“Float On By” Quote: “Float On By is a rumination on the unavoidable paradoxes of life and the anxiety of worrying about these things we can’t control. It’s the idea that ambition is ego. The moment you stop trying, you finally get what you need. So you might as well float in the river of life” – Adam Hoffman of The Shadowboxers

ALBUM QUOTE: “We’ve spent a decade in search of our identity, meandering our way through different styles and genres in hopes of landing on something that all three of us can see ourselves in. This is the album where we found it. We locked ourselves in the studio and didn’t come out until all three of us felt like we’d communicated our visions and seen them through. Just us. No one else. No one to hide behind or pass the ball to. We fought, we compromised, we faced issues that had been building up for a decade. And we came out on the other side with The Slow March of Time Flies By, our most honest work to date.” – Scott Tyler of The Shadowboxers

Today, alternative singer, songwriter and producer BabyJake recruits British singer/songwriter Bipolar Sunshine for his new summer-ready single “Funny Thing About Love” out now—listen HERE.

On “Funny Thing About Love,” bass thumps through handclaps as the funky track trails into a head-nodding groove with BabyJake’s and Bipolar Sunshine’s hypnotic vocals bouncing off one another.

BabyJake says, “The inspiration behind creating this record was definitely motivated by Anderson .Paak and Mac Miller (RIP). Both of those guys really understand modern mid-tempo dance music and that funky middle ground that lays in between. I always wanted to make a track that had that type of bounce to it, and there was no one better to do it with than Bipolar Sunshine. With both of us going back and forth with each other throughout the entirety of the track, it never gets boring. It feels like a constant party and no better way to kick summer off. As for the meaning of the track, it’s really about falling in and out of love, how quickly those transitions can be and how closely they are related to each other.”

Bipolar Sunshine chimes in saying, “Easily one the smoothest records I’ve been a part of, this just has summer good time feels written all over it.”

“Funny Thing About Love” follows BabyJake’s latest single “Do I Fit In Your Shoes?,” which was written and co-produced by the singer/songwriter and accompanied by a cinematic visual directed by duo Reggie. (Dillon Francis, Meghan Trainor, Yung Gravy)—watch HERE https://babyjake.lnk.to/ShoesVideo . Billboard described the song as “genre-defying,” while V Magazine proclaimed, “The slick guitar work and his earnest vocals do their job…selling you on the song hard.” TMRW Magazine ultimately said it best: “Returning with a smooth alt-pop creation is BabyJake, the 6’6” boundary-breaking artist you need on your radar.”

Last year, BabyJake released his debut EP Don’t give me problems, give me wine to praise from critics and fans alike. The seven-song genre-blurring EP features his single “Head In The Clouds” and was praised by Notion, The Line Of Best Fit, Ones To Watch, This Song Is Sick, Lyrical Lemonade and more. Wonderland stated, “Few artists are able to bounce so seamlessly from genre to genre than BabyJake,” while Flaunt proclaimed, “BabyJake is on his way to superstardom.” Earlier this year, BabyJake teamed up with Louis The Child on “Somewhere Else.”

ABOUT BABYJAKE

Jake Herring, aka BabyJake, first picked up the guitar when he was eight years old. Growing up in Fort Myers FL, he constantly juggled his deep love of classic rock and guitars with an enthusiasm for sports and partying with his friends. For solace, Herring often turned to his dad’s folk records, favoring the low-key contemplative sounds that resonated with the sense of alienation that he was feeling. Though he maybe wasn’t conscious of it at the time, Herring was priming himself to be a sort of musical chameleon. Well versed in the building blocks of rock music, the intimacy of folk, and with an innate understanding of the rap and pop music he grew up around, he was constructing a well of disparate influences to draw from when he eventually made a serious go at a music career. After his freshman year of college, Herring dropped out and started writing songs as often as he could. Debuting as BabyJake in 2019, his single “Cigarettes on Patios,” topped global viral charts and has accumulated over 100 million streams to date. Despite the global pandemic changing original plans for 2020, BabyJake kept the momentum going with a seven-song debut EP, Don’t give me problems, give me wine, which Lyrical Lemonade acclaimed “an exceptional project.” On the heels of its success, BabyJake follows it up with his new singles “Do I Fit In Your Shoes?” and “Funny Thing About Love,” as he sets the stage for much more to come.

Gloria Chloé über den Song: „Erster Lockdown in Österreich. Mein Dad und ich sind zusammen auf dem Balkon gesessen und haben uns bei einem guten Gläschen des hauseigenen Weißweins Gedanken über unsere Zukunft gemacht. Wir wollten der belastenden Zeit – meine Familie besitzt einen Heurigen – positives abgewinnen. Wir haben dann einfach versucht tagzuträumen und haben uns ausgemalt was wir nicht alles machen werden „Wenn das hier vorbei ist“. Für jeden der auch jetzt gerade eine härtere Zeit durchmacht und sich wünscht, dass das dann auch mal vorbei geht.

BIO
In ihrer Teenagerzeit entwickelte sich ihre Liebe zur Musik. Sie hörte Fergie, Pink und Eminem in Dauerschleife, veranstaltete Rap Battles in ihrem Wohnzimmer und tanzte Michael Jacksons Moonwalk. Durch das Auswendiglernen der Eminem-8-Mile-Lyrics lernte sie so nebenbei fließend Englisch. Sie begann ihre Erlebnisse in eigene Songtexte zu gießen. Zuerst auf Englisch, später als sie Sido und Kool Savas für sich entdeckte, nur noch auf Deutsch.

Ihre Persönlichkeit ist eine Mischung aus Pippi Langstrumpf, Pink und Haley Dunphy (Modern Family). Kurz gesagt: Sie ist frech, wild und abenteuerlustig. Schlechte Laune hat sie äußerst selten. Gloria Chloé ist weltoffen. Es packt sie oft die Reiselust. Am liebsten ist sie am Strand mit einer guten Flasche Prosecco in der Hand. Für das Gleichgewicht in ihrem Leben verbringt sie viel Zeit mit ihrer Familie, Freunden oder mit den Hunden draußen in der Natur – das erdet sie.

Gloria Chloés Sound ist modern und fresh. Ihr Deutsch-Pop-Sound nimmt Anleihen an ihren HipHop- und Deutsch-Rap Roots die sie textlich inspirieren. Ihr kleines Songwriter- und Produzenten-Team (Daniel H. Logar – Man vs. Monkey und Lukas Rössler) pusht sie, das zu erzählen was nur sie erzählen kann. „Echte Geschichten in Songs zu verwandeln ist das Schönste, das es gibt. Nichts muss geschönt werden um es auszusprechen. Ich habe nichts zu verheimlichen“, so die 25-jährige.

Gaining massive momentum for his single ‘Moments’ Blaise surprises fans with the acoustic stripped back version of his 2021 release, which premiered exclusively via Wonderland. The tastemaker publication praises the depth of the single: ‘Leaving behind the dance floor-ready Balearic tones on the original, the acoustic version captures the true meaning behind the single, letting us hone in on every powerful lyric and tonal change.’

The acoustic video follows off the back of his floorfiller, ‘Moments’, which has to date earned a wide range of support from Radio 1 by Rickie, Melvin and Charlie, as well as DJ Pioneer and Joel Corry on KISS FM.

Possessing a cantering bassline, Balearic tones and an exceptional drop that climaxes on every hook, the marriage of BLAISE’s production with Poppy Baskcomb’s powerful, soul driven lyrics is one of sheer dancefloor heaven. Reaching into the emotions stirred by the current world situation, the lyrics for ‘Moments’ allows the mind to escape and enjoy the feeling of good vibes and freedom.

BLAISE explains “This song for me is one of my personal favourites to date. The words reflect the moment of the current world situation. With Poppy’s soulful voice, catchy vocals and melody, I’m very excited about this release.”

The British DJ and producer, who relocated to the world’s most elite party destination to take up 2 DJ residency’s last year, is already a major name on the club circuit. Having previously toured the world as a DJ for the home of dance music, Ministry of Sound, he has also featured extensively across radio, including Kiss FM, with his exclusive guest mixes. With a sound that is classic and infectious, his previous productions have released on renowned dance labels including DVINE Sounds, Stashed & Todd Terry’s Inhouse Records and garnered extensive support across Radio 1’s Dance Anthems and the Kiss network. Prior to his current collaboration with 22-year-old Poppy Baskcomb, BLAISE has also teamed up with Alex Mills, Karen Harding & Azello, and is under the management of music mogul & hit record writer Jin Jin (Jax Jones, Jess Glynne, David Guetta)

Adding her incredible musical flair and a powerful dimension to BLAISE’s production on ‘Moments’, singer/songwriter Poppy Baskcomb perfectly twins powerful melodic ideas with inventive lyrical concepts. “This song is about those moments where you stop in the crowd and take in the euphoria around you. Moments I’m sure we all miss currently.” says Poppy about the track, before continuing, “Hopefully you’ll enjoy this song, as much as we enjoyed making it. I’ll see you all soon with a drink in hand and we can dance to this, when clubs reopen.”

Since signing to TaP Music Publishing in 2018, she’s been writing in the UK, Sweden and Norway with recent collaborations including Punctual, Nathan Dawe, Ella Henderson, Mel C, Dimension, Conor Maynard, KALM and Eli Brown.

A track destined for virality and sound systems the world over, BLAISE and Poppy Baskcomb deliver us ‘Moments’ not to be missed.

UK-based hip-hop collective The High Breed make their return to the scene with new single “Forgiveness”, their first release of 2021. The track showcases the collective’s unique hip-hop style, effortlessly blending conscious, relatable lyricism with hypnotic, trap-infused production alongside cinematic visuals that will no doubt captivate the audience. Having gained traction with a string of releases last year, such as “Star Dwellers” and “Meet the Gods”, and receiving support from BBC Introducing, the independent DIY collective are set to continue their momentum with this latest release.

“Forgiveness” starts with an organ-inspired synth that instantly connects you to the song’s biblical theme, with the rolling drums and piercing hi-hats giving the song the punch it needs to deliver its weighty philosophical message. Speaking more on the track, The High Breed say, “‘Forgiveness’ is an honest dialogue about what forgiveness truly means to the individual who has done wrong in a world full of self-denial. It is an expression and an acceptance of the ‘shadow self’, a vulnerable confession about the darker nature of our humanity and a poetic discourse on the morality of the human soul, highlighting the battle between virtue and temptation that no person throughout any age has ever been free from.”

Driving in their own lane, The High Breed are a much-welcomed addition to the conscious hip-hop scene and are clearly a force to be reckoned with both lyrically and visually. And with much more to come this year from the fast-rising collective, The High Breed will surely be an act to watch out for. “Forgiveness” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://lnk.to/TheHighBreedForgiveness

WeLive Festival releases concert film with Matt Woosey Band

https://www.mattwoosey.co.uk/

The German concert film series “WeLive Festival” will release its eighth episode on May 23. A first part of the movie – the video to the song “Let It Flow” – is now released. The protagonist of the approximately 45-minute film is the musician Matt Woosey, who has already been nominated three times for the British Blues Award, with his eight-piece blues/folk formation “Matt Woosey Band.”

“It was a very special opportunity for the Matt Woosey Band to come together during Corona to do something creative and just play together again”, Matt Woosey explained after the filming. Due to the Corona pandemic, the band had not performed together on stage for over a year. Due to sanitation measures to protect against the Corona virus, the filming took place in private and without an audience in front of ten cameras. “Playing without an audience is a strange thing, but the whole team and everyone from Rockwerkstatt Lahr came together to make it a fantastic day,” Woosey thanked the organizers. “Thanks to everyone involved and the guys in the band.”

The WeLive Festival has already been releasing high-quality concert film productions featuring artists from a wide range of genres since May 2020. For example, progressive rock band Dead Venus, classical pianist Pervez Mody, singer-songwriter Dominik Büchele and heavy metal band OIL have already performed in front of the 10 to 15 cameras of the production company punchline studio. In 2020, the concert film series was awarded the German Rock&Pop Prize for the promotion of music culture. Currently, “WeLive” is also nominated for the prestigious nationwide “alternative media award”.

WeLive Festival veröffentlicht Konzertfilm mit Matt Woosey Band

Die deutsche Konzertfilm-Serie “WeLive Festival” veröffentlicht am 23. Mai die achte Episode. Als Trailer veröffentlichte die Serie nun mit dem Song “Let It Flow” einen ersten Ausschnitt aus dem Konzertfilm. Protagonist des rund 45-Minütigen Films ist der bereits dreimal für den British Blues Award nominierte Musiker Matt Woosey mit seiner achtköpfigen Blues/Folk-Formation “Matt Woosey Band”.

“Es war eine ganz besondere Gelegenheit für die Matt Woosey Band, während der Corona-Zeit zusammenzukommen, um etwas Kreatives zu machen und einfach wieder zusammen zu spielen”, erklärte Matt Woosey nach der Aufzeichnung. Wegen der Corona-Pandemie hatte die Band über ein Jahr lang nicht gemeinsam auf der Bühne gestanden. Wegen der Hygienemaßnahmen zum Schutz vor dem Corona-Virus fanden die Dreharbeiten unter Ausschluss der Öffentlichkeit und ohne Publikum statt.

“Ohne Publikum zu spielen ist eine seltsame Sache, aber das ganze Team und alle von der Rockwerkstatt Lahr kamen zusammen, um einen fantastischen Tag zu gestalten”, bedankte sich Woosey bei den Veranstaltern. “Danke an alle Beteiligten und die Jungs in der Band.”

Das WeLive Festival veröffentlicht bereits seit Mai 2020 hochwertige Konzertfilmproduktionen mit Künstlern verschiedenster Genres. So traten bereits die Progressive Rockband Dead Venus, der klassische Pianist Pervez Mody, Singer-Songwriter Dominik Büchele oder die Heavy Metal Band OIL vor den 10 bis 15 Kameras der Produktionsfirma punchline studio auf. Die Konzertfilm-Serie wurde im Jahr 2020 mit dem deutschen Rock&Pop-Preis für die Förderung der Musikkultur ausgezeichnet. Derzeit ist “WeLive” auch für den renommierten bundesweiten “alternativen Medienpreis” nominiert.
