I Like Cake – Joel McColl
Music Review:
“Ο κεφάτος και χαρούμενος ρυθμός φτιάχνει κατευθείαν τη διάθεση σου και γεμίζει την μέρα σου με φως. Η ακούραστη και ευδιάθετη μελωδία διώχνει μακριά τις έγνοιες σου και αφήνει το σώμα σου ελεύθερο σε ανέμελες και διασκεδαστικές κινήσεις. Η θετική ενέργεια των φωνητικών γίνεται το κατάλληλο τονωτικό σου και η αψεγάδιαστη χροιά τους κάνει τα πάντα να φαίνονται πιο εύκολά.”

Lyrics of Joel McColl – I Like Cake
I Like Cake
I like cake for breakfast, I like cake for lunch
I like cake in the middle of the day just for a little munch
But for dinner it’s a salad ‘cuz the doctor said watch what you eat But a big ole slice of chocolate cake can make any meal complete
CHORUS
Yeah I like cake, I like cake
I like cake, it puts the good into goodness sake I like cake
Now, some cakes are flat, others profoundly round
Some cakes rise up to the sky, others are upside down
Got your strawberry short and the ever popular pound
Just one bite of my wife’s lemon cake makes the world go round
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Four eggs, two cups of milk and three cups of flour
Two sticks of butter, some sugar and you bake for half an hour Set your oven to 352, put it on the middle rack and
You’ll have a cake when you get back Jack
Now you got your angel food and your devil’s food as well
A slice of cake is a slice of heaven ‘cuz it tastes as good as hell
CHORUS 2x
And pie ain’t so bad either…

Someday I’ll Find You (feat. Simon Moullier) – Naama
Music Review:
“Η γλυκιά και παιχνιδιάρικη μελωδία απλώνεται τριγύρω μας και μας κάνει να τα δούμε όλα πιο μαγικά και όμορφα. Τα θεσπέσια φωνητικά μαγεύουν την ψυχή μας με την καθαρή χροιά τους και τις απίστευτες δυνατότητες τους. Οι χαμηλές νότες τους είναι τόσο σταθερές και κεντραρισμένες που μας φέρνουν σε απόλυτη ισορροπία. Ο ήρεμος ρυθμός χαλαρώνει κάθε σημείο του σώματος μας αλλά και τις αισθήσεις μας.”

Jaque de Reinas – Piroklastica de Belgrado
Music Review:
“Ωραία και δυναμική η εισαγωγή της μελωδίας που μας προκαταβάλει για αυτό που θα ακολουθήσει. Τα νεραϊδίσια και γοητευτικά φωνητικά χαϊδεύουν τα αφτιά μας και με τη σιγουριά τους μας κάνουν να πατάμε σταθερά στα πόδια μας αλλά και χανόμαστε στην φαντασία μας. Ο ρυθμός με ένα μυστηριακό στυλ μας παρασύρει σε μια άκρως απολαυστική και ελκυστική ατμόσφαιρα.”

The Flesh of Birds – E.G. Phillips
“Η υπέροχη, ρομαντική μελωδία με το μαγικό άγγιγμα της κάνει τα πάντα γύρω να φαίνονται πιο όμορφα και μαλακώνει την ψυχή μας. Τα θεσπέσια φωνητικά απόλυτα ταιριασμένα είναι τόσο γλυκά και διακριτικά, ενώ νιώθουμε την ειλικρίνεια τους και την αλήθεια τους μέσα μας. Με την καθαρή χροιά τους και τη σταθερή ροή τους χαϊδεύουν πραγματικά τα αφτιά μας. Ο ήρεμος ρυθμός μας καθησυχάζει και διώχνει τις κακές σκέψεις μας.”

Would you – Charly Brown
“Really catchy song, with so addictive harmonic structure and interesting lead vocal. His voice is so catchy, can easily remind us of some pop classics.

Rust Roest’ is the first single off the upcoming debut album of Brussel-based artist Nite Kite. It will be released on all digital streaming platforms on February 17th, 2025.
After his previous EP ‘En Plein Air’ (2022) caught the attention of Belgian media, Nite Kite has ambitiously continued his journey. In the wake of that release, he invited other musicians to join him in playing his music. ‘Rust Roest’ is one of those first songs and the collective work shapes the song.
The resulting single is still wholly Nite Kite: melancholic piano melodies interwoven with hypnotic synth sequences, haunting yet always resolving with quiet hope. To highlight and accentuate spontaneous interplay and close friendships, he found an isolated studio in nature to host an eclectic group of musician friends. The final live-tracked performance is refreshingly human for an electronic genre; piano, synths, double bass, drums, and electronica come to life, weaving together (proof of) an intimate exchange, blurring the line between composition and pure improvisation.
This first single perfectly bridges the gap between Nite Kite’s earlier work, which came into being from a solitary process, and the upcoming album, a collective effort of more than ten people, and sets the mood for the forthcoming full album.
Artist quote: “This is really a song left lingering from the previous chapter of Nite Kite, minimalistic melodies written around sequences. Now I feel myself transitioning, together with the others, to a new, more collective phase of the music.”

Say It – lindsay
“Smooth and very easy listening sounds make this song very enjoyable. Catchy guitar riffs are layered so well, creating wonderful atmosphere within the song and lead vocal is just so graceful, crispy and really beautiful. Especially when becomes a duet, structure and the whole song feels much more deeper and emotional.”

Lyrics of lindsay – Say It
In the silence
Of a stream
You’re the current pulling me
Lingers quiet
In the reeds
Open up your dreams
Say that you love me
with your eyes
Say that you love me
Let go of your disguise
Say it once
Say it again
I’m broken love only you mend
Say it slow
Say it again
I’m broken love only you mend
As you’re nursing over me
there’s a warmth that I perceive
Like a stranger, unforeseen.
You heal a part of me
Say that you love me
with your eyes
Say that you love me
Let go of your disguise
Say it once
Say it again
I’m broken love only you mend
Say it slow
Say it again
I’m broken love only you mend
Say it once
Say it again
I’m broken love only you mend
Say it slow
Say it again

“Say It” is the most vulnerable song the artist has ever created. He first played it for his wife, Tacey, on their wedding day. The song explores the idea that real, deep love is not about fixing one another but about finding someone who truly sees, understands, and stands beside them. A key lyric, “I’m broken love, only you mend,” encapsulates the song’s essence in its simplest form. It took seven years to perfect, during which the artist grew—not only as a musician but in his understanding of love, commitment, and the quiet strength of having a partner who truly understands him.

Love Perfect – X-Shai
“Ωραία φωνητικά που μας παρασύρουν μαζί τους και με το πάθος τους ανεβάζουν την αδρεναλίνη μας. Η ευχάριστη μελωδία μας βγάζει προς τα έξω τα καλά μας συναισθήματα και νιώθουμε την αγάπη να μας πλημυρίζει. Ο ζωντανός ρυθμός κάνει τα σώματά μας να λικνίζονται ανέμελα και η αισιοδοξία βρίσκει ξανά θέση μέσα μας.”
