Adagio Trio – Remembrance
(Spotify)

“The singing of the flute, which is accompanied by accompaniment of the crystal sound of the harp and the bass melody of double bass. Feel the taste of Irish and Scottish music, let yourself a couple of minutes of the meditative and relaxing atmosphere. Pleasant dive. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“Пение флейты, которое сопровождается аккомпанементом кристального звука арфы и басовой мелодии контрабаса. Почувствуйте вкус ирландской и шотландской музыки, позвольте себе пару минут медитативной и расслабляющей атмосферы. Приятного погружения.”

Artists said about this song:

"Remembrance" is dedicated to the memory of Peter Carruthers, Kathy Daniels' brother who passed away in June of 2020. It is written in a simple folk-like style which suits the harp, flute, and cello quite well. Kathy Daniels, our flutist, composed the tune which is the first song we have written for the Adagio Trio.

Artist said about this song:

” I wrote this song going through my first breakup. I remember feeling constantly sad and empty and carrying a feeling of heaviness everywhere I went to. It was as if, now that I didn’t have my boyfriend in my life, my rose-tinted glasses had fallen off and suddenly everything around me was grey. I recorded this a couple weeks ago in the studio of a friend. I knew I wanted a minimalist, soft approach to the song so I decided to make it acoustic and add lots of texture with vocal harmonies.”

Paul Bond – Sunset Blues
(Spotify)

“Music that can cause the most real, genuine human emotions. Feel the global calmness in melodic rhythms of Folk Music, let the actor's voice becomes for you a wounded balsam. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“Музыка, которая способна вызвать самые настоящие, неподдельные человеческие эмоции. Почувствуйте глобальное успокоение в мелодичных ритмах фолк музыки, пусть голос исполнителя станет для вас ранозаживляющим бальзамом.”

-Nagamag.com

“It was near the snow-peaked mountains, only yesterday, when you told me that our lives would change”

Sunset Blues is the debut single of Paul Bonds forthcoming EP. Having previously released two full-length albums, an EP, a vinyl 7” and several singles with his band Dandelion, with all songs and lyrics written by Bond, the songwriter now ventures to pursue a solo career. Bonds songwriting is reminiscent of the melancholy and craftsmanship exhibited by artists like Iron & Wine and Judee Sill, and his intricate lyrics and smooth, calming voice remind listeners of folk heroes such as Paul Simon and James Taylor.

Bond has an MA degree in English Literary Studies and Philosophy, and as such his lyrics are inspired by literary forces such as Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ezra Pound. American modernism in particular and the expatriates that inhabited in Paris in the ‘20s are great sources of inspiration. In a similar tradition, Bond aspires to enlarge the personal anecdote into a universal emotion, to which any listener can relate. Sunset Blues, for instance, deals with the big changes in life, in Bonds case: becoming a father. The song deals with the fear of the unknown, the joy of new life and the ridiculous responsibility of bringing new life into the world.

Nanuk – Waterlily
(Spotify)

“The track in which there is a place for beautiful male vocals, such an elegant, sensual and peaceful. The ringtone of acoustic folka slowly overtakes on all sides, covers you with its blanket, burning fire and lights stars on the black, heavenly canvas. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“Трек, в котором есть место красивому мужскому вокалу, такому элегантному, чувственному и умиротворяющему. Мелодия акустического фолка медленно обступает со всех сторон, накрывает вас своим одеялом, разжигает огонь и зажигает звёзды на чёрном, небесном полотне.”

Old Pup – Screen Crawlers
(Spotify)

“-Automatic Translation with Google Translate-
This composition distinguishes the incredible consistency of guitar riffs, in the melodies of which the huge poetic talent of the vocalist is revealed. The ballad, which raises the spirit and gives strength and will be for everyone a great musical accompaniment on his way. Surprisingly light and casual creation.”

“Данную композицию отличает невероятная созвучность гитарных риффов, в мелодии которых раскрывается огромный поэтический талант вокалиста. Баллада, которая поднимает дух и придаёт сил и будет для каждого отличным музыкальным сопровождением на его пути. Удивительно лёгкое и непринужденное творение.”

-Nagamag.com

"Screen Crawlers" is the first song off of Old Pup's forthcoming record, Incognito Lounge, which releases April 22 via Hear Here Records. The song is a paradox. The lyrics are sparse and touch on the disillusioned reality that technology--especially social media--has had on humanity and its ability to be present and self-aware. The instrumentation is upbeat and positive, with a catchy harmonica run and mostly major chords. Towards the end, the two competing moods merge and form the eerie outro.

Quite Alright – The Winter of Our Discontent

“-Automatic Translation with Google Translate-
One of those songs in which the text completely absorbs your attention. There are a lot of lyrics and important, such simple but necessary to each human emotion. The track will be wrapped like a candy in the genre enclosure Folk music, which gives it a special significance.”

Как много было создано прекрасных произведений у его берегов и данная акустическая баллада не стала исключением. Столько положительных эмоций вы ещё не испытывали никогда.”

With influences from Xavier Rudd and Ziggy Alberts, Written In The Sea pairs raw acoustic roots with an earthy edginess, making it different from anything you’ve heard, yet fitting in perfectly with the indie folk music scene.

Eline Høyer – Worth to Keep
(Spotify)

“A new gem is out from "Eline Høyer" and sounds quite unique too. This single reveals the artist's mesmerizing voice and the lyrics are its main part. Calm, expressive and authentic work, balancing between Pop and Folk.”

-Nagamag.com

“Worth To Keep” stands out from the other tracks on this Ep with its minimalistic approach. In a sense it's almost bare like Eline Høyer`s raw and dynamic vocals also refers to, being up most vulnerable by sharing your fears and insecurities while coming to terms with the fact that you are worthy of anything. This track is the most vocal-driven one, almost to the point where it crosses borders from pop to soul music. Further on she's accompanied by drums and bass to give it even more depth and atmosphere for Eline Høyer ́s vocals to shine through with hints of the pop and indie genre throughout the song.
