-Nagamag.com

R3HAB teams up with UK sensations Sigala and JP Cooper for their collaboration “Runaway,” a stunning coming-of-age saga that fuses the best of dance and pop. The song reflects each artist’s signature sound, from R3HAB’s dynamic and high-energy style and Sigala’s radio-friendly beats to JP Cooper’s soulful vocals. Opening with undulating, upbeat melodies, “Runaway” rides on a combination of muted basslines and heartfelt vocals; its powerful lyrics about taking a risk to realize a dream or happiness is something many listeners will be able to relate to. The track is the first confirmed as part of R3HAB’s new studio album, which will be released this fall, and offers a sneak peek into what fans can expect from his newest body of work. “Runaway” was years in the making between these three talented artists, so read on below for more about the story behind the track:

R3HAB:

“Sigala and JP are pioneers in the UK’s dance-pop scene, and I’ve been following their work for years. Being able to create a song together that reflects each of our signature sounds makes me extremely proud. We were in the same headspace when working on this song. There’s always something in your life that requires boldness to unlock its full potential. ‘Runaway’ is about daring to try; I hope our fans are inspired to find that boldness within themselves.”

Sigala:

“I am so happy we are releasing ‘Runaway’ for the world to hear. One of my favourite parts of what I do is collaborating with other writers and producers – and I was blown away by the talents of both R3HAB and JP Cooper. We had so much fun making the record, and I hope everyone enjoys it!”

JP Cooper:

“‘Runaway’ has been in the making for a good couple of years now, and I’m so happy it’s finally off the hard drive and into the world. It’s been amazing watching R3HAB and Sigala develop the track to where it’s at now. ‘Runaway’ is a youthful, wide-eyed, coming-of-age story… it definitely brought back a few memories. I’m sure you’ll be able to relate.”

Dutch-Moroccan Multi-Platinum DJ and producer Fadil El Ghoul, better known as R3HAB, has been trailblazing his way through dance music for the better part of the last decade. From his breakthrough remixes for Rihanna, Drake, Taylor Swift, Calvin Harris, The Chainsmokers, Lady Gaga, to anthems such as Gold- and Platinum-certified “All Around The World (La La La)” and “Lullaby,” to his collaborations with the likes of Luis Fonsi, Sean Paul, ZAYN, Andy Grammer, Sofia Carson, Smokepurpp, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Astrid S, Olivia Holt and more, R3HAB has proven to be one of the most talented and forward-thinking artists in the game, whose work collected over 5B streams to date. In 2016 R3HAB founded his label CYB3RPVNK, which has passed 2B streams across all platforms since its inception. R3HAB himself continues to evolve and diversify his sound by working with a variety of artists around the globe, pushing the boundaries of dance music as he collaborates across genres and languages. In 2020 alone R3HAB celebrated over 900M Spotify streams. He is currently the most discovered artist on Spotify, one of Spotify’s top 150 most streamed artists across all genres worldwide, and ranked #13 on prestigious DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJs chart. With his combination of innate artistry and innovative attitude, in 2021 R3HAB is continuing his journey among electronic music’s elite.

Sigala is the musical nom de plume of Bruce Fielder, a London-based house DJ, producer, and remixer. Launching his career with “Easy Love,” a sampling track that topped the charts in the UK in 2015, he continued releasing bright, sunny dance-pop tunes featuring a variety of guest vocalists and producers. His 2018 full-length album “Brighter Days” included collaborations with Kylie Minogue, Craig David, Sean Paul, and Nile Rodgers, among many others. Subsequent tracks featuring Becky Hill (“Wish You Well”) and James Arthur (“Lasting Lover”) continued his run of UK Top Ten hits. In 2019 Sigala released the single “We Got Love” featuring Ella Henderson. Another song with Becky Hill – “Heaven on My Mind,” appeared in 2020, and “Lasting Lover” with James Arthur became Sigala’s 8th single to chart in the UK Top Ten. His latest single “You For Me” with Rita Ora, proved to be yet another Summer smash of 2021.

JP Cooper has done the legwork. Ten years in bands in and around his Manchester hometown. Multiple songs written on his own and with a variety of collaborators, a couple of which became global hits-that-will-not-die: “Perfect Strangers” with Jonas Blue and his own “September Song,” which is now sitting at some 600M streams. An international solo career built on pure songcraft. And he’s done the business. The singer/songwriter’s 2017 debut album “Raised Under Grey Skies” has sold in old-fashioned numbers: 1M copies at time of writing. His 11M monthly Spotify listeners have contributed to a grand total of 4B total streams. And, over the past 18 months, Cooper has done the hardest thing: built on all that to create a second album, a collection of 13 songs that work as together and work apart, that out-paces, out-sings and, by his exacting standards, out-classes his debut.

Ian Abel – All I Want Is You (Spotify)

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

“-Ian Abel- is a real master and professional in arrangement, which in his new single -all I Want IS You- artificially turns a simple melody and the groove of Electro Pop into one unimaginable one-piece sound.”

“-Ian Abel- настоящий мастер и профессионал в сведение и аранжировке, который в своём новом сингле -All I Want Is You- искусно превращает простую мелодию и ритм Electro Pop в одно невообразимо цельное звучание.”

-Nagamag.com

Ian Abel released his newest single, “All I Want Is You,” a devilish and disorienting love song just in time for the world’s #shotgirlsummer hangover.

“All I Want Is You” is a chaotic, unexpected mashup of genres and references: Abel’s sultry, soulful vocals are layered over a funk bassline, 80s synthesizers, distorted rock guitars, and background vocals inspired by Steely Dan and David Bowie... all folded into a twistingly dark synth-pop confection.

“I wanted to write something you could listen to over and over and keep discovering new sounds, layers, and meanings,” says Abel. “More than that, though, I wanted to capture the feeling of out-of-control, delusional obsession. I really relate to that feeling [chuckle].”

Underlying the track is its demented queer narrative, which is expanded upon in Abel’s irreverent DIY lyric video, where he messages the lyrics to anonymous, faceless men on the gay dating app Grindr.

“All those headless torsos on the apps are such teases,” remarked Ian. “Why not have a little fun and tease them back?”

Ian Abel (pronounced “able”) is, at the bottom of it all, a queer comic book nerd with a heart of gold. With an oh-so-smooth velvety voice and sensual, psychedelic electro-pop arrangements, he’s like if Sam Smith met Robyn or Jessie Ware met James Blake, all with a side of Peter Gabriel. He’s not just your standard indie voice.

For well over a decade, Ian has been an artist and performer. He has performed around the world and with greats like Nile Rodgers, Jimmy Fallon, and the SNL band. He has sung onstage at Carnegie Hall, on Chinese national television, and in festivals in Sun Valley, New York, and Edinburgh. Currently, Ian resides in New York City, where he hopes to get back to performing live soon.

He released his debut EP “Icarus” in 2016, and his songs and videos have been featured on Howl & Echoes, Wolf In a Suit, Clout, Indietronica, Milk Crater, Mystic Sons, and Spotify’s Fresh Finds

Golding, Cailin Russo – Boxing Underwater (feat. Cailin Russo) – song by Golding, Cailin Russo | Spotify (Spotify)

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

“The present indicator of musicians talent, whose genius is to create music that will not fit into the framework of a single style. Here, in -Boxing Underwater- we can find genres such as Electro Pop and Indie Electronic, but -Golding- and -Cailin Russo-, turned out to create their own special atmosphere.”

“Настоящий показатель таланта музыкантов, их гениальности - это создать музыку, которая не будет вписываться в рамки ни одного стиля. Да, безусловно, в -Boxing Underwater- присутствую такие жанры, как Electro Pop и Indie Electronic, но у -Golding- и -Cailin Russo- получилось создать свою, особую атмосферу. ”

-Nagamag.com

“Boxing Underwater” sees the pair – comprising Jay Bainbridge and Matt Bartlem – working with US artist Cailin Russo to create the uplifting, melodic single which sees razor-sharp production, slick musicianship, and clever lyrical turns coming together to create an impressive pop tune. Co-written with Jarryd James, Golding explains that its arrival is something of a special moment for the pair, having admired James’ work for many years.

“Jarryd has always been a huge inspiration and someone I’ve looked up to as an artist,” Bainbridge explains. “He’s always encouraged me to explore my musical freedoms and demonstrated the idea of ‘you can do anything’, there’s no rules in songwriting. To finally be creating in a room with him was a special moment for me.”

Likewise, Bainbridge looks at their collaboration with Cailin Russo as the missing piece that the track needed, with her almost ethereal voice managing to seamlessly lay atop a hypnotic instrumental bed, taking it from an impressive tune to a world-beating classic.

“We didn’t realise that the song could grow even more until Cailin came on to feature,” Bainbridge explains. “I’ve been a fan of Cailin’s music for years and have always had her in the back of my mind as someone I’d like to work with. Her vocals really helped set the tone and the mood of the song, all the pieces fell into place.”

With the meaning of the track itself is kept somewhat vague on purpose, the accompanying video clip adds something in the way of context. With Nicholas Stevens on filming and directorial duties, the video is a beautifully engaging piece of work that complements the track perfectly.

“It was really important to us to show varying sides of relationships, not just the good but the bad too,” Bartlem notes. “We wanted to capture the emotion of a real relationship so we were lucky enough to have real-life couple Mikalah and Zohar star in the clip, you can truly feel the love and chemistry between them as you watch the video unfold.”

Artist shared few words with Nagamag behind this song inspiration:

"So my BIGGEST love in life other than music is the woods. I grew up spending most of my time in the woods around my house and I spend a lot of my time now hiking, exploring trails and wild harvesting medicinal plants for my own benefit and for others. I love to make tinctures and oils and to be surrounded by nature, especially the woods. I have always felt that the woods are a place of safety and deep spiritual connection for me and this song is dedicated to them. It is my love song to the woods."

PRE-SAVE THE ‘Roses’ EP NOW. OUT 8/27.
https://orcd.co/messerrosesep

GRAMMY Award-winning vocalist Mitch Grassi today reveals “Angels Pray,” the latest piece of original music from his new solo project, Messer.

Messer is about freedom in identity, independence, confidence, queerness, the theatrical, and living your fantasy and romanticizing your life. Basking in beautiful solitude, embracing the darkness we carry within ourselves, as well as celebrating the moments of bliss, humanization, empathy, self-awareness, and global awareness.

“‘Angels Pray’ came from a place of longing, specifically longing for an escape. it’s that inexplicable desire to run out the nearest exit and leave everything behind in search of your higher personal truth. it’s the need for a bird’s eye view. When we find ourselves in the midst of chaos, it is often very difficult to view our circumstances from a larger perspective. The narrator of this song is searching for solace, perhaps in a new place, or perhaps in another person,” Grassi says.

Be on the lookout for additional Messer original music releases over the coming months.

Boulevard Tells, Jimmy Burney – Good Time (Spotify)

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

“When we have some free time, we just want to spend it with good company. "Good Time" is the sound we usually look for an energy recharge. The ideal vibe to help us feel happier and escape from everyday madness is here and ready to blast out from your speakers.”

-Nagamag.com

Enigmatic Italian production duo Boulevard Tells have shared their electric new single, “Good Time”. Bursting on the scene just six weeks ago with their debut single, “Lose Myself”, which has quickly rocketed to over 100,000 streams (and counting), the independent act look set to have an even bigger hit on their hands with this latest release.

Formed by Matteo Berardi and Davide Berardi, the duo showcase the full range of their talents on “Good Time”, with the track spotlighting their sophisticated production skills, as well as their noticeable songwriting abilities – their knack for insanely addictive toplines can be heard on the track’s anthemic chorus. Setting the tone for the song with its title, “Good Time” is a euphoric feel-good track about making the best out of life and is bolstered further by the soulful vocals of Grammy-nominated featured artist Jimmy Burney. With the track firing on all cylinders – lyrics, production and vocals – it makes for a truly fascinating listen.

Speaking on the release, the duo say, “We focussed on the happy experiences of our lives to create something powerful and uplifting. It was written with the notion of having a good time and embracing happiness in the face of adversity since we only live once. It’s the kind of song that forces you to sing along and feel upbeat despite what may be going on in your life. With all that’s happened globally over the past year, we could all do with some positive, feel-good vibes.”

With such an impressive single for just their second release, the duo are on track to continue their rapid rise with “Good Time”. And with more new music lined up for later this year, they are without doubt an act to watch out for as all signs point to a huge future ahead based on what’s been heard so far. “Good Time” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: http://smarturl.it/bt_goodtime

WE ARE AVA – Sorta Kinda Really Into You (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, Features, Pop, Pop Features, The Latest|Tags: , , , , |

“The branded expression and dynamics of -Sorta Kinda Really Into You- make it a composite hit. Pronounced piano and sensual vocals make a common mix juicy and conceptual, which offers its insane atmosphere and instantly raise our mood.”

“Фирменная экспрессия и динамика -Sorta Kinda Really Into You- делают композицию явным хитом. Ярко выраженное пиано и чувственный вокал делают общий микс сочным и концептуальным, что придаёт свою безумную атмосферу и мгновенно поднимет настроение”

-Nagamag.com

«It’s not like we need to talk about our future, but I’m sorta kinda really into you.»

After WE ARE AVA gave a sweet taste of their upcoming debut album Inner Gardening (autumn 2021) with the energetic, catchy track Conquer Me and the gloomy party anthem More Than You Like Me, the trio’s third single release follows now: Sorta Kinda Really Into You.

In the latest song, the Eastern Swiss electro-pop band strikes softer and warmer notes than before. The focus lies on a fresh relationship with all its beauties and pitfalls, reflected in the tightrope act of moving from trivial feelings to real ones. The fear of giving too much of yourself too quickly or getting too involved and consequently breaking something, coupled with the wonderful feeling of something new and exciting: «Really don’t wanna put a label on it and I don’twanna scare you off. But don’t you agree that this is going somewhere with us.»

The band wraps up the all-too-familiar ambivalence of butterflies in the belly in a feel-good ballad with a clear bottom line: «I’m really, really, really into you.»

haley greene – Golden (Spotify)

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

“-Golden- is the synthesis of simple, but very deep Electro Pop rhythms. A combination with spiritual vocals filled with meaning words, which are triggered as a lightning strike. Bright and dynamic work that also beats exactly in target!”

“-Golden- это синтез простых, но очень глубоких ритмов Electro Pop, а в сочетание с душевным вокалом и наполненными смыслом текстами срабатывает как удар молнии - ярко, динамично и бьёт точно в цель!”

-Nagamag.com

Artist shared with Nagamag few words behind this inspiration:

"”It’s almost like those times before were the golden days.”

Those words came from someone who gradually became a passing acquaintance in my life. He was alluding that our early days of friendship were better than the months after when we had succumbed to the heart as brief lovers. So I asked myself: had this period of my life really been fractured into two eras? Was either time period ever golden? Or could all of it have been?

While this song may have been inspired by the musings of a past connection, I realized that there have been many times I’ve separated my life into their own golden eras. Instead of viewing life as one conscious stream of events that are constantly building upon each other, we pinpoint these life changing moments and chase those perceived golden days with white-knuckled resistance. That’s when I decided to dust off my guitar after a 5 year hiatus from music and wrote Golden."
