Lose yourself in the resonance of composer-pianist Martin Graff’s Trips for Piano: eight evocative piano pieces made to move the soul and light the imagination. Graff’s affecting harmonies, soaring melodies, pensive compositional style, and impassioned playing conjure the most beautiful colors from keys of black and white. The final track, “Sonare,” is an increasingly virtuosic celebration of the full expressive range of the piano, a dramatic crescendo of enveloping sonority…

Iderdown Interview on Nagamag
.
Nagamag:
Which are the genres that describe your music style better?
Iderdown:
I like to think of it as leftfield music, influenced by a wide array of genres. They all get blended together when I start writing, so any track at any time will be a mixture of noise, prog, post-rock, ambient, drone, glitch, trance, industrial and breakbeat.
Nagamag:
Few words about your musical background and career?
Iderdown:
Well, I was in an industrial band in high school and at the same time playing around with screamtracker. This was followed by some indie rock years in bands and toying with 4-track bedroom lo-fi songwriting. I started releasing my instrumental electronic music as iderdown in 2003 and continue to work on diverse projects like the dark folk band Within and playing as part of the drone collective Cosmic Homeostasis.
Nagamag:
Do you remember your first connection of love to music that was the right impact to be a music artist now?
Iderdown:
I have been making melodies in my head for long as I can remember and grew up in a house full of music but the first time I heard the songs that made me want to create was during high school, where I was lucky to have a group of friends who explored strange worlds of music.
Nagamag:
Tell me about your latest release?
Iderdown:
iderdown's last release was a collaboration ep with Arcane Trickster called Snowbird. It's an ambient soundtrack for a tranquil shore.
Nagamag:
What's coming up in the future for iderdown?
Iderdown:
A five track Lp of Ambient music that I wrote mostly inspired by the music of Peter Namlook. There will also be a companion set of remixes by Tempest Recording and Slice Records artists.
Nagamag:

Boogie Hill Faders – Be Happy (Spotify)
“Comprehensive work with sound that interacts with the listener. The vocals in -Be Happy- along with its construction and transitions, form a combination of Electro Pop and Nu-Disco. It draws a bright and very positive picture to which you want to return again and again.”
“Комплексная работа со звуком в целом, которая производит взаимодействие инструментов друг с другом. Вокал в -Be Happy-, построение композиции, переходов, сочетание Electro Pop и Nu-disco и многих других элементов, рисует яркую и очень позитивную картину, к которой хочется возвращаться вновь и вновь. ”

Following the success of “In A Minute” with Disco Fries & Big Nab, and “The Spot”, the new Boogie Hill Faders single “Be Happy” is the 3rd release from the upcoming debut studio album “The Formula” from Liftoff Recordings.
A crossover feel good dance track with that trademark Boogie Hill Faders bounce & groove. Deep basslines, flipped sample magic, and polished studio production.
Absolutely dripping with positive Summer vibes; put your shades on, crank up “Be Happy” and head to the beach.

OVRGRWN – The Riders – Instrumental (Spotify)
“Retro never sounded so good. Synth me up baby this is the way. Instrumentals as this really make the 80’s vibe pop. ”

Blending the synthscapes of ‘80s film scores with contemporary indie pop, San Francisco-based duo OVRGRWN has developed a remarkable creative formula that is richly atmospheric, sweetly melodic, and frequently willing to tap into its dark side. Balancing a seriousness in the music with genuine enthusiasm, the group’s songs captivate listeners with immersive production techniques and a serene singing style.
OVRGRWN consists of Brandon and Danae, two California natives who met in 2012 when Brandon answered a “drummer wanted” ad on Craigslist to be part of a garage/surf rock project Danae was organizing. The two formed a creative synergy over six years of playing together in the band before branching out into new musical territory with OVRGRWN.
The group’s debut EP, O Well, landed in 2019 and immediately resonated with fans of synthwave and indie pop music. The early success of the album put them on the radar of retro synth label FiXT Neon, which signed the group to a deal in 2020. O Well was re-packaged and re-released through the label later that same year, and OVRGRWN has new material scheduled with FiXT Neon for early 2021.
Gorge, Markus Homm – Holos – Edit (Spotify)
“An organic deep house vibe. Well designed and executed. Clean layering with superb breakdowns. Instant “on rotation at the club” ”
-Nagamag.com
Poker Flat Recordings keeps up its prodigious release schedule with another superb EP - this time by scene statesmen Gorge and Markus Homm. Gorge (aka Pit Waldmann) is the co-owner of 8bit Records, originally from Mannheim and has carved a singular niche for himself over the past 20-odd years. Similarly. Markus Homm has been deeply influential in developing the scene in his native Romania, and is now working alongside the Poker Flat regular Mihai Popoviciu.
With this EP Gorge and Markus Homm have mer- ged their many talents and honed two tracks of depth and weight. 'Holos' is a tightly wound slice of superior tech house, textured and layered with lush chords and a thick lower end.
'Glint' also showcases the duo's mutual understan- ding of the dynamics of the dancefloor - a slick groove is enhanced and expanded via subtle and effective melodic elements, including a pinch of acidic 303 sounds.

Modern Andy Interview on Nagamag
.
Nagamag:
Which are the genres that describe your music style better?
Modern Andy:
A genre that describes my music more in depth than DownTempo or Chill is something I call FolkTronic. To me FolkTronic is the combination of not just a folk or bluegrass sound interwoven with electronic elements but it is using acoustic instruments in general that are then incorporated into an electronic set. Recording live acoustic instruments for sample/loop playback later is a big part of what Modern Andy is and what I consider FolkTronic.
Nagamag:
Few words about your musical background and career?
Modern Andy:
I grew up in a musical household so I was exposed to music everyday from a very young age and I couldn't be more grateful for it. My dad played guitar and banjo, primarily bluegrass/folk music so as a child I was exposed to harmonies, fingerpicking and interesting chord structures. This helped shape how I would start Modern Andy to be a conceptual music/art project that would combine visuals and music to create a living art piece. As I experimented and explored this I I realized what I wanted to do was be a Modern Andy Warhol and thus Modern Andy was created.
Nagamag:
Do you remember your first connection of love to music that was the right impact to be a music artist now?
Modern Andy:
I fell in love with music at a very young age. There was always music being played in my house and there were instruments everywhere. From pianos, guitars, mandolins, banjos and more I could walk around our house and just experiment with music and different instruments. As I grew up I continued to experiment and became interested in audio recording and recording techniques. This really propelled me to become the musician I am today and how Modern Andy got its sound.
Nagamag:
What are some of your motivations when creating the music that you do?
Modern Andy:
Some motivations I have when creating my music is finding those places in a song I can get lost in, finding the places where you stop paying attention, where time ceases to exist and you get lost in the moment and lost in your thoughts. My motivation is to give as much power as possible to an instrumental song so the listener has no choice but feel what THEY feel, not feel what they are told to feel.
Nagamag:
What do you hope the listener takes away from a Modern Andy song?
Modern Andy:
My hope is the listener will take away a sense of individuality and uniqueness from my songs. I hope they feel that they haven’t ever really heard anything like this before and that they will get lost in the songs and be lost in their thoughts while they listen. I hope they create their own story and that Modern Andy is the soundtrack to that story they are telling.
Nagamag:
Many artists listen to genres that they are not producing music for. Which track is your favorite that is NOT similar to yours?
Modern Andy:
Glen Hansard "Say it to me Now"
Nagamag:
Of Course Nagamag would love to listen also which is the track from a similar artist you admire?
Modern Andy:
Nine Inch Nails "La Mer"
