Beatnik Neon – Mien (Video)
“”Mien” is a story about a killer who’s ready to chase his next victim. Trip-Hop style with hypnotic singing and lyrics that can put us inside the horror story! Are you strong enough to experience this adventure, or you’ll just skip it?”

Conceptually a song about a stalker, who wants to play cat and mouse mentally with their victim.

Quintus Delacroix – The Last Tango
“The time has come for “The Last Tango”! Surprising Drum & Bass work with light mood and soft pads. After a huge two-minute intro, the track shifts dynamically into its real character with faster bpm and still unpredictable flow. Ideal candy for all listeners of electronic sound.”

Charm the Riot – Supersonic Waves (Spotify)
“This Hip-Hop track has them all. Original old style, clever rhymes and rich background mix of sounds. Are you into this kind of music? If so, hurry up to catch these "Supersonic Waves". One more dynamite for your ears.”
-Nagamag.com
Musically, the track sports a funk bass line that coincides with the idea of waviness and chill excursions. Lyrically, the message is meant to inspire; clean, honest, determined. Vocally, it's hunger, it's vulnerability, it's victory, wrapped in satin and sauce. A "feel good" song to lose yourself to.

Synapson, Bab L’ Bluz – Waylalah (feat. Bab L’ Bluz) (Spotify)
“Collaborative single with a special kind of Indie Electronic mood. Discover a sound mix of 3D atmospheric effects and vocals which travel you somewhere in the East. "Waylalah" blows like a breeze of fresh air, strong enough to help you stay active until the end of your busy day.”
-Nagamag.com
The multiplatinum producer duo Synapson presents « Waylalah », a new single with Berber influence in collaboration with a French-Moroccan band Bab L’ Bluz. Always inspired by unique and global sounds from around the world, the boys continue their journey in Morocco and present an infused electronic single with typical Maghreb instruments and lyrics in Darija.
The release will be out on the day of their Paris show at the Trianon and in the middle of a European tour.

It was a holiday bromance that led to the formation of the duo. That was a long time ago, and it was an impressive fusion from the get-go. Together, these two didn’t waste any time before blending together their inspirations, which came together like clockwork. As soon as Paul relocated to Paris, they set their equipment to work, lighting up their keypads and rhythm boxes, to create the first tones of Synapson. “It’s a mix of atmospheres” they noted, where jazz and rap are coated with soul melodies and underpinned by the buzz of deep house. Their music is brimming with passion and comes straight from the heart, which ultimately gives it a chameleon effect as you could be anywhere when you listen to it - on a dusty road in the middle of nowhere or in the heat of a packed club.
Loulita Gill, Aron Bicskey – Will You? (Spotify)
“Gentle Dream Pop work with classical influences and light, leading vocals. This track emphasizes on the importance of emotional support between people. If it happens to face a difficult situation when others could stand by and make things better with even a few words, will they do so?”
-Nagamag.com
We have all been there when we don’t want answers, fixes, good advice or helpful suggestions. In fact, we just need a person to be there, so we don’t feel alone in our hurt. But it’s often easier said than done. When we try
to help someone by ‘fixing’ them and their problems, it only minimises their pain and can lead to a breakdown in communication and ultimately silent resignations.
Will You? is a gentle, almost broken and anxious, request to just be there... not to try and solve anything but be truly seen and heard. It is an emotional plea for a simple act of kindness to make a person feel loved, to feel hope.
Set on a landscape of ethereal piano, the vocals and words stand out as the focal point of the track. The harmonies build in the bridge, and finally drops to
a tender chorus, which is the final admonition and agreement to just be there.

KKsings – Nothing at all (Video)
“This pure Rock single is like a blooming flower. While being simple and almost silent at the beggining, it gradually becomes more complicated and louder towards the end. Carefully arranged sound, with dominating guitar chords and lyrics of deep meaning. The artists have also done great work on visuals and we recommend to watch their clip too.”

The lead singer Cristoffer Csanady tells us about it:
"I had revisited Barcelona a few days before we recorded it. Walking around my old neighborhood with a friend I started pointing out spots and telling him stories from my time there and this melody started playing in my head. In the studio we didn’t really have time to rehearse or arrange the song which turned out the be perfect. The spontaneity in the recording gave the song a life that I never could have written."
This track will be released together with AstroMike Gordons EP ”Reviresco” that is out now.
