Bad Habits – Love Me/Hate Me – Acoustic (Spotify)

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

“The vocals in -Love Me / Hate Me - are a veritable lyrical volcano that erupts up to crimson skies. Singing somewhere in the upper atmosphere, squeezes the chest in the most vulnerable place. And your heart skips a beat. Bravo! -Bad Habits- hit the sweet spot.”

“Вокал в -Love Me/Hate Me- настоящий лирический вулкан, который извергается до багровых небес. Поющий где-то в верхних слоях атмосферы, он сдавливает грудь в самом уязвимом месте. И ваше сердце замирает. Браво! -Bad Habits- попали в точку.”

“Love Me/Hate Me” is a song about trying to love someone while suffering from BPD (borderline personality disorder). A daily ongoing struggle, trying to convince yourself that all the lies your mind creates aren't real...

Bad Habits is a collective of Jo (vocals), Ellie (vocals/bass), Severin (lead guitar), Spiros (guitar), and Apostol (drums) based in Athens, Greece. The band’s eclectic style pulls diverse elements of classic and punk rock for a unique, modern sound with a kick of 70s nostalgia.

The culmination of a decade-and-a-half’s worth of collaboration and experimentation, including ventures into acoustic pop, hardcore punk, and beyond, Bad Habits was established in the fall of 2018. Though initially intended to be a cover band, it wasn’t long before the project took on a life of its own. Drawing on diverse rock influences, the group took to the studio to show off their full potential (and distinctive style).

Now fresh off the heels of their debut single, “California,” Bad Habits are gaining serious traction in the alternative music scene. Rooted in uncompromising authenticity, they serve as a beacon for relatable self-expression and the obliteration of senseless stereotyping with their sharp Rock & Roll edge.

With 15 more songs slated for release, the band is looking forward to a continued upward trajectory through 2021.

“In the world, there are many musical works of varying quality. The single -Smile- carefully preserved the great sound of musical parts, melodic solos, and magnificent vocals by -Nelson Elle-.”

“В мире существует множество музыкальных творений самого разного качества. В сингле -Smile- бережно сохранено отличное звучание всех музыкальных партий, мелодичные соло и умопомрачительный вокал -Nelson Elle-.”

-Nagamag.com

Writing to understand yourself better. Singing to give your own context a voice. Developing as a person in and from your own music. For Nelson Elle, this takes the form of powerful, emotional and melodic pop. Firmly grounded in jazz, blues and soul, she is – in her mother’s words – “a bright soul who’s not afraid of the dark, a multifaceted artist who spreads joy with masked sorrow.”

Smile is haunting radio pop, in the best possible way. One of those songs that make you happy while still bringing tears to your eyes. You want to dance and break free, but you’re also on the verge of a breakdown. One of those songs that you want to continue forever.

“Whether looking for something to express inner thoughts or just please your ears "She's Not The One" may be the right choice! The single that came to stay in your music list for a long time. Rock influenced style and dominating guitar chords that we loved from the first seconds.”

-Nagamag.com

“She’s Not The One” is our fourth single and it’s a co-write with former band member, Ricky Duran. Ricky moved to Austin, TX to chase the blues, and shortly after became the runner-up winner on Season 17 of NBC’s The Voice. The three verses are lead by each writer/singer as personalized accounts of frivolous relationships and the emotional aftermath. As expected, this collaboration comes with a catchy group chorus, rich vocal harmonies, and a soaring guitar solo to finish.

Glennellen Anderson – Fanfiction (Spotify)

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

“The history of -Glennellen Anderson- proves that miracles do happen and her track -Fanfiction- indicates that the author stands in the intersection of two genres. Those smooth transitions from one mood to another, is one of the most surprising aspects.”

“История -Glennellen Anderson- подтверждение того, что чудеса случаются и её трек -Fanfiction- указывает на то, как автор существует на стыке жанров и подачи материала и с лёгкостью переходит из одного настроения в другое, — одно из самых удивительных её свойств.”

-Nagamag.com

Fanfiction is a melancholy story about the phone call that was never had from a breakup that still haunts you. It starts with initially understanding why you know the relationship is over but soon spirals over all the reasons you don't understand how someone you loved could hurt you like this. The spoken word bridge is chilling and the layers of the last chorus act as all the voices in your head telling you to stay and move on as you finally breakdown and accept that there is no saving this.

Glennellen Anderson has made only two promises to herself for this life. One, she would never dye or change her natural red locks and two, she would absolutely make a name for herself in this industry. At no surprise to anyone, she has definitely kept her word.

The redhead wow'd on hit show AMERICAN IDOL, impressing the judges at only 15 years old, and was asked to return a few years later after she'd gained more experience.

At 19, Glennellen returned to the show - this time, soaring through to Hollywood week with a golden ticket in hand. After competing G went on to record and co-produce her debut album, Perspective, and landed a distribution deal with Hitman Records. It sold out its first year, having been made available with Target, Best Buy, Barnes & Noble, Amazon, and more.

Anderson decided her next move was to take on the world. G collaborated with French/German duo Cosmow on pop single, "AFTERGLOW," and reached #4 on the Top 20 in Greece, #14 on the Greece Dance Charts and the track is now spinning on some of the biggest iHeart Radio platforms, including Jay-Z's TIDAL.

With a multitude of headlining shows at hollywoods hottest venues such as the Whiskey A Go Go and The Hotel Cafe under her belt, all eyes are on G to see what she'll acomplish next!

“Very concise and elegant composition, whose style of work with the lyrics reveals an expressive mood, good atmosphere and all that accompanies them. -Different Planet- is a simple but interesting and inventive song. A sample of creative freedom.”

-Nagamag.com

Artist shared few words about this song with Nagamag:

"Everything is different still the same. This song is based on my personal story of facing the unknown, navigating challenges and taking new steps despite of it. Catchy electro-beat vocal melodies dance on a programming with pumping electro house-influences, produced by a team of experienced Swiss producers. The music video features 360 footage filmed from a tower and various locations. Singing in an astronaut costume, the visual turning planet effects add to the fresh sound and amped mood."

https://www.facebook.com/iamlydiamel/

Lydia's song-story began a long time ago. Falling in love with the piano at an early age has allowed her to integrate her real life experiences into lyrics and melodies in her songs. Growing up in a small village in Switzerland, she spent several years living abroad in Australia and Sweden; experiences which have left a clear mark on her musical journey. When Lydia's journey took an unexpected and abrupt turn through a serious chronic illness, she decided to keep writing music against all odds. Now, she is taking the next step to release her own songs that have a fresh sound of modern electro-pop. The story continues!

The Remaining Part – Misery – Piano Diaries Session (Spotify)

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

“Taken out from "The Remaining Part" debut album, this piece unites the classical acoustic beauty with inspirational singing. Starting like a fairytale it uncovers a hidden epic power, which travels way back in some mythical era, full of adventure!”

"Misery" is a dreamy, melancholic song about a girls standing on the railway tracks waiting for the train. It’s an attempt to unite something tragic and something beautiful.

Despite the Corona pandemic and the bad situation for the music industry, the Danish/German songwriting trio stayed creative and screwed in their Berlin studio on the perfect piano and vocal sound. With "Piano Diaries" the three songwriters have written a musical diary in pandemic times, in which intimacy and emotion hit the right note.

https://www.instagram.com/the_remaining_part/

About The Remaining Part

"Piano Diaries" is the name of the new album by the band THE REMAINING PART. It will be released on March 29, 2021 as a follow-up LP to the orchestral debut album "Northern Tales" on Edition B+.

Despite the Corona pandemic and the bad situation for the music industry, the Danish/German songwriting trio stayed creative and retreated to their small Berlin studio to rearrange the songs of their debut album. The result is the counterpart to "Northern Tales": instead of opulent instrumentation, they prefer to play one note less and hold one chord longer in their piano versions. You can hear simple, cleverly composed piano arrangements and the solo voices of Sharyhan Osman and Line Bøgh, which sensitively merge with the choir voice of Maxi Menot. Thus, it is mainly quiet melodies, the balanced and nuanced sound of the piano and the spherical choir passages that make the album a melancholic dreamy one.

“Follow your music instict and you’ll find “Loi”. The Commercial sound that nobody should miss is already out. We just couldn’t resist in this exuberant voice and the strongly emotional lyrics. All revealing a high level of production.”

-Nagamag.com

There are certain voices, that really make you listen and, if you aren’t already comfortably seated, simply knock you off of your feet. That is what you can expect when you let Loi into your ears for the first time. Be warned: you will want more.

Loi, also known as Leonie Greiner, has been impressing musical greats such as Sasha, Mark Forster, Ed Sheeran and Nena at the tender age of 14. Her powerful voice, dark tone and incredible range carried her into the final of „The Voice Kids“ 2017 and now at 18 is starting her own grand adventure in music.

Her debut single „I follow“, which will be available from April 2nd, 2021 has already convinced the makers of the successful Film-Saga „Ostwind“ to secure it as the title song for their newest movie adventure.

The dynamic ballad „I follow“ beautifully showcases Loi ́s impressive voice and incomparable emotional range, modulation easily included. The sparse instrumentation places Loi ́s voice in the foreground and she easily transforms the piece into a true pop hymn.

When asked about her intentions for the song Loi explains: „For me I follow is about music. I just follow the music. For others it can be a love song, intended for a loved one.“ With „I follow“ Loi has shown her love for music in the most impressive fashion. And this is just the beginning.

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

“I found myself immediately drawn to Wit’s charming, seductive, yet somehow innocent vocal. A song full of soul & heartache.
