Few artists have their own personal production and “Juno Roome” proves that he’s one of them. All you have to do is listen to his new Lo-fi Pop single, concentrate on the etherial voice and elusive melodies of this gem. Don’t forget to watch the clip too!”

Juno Roome is a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, producer, filmmaker, good driver, bad stockbroker. My first impression of him was that he is tall and has a low voice because that was his Tinder bio. He lives in a bunker in Sunset Park with a member of the Triads and a diarrhea monster. The last time I tried writing about Juno, he got really depressed. I hope he does not lose too much money in stocks. ~ Julie Chen (2021)

Jonathan Fitas – Inside
(Video)

“”Inside” offers the silent power of Downtempo, pure and untouched, directly in your place. Rich electronic textures fill the air with mesmerizing vibrations and can simply leave us speechless. Highly recommended piece for every listener.”

-Nagamag.com

Known for his multimedia works that make use of space and audiovisual immersion, Jonathan Fitas’ music is a subtle mix between classical music, electronic textures and sound design. Fitas has built the sonic signature for brands such as Hugo Boss, Asics and Volkswagen thanks to an extraordinary ability to create very cinematic melodies and ambiences. This ability was also employed to conceptualize an acoustic immersive experience for two 2019 multimedia exhibitions held at “Atelier des Lumières” art centre in Paris.

The unfolding of Jonathan Fitas’ first EP “Beyond The Loop”, released on naïve today (June 18th 2021), resembles the soundtrack of an epic film, at times tinged with nostalgia, and testifies to the autobiographical dimension of the composer’s work. By opening classical music to new sonorities, Fitas’ embodies the renewal of a stammering music scene.
