“Lush piano with just as amazing vocals. Rhythm pars are very subtle, but they fits beautifully in the mood of the song. Arrangement is good as it gets, love the string part at the end, it closes the song perfectly. ”

Melancholic is a song about losing yourself, and feeling like you’re about to give up. Jagger wrote the line “I’m in your arms but I can’t feel your touch”, thinking about how that line is a message to someone you love trying to explain how you feel. “Just let me be melancholy” is supposed to give off the feeling of letting go and just letting yourself feel “melancholy” or melancholic. The song title being Melancholic was supposed to be a little ironic as the feeling being described is a lot stronger than melancholy. This song for anyone who struggles with their mental health, relationship with themselves, or is just going through something right now. The hope is for everyone who hears this song uses it as inspiration, and feels more hopeful and uplifted after listening.

“A bit different than what I expected. Apart of strange but beautiful vocals and a lot of jazz influenced piano parts, different styles, but arranged great.

“Very positive vibe, cross between funk, house, disco with a modern production and beautiful vocals. You can feel the breeze while driving with an open window on a sunset, near the ocean.

Dieter van der Westen – Erie Canal

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

“Love this kind of smooth country song, full of nostalgia and mood that makes you think of past times. Great vocals and a guitar that goes with them. I can feel the autumn on this one, with leaves falling down while walking a dog in the park with this as a soundtrack.”

-Nagamag.com

The popular song "Low Bridge, Everybody Down" was written by Thomas S. Allen (although some have questioned its origins [1]), recorded in 1912,[2] and published by F.B. Haviland Publishing Company in 1913.[3] It was written after the construction of the New York State Barge Canal, which would replace the Erie Canal, was well underway, furthering the change from mule power to engine power, raising the speed of traffic. Also known as "Fifteen Years on the Erie Canal", "Fifteen Miles on the Erie Canal", "Erie Canal Song", "Erie Barge Canal", and "Mule Named Sal", the song memorializes the years from 1825 to 1880 when the mule barges made boomtowns out of Utica, Rome, Syracuse, Rochester, and Buffalo, and transformed New York into the Empire State.

The music cover published in 1913 depicts a boy on a mule getting down to pass under a bridge, but the reference to "low bridge" in the song refers to travelers who would typically ride on top of the boats. The low bridges would require them to get down out of the way to allow safe passage under a bridge.

Recordings

Early 20th century recordings of the song include ones by Billy Murray, Vernon Dalhart, and Jack Narz. The song has become part of the folk repertoire, recorded by folksingers like Glenn Yarborough, Pete Seeger and the Weavers, The Kingston Trio, the children's series VeggieTales, and artists like the Sons of the Pioneers. Dan Zanes included it on a children's album with Suzanne Vega singing lead. Bruce Springsteen recorded the song on his 2006 album We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions. The cartoon series Animaniacs parodied "Low Bridge" with their song about the Panama Canal. The lyrics are also the text of the book The Erie Canal (1970), illustrated by Peter Spier.

Leah Weller – Freedom

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

“Her vocals are beautiful, full with layers, deep, full of different vibes, depending of the verse of chorus lines, with just amazing string that follows. Bass line have a soul of its own, with the old school-ish rhythm section, fits perfectly with her vocals. Love the break, change of pace, with different spoken language, that it comes back with a verse, just great. ”

-Nagamag.com

Leah Weller uses the springboard of mindfulness, levity and the glowing response to her newest music by releasing the nourishing, swaying soul of her debut album’s title track: Freedom.

Embroidered with threads of singing strings, warm blankets of brass and Weller’s own vocals cutting through the wall of sound with crystalline clarity, the song’s story is unambiguously relatable. Freedom arrived on the outswing of the singer-songwriter’s twenties, a hectic decade’s strands pulling together in the alternate, head spinning universe of societal shutdown and the forming of new, grown-up paths, each built stronger with the benefit experience.

Reflecting on the irresistible, richly-orchestrated song, she says: “Freedom is one song that developed through lockdown, a time that was so tough for so many people and I feel no nostalgia for. I read a book called ‘Letting Go’ which dealt with being aware of our consciousness, just one of many similar I’ve been inspired by, where authors deal with the idea of us freeing ourselves from our egoic minds. Like then, I still like the idea of this sense of freedom, especially during a lockdown.”

Announcing the release of her first album with the cultured, main stage soul of Wonder at the beginning of August, Freedom’s twelve tracks link arms and form a protective circle around Weller and anyone else unshackled, or looking to break free of the chains of uncertainty. Philosophical, inspired and unafraid, united with the support of producer and key writing collaborator, Steve Craddock, Weller’s self-belief grew during recording sessions that spanned 2020 and 2021 between studios in Surrey and Devon.

The single pushes the singer-songwriter one square closer to the release of her first long-player on Fri 21 October 2022 with Modern Sky UK.

Nate Amor – Lose This Way

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

“Vocals on this one are the hook you need, it pulls you in since the first verse, strong and clean. Amazing vocalist, music just as great, layers of guitars, that fulfill the layers you need, same with rhythm section. It feels personal a lot, some much emotions are put into it. ”

-Nagamag.com

Singer and songwriter Nate Amor relocated to LA in 2022 with a fresh mind and fresh music followed. These new perspectives are the driver for a new album he worked on with legendary mixers Joe Zook and Drew Middleton. He delved into a unique sound, paying homage to Kings of Leon, Ray Lamontagne, and Chris Stapleton. But before the full album release, Nate Amor has some singles for you to snack on.

The first track on the menu was the soaring “Ain’t Hitting Me Yet”. Next up is the sweeping, “Lose This Way”.

A song dealing with the trauma of loss, the emotional devastation Nate details is a backdrop for a music video that paints the picture of the moments leading up to a beautiful wedding. Tensions run high when he sings lines like “Bring on the firing squad and/ fire away” while the video shows him as a supposedly happy groom getting his photo taken. But as the song and video progress, we see not everything is as it seems. This leads to a climax that brings an air of optimism. Powered by Nate’s signature vocals and guitar, the climax of the song is anthemic and cathartic.

As Nate elaborates:

“I was living in my friend’s basement. It was spring yet cold in Minnesota and this moment came over me to write a song that could encompass my recent divorce and the loss of my mother 18 months prior. It is a journey to say goodbye to my ex, wish her well, and to say that I’m accepting the loss of her. The truth was that I’d been so selfish. We ALL experience loss. Deaths of many kinds, it’s a part of life. This song helped me get out and release my grief, let go, and continue on.”

A Minneapolis native, Nate Amor grew up with a healthy appreciation for Elvis and The Beach Boys – all things Rock ‘n Roll Americana. His first time performing was at his high school talent show with a cover of Elvis’ “In the Ghetto”. He was hooked. The power of lyrics and positive transformative force of music has continuously fed Nate’s songwriting obsessions.

Nate is a member and vocalist of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, was featured on NBC’s The Voice, and as a solo artist has shared the stage with Train, Mat Kearney, and Marc Cohn.

In 2022 Nate relocated to LA to start a new musical adventure. With a collection of songs perfected over the past few years, he is now more ready than ever to bring his brand of Americana Rock to a global audience.

“Love the tempo on this one, fits great with vocals and music, you can feel the mood that goes with everything. Smooth vocals, guitars, lead parts are full with happiness, it is felt that it is a very personal message to someone. Love when you can feel something like within a song. ”

-Nagamag.com

Following the success of their latest release "Fake Crown", Twins of June, Jesper & Jonas Trumm, releases the single "Favorite Person", August 26th 2022.

"Favorite Person" was written at the beginning of lockdown, where the twins went from having a busy and stressful everyday life to a relaxed and calm life with time to dive into music. The calmness and tranquility of their new life served as a reminder to who and what is really important in life. Which inspored the lyrics to "Favorite Person" to be a conversation between two people, and a description of their shared relationship, memories and a reminder to support our loved ones.

"With Favorite Person we wanted to explore new sounds and universes from previous recordings, which resulted in a more pop/electronic arrangement. We are not a band that writes 10 of the same songs" – Jesper & Jonas Trumm

With references to Harry Styles they combine acoustic guitar, strings, synthesizer and retro/pop drum elements. They draw inspiration from different genres and artists; Passenger, Foy Vance & Ed Sheeran, Twenty One Pilots, Martin Garrix and Avicii. Twins of June reflect a variety of style and show their ability to write catchy summer tunes.

The twins will be touring in Germany in September, where "Favorite Person" will flourish as the latest release.

In addition to the release of their debut album "Home" in 2019 and their EP 'Memories', which reached #1 on the iTunes singer/songwriter chart, Twins of June have been on a handful of tours in Germany & Denmark in the past few years, supporting various artists, including Nicklas Sahl (DK), Rasmus Hagen (SE) and Tim Schou (DK).
