Chafa – Abyss (Spotify)
“Melodic, momentary creation with spiritual and atmospheric colors, bursting with your soul. To describe the beauty of the composition -Abyss- are not enough any words. It is worth to dive into it but is so deeep that return will not be easy.”
“Мелодичное, сиюминутное творение в душевных и атмосферных тонах, распирающее вашу душу. Чтобы описать всю красоту композиции -Abyss-, не хватит никаких слов. Стоит погрузиться в неё и вернуться будет совсем не просто. ”

Abyss is a piano & strings piece which I wrote after going through a very difficult phase in my life. It is a minimalistic, yet energetic piece of music which builds into a crescendo near the end of the song. The melodic swells and buildup are meant to capture the feeling of being lost - much like being stranded in an Abyss - and eventually finding your way back.

Beats In The Bank, Jack Gillen – Monday Jam (Spotify)
“In the distance, illuminated by the icy glow of city lights, plays -Monday Jam-. Like a painting illuminated fields, sound source of inspiration for the lonely souls. Lonely and thrilling voice, warm waves of the charm of Jazz and Chill-hop music.”
“Вдали, освещаемая ледяным светом городских фонарей, играет -Monday Jam-. Словно картина освещаемых полей, звучит источник вдохновения для одиноких душ. Одинокий и волнующий голос, тёплые волны Jazz и очарование Chill-hop музыки.”

Monday Jam is a chill hip-hop instrumental with soulful chords, punchy drums and a smooth jazzy guitar jamming on top, played by guitarist Jack Gillen. Inspired by golden age hip-hop and the late Ronny Jordan, this jazzhop/chillhop beat is perfect for a comfortable start of the day with the morning coffee, for unwinding in the evening, or as background music for study sessions.

Jordan Gillis – Overstand (Video)
“‘Overstand’ is a real throwback to the glory days of Bob Marley, yet at the same time has an up to date and timeless feel too, if that makes sense? You will understand when you hear the track. Classic Reggae vocals, rhythms & ska sounds, blended with a modern pop type iinjection that really works and makes this a very enjoyable listen.”

Overstand is a song about having a deeper understanding, the song was inspired from my time spent with various Rastas who would use the term
Skysia, Equanimous, Sommer Love – Lay Me Down (Spotify)
“A very clean and well produced downtempo track with elements of IDM, Glitch & Chillstep. A haunting vocal and emotional string section add a real sense of spaciousness and an ethereal quality. ‘Lay Me Down’ is a fine example of how each instrument can be heard in detail and with such clarity, when in the hands of a production team at the top of their game.”

Like an ocean – Domenico Quaceci (Video)
“Magical compilation of classic piano melodies from the hands of Domenico Quaceci. Energy shifts and Very smooth transitions, which can pull like magnet and lead us through the vast ocean waves. A truly excellent piece of sound.”
-Nagamag.com
The song is a moment in which perhaps unconsciously we perceive something, a sensation, an intuition, but this escapes us and we are therefore unable to understand but aware of having something more. There is so much to discover and so little time.

Innocenzo Genna – The Leopard (Spotify)
“Initially ispired by the movie "Leopard", the artist created his homonymous piece. Original classical style with strictly organized pattern build up. Give some true meaning to your listening time by choosing this unique sound.”
-Nagamag.com
Artist shared few words about this song with us:
"This composition was inspired by a couple of notes I heard when watching the movie "the Leopard" of Luchino Visconti in February 2012. Because of this, I named the music with the temporary name "The Leopard" but, as often it happens, the temporary title became the final one. After some time, I watched the movie again, however I was not able to recognise the scene with the inspiring notes. It is not unusual to get inspiration from a few notes giving rise to a fully autonomous composition, with the result that the the final outcome appears completely different from the inspiring notes."

Starboj, Lee “Scratch” Perry – For Real (Spotify)
“Featuring a number of well-known Jamaican musicians ‘For Real’ has a distinct traditional Reggae flavour, mixed with a feel good rock’n’roll feel. The variety of vocals and brass section lends an authenticity to the music that give the listener the impression that they are basking in the sunshine, sipping a rum punch or two. ”
-Nagamag.com
A blend of finest rock-steady-rhythms, Jamaican tones and rock’n roll are the result of several trips to Jamaica by Bert Katzianer aka Starboj. The musician from Austria recorded several studio sessions with well-known Jamaican musicians, like Lee Scratch Perry, Sly & Robbie, Eek-A-Mouse and U-Roy. Afterwards the songs were elaborately recorded and produced in Graz at the studio zollfreizone.
metty – Outdated (Spotify)
“Some kind of pure poetry in its exclusive apogee. There is a burning desire to go somewhere away from the city bustle, escape from the shackles and eventually spend a couple of nights on your favorite beach.”
“Чистая лирика в своём исключительном апогее. Возникает жгучее желание уехать от суеты городских оков куда-нибудь подальше, где будет возможность провести пару ночей на любимом берегу. ”
