JB Stark – Your Sweet Power
(Spotify)

“Extremely atmospheric and cool song that certainly deserves attention. It carries an amount of energy, melodicity and positiveness which can leave you breathless! Chic Retro Soul & Funk track, which can instantly raise your mood.”

“Чрезвычайно атмосферно и круто и безусловно заслуживает внимания! Такой сгусток энергии, мелодичности, позитива и харизмы в вокале, что перехватывает дух! Шикарный retro soul & funk! Трек, который в мгновение способен поднять ваше настроение!”

-Nagamag.com

Back by popular demand, JB Stark is releasing 2 more collaborations with soul singer Kestra. Their last 3 singles together have become fan favourites with over 4 million streams combined.

The second of the two singles is Your Sweet Power, a soulful and upbeat tune with a strong funk bassline. The song’s story reflects on a lost loved one, who still looks over your shoulder. Everyone can remember their greatest teacher or mentor, and years later you can still hear them chastise you and tell you off in your head. But it’s always done with love, and it’s always welcome as a guiding light.

London songwriter and producer JB Stark makes vibrant pop tunes which are more than the sum of their parts. Since his debut in February 2020, his songs have racked up over 5 million streams, been playlisted by Spotify (Indie Pop, Trending Hits) and Apple Music (Future Hits, Friday Feeling), entered the Spotify Viral 50 charts and received support from BBC Introducing, EARMILK, Alfitude, and many others.

JB Stark also produces and writes for other artists. In 2021 he co-wrote and produced the track ‘Tattoo’ for K-pop idol AILEE. Previous tracks have featured on BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 2, BBC Radio 6, XFM, MTV and SB.TV. He has also landed sync placements on major TV networks including Fox, CBS, E!, BBC Three, Channel 5 and BRAVO.

Residing in the creative hub of East London, and drawing inspiration from artists such as Mark Ronson, Paul Epworth and Max Martin, JB Stark's array of influences allow the producer/writer to curate a rich tapestry of unique sounds and textures.

Sidewalk Swingers – Steppin’ Walk
(Spotify)

“What kind of emotions can result from music when you listen to the improvisation of live, wind instruments? Your soul feels rejoicing, all negative emotions are retreating and everything flourishes. All these and many more are hidden in this magnificent jazz composition.”

“Какие эмоции может вызывать музыка, когда вы слышите шикарную импровизацию живых, духовых инструментов? Душа радуется, все негативные эмоции отступают, а внутри всё расцветает. Всё это и многое другое есть в этой великолепной джазовой композиции!”

-Nagamag.com

The song is influenced by New Orleans brass music with an essence of 80’s funk, having brass harmony of Trombone and Trumpet with groovy baseline, and percussive keys.

David Gale – False Hope
(Spotify)

“A funky start to this clever tune. Its hip with its poetic chemistry. The chorus brings it all in and clears the path for the smooth guitar rifts scattered throughout. It has its own rhythm and takes off like a rocket, yet to be cleared by the funky riffs again. We dig. ”

-Nagamag.com

https://www.instagram.com/david_gale.69/

David began his musical journey in local rhythm and blues bands around Syracuse, New York before joining the extravagant rock- experience, “The Joe Savage Show." The Savage show was a wild experience involving chain saws, pyrotechnics, leopards and pythons. The band always had talented musicians including the late Allen Woody (Allman Bros Band), Steve Davidowski (Dixie Dregs), and violinist, Chris Carmichael. They shared the stage with the likes of BB King, The Tubes, and Asleep at the Wheel. Although David's music is driven by guitar, it's not necessarily guitar music. He is always serving the song, rather than ripping off solos; however, don't expect the same disciplinary approach to live shows. David’s guitar playing is varied and distinct, sometimes described as angular and unusual but always melodic. David is influenced by all genres. However, his songwriting most resembles classic pop-rock artists such as David Bowie, REM, David Bryne, The Byrds, Beatles, Stones, Elvis Costello, Joe Jackson, and Brad Roberts. There are often jangly 12-strings, bluezy phrases, jazzy chords, soulful vocals, and rocking passages, a non-commitment to genre with nonstandard story topics.

SōMuch – Studio 54
(Spotify)

“Who let that funk in? We did and with open arms. Uplifting groove from a way back era that will never cease to be relevant. If this does not uplift your mood you are slim on options. The quality production is on point, never skipping a beat. ”

-Nagamag.com

Studio 54 pays homage to the days of disco and dancing with a free spirit, under the silver light of a glitter ball.

SōMuch is an Italian retro nūvō band of 5 members, based in Bolzano, northern Italy.
SōMuch was born in 2020 just before the pandemic, with the support of Ralph Rolle, drummer for Nile Rodgers and Chic.
After many years of playing together as a cover band (disco music took over in the band’s repertoire and the influence of the 70s and the 80s became the true guide and direction of the band's sound), the need arose to write their own songs that could have a retro flavor but with a new sound.

How did they meet Ralph Rolle?

November 2017 Roby (vocals) – scrolling through her Instagram feed – came across an advertisement: Ralph Rolle, the drummer for Nile Rodgers and Chic, was giving one-to-one classes in England. Roby decided to get a special Christmas gift for Francesco (drummer).
On the 7th of December 2017, Roby and Francesco flew to Manchester, England. They met Ralph and became friends.
October 19, 2019, magic happens. Roby and be Francesco asked Ralph to listen to a demo of a song written by Andrea G. called, "You gave me love". Ralph was literally thrilled by what he heard and asked if he could produce the song. He offered to fly to Italy to produce the track!
The production of the first two tracks, under Ralph Rolle’s guidance began January 2020. After the completion of production of those tracks, the global pandemic broke out and the realization of the album suffered a 20 month setback.
But the pandemic proved to be a musical positive for SōMuch. Great songs were written during the time at home and Ralph returned to Italy once travel was allowed and produced another three tracks for the band. The first track to be released is Studio 54, a dance floor filler that brings listeners back to the iconic New York nightclub. Studio 54 is now available on all streaming platforms.
You will be given the chance to hear more of the music of SōMuch very soon in an E.P. and you will find music that was born, made and produced from the hearts and souls of a group that believes that spreading love and happiness to the world is an absolute must.

What’s next?
The first EP of SōMuch and more new songs to be recorded and hopefully lots of live music.

Members of the band:
Valentina Salvi - vocals
Andrea Giovannini - guitar
Francesco Carli - drums
Roby Creazzo - vocals
Andrea Belloni - bass

Be The One Tonight – LowDown Brass Band
(Video)

“It’s practically impossible to stand still with this one. The beat pulls you in with a quality fusion of sounds from the American landscape. Nothing lights up a track like a proper horn section and clean vocals from the whole crew. ”

-Nagamag.com

“Be The One Tonight” is a classic party song that is a perfect example of how the LDB sound is evolving. You get the elements of the brass soli and instrumental at the beginning and in the middle of the song we are transformed into a modern “Trap” section of the tune, blending in elements of hip hop into the brass band sound. This song was a true collaboration and many of the artists in the collective offered their talents to the final product.

Calyco – Dance With U
(Video)

“Music that is focusing on your attention and as if it speaks with you – Come on, dance with me! Rhythmic and melodic funk, with high-quality sound, balanced sound arrangement and a quintet of charming vocalists!”

“Музыка, которая в мгновении фокусирует на себе ваше внимание и словно говорит с вами – давай же, потанцуй со мной! Ритмичный и мелодичный Funk, с качественным звучанием, сбалансированной аранжировкой и квинтетом из очаровательных вокалисток!”

-Nagamag.com

Dance with U is classic R&B/pop song with a hypnotic funk laced production. Its very catchy melody explains that sometimes you need to dance with a person before getting to know them a little better. Calyco have quickly established a trademark of smooth and slick lead vocals and lush harmonies, and this carries on the tradition. References for the song are Isley Brothers, SZA, Bruno Mars and Anderson Paak

Bandana – Last Children Standing – Extended Version – song by Artelia Green & the Bandanas | Spotify
(Spotify)

“Excellent musical synthesis with such a warm Nu Jazz style. Pleasant ringtone synthesizer effect, rustling rhythm-section and velvet voices. This advanced composition will accompany most of your evenings!”

“Отличная музыкальная составляющая, чья огромная доля приходится на ламповый и такой тёплый жанр Nu Jazz. Приятная на слух мелодия синтезатора, шуршание ритм-секции, словно осенняя листва под ногами и бархатные голоса вокалисток. Эта композиция украсит любой из ваших вечеров!”

-Nagamag.com

Reminiscent vocal chatter, buttery horns and soulful vocal runs unite to celebrate the abundance of black joy in the midst of an anti-black society. The syncopating “Soul Clap” throughout the song serves as a percussive reminder of the ever-so-present cool and consciousness-raising that is Black life.
