Tors – Garden On The Kitchen Floor

about the freedom one can find in their life calling. That purpose, that we often refuse to see, embrace, or sometimes never get to exploit fully, because of this distracting life experience…then one day something happens, a scary force drives one out of the safety net, into the divine unknown. Deliverance.
Julia Romana – Wash It Off
“It is very interesting to plunge into the atmosphere of the track, in which the melody is only a slight element of the sound canvas. The Indie Pop rhythm, vocals -Julia romana- from the otherworldly universe and the state of complete arthouse within the framework of the musical work. Something incredible!” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)
“Очень интересно погрузиться в атмосферу трека, в котором мелодия лишь незначительный элемент звукового полотна. Ритм indie pop, вокал -Julia Romana- из потусторонней вселенной и состояние полного артхауса в рамках музыкального произведения. Нечто невероятное!”

London-based Austrian singer-songwriter Julia Romana shares new left-field, dark pop single ‘Wash It Off’, out everywhere on 17 July.
Naming artists like Thom Yorke, Lykke Li, FKA Twigs and Lana Del Rey as her main inspirations, ‘Wash It Off’ captivates from the very first note. Produced by composer and producer Veronika Hanl, the build up of ethereal electronic beats combined with Julia’s sultry voice lures the listener in, culminating in a mesmerising dreamscape that lives somewhere in the space between pensive and affirmative.
Speaking of the track, Julia says, “When writing I like to keep my lyrics as abstract and vague as possible so the song doesn’t need to be constricted by a storyline. Songs can have an open end, they can flow in and out of different moods.”
Making music from a young age Julia Romana has honed her craft into what it is today, which is both innovative and exciting. Having collaborated with artists such as Duckwrth, G.L.A.M and Alex Mali, this has allowed Julia to find her voice in music whilst creating her own distinctive sound and path.
When talking about the track Julia says, “I wrote Wash It Off during the peak of Corona times when all we could do was watch TV series and try to stay sane at home. The song is about the pursuit of finding excitement and letting go. It’s about opening oneself up to new experiences, washing off old patterns.
I hope people who listen to my music can find a sense of peace with themselves. Self acceptance, meditation, growth and the complexities of human relationships are common themes in my songs. ‘Wash It Off’ is a motivation to let go of things that don’t serve you. I’d love to see people dance to it and I hope it can make them feel free and empowered to be themselves.”
Julia has always been fascinated by sounds and art from a very young age. At the age of 8, she started using the voice memo function on her phone to create ‘beats’ by recording claps and household objects. In art school, she got her first MacBook pro where GarageBand was pre-installed, and she started experimenting with making music there. Her first album ‘Opening’ was made purely in GarageBand.
Over the last few years, Julia has fallen in love with collaborating on music with other people, in particular her long-time collaborator and friend, composer and producer Veronika Hanl. She says, “Creating art is such an essential part of my existence and sharing that experience is one of the best feelings in the world.”

Mick Dimitri – Every Story
“Each story has a beginning and an end and not always its completion in positive colors. This complex, melancholy, but incredibly beautiful instrumental composition tells a very sad story, behind which a very delicate and heartbreaking melody is hidden.” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)
“У каждой истории есть начало и конец и не всегда её завершение в позитивных тонах. Эта сложная, меланхоличная, но невероятно красивая инструментальная композиция повествует очень грустную историю, за ширмой которой скрывается очень нежная и душещипательная мелодия.”

Solo artist and multi-instrumentalist, Mick Dimitri, has written, performed and produced his own material since he was 13. The Italian singer-songwriter has already amassed an impressive UK press support having released his EP Take My Hand in 2021. However, a chance meeting with Girl Named Tom, prompted Mick to consider working with another artist on his forthcoming single, Every Story.
Having been introduced in March 2020 by Ed Sheeran’s mentor and Nizlopi frontman, Luke Concannon, Mick and Girl Named Tom immediately hit it off. Both struggling to adapt to the confines of the pandemic, they instantly became friends bonding over music. Mick shared his track with the band, leading to singer Bekah Lending her stunning vocal to the song. The depth of Bekah’s delivery gave Every Story a whole new meaning. Fast forward 12 months and Girl Named Tom would be crowned winners of The Voice US, adding yet another layer of intrigue to a track that had continuously evolved over a two year period.
Produced and arranged by Mick himself, Every Story opens with sombre piano notes juxtaposed with Bekah’s rich, emotive vocal, as Mick’s smooth, soulful vocal offers a satisfying harmony to the song. In a world where many tracks are heavily over-stylised, Every Story is stripped back and sparse, a brave piece of songwriting that offers no hiding place for the performers,
Mick got his first big break in the music industry whilst waiting tables for Ed Sheeran in 2018. They became friends and Ed invited Mick to open for him on his Divide tour – alongside Zara Larsson and James Bay. His debut EP Take My Hand was released in March 2021 with press support coming from the likes of Contact Music, Fame Magazine, The Vinyl District and many more.
Every Story is due for release on 17th June 2022.
