The dynamic instrumental cinematic funk/soul duo, Hot Mustard, is proud to announce the release of their debut album, Mother Sauce, on Eddie Robert’s (New Mastersounds) Color Red label. Drawing influence from mid/late 1960’s and early 1970’s funk and soul, the building blocks of first generation boom bap hip-hop, multimedia artist and guitarist/producer Jack Powell and bassist Nick Carusos successfully work their own distinctive flavors into classic recipes with Mother Sauce. Simply put, Hot Mustard is as retro as it is radical, and the end result is nothing short of intensely addictive. Track by track, the debut album offers an unpretentious, yet decadent menu of sonic flavors, effortlessly weaving chopped dry-aged drum arrangements with buttery bass lines, twang infused funk guitar licks and 70’s synth-inspired string nostalgia, all while retaining the time-honored, refined sense of taste that made labels like Stax and Atlantic Records household names. Fueling the record throughout is Big Brass Beats, the all brass horn section out of Brooklyn, NY, featuring horn parts written and arranged by Grammy-nominated trumpeter Jordan Mclean (Antibalas) with Dave “Smoota” Smith (TV On The Radio) holding down the trombone.

“The collaboration with Jordan and Dave ended up being an essential part of the album. When two different worlds collide, sometimes it can be messy, but other times it works in unique and interesting ways. With this record, it felt like we had created something strange and special, while keeping it fun and refreshing,” explains Powell.

On August 20th, Hot Mustard’s second single, “Window Seat,” will drop on all streaming platforms. Accompanying the single is the animated video, a delightfully odd tale created by Jack Powell who goes under the artist moniker of Opus Thimble. HM’s unique musical vision becomes consummate with the addition of Powell’s Monty Pythonesque visual animations. “The video, to me, is basically ‘a day in the life of a creative introvert’. It’s one of the days in which you get the win, so to speak. I try not to indulge much of what the video means to me personally because I think that it’s important to give the viewer an opportunity to apply it to their own life in the way they feel it.” says Powell.

Accomplishing timelessness in any art medium is always the gold standard, and with Window Seat, both sonically and visually, Hot Mustard has accomplished this and more.

Introducing Tel Aviv’s hottest new act: KAYMA. Fronted by the commercially successful multi-instrumentalist/producer Ori Toledano (known for writing and producing music for some of the world’s largest brands under the pseudonym Snowstar.Company), KAYMA is an edgy pop project with an irresistibly catchy Top 40 feel.

His debut single “Onsitelover” (premiered via Northern Transmissions) explores our relationship with the digital world through the story of a couple, bonded by a fatal attraction, and the new live music video offers a gorgeous stripped back version of the pop song. Filmed in the historic Immanuel Church in Tel Aviv, Toledano is joined by a choir for a stunning live rendition. Rich with exquisite harmonies, this Hozier-esque stomp-and-clap banger combines pop with gospel for an unexpected twist.

KAYMA shares: “The song is basically an affair we’re having with the online world in the form of seduction. The video encapsulates the interaction we’re having with it through the relations of a couple that experience the distraction, engagement and the disorientation after the act.”

Featuring delicious pop hooks and ear candy melodies, “Onsitelover” is a tightly packaged commercial bop with a driving force. With the catchiness of a Charlie Puth banger and the sensuality of a soulful Hozier hit, KAYMA’s debut single is sure to make a splash globally.

“Onsitelover” is the first single from the EP Mid Side Notes due to be released in Fall 2021.

Musicians, singer-songwriters, and husband and wife, Rachael and Luke Price, are bringing back the feel-good vibes of classic Americana. On Love, DEAN’s self-titled debut, they’ve handcrafted a musical mosaic from vintage soul, Motown, old-time music, gospel, folk, and neo-soul. The self-titled album is themed around love and community, and coming of age milestones. It’s vibrant, personal, and it’s for everyone.

“This album is a love letter from us to anyone who listens. We’re hoping the listener feels let into our lives; that they can see value in music; value in people; and that they feel inspired to grow in their own lives and relationships. We leave space for grief, hardship and honesty but our target is encouragement and positivity in the midst of struggles,” Rachael says.

Rachael and Luke first met as Berklee College of Music students on the very first day of school. Rachael’s artistic perspective encompasses soul, gospel, and Americana. Luke is an accomplished fiddler steeped in old-time music, bluegrass, swing, and honky-tonk. From these varied backgrounds, the twosome nurtured a soul-pop aesthetic. “We want to connect with people, but we also like to keep things musically interesting. For example, there may be a section in 7, or a strange horn line or a complex drum fill or passage, but we never like these touches to take away from the song” Luke says. “We strive for something that feels familiar but has unexpected twists.”

The band began simply as DEAN! while Luke and Rachael were in college. They felt keen on the trusty and traditional overtones of the name. The couple also each had a beloved family member named Dean, and when they rebooted the project in Portland, Oregon, they modified the handle to Love, DEAN. A perfect addition that showcases the warmth within the group.

Love, DEAN is part of a creative community of musicians who drift in and out of each other’s projects and also come together to teach at music camps. “Our music comes from our experience and from the influence of our musical community which stretches across the country, from Boston, New York, Nashville, Los Angeles, and Portland,” Rachael says.

The warmly inviting single, Put A Record On, grooves with a Beatles-esque soulfulness. The track features Luke’s Pop Staples-like R&B guitar filigree, Rachael’s slow-burn vocals, dreamy organ playing, trippy atmospherics, and a deconstructed pocket drums and bass groove. Its lyrics are evocative and inclusive—lovingly snapshotting how music can be a sanctuary away from the onslaught of day-to-day living. Rachael sings: Finally by ourselves we shut the door/Every step creaks slowly cross this floor/Anticipation telling us it’s time /Hold me tight as Ray sings “Georgia On My Mind.” “We love listening to records together and with friends, and we wanted to celebrate all the beauty of those moments, tangible and intangible,” Rachael says.

It’s a last stand in a relationship. It’s asking the person you love not to give up on you, & we hope we brought that nostalgic pinch. That remember the good times feels.

Musical & visual artist Will the Wolf hails from the twin island nation Trinidad & Tobago in the Caribbean. A leader of sorts in their growing community of excellent alternative artists, Will said in a recent interview, “I’m hoping to do my part to bring greater exposure to our talented country & it’s alternative music scene. My music is mostly about love. I have a specific goal in mind and love is the only thing that’s given me the courage to share my work. It’s been a harrowing time & all support is greatly appreciated.” He went on to explain that his greatest influences are Frank Ocean, Keaton Henson, Tyler, the Creator, Bon Iver, Mac Demarco, David Rudder, Band of Horse etc.

Lose yourself in the resonance of composer-pianist Martin Graff’s Trips for Piano: eight evocative piano pieces made to move the soul and light the imagination. Graff’s affecting harmonies, soaring melodies, pensive compositional style, and impassioned playing conjure the most beautiful colors from keys of black and white. The final track, “Sonare,” is an increasingly virtuosic celebration of the full expressive range of the piano, a dramatic crescendo of enveloping sonority…

Daniel Dávila is a Puerto Rican singer, songwriter & producer. He has sung and worked on records for artists like Kanye West and Robert Glasper. His own music embodies his Puerto Rican culture, incorporating only instruments that he has taken back with him from the island. His sound and style fuse meditative latin instrumentation and arrangements with a smooth soul tone.

This song has nothing to do with aesthetics, being attractive, is in my opinion the least interesting thing about a person BUT feeling confident, comfortable and empowered in your body is important, to me that is true beauty.

It would be nice to feel great about yourself every day but life can, at times, have a tendency to make you feel small and inadequate. It’s especially easy now with the addition of social media, comparing your body and life to the bodies and lives of “perfect” people online can be soul crushing. It can leave you feeling like all that you are isn’t enough.

That’s when you need someone to lift you up. You need kind words when you’re unable to speak them to yourself, you need reassurance when you’re feeling discouraged. You need a reminder that you’re a bad ass and that you should never shrink to make others comfortable, because you’re not “too much” you’re just enough.
