Neil Nathan – Be Still My Ever Beaten Heart
“-Neil Nathan- has a unique voice that refers to the era of the 80-90s and it can rightfully be compared with the incomparable vocals -Chris norman-. A slow, melancholy track, with a very sincere, slightly dreary atmosphere for real romantics.” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)
“-Neil Nathan- обладает уникальным голосом, который отсылает к эпохе 80-90-ых годов и его по праву можно сравнить с бесподобным вокалом -Chris Norman-. Медленный, меланхоличный трек, с очень душевной, немного тоскливой атмосферой для настоящих романтиков.”

Inside the Song
This song is about that scary moment just before one risks trusting another and opens themselves up to potential heartbreak. It's got some Ron Sexsmith and Chris Isaak vibes. I hope you enjoy it. This is the second single from my upcoming album, Blue Sky Wide Open, to be released in the Fall
Inside the Recording
This song was written during my travels in England a few years back. We ended up using the demo vocal on the final recording as it captured the mood of the song in those first fresh moments after it was written. The music was recorded remotely during lockdown, bassist Pemberton Roach in the USA, drummer Beto Ferrari & co-producer/guitarist/engineer Thales Posella in Brazil.
Inside the Video
Directors Kevin Shaw, Cole Decker and I were planning on shooting a whole different video in Philadelphia for a different song the weekend the country went into lockdown! We stayed in touch and two years later came around to this idea of an intimate retrospective look inside the mind of the artist through the lens of his past music videos. We projected the video montage on the wall behind me, while I sang this song about releasing another new song into the world. A reflective look back and forward. I plan to release this montage video within the video as well. We had a blast working together. They road tripped to my home one weekend, and I literally moved everything out of my entire upstairs floor, so we could turn it into a music video set. One of my fave moments from the shoot was when they dropped old photos from the various stages of my music career on top of me as I lay on the floor. The album cover is a shot from the video.

Francisco Sola – I’ll Be Gone
“The ringing of the guitar strings is like morning rain outside the window - a drop falls on the threshold of your house. It's time to open the door and let Folk melody into your heart. The time has come to warm up the warmth of vocals -francisco Sola and the atmosphere of unity with nature.” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)
“Звон струн гитары как утренний дождь за окном — капля за каплей падает на порог вашего дома. Пришло время приоткрыть двери и впустить мелодию folk в своё сердце. Пришло время согреться теплотой вокала -Francisco Sola- и атмосферой единения с природой.”

David Arkenstone – Daughter of the River
“Far away from the civilized world and deep inside the wild forest, lies the "Daughter of the River". Mythical production based on classical instrumentation and meditating vocal effects. This sound travelled us back in time, in an era of fantasy and magic.”
-Nagamag.com
5-time GRAMMY-nominated instrumentalist & composer David Arkenstone has established himself as one of the best contemporary instrumentalists of our time. A musical storyteller and true visionary, David is passionate about taking listeners on a journey, creating sonic tapestries that evoke every emotion. He delivers ‘Daughter of the River’ as a celtic-inspired piece. Arkenstone says, its “a song for the mysterious Goldberry, and her fabled story of actually being a river-spirit of the Withywindle. The beautiful voice of Jillian Aversa, harp and flutes with simple harmonies made her musical portrait come to life.” This is part of an upcoming ‘Music Inspired By Middle Earth' album in Summer 2022. David has released more than 60 critically acclaimed studio albums and his music has been featured on Amazon's Spa and Classical channels for many years. He’s also worked on multiple video game soundtracks, including Emperor: Battle of Dune and the World of Warcraft series.

Strehlow – Rainbow Roll
“There is music in the world that will not make you listen to the depths of the philosophical text or delve into the variety of complex rhythm sections. There is music that you want to relax and distract from everything that surrounds you. And what could be better than enjoying the mood of Lo-Fi Jip-Hop along with the new track from -strehlow-. Bliss.” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)
“Есть в мире музыка, которая не заставит вас вслушиваться в глубину философского текста или вникать в разнообразие сложной ритм-секции. Есть музыка, под которую хочется расслабиться и отвлечься от всего, что вас окружает. А что может быть лучше, чем насладиться настроением lo-fi jip-hop вместе с новым треком от -Strehlow-. Кайф.”

Ossolo x The Crushboys – 2003
“It was very pleasant to return to the era of the dawn of the festivals when such tracks in the Old-School House genre sounded from all windows. And, which is doubly nice, so far this web of intoxicating rhythm and a positive atmosphere is able to disperse blood throughout the body!” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)
“Было очень приятно вернуться в эпоху самого рассвета фестивалей, когда подобные треки в жанре old-school house звучали изо всех окон. И, что вдвойне приятно, до сих пор этот вайб из опьяняющего ритма и позитивной атмосферы способен разогнать кровь по всему организму!”

Charas Lounge – Conca
“In this composition, Jazz’s breathing, Trip-Hop and Lounge rhythms are heard, and even downtempo, and in this beautiful stylistic assortment one of the main advantages of the track is hidden-the clarity of the structure and the main line of narration. Fabulous!” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)

Lévie – Echo
“So many emotions, their real and endless stream and just a few lines of this Alt Pop track. It's just incredible! And everything seems to be extremely simple, there is nothing intricate, but it is so nice to listen to every sung -lévie -word.” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)
“Столько эмоций, их настоящий и нескончаемый поток и всего в нескольких строках этого alt pop трека. Это просто невероятно! И вроде бы всё предельно просто, нет ничего замысловатого, но так приятно вслушиваться в каждое спетое -Lévie- слово.”
-Nagamag.com
Echo is upbeat song about having to tell the person you love what you mean to them even when it feels repetitive, and like you're stuck in a loop. The hook plays with the idea that sometimes saying I love you might feel "corny" or "too much," and the verses play into that motif.
