Virginia’s Capital 4 craft a sound and style of their own with this release – a song that increasingly fuses genres and bends expectation in a refreshing way.
Fantastic song-writing, firstly – an unusually mellow hook with an addictive descending progression to it, resolving in a fresh way from the upfront clarity and ache of the verses. This one has the chemistry just right.

Featuring immersive, tumbling drums, an eighties-esque rhythm but a passionately soulful vocal lead – Vyblektro fuses genres in a creatively uninhibited way for this latest single.
Stunning vocals from Dorsten make for a beautiful addition to the raw and gritty style and sound of an unmistakable 3mind Blight. Superb production finishes the process off faultlessly.
“I write about a lot of emotional distress, struggles with depression, anxiety, tough subjects in general. But it really helps to take these dark subjects and sing about them in a way that’s humorous—sometimes sardonic would be a better word.”
Heavily ambient, distorted yet smooth, emotive yet on point for the contemporary scene – Systovis pours his heart in this new release, and drives with a retro-electronic creative edge in the same instance.
Atlanta artist and song-writer ALX proves unexpectedly impressive as this deeply soulful, contemporary and creative new single pours onto the scene.
Featuring a string-led ambiance and fragments of cinematic detail to really set the scene, artist and songwriter NT tells a story of personal turmoil in an open and wholly immersive way.
