Alma Cook – Bobby | Official Music Video (Video)
“”Bobby” is a song full of romance and spring spirit. This is felt in every note, in its warm and slightly naive lyrics. Mix based on Neo-Soul, with reflection on the artist’s senses. Bringing love and tenderness in a way that we unwittingly want to become a part of it here and now!”
“Так и веет романтикой и весной, это чувствуется в каждой нотке, в тёплом и немного наивном тексте. Neo-Soul, который является основой трека, максимально близко отразил все чувства автора. В них вложено так много любви и нежности, что невольно самому хочется влюбиться здесь и сейчас!”

“He’s swinging for the fences; // He likes that I can sing, and I like that he’s from Texas.”
Once upon a time in the land of online dating, there was “Bobby”—the suitor who looks good on paper but isn’t quite the right fit.
This is the story of an amazing first date that helped me see what I really want in a partner: a little less suave, a little more selfless. Besides the suitor’s name, every detail is true to reality, including the plot twist at the end.
Produced by Chris Thigpen (Meghan Trainor, Isley Brothers, RZA).

Zenon Marko – Descent 2 (Video)
“The well-known “Zenon Marko” is here with the second part of his unique “Descent”. Rich electronic soundscapes, traveled us in another dimension. Pads and soothing melodies, which are able to heal every wounded soul. Discover the perfect sound harmony via this proffesional creation!”
-Nagamag.com
“Descent 2” is the penultimate composition on the symmetrical album “Symmetry”…The most melancholy music on the album, expressing the sense of loss, in the inevitable return from the heights and perfection of that elevation. This track was recently featured on the influential “Hearts of Space” radio show.
Symmetry is the musically symmetrical soundtrack of a journey, whether physical, intellectual, imaginative, emotional, philosophical, psychological, or spiritual. The music expresses progressive ascent towards a goal, arrival at an apex, descent, and return.
The structure of the composition reflects and embodies philosophy, mathematics, sacred geometry, harmony and dissonance, and psychoacoustics. This electronic arrangement of the composition is inspired by early, baroque, classical and neoclassical music, as well as electronic music and minimalism. The entire album is musically symmetrical, with the “Descents” as compositional reverses of the “Ascents”.

clear eyes – everything i’m missing (ft. Marian Hill) (Video)
“Full of creativity Chillstep creation, just out from “Clear eyes”. We really enjoyed the synth sound layering, in a low bpm mix with remarkable clarity. Also the soft voice of Marian raises the overall production level even higher.”
-Nagamag.com
clear eyes is the passion project of of producer Jeremy Lloyd, the non-vocal half of Marian Hill. Delving deeper into electronic layering and palettes, the clear eyes project is a way for Lloyd to tap into a different mood, making music with beauty as its first priority and conjuring feelings of serenity and peace.
Still in recovery from a traumatic injury to both his wrists that rendered him unable to make music for 4 months, Jeremy is positively overflowing with creativity and has executive produced 3 albums that will all release this year (Marian Hill, Reo Cragun, and Clear eyes). “everything i’m missing” features the always-crystalline vocal stylings of his Marian Hill partner, Samantha Gongol. The first adjective that comes to mind with this track is “breezy”. From the sampled acoustic guitar plucks to Samantha’s vocals, there’s an unassuming swagger that is only compounded by simple beats that know exactly what their duty is.
As Lloyd puts it, “As a producer, you always have so many ideas that never make it to a release.” clear eyes is his opportunity to finally bring those sounds to our ears.
With all these song ideas now taking fruition, clear eyes is releasing an album that is filled to the brim with features. Feeling for Two includes features from a diverse array of artists — Fifth Harmony’s Lauren Jauregui, T.H.E.Y.’s Drew Love, indie-pop duo Slenderbodies, Bay-area rapper Rexx Life Raj, pop crooner Ayelle, frequent Flume-collaborator Reo Cragun, Lorem-favorite Nolie, electronic producers Tennyson and Lophiile, up and coming songwriter Roísin Marie, and of course, longtime collaborator Samantha Gongol of Marian Hill.
“I love the idea that I can have a session with any artist, from any genre, and come away with a song that feels like them and also feels like me. It’s about the balance of creating a unique sonic world where there’s still room for everyone. ”

Libertad (Main Theme) | Far Cry 6 (Original Game Soundtrack) | Pedro Bromfman (Video)
“Whether you’re a fan of Cinematic music or not, some productions can prove quite impressive. “Libertad” is surely one of them. Exceptionally built electronic track, with plenty of synth layers that form an addictive atmosphere from where we couldn’t escape!”
-Nagamag.com
For the new entry in the long-running Far Cry series, Brazilian composer Pedro Bromfman— known for his work on Narcos and Robocop — creates music that is drenched in lush soundscapes, driving percussion, processed organic instruments and a ton of synthesizers. The game takes place in the Caribbean island of Yara, and the music reflects its surroundings with roots in traditional Latin American and Caribbean music, while being completely free to experiment with contemporary sounds, elements and techniques.
Today “Libertad”, marked by a layered build of guitars and thick atmosphere, makes its way into the world as well. A theme Bromfman created for Yara’s revolution, it’s part of a greater body of work marked by expanding synths wrapped around dark-cloaked strings with a distinct pulse.
“We needed a powerful melody, full of beauty and longing like the island itself, that could also encompass the grit, darkness and pain of a bloody war,” he describes. “With heavy percussion and electric guitar, it quickly builds and explodes into an anthem for Yara’s, young and old, fighting for their freedom.”
Bromfman’s score for Far Cry 6 has a clear artistic vision, with distinctive, haunting melodies and character themes, fully immersing the listener. He calls it “a journey full of beauty, violence, adrenaline and passion,” and it’s hard to disagree with those descriptions once the entirety of the score is taken in.
The Far Cry 6 (Original Game Soundtrack) is out today, with the expanded Far Cry 6: Complete Music (Original Game Soundtrack) out 10/21 via Ubisoft Music.
