Parlour Magic – Ville Rose
(Spotify)

“Parlour Magic with his new synthpop single -Ville Rose- under Lucky Cat Studios imprints, explores under a minimalistic layering way the retro harmonies we all love, through sweet melodic lines. ”

-Nagamag.com

"Ville Rose" is the new single from Parlour Magic, a new vintage synthpop project from NYC-based producer, media artist, and composer Luc Bokor-Smith (1995).

Parlour Magic's debut album, The Fluid Neon Origami Trick, will be released on December 4th, 2020. Origami was recorded in Las Vegas, Nevada in early 2020 – prior to the end of the world as we knew it – and mixed by Fab DuPont at Flux Studios in New York, NY.

The Fluid Neon Origami Trick was recorded using almost exclusively analog synthesizers, including the fabled Yamaha CS-80, Oberheim OB-XA, Roland Juno-60, and the Eminent Solina String Ensemble, among countless others.

Since graduating from Brown University with a BA in Music in 2018, Bokor-Smith has created several large-scale live multimedia installations, which are available to view at www.luc.fm, while also working as a producer and engineer in New York City.

Green Valdener – Sleep Walking (Spotify)

Green Valdener – Sleep Walking
(Spotify)

“Green Valdener and jaayns invite us into a -Sleep Walking- under the Sunday Choruses imprint, a gentely soulful pop chill which flows dreamy.”

-Nagamag.com

Sleep Walking is the second collaboration with Green Valdener for UK alternative artist Jaayns and follows their 2017 collaboration The Wrong Ones. Set within an ambient soundscape, this new collaboration explores the space of unconsciously being aware of how our life impacts on the world around us and how we are being unconsciously impacted by other people decisions and actions every day in return. Is it easier to stay asleep than put off dealing with the consequences of our actions?

Green Valdeners production is dreamy dark and epically chilled with a driving force which never quite provides the listener with resolution as it builds, pulls and falls away, yet is deeply pleasant to listen to. With a signature style that references back to their 2017 collaboration ‘The Wrong Ones’ this is a much more developed sound from Valdener.
