Sunday Driver announce their first single since 2020's ‘Time Machine’. Taken from their forthcoming new album Sun God, ‘Somewhere Nice’ is a hypnotic, poppy return from a band that like the rest of us is just about holding on! Whilst the song has very little lyrical content, what lyrics there are capture life in 2021 perfectly: I can see you holding on, but I don't believe my eyes, So let me take you on a ride somewhere nice.

This theme is echoed by guitar player Chemise's revolving 7/4 riff, which not only serves to make the track feel immediate and intricate but represents the lyrics and themes from the upcoming record.

On the song, lead singer Chandy Nath explains:

"Escapism, being transported to that ‘other place’ – whether real or imaginary – that’s what the song is fundamentally about. Even when everything seems to be falling apart, there’s a voice in your head that tells you that ‘here and now’ is transitory and that there will be a release from it all, maybe it’s inaccessible right now but it’s there and you will get to it, someday a long way from now.

This song has taken on new meaning for me after lockdown – it encapsulates a sense of being at breaking point but still managing to hold it together. Holding on to the conviction that we will (eventually) be somewhere else. Somewhere Nice.

For many people, the first lockdown meant being confined at home, with one day being much the same as another, and yet at the same time a sense of danger, of impending doom, of apocalypse. The sense of there being nowhere to go. Before Covid, ‘going somewhere’ was a pretty ordinary thing but in the immediate aftermath of lockdown even a drink at the local became a huge event."

The song bounces around playfully with Kat Arney's clarinet lines floating overhead, tight bass and drums and smatterings of genius from tabla maestro Kuljit Bhamra, his interactions with drummer Pete Mansfield find some particularly hopeful points of joy frequently.

More details on Sunday Driver’s new album Sun God will follow early 2022 alongside a string of new single releases.

Kange – Saudade (Spotify)

“"Saudade" turned out to be an unexpected, rhythmic and very melodic song. There is a peculiar kind of magic here, hidden somewhere between the piano notes and the variety of vocals. Something causing a huge energy flow into each single cell of your body.”

“У -Kange- получилась неожиданная, ритмичная и очень мелодичная песня. Есть своеобразная магия в этом треке, что-то спрятанное где-то между нотами пиано и разнообразием вокальнойых линий. То, что вызывает огромный приток энергии, которая просачивается во все клетки вашего тела.”

A sad fairytale of a young girl with love absent from her life. Her life is not a blessing and in death she finds freedom.

Arttu Silvast – On the Nightline (Spotify)

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

“Beautiful, emotional and very unusual work. The symbiosis of Ambient and Neoclassical always creates a strong vibration in the mind. Almost 6 minutes of peaceful sound, which are able to attract ones attention. Calm down and feel free of any painful weights.”

“Красиво, эмоционально и очень необычно. Симбиоз эмбиента и неоклассики всегда создаёт сильную вибрацию в душе. Практически 6 минут умиротворения, которые способны удержать на себе внимание. Успокоить, убаюкать и растворить в невесомости.”

-Nagamag.com

This ambient piece represents the feeling of staying up all night and listening to a night talk show on the radio somewhere in the late eighties in Helsinki. It’s raining, it’s dark outside but you get a warm and comforting feeling of listening to the familiar voice on the radio.

Ross Hollow – In The Quiet (Spotify)

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

“Music that reaches the listener through melodic images of unimaginable beauty, acoustic guitar rhythms and Indie folk mood. Very gentle vocals and the stream of the artist's consciousness is transmitted through the language of sound.”

“Музыка, которая достигает слушателя через мелодичные образы невообразимой красоты, акустическую гитару, ритмы и настроение indie folk. Очень нежный и откровенный вокал и поток сознания автора переданный через язык звуков.”

-Nagamag.com

In The Quiet is a folky ballad similar to Mumford and Sons. It is about moving away and being far from friends but still caring about them. The picking part was inspired by a classical guitar song called Lagrima by Francisco Tarrega.

Diane Arkenstone, David Arkenstone – She Reigns Through Tears – song by Diane Arkenstone, David Arkenstone | Spotify (Spotify)

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

“Airy, almost unreal vocals seep through the general lyrical mood. Such an interesting characteristic distinguishes this composition from many others earning the attention of many listeners. Magic music and great listening pleasure!”

“Через общее лирическое настроение просачивается воздушный, практически внеземной вокал. Такая интересная находка выделяет эту композицию среди многих других и заставляет обратить на себя внимание. Волшебная музыка, нереальное удовольствие от прослушивания!”

-Nagamag.com

Neo Pacifica Recordings announces the release today of a new single by iconic instrumentalists Diane Arkenstone and David Arkenstone. Titled “She Reigns Through Tears,” the track is taken from a forthcoming album, Avalon: Between The Earth And Sky, which is a follow up to their classic album Avalon: A Celtic Legend. The magical, fully orchestrated track produced by both, features Diane on guitar and vocalizations and David on keyboards, guitar, mandolin, penny whistle and programming. Accompanying them is Luanne Homzy on violin and viola.

The highly imaginative fantasy narrative of Avalon is continued on the new single, but from a feminine point of view. They note: “’She Reigns Through Tears’ represents the Queen's old life being torn from her, yet as Queen, she has the responsibility to carry on. Behind the crown she wears a stoic face and hides a saddened heart, while deep inside a powerful change is being born.”

ABOUT DIANE ARKENSTONE

For well over 20 years, musician Diane Arkenstone has gained worldwide acclaim with her extensive repertoire of distinctive instrumental recordings which garnered much success within the ambient, health and wellness circles. Diane has incredible success with Neo Pacifica, the independent label she launched with David Arkenstone in the late 90’s. Yet at heart, the singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist--who recalls penning her first song at age three, four years before she first picked up an acoustic guitar—has always been a soulful storyteller, passionate and artful at weaving emotions through a perfect blend of graceful melodies and poetic words.

Diane’s success in the realms of Celtic, global and Native American music is unparalleled, both as a recording artist and label/owner entrepreneur. Having seen the challenges her then-husband and frequent musical partner David Arkenstone was having with the big labels he had signed with, Diane—without any formal business training—launched Neo Pacifica Recordings and her publishing company Mulamu Music, with the simple goal of releasing their own music.

She has never let the lines of genre stop her from exploring the depths of music and where it can take her.
