Marianne Brown – JUST BEFORE THE LIGHT
“Very clockwork, rhythmic rock ballad, from which he gives the cheerful spirit of the 90s. Chemistry between the musician and the performer led to the creation of such an impressive track. If you have not updated the list of your hits for a long time, then this work can easily stand in the first place! (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”
“Очень заводная, ритмичная рок-баллада, от которой отдает весёлым духом 90-ых годов. Химия между музыкантом и исполнителем привела к созданию столь впечатляющего трека. Если вы давно не обновляли список ваших хитов, то эта работа может легко встать на первое место!”

Just Before the Light (aka Hang On!) is an upbeat song about never giving up and always believing that thing are going to get better.
Major Spark – Beautiful Noise
“Find out some crazy psychedelic elements fused with Trip Hop and Rock ideas in “Beautiful Noise”. The different voices alternating in the performance, show bursts of inspired lyricism and create a formula of sheer ear pleasure. A must to listen!”
-Nagamag.com
Major Spark is Mark Goodman and producer Brian Charles. Their debut album Beautiful Noise is a stirring amalgam of garage rock, power pop, psychedelia, and synth-drenched textural soundscapes, all lovingly detailed, sturdily composed, and immediately catchy. Mark and Brian used drum loops and improvisational techniques to break free of their solid backgrounds producing dozens of indie rock albums.
Mark previously formed Magnet in 1995 when Moe Tucker from the Velvet Underground agreed to dust off her drums from the VU European reunion tour to record a full length titled Don’t Be a Penguin (PC Music/ADA). Mark also teamed with other talented musicians such as David Lowery (Cracker, Camper van Beethoven), Matt Wilson (Trip Shakespeare), and Steve Steve Schiltz (Longwave) for subsequent Magnet releases. Brian Charles is the owner of Zippah Recording Studio where he has produced and engineered excellent artists including Chad Stokes (Dispatch), The Sheila Divine, and Weakened Friends.
Major Spark aims to bring a positive vibe with lyrics that are plainspoken, sharp-witted, and instantly memorable. But there’s more to Major Spark than catchy melodies, and “Beautiful Noise,” the title track from the group’s debut, combines a classic EDM beat with vintage guitars and keys with vocals that pay homage to Hope Sandoval and James Murphy. Brian’s production on the track is spellbinding, wholly immersive, and marvelously moody. Goodman’s sense of play producing the videos shines through. For “Beautiful Noise,” director Roger Metcalf blended studio moments with female circus artists performing high above the ground, radiating grace and power with every move.

Bruce Sudano – Ode to a Nightingale
“This track is saturated with interesting rhythms and extraordinary solutions, in which -Bruce Sudano- professionally combined the mood of folk music and its deep, hoarse vocals. The female half of the listeners will be completely delighted! (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”
“Этот трек насыщен интересными ритмами и неординарными решениями, в котором -Bruce Sudano- профессионально совместил настроение Folk музыки и свой глубокий, хрипловатый вокал. Женская половина слушателей будет в полном восторге!”
-Nagamag.com
Bruce Sudano’s career has spanned decades and genres, working with Tommy James; rocking with Alive N Kickin’ and Brooklyn Dreams; writing hit songs for Donna Summer, Michael Jackson, and Dolly Parton. He even started up Purple Heart Recording Company to support the next generation of musicians. Even the pandemic did not stop this hit-making machine; instead, it fueled his creative vision and drive to achieve greatness. He donned the name “Super Bruce” for his ability to stay positive through some of life’s biggest hardships. He utilizes that persona to inspire listeners that anything is possible, so long as you believe in yourself.
Nightingales vividly represent beauty, melody, and tranquility, all components that make up Bruce Sudano. You could say a nightingale is his spirit animal – after all, the bird is known for its enchanting tunes. Bruce Sudano honors the scruffy bird in his latest track, “Ode to a Nightingale,” a breezy collection of guitar strums, bumping drums, and maraca shakes that soar above the daily routine. The music video is also unique and may suggest that Bruce Sudano may be entering a new era creatively. The video does not feature his classic cut-out animation style but instead is a mature and abstract visual with punchy colors and warping shapes. The video captures the free-spirited folk nature of the single, bringing viewers to a peaceful state of mind in the chaos of our everyday lives.

Artist said about this song:
"Recently, I was invited to a bar with a few friends. One of the friends I have liked for a long long LONG time. But she has always had a boyfriend. When we went out, she told me about how terrible her boyfriend treats her and how he cheats on her constantly; but she is still with him. This made me so angry because she literally deserves the world. And to know that she has to put up with his shit is heartbreaking. So I wrote "Tell Me" about that instance. In a nutshell, the song is basically about letting her know that I can treat her right and she can leave him and I will be able to make her happy."
