PAPA Sound x Jamkid – Mannen (Skull Edit)
(Video)

“The track confidently holds the rhythm specified by the AFROBEATS genre and sounds so atmospheric that you feel as if you are in the walls of a huge club, where -papa Sound and Jamkid-. Yes, such music can wake anyone! (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“Трек уверенно держит заданный жанром Afrobeats ритм и звучит настолько атмосферно, что создаётся ощущение, как будто находишься в стенах огромного клуба, где за пультом красуются -PAPA Sound и Jamkid-. Да, подобная музыка способна разбудить любого!”

Mannen’s created on the same riddim (instrumental) as One Bagga Shh!. It’s an energetic dance song with flavors from dancehall, afropop and reggae. The song is performed by Jamkid from Rågsved, Stockholm. Jamkid got the name from his parents who saw that Jombo (his real name) hummed and danced to dancehall and reggae, and give him the name “the jaming kid”, later Jamkid. Mannen’s all about loyalty and suburban friendship that leads to disappointments. Boys often call each other “brother”, “fam”, “akhi” and so on, men who later get into the backside of the street with money, hype or drugs, they turn their backs on each other. Instead of remembering that you belong together and have shared moments and successes.

The word “Mannen” means something like an upset: “Hey, what are you doing!”

Synapson x David Walters – An Rev
(Spotify)

“The melody organically exists within the framework of musical reality invented by composers. Positive and rhythmic wyb contributes to a complete immersion in the musical canvas. This music carries an exceptionally positive charge of energy. What else do you need from music? (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“Мелодия органично существует в рамках придуманной композиторами музыкальной реальности. Позитивный и ритмичный вайб способствует полному погружению в музыкальное полотно. Это музыка несёт исключительно позитивный заряд энергии. А что ещё нужно от музыки?”

Multiplatinum French producer Synapson collab with long time friends David Walters. David is a French multi-instrumentist and singer from the Caraïbe, and after a magical moment in the studio where David improvised, both Synapson and David decided to work together on what seemed to them like a really special song. David gives Synapson electro beats an afro-Caribbean touch that fits perfectly into Synapson’s universe and to the ambient feeling of this beginning of summer.

Kristen Martell – Should I Run

Kristen Martell – Should I Run
(Spotify)

“The vocals -kristen Martell - reminds the incomparable voice of Dolores O'Riordan from The Cranberries, which instantly falls in love with the very first seconds of performance. Add here the elegant melody of Chamber Pop, a light rhythm and something incredible in front of you! (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“Вокал -Kristen Martell- напоминает бесподобный голос Dolores O'Riordan из группы The Cranberries, что моментально влюбляет в себя с самых первых секунд исполнения. Добавьте сюда элегантную мелодию Chamber Pop, лёгкий ритм и перед вами нечто невероятное!”

-Nagamag.com

Opening with the familiar gentle sound of Kristen’s warm acoustic guitar, ‘Should I Run’ soars into orchestral folk pop territory with lush vocal layers, dynamic arrangements and driving percussion. It’s a bold new track that offers us a glimpse of what is to come from the continued collaborative effort with acclaimed songwriter turned Producer Gabrielle Papillon and Dan Ledwell.

‘Should I Run’ chronicles the artist's internal struggle with dissociating in times of stress and conflict. ‘I wrote the song during a time when I started to become conscious of my habit of zoning out’ states Martell. ‘At some point in my life I learned it was easier to hide and numb my emotions than to speak up and be heard. It’s a common trauma response and I’m only now starting to uncover how it has influenced all aspects of my life’.

‘Should I Run’ is for anyone who has trouble speaking their needs. It’s for anyone who has learned to shrink in the face of adversity. It’s for those whose voices have not been heard. It’s for the recovering people-pleasers. It’s a reminder to stand still through the discomfort, for only then can a new outlook begin to unfold.

Along with ‘Photograph of Secrets’ (Apr 2021) and ‘Quiet Hearts’ (Oct 2021), ‘Should I Run’ is the 3rd single from Martell’s forthcoming record Every Season scheduled for release on September 30, 2022.

Ink Sticks & Stones – Les derniers vestiges
(Spotify)

“One gets the impression that the cello and singing of the piano are forgiven with each other. Fear of loss of something important and the anticipation of loneliness tears the heart into two halves. And only music is able to arrange everything in its place. Only music. Always music. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“Складывается впечатление, словно плачь виолончель и пение фортепиано прощаются друг с другом. Страх потери чего-то важного и предвкушение одиночества разрывают сердце на две половинки. И только музыка способна всё расставить по своим местам. Только музыка. Всегда музыка.”

Les derniers vestiges is the fifth track off of Ink Sticks & Stones' latest EP release called Après la tombée du ciel. The album is a complete journey from chaotic and epic, to calm and minimal, exploring what happens once the world has ended.

Les derniers vestiges is a duet between a piano and a cello. Both melancholic with moments of hope, they recall memories of what used to be as they exchange back and forth the melody. It is an intimate song great for daydreaming, looking back on the past, while reading a book or studying, or simply getting lost in another world for a few minutes.

The music video represents the recall of this past life by exploring the remnants of what humans left behind under the risen sea after the end of the world. Entirely made using UnReal's video game engine (an unconventional technology for music videos), it is an animation as relaxing as the song itself.

John Hayes – Almost Amen
(Spotify)

“It will seem to you that you almost took place to heaven, the doors will soon open your secrets and you will find yourself in the way to forgiveness. And inside you will sound an echo of the Echo unfamiliar to you - let it be so. It is amazing how much the combination of Ambient and Neo Classical genres affects consciousness. Bliss. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“Вам покажется, что вы почти что достучались до небес, двери скоро приоткроют свои тайны и вы окажетесь на пути к прощению. И внутри вас прозвучит отголосок незнакомого вам эха — да будет так. Удивительно, насколько сильно воздействует на сознание сочетание жанров Ambient и Neo Classical. Блаженство.”

-Nagamag.com

John Hayes is a multi-instrumentalist and producer from Minneapolis, Minnesota.

John’s musical journey began after receiving formal piano training during his youth. With a penchant for non-traditional styles and playing techniques, his tendency to get into trouble with his instructors grew over the years. At a young age, he was destined to become a sonic explorer, attune to the more uninhibited musical environments.

In 2018, John released his debut solo album, By The Woods, a collection of sparse, muted piano compositions that saw glimmers of the artist’s vision. In 2020, he followed this up with The Last Best Place, a powerfully tender album devoted to a friend who had passed away. The somber atmosphere and cathartic energy are palpable over the eleven songs.

Later that year, Hayes’ next project was a collaborative effort with Maxy Dutcher, putting out Borealis on Moderna Records. The release saw Hayes expand on his spacious piano compositions and move into a more intricate layered harmonic territory full of neo-classical stylings and electronic influences ranging from trance to experimental dance.

John finished off an illuminating 2020 with a second collaboration, this time with fellow Minnesota composer and producer Eiskavon called Du Nord released on Western Vinyl. The two artists met through the Minneapolis music scene and became quick confidants, as a few songs turned into an EP before blossoming into a full-length album. Taking cues from influences spanning Chopin to Eno, the duo provided the perfect soundscape for the Midwestern winter.

Hayes' music has won the support of notable tastemakers, including KEXP, BBC, and James Heather's Soho Radio show "Moving Sounds." He also previously served regularly as the resident pianist for the award-winning Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.

John currently writes, records, and produces music from his studio in Denver, Colorado.

Marína Ósk – Einsemd
(Spotify)

“You will not notice how you will blame your glass, which was filled with you before listening to this jazz composition. The last hope is fraught in the soul that the moment of anticipation of something important will never end, but the curtain falls and you are again alone with yourself. What remains, how to turn on this miracle to repeat again and again. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“Вы не заметите, как опустеет ваш бокал, который был наполнен вами до начала прослушивания этой джазовой композиции. В душе таит последняя надежда, что момент предвкушения чего-то важного никогда не закончится, но падает занавес и вы вновь наедине с самим собой. Что остаётся, как включить это чудо на повтор вновь и вновь.”

-Nagamag.com

Einsemd is the first single from Marína Ósk's second solo album, One Evening in July, to be released in August 2022 with Swedish Record Label TengTones. Music and lyrics were written by Marína Ósk.

Einsemd (transl. Loneliness) is a bluesy, walking ballad, where a lonesome trumpet has a dreamy conversation with a misty voice, while a crying guitar and a moody double bass try to make create a steady heartbeat.

The lyrics describe an evening when the storyteller is about to go to sleep but simply can't - because their better half is not there. They talk to the night, stare into the dark nothing and wonder when this loneliness will end. Even if you don't understand each word, the bluesy feeling might get you anyway!

The song is played by Icelandic jazz vocalist's quartet, "Marína Ósk Kvartett"; an Icelandic/Swedish drum-less jazz band. The band was put together by Marína Ósk herself with the intention of finding other musicians who happen to love the same kind of jazz she does; oldish swing jazz from the 50's. She found her musical soulmates in Icelandic guitar player Mikael Máni Ásmundsson and the Tengholm brothers from Sweden, trumpeter Erik and double bassist Johan.

Prime Punk – Cyberland
(Spotify)

“It is interesting to observe how the melodic line of this PsyTrance track develops. The rhythmic pattern slowly inserts into a state of trance, only sometimes making a short pause, and then again immerses you in a psychedelic, viscous atmosphere. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“Интересно наблюдать, как развивается мелодичная линия этого Psytrance трека. Ритмический рисунок медленно вводит в состояние транса, лишь иногда делая непродолжительную паузу, а потом вновь погружает вас в психоделическую, вязкую атмосферу.”

Edwin – Dead Air
(Spotify)

“-Edwin- gently sings in unison with the acoustic melody of his soul. They, as one, as if a small stream entered a large river and already together they went to conquer the previously unknown shores. A melody that does not let go to the very end. And, to be honest, I do not want it to end. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“-Edwin- нежно поёт в унисон с акустической мелодии своей души. Они как одно целое, словно маленький ручей вошёл в большую реку и уже вместе они отправились покорять неизведанные ранее берега. Мелодия, которая не отпускает до самого конца. И, если честно, не хочется, чтобы она заканчивалась.”

-Nagamag.com

Dead Air is the 7th track on Edwin's newest LP, West. Jacob and Matthew Boll began recording the songs for West in the beginning of 2020 as people went on lockdown in their homes across the world. Every song from the record was recorded remotely, Matthew from the wilderness of Michigan and Jacob from sunny L.A. Joined by their friends from all over America, Dead Air features Sean Carey (Bon Iver, S. Carey) on drums, Bobby Lord (Jagged Jaw) on Wurlitzer, Ben Lester (Bon Iver, The 1975) on pedal steel, and Cobey. on guitar. This song was written about a person looking for comfort and an identity but coming up short, unsatisfied

Cymek – Take His Place (feat. Josephina)
(Spotify)

“A very complex drawing of a rhythm-section in which the elements of Chillstep are present. The pits are simply amazing, falling into which you fall into the abyss, and then again, taking another sip of fresh air, throws you to the very bottom of the deep ocean cavity. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“Очень сложный рисунок ритм-секции, в котором присутствуют элементы Chillstep. Ямы просто потрясающие, попадая в которые проваливаешься в бездну, а потом вновь, сделав очередной глоток свежего воздуха, бросает вас на самое дно глубокой океанской впадины.”

-Nagamag.com

"Take His Place" was written about longing after a lost love, and the desire to replace a current partner with that person you're dreaming about. The song is performed by bass music artist Cymek and vocalist Josephina, and is released by Excision's label Subsidia.

(Spotify)

“Music, which is very missing in our vain world. Music, which pulls out the soul that hides somewhere inside your body. Music, which seems to communicate with you in a language that is understandable only to you. The music of life. Music that is able to extinguish darkness in your heart. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“Музыка, которой очень сильно не хватает в нашем суетном мире. Музыка, которая вытаскивает наружу спрятавшую где-то внутри вашего тела душу. Музыка, которая словно общается с вами на понятном лишь вам языке. Музыка жизни. Музыка, которая способна погасить тьму в вашем сердце.”

Nathan Horst and Jesse Proctor initially met in 2014 and collaborated on music for film and television. Locking into a groove, the pair unveiled the Silhouettes EP during 2017 as The Light The Heat.
