Glisz is a newcomer Italian duo born in 2019, characterized by a fusion between electronic and downtempo sounds. After years spent producing for several music projects, the duo makes its official debut with “Bloom EP”. Azhar, Keraal, Organica and Shadows are the four tracks composing the Ep. Common features characterize them such as the ambient sound and the sense of restless energy, transmitted in different ways. The combination of these contrasting details creates a fascinating final result. These tracks will bring you into another dimension, an abstract journey through the essence of music.
Glisz started their musical career in an electronic band which reached the MTV New Generation Artist in 2015.

tongue tied (lyric video) – FJ Law (Video)
“Sometimes we need to talk, explain something important but we feel like tongue tied. That is the situation in FJ Law’s emotional song with plenty of rich sounds and rhythm up and downs!”
-Nagamag.com
FJ Law – the solo project of songwriter and producer Danny Hall – will release his new single ‘tongue tied’ on the 20th January via 225 Records/Believe, the follow up to last year’s ‘friends.’
Merging his singer/songwriter roots with swathes of electronic beats and pulsing synth lines, ‘tongue tied’ further showcases FJ Law’s talent for creating effortless alt-indie tunes.
Speaking about the single, FJ Law says: ”This song is about never finding the right words to say in important situations. Always stumbling over your sentences and never helping the situation. A problem I struggle with a lot. The theme of the song is based around this and a toxic first relationship that I went through when I was 18. There was a temper of my partner’s that was hard to control and often left us in pieces. I knew she wasn’t good for me but it was all I ever knew. There would be occasions when she threw my clothes out the window to the neighbour’s garden or threw my phone against the wall. I knew I couldn’t carry on but I could never bring myself to say the words to end it. I would always back track, get tongue tied and tangle myself further in the web.”
Having had support from BBC Introducing for his single ‘friends,’ FJ Law recently shared a stripped back live version of the track that you can watch here.

FJ Law has worked alongside the likes of Nina Nesbitt and Kwassa, and has already had support from the likes of Phil Taggart, who picked FJ Law’s unreleased track ‘State To State’ for his ‘Chillest Show,’ whilst another unreleased track – ‘Catching 22’ – found its way on the BBC Hotlist after FJ Law had uploaded it to BBC Introducing.

J’Moris – Off the Porch (Video)
“”Of the Porch” meaning not depended on your parents anymore, being out on the streets grinding. Original Rap taste through the artist’s daytime reality. Worth to listen.”
-Nagamag.com
Off the porch.
Enigmatic Hillsboro, TX Hip Hop Artist J’Moris crafts punchy, authentic Southern Rap shaped by sly street smarts and a love for the hustle. His first new music since 2020’s full-length album “Blac February”, “Off the Porch” is a certified jolt of adrenaline and a taste of J’Moris’s realness.
When asked about the meaning of the term, J says “Off the Porch means I’m not dependent on my parents. I’m out of the house and in the streets grinding. Basically, you put in work and didn’t wait for handouts. Since you’re in the streets grinding and putting in work, you’ve “jumped off the porch.”
Ever the hard worker, OTP is the first of a string of new singles Moris recorded during the 2020 pandemic. Moris’s vocals were self-recorded at his home studio, while music/beats are provided by frequent collaborator Supamario Beatz.
“Off the Porch” comes out Friday, August 14th. Watch the brand new music video on J’Moris’s Youtube Channel.
https://facebook.com/JMorisATC/
Like a suave, street-wise prodigy of Master P and Gucci Mane, J’Moris’s style is all killer, dripping with heavyweight swagger and grit.
A self-dubbed ‘product of environment’, J’Moris has been drawn to music since he was a young boy. While battling the trials and tribulations of life, he’s always found music to be an unrivaled outlet of expression. During his college venture at Lamar University, Moris co-founded the organization Tru Misfitz. Continuing to maneuver more into the music industry, Moris found his southern influence played a heavy part in what he does, deeply embedded in his music and persona.
Born in Fort Worth, Texas during the 90’s exposed J’Moris to a lot growing up. The drugs, pimps & thugs flooded the streets.
“My family moved to Hillsboro texas to try and get away, but to no avail. The crack epidemic consumed Hillsboro also. Watching my loved ones fall victim to the drugs or the streets, I felt he only had one choice. Use them both to My advantage & find a way out. My older brother, Crunch, looked out for me alot. He never wanted me in the streets but he also knew the outcome was inevitable. He showed me how to finesse the game more, how to be apart of the game but also be hands off.. Unseen.. The lessons he taught me molded me into who I am today and also gave me the opportunities to graduate high school. Something he, or my little brother J Hodge, never did.”
“I tell God to watch out for me while I chase the route of evil…” (from ‘Extra’)
J’Moris’s no-holds-barred style is inspired by hip hop greats/moguls like Master P (“his grind was great”, says Moris), Gucci Mane, 2 Chainz, T.I., Kevin Gates, Nipsey Hustle & Biggie Smalls.

The Sunshine State – Things Changed (Video)
“Everything changes in this amazing and so immense world in our entire life. Things Changed will make you jittery as you plunge into the narrative. The young and talented singer and musician Skyler Stonestreet won us over. Will conquer you too.”
“Всё меняется в этом удивительном и таком необъятном за всю нашу жизнь мире. Things Changed заставит вас поволноваться, стоит только окунуться в повествование. Молодая и талантливая певица и музыкант Skyler Stonestreet покорила нас. Покорит и вас.”
-Nagamag.com
The Sunshine State, the new project of distinguished songwriter Skyler Stonestreet, is ready to share her next single “Things Changed,” due out next week.

“Things Changed” (written by Skyler, Hayley Gene Penner (Lennon Stella, Charlotte Lawrence), and Nick Monson (Lady Gaga, Selena Gomez)) follows the release of debut single “Cliff Drive” which catapulted The Sunshine State as an artist to watch in the new year. Stonestreet previously released a slew of singles under her own name, garnering praise far and wide from the likes of PAPER, Billboard, Pop Dust, Ones To Watch and more.

In new single “Things Changed,” driving guitars meet shades of twinkling alt-pop and indie rock while radiant vocals take center stage. The Sunshine State delivers a message about naïveté and a blissfully reckless youth. As she reconciles with her past and how things could’ve gone, she counts her lucky stars for the way they turned out.
Skyler shares, “‘Things Changed’ is about where I was in my life and where I could have gone. It’s about who I was with and where they ended up.It’s about the different roads you can take and the ones you choose to leave behind.”
Born in Las Vegas, Skyler moved to Los Angeles shortly after graduating high school to pursue a career in music. However, a breast cancer diagnosis put things on hold for a little while. After successfully battling the disease, Skyler’s experience, determination, and gusto became a clear catalyst for her burgeoning career. “[Breast cancer] doesn’t define me,” Stonestreet shared with Ones To Watch. “But now I want to help other people who are going through it. And I want girls to know that they should feel okay in their own skin.”
The Sunshine State feels like a true representation of Skyler as an artist in her own right. The LA-native creates an altered state full of dreamy landscapes and distorted guitars by diving into her roots of live instruments and ambient vocals. “It’s taken me a long time to figure out exactly what I want to do with my music and I feel like this crazy 2020 has actually helped unlock that (but more it’s because of the help of two of my favorite humans. I feel like I have honestly lived a lot of different lives, some that I have never really looked at, or acknowledged. I think I got too good at pretending they didn’t exist, so I felt like writing about them all.”
Musetta // Atlantide (Video)
“Imagine the mysterious “Atlantide” sinking deeply in the sea through a short colourful dream. A special Electronic music piece by Musetta full of passion and fantasy.”
-Nagamag.com
With their new single “Atlantide” Musetta goes back to their trip-hop roots. Join them in this journey through the ancient ruins of a long lost civilization, Atlantis, guided by Matteo’s deep and dark textures and Marinella’s siren call.

Spawned in the armpit of Milan, Italy, Musetta burst onto the downtempo scene in 2008 with their debut album, “Mice to meet you!”, which combines Marinella Mastrosimone’s haunting lyrics with Matteo Curcio’s evocative atmospheres to generate a solid record chock full of technical masterpieces, inspired by early 20th century arts, film-noir and science fiction – a retro feel with a futuristic edge.
The remixes of ‘Peace and Melody’, soon followed by ‘Red Star’, ‘Nicotine’ and ‘Standing by my Side’, released on over 150 records by Morrison Recordings (Canada) and Armada Records (Holland), climbed the Beatport charts and got the endorsement of Pete Tong, Tiesto, John Digweed, Sasha, Armin van Bureen, Markus Schulz, Paul Oakenfold, Laurent Garnier and David Guetta.
Musetta’s tracks were synched on several TV series, such as “Better Call Saul”, “Elementary”, “House of Lies”, “Star-Crossed” and features (“Enough Said”, “The Past is a Foreign Land”).

Titi Woo – To All Who’s Out There (Video)
“Одно из самых необычных и трогательных произведений, которые нам удалось услышать. Эта песня своеобразный авторский реквием, которая была написана Девидом за несколько месяцев до его кончины. To All Who’s Out There навсегда останется в наших сердцах.”
-Nagamag.com
After releasing his debut album “Pollywogs”
which he wrote and recorded with his twin brother David.
Titi Woo returns with a brand new song – a farewell song
that’s been written by his twin brother – David and was recorded
and musically produced by Ori Shlezinger in Newtone studios.
David knew that he was terminally ill and felt the need to farewell
and say his final words.
This song is dedicated to all the people who exist on planet earth and
therefore comes the name : “To All Who’s Out There”.
Furthermore, he asked from his twin brother Jody that the lyrics
from the first verse of the song would be engraved on his gravestone
and so it was.
The animation for the music video was created by Anastasia Miasnikova
as it brings to life the paintings David created while staying at the hospital
prior to his death.
This is his voice and those are his final words.
Upper Reality – I Can (Video)
“Don’t miss “I Can” from Upper Reality. A light, pleasant song dedicated to the strong feeling of love. Taken out from a very fresh six-track EP in Alternative / Indie R&B style.”
-Nagamag.com
Upper Reality grew up in Frisco, TX. hER life has taken many twists and turns, from getting a Bachelor’s in Economics at UT Austin to spending a year in Cape Town, South Africa, to finally being based in Los Angeles for the past 2 years. Her sound reflects that journey—an sensual electro-soul museum of Dallas neo-soul keys and synths, Cape Town house-jazzy percussion, LA indie grooves and sample flips, and flourishes of inspiration from artists running the gamut from Sade, to the Doors, to Roy Ayers, to Phoelix and more.
She creates from the burnt-out-overachiever perspective, soothing the mind and soul and reminding listeners that others’ validation is not worth destroying yourself over, and you are enough just because you are.
