The brand new EP blossoms into life with a beautifully appropriate, audio & conceptual boost, which looks regrettably on the present but hopefully towards the future.

SC’s brand new release Shock Combat HD emerges as the deluxe version of the album, complete with 21 original tracks and mixes, each once a further testament to the style and skill of the artist.
Producer and artist Brent Walker, founder of the solo project Fearless Union, has created a conceptual EP fit to accompany the deepest needs for escapism and contemplation alike.
This feels like a slept-on classic from a simpler time, and still the concept focuses on something that much of modern music refuses to even attempt.
Big-band vibes and uplifting Gospel choirs aplenty kick off this Faith-focused compilation album from California’s Elmark Music Label.
The realness, the emotion and integrity, the depth and the detail, is everything most of us tend to crave when seeking out escapism, new podcasts, or simply something unequivocally human.
Switching up his flow on three different occasions throughout, riding the simple repetition of the soundscape with style and purity, A.K.A. THE TRUTH is an artist with a boldly appropriate name.
Fresh from the brand new album, blissful piano work meets with classic nineties synth and vocal layers, and the whole thing is brought to life by the unmistakable confidence and energy of Georgia’s POPMFS.
Contrast kicks in with fierce power as the drop to an unexpectedly creative and heavy beat fires up a whole new section of the track.
The mellow swagger of that guitar part loops around the listener in a calming manner, and the satisfying resolve of being a Happy Mess leaves a powerful feeling that everything will be alright. What more could you ask for?
Not only is the soundscape uniquely original, balancing that classic bounce with a live-sound that would undoubtedly translate awesomely to the stage, but Johnny JC showcases himself as a quickly likable, faultless performer & lyricist.
From the complexities of love to contemplation of life itself, this album underlines the meandering existence of a soulful, expressive artist.
