This album manages to be conceptually heavy at the same time as being delightfully carefree. In a nutshell, it encapsulates a mindset that we could all use a little help adopting in times like these.

In recent years there have been only a handful of artists who’ve written in this sort of dramatic, passionate acoustic fashion. For the most part, it’s a style of music reserved for powerful & important storytelling.
Dustin Chapman’s voice bursts through the acoustic set-up with absolute emotion and soul, proving an immediately appealing highlight of his sound, and effectively drawing you in closer for a better listen.
Instead of only seeing the struggle in life, the burned bridges and mistakes, you can start to see things as part of the process, as just one part of a bigger picture. The song represents this concepts beautifully.
The creatively uninhibited, hard-rock act Merrin return this summer with a brilliant fusion of versatility, superb musicianship, and engaging songwriting.
Champion strikes with impact and somehow, despite an entire catalogue of unpredictable, creatively uninhibited tracks, further instills the faith in D.Tech as a vastly versatile, incomparable hip hop artist.
If you haven’t listened to Anechoic Birds before, but you’re a fan of musicianship and rap united – hip hop with a notably melody and mood-conscious aura – Blessed is fine choice to make.
Following a string of indie album releases that have essentially re-worked the same song ten times over, Matteu$$’ project Slum! is a refreshingly eclectic playlist, which introduces a versatile, thoughtful and skilful hip hop artist with an unstoppable drive to succeed.
Ambient chill for the deep thinkers & summer-sun dwellers, Dj Kazo’s Lost is a blissfully calming, hypnotic groove of a track.
The UK’s own Benjamin Andrews takes on the weight of the world with a beautifully emotive, immersive and uplifting new single.
“I’m totally fascinated by the groundbreaking influence of Analog Synthesizers and how that completely changed the music scene and listening habits of people.”
A chaotically whirling Western tune, designed to get those knees up and the whole crowd dancing – lost entirely in the raw energy of the performance – Been Bad For Me is a uniquely impressive blend of country-rock and blues that’s quick to leave its mark.
