Isaih Keez ft Givenchy Bandz – Face It
“Lyrics and magnificent work with seven-wrapping are the main attraction of this HIP-HOP track. Moderately dynamic, atmospheric, thoughtful and very saturated in terms of arrangement. It’s nice to listen to the vocals, very warm timbre vibrations. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

Aroly Tariq – Light Shines Down
“Almost extraterrestrial vocals -aroly tariq-, which is like alien crystals scattered at your feet. Her voice causes interesting associations with vocals -björk-. It is saturated with exactly the same timbral intonations and immerses in his atmosphere with his head. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”
“Практически внеземной вокал -Aroly Tariq-, который словно инопланетные Кристалы рассыпается у ваших ног. Её голос вызывает интересные ассоциации с вокалом -Björk-. Он насыщен точно такими же тембральными интонациями и погружает в свою атмосферу с головой.”

Plaster Cast – Control
“The new release from “Plaster Cast” is a hypnotic call into Synthwave and Indie. The vocal duet will steal your impression and create a relaxed, cozy atmosphere. Concentrate on this smooth sound and discover its value in less than three minutes!”

Next week Plaster Cast is announcing their new EP Control, which is set for an August 12th release. It follows the release of Performance in 2016 on Zoom Lens, which made its way to the likes of Gorilla Vs Bear, The Fader, Vice and more.
The new EP expands the sound, becoming both a version of timeless pop for lone bedroom sessions or anthemic festival choruses, akin to peers like Chromatics, girl in red, and Yumi Zouma. An intersection of warmth and isolation conveys Plaster Cast’s desire to acknowledge their own literal and symbolic closeness and distance, each member shaped by their own reality and locations (LA, NYC, Pacific Northwest, Midwest) and bringing it to a common forefront.
They are releasing the title track “Control” next Tuesday — a real Balearic meets bedroom juxtaposition — complete with a fitting video to go along with it.

Today, multi-platinum-selling singer-songwriter Calum Scott shares his new single “Boys in the Street,” an intimate and deeply empathetic cover of a 2015 track from Scottish artist Greg Holden. Accompanied by a poignant black-and-white video, “Boys in the Street” will appear on Calum’s highly anticipated sophomore album Bridges, to be released on 17 June. Go HERE https://calumscott.lnk.to/BITS to listen to “Boys in the Street,” and check out the video from 5pm BST HERE.

A devastating but ultimately life-affirming account of a father’s struggle to accept his openly gay son, “Boys in the Street” centers on a particularly impassioned vocal performance from Calum (an exquisite song interpreter whose platinum-certified take on Robyn’s “Dancing On My Own” earned him a 2017 Brit Award nomination). In a departure from the acoustic-guitar-driven sound of the original track, Calum’s rendition arrives as an elegant piano ballad graced with lush string work, gradually taking on a tearful intensity as he narrates the father’s journey toward understanding. Directed by Jackson Ducasse (Ellie Goulding, James Bay), the stark yet stunning video for “Boys in the Street” breathes new life into that storytelling, following Calum through empty city streets as he sings directly to the camera and fully embodies the song’s outpouring of emotion.
“‘Boys in the Street’ is one of the few songs that has made me cry on the first listen,” says Calum. “I connected to the original version instantly and had wanted to record my own interpretation for the last few years. When I’d finished my second album, I had the time to craft my own version, and immediately got in touch with Greg to ask for his blessing. I knew it would fit perfectly on Bridges, and in some ways was the song I was missing. I’m honoured to include this powerful and inspiring piece on my sophomore record — I know it’s a song that not only I can relate to but will resonate with others around the world.”
The follow-up to Calum’s 2018 full-length debut Only Human — a widely acclaimed effort that hit No. 1 on the iTunes album chart in 21 countries across the globe, in addition to selling more than 3.6 million in adjusted album sales and garnering over 7.5 billion combined streams — Bridges will also feature his previously released singles “Heaven” (a breathtaking tribute to living in the moment by surrendering to love), “If You Ever Change Your Mind” (a bittersweet but empowered piece produced by Greg Kurstin, an eight-time GRAMMY Award® winner known for his work with Paul McCartney, Elton John, and Adele), “Rise” (a wildly soaring track whose video features a captivating performance from British actor Georgia Hirst), and “Biblical” (a heart-on-sleeve ballad Calum later followed with an American Sign Language version made in collaboration with the Tony Award®-winning Deaf West Theatre). Fans can pre-order the album HERE.
Soon after the release of Bridges, Calum will embark on a world tour with 25 dates scheduled for North America and dates across the UK, Europe, Australia, and South Africa. See below for UK dates and find ticketing info at https://www.calumscott.com/.

Bren Holmes – No Return
“The arrangement and melody are simple, but so hard that they echoed a sonorous echo inside you for a very long time. Nadly, hoarse vocal, rhythm and Alt Country’s melody and the general atmosphere of something important. A thoughtful track that asks more questions than answers them. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”
“Аранжировка и мелодия простые, но настолько сильно цепляют, что звонким эхом резонируют внутри вас ещё очень продолжительное время. Надрывистый, хрипловатый вокал, ритм и мелодия Alt Country и общая атмосфера нечто важного. Вдумчивый трек, который задаёт больше вопросов, чем отвечает на них.”

About three months ago I had a dream, I was in a band playing Jack White’s guitar, which sounded like a bass, Charlie Watts was playing drums, Earl King was singing, there was a horn section and the Raelettes were doing the backing vocals. To one side were Lennon and McCartney shouting and clapping. It was a call and response song, between the singer and the riff, and the horns and the Raelettes jumped in in the chorus. When I woke up the song was still vivid in my memories.

Just in time for summer, pop duo the Lockyer Boys are back with a brand new single and video ‘LATKD’ out today on all digital streaming platforms. Watch video here.
https://youtu.be/IOm7mBPCpr8
Written virtually during the COVID pandemic with Grammy-nominated producer Jeff Dawson and Alan Poettcker from These Kids Wear Crowns, ‘LATKD’ is a catchy and uplifting pop gem about being present and living in the moment, and trying to experience genuine happiness.
“Will and I try to make people happy with our music,” says Charlie Lockyer. “Teenagers and maybe even young adults are often ‘happy being sad’. Why can’t we be happy being happy? That’s the message of ‘LATKD.’”
Lockyer Boys (Will and Charlie Lockyer) are brothers born and raised in Thunder Bay, Ontario. The duo made their first steps as a cover band, quickly gaining recognition for great harmonies and multi-instrumental talent.
Entertaining crowds with stage presence far beyond their years made them an immediate showstopper as the opening act at many festivals and concerts. They have played alongside countless accomplished artists such as Juno-Award winning Eagle & Hawk, Coney Hatch, Chase The Bear, and more.
Lockyer Boys are currently completing their debut album, which features their poignant songwriting and songs co-written with Jeff Dawson, Shawn Hook, Scott Helman, Daniel Powter, Brian Howes, Alan Poettcker, and Akylla.
‘LATKD’ is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services worldwide. For more info, please visit https://www.lockyerboys.com/
