Fantastic song-writing, fresh & engaging, easily memorable. Hopefully this is a strong indication of what we can look forward to from Jon Omen as the months & years go by.
Eighties
Setting the mood from the outset with a sort of dreamlike, ambient and partly organic introduction, Hamed Ansari creates a perfectly intentional bit of artistry with this latest single.
A masterful artist – one whom we’re lucky to have gracing our indie world & indeed our generation. Highly recommended.
While Kid Apollo undoubtedly has a style that appeals and is genuinely immersive and likeable, it’s also incredibly unpredictable – these are artistic audio experiences, designed to focus on certain feelings in a wholly hypnotic, provocative fashion.
Hypnotic riff work & lightly doubled vocals loaded with seductive depth guide us through a deeply poetic, intriguing opening track as Head Fake’s new EP hits the scene.
Mirror tells a deeply personal story, that of remembering standing before a mirror in his younger days, reflecting upon his reflection; and the perspective of the self in comparison to that of others.
A pristinely produced, rather immaculate journey through electronic composition and human thought, and it works brilliantly to enhance your mood and energy when listened to at volume.
Munatix strike as the sort of thoughtful songwriters that connect for their humanity & honesty. They also impress with their musical creativity & production skills, offering an arrangement that can easily be enjoyed with or without a comprehension of the lyrics.
Leading with emotive songwriting and a subtle eighties influence throughout, Land’s new EP Down By This River effectively introduces a band with a uniquely expressive lyrical and vocal backbone.
Industrial rhythms and hypnotic loops create a heavily eighties-influenced, dramatic yet energizing vibe for this fresh single from Washington’s Aspect Ratio.
RianMusic’s songwriting stands tall within just about every song on this project. His range of influences is decidedly broad, from hints of hip hop to seventies driving rock-ballads and a whole lot of folk-pop and big-band artists along the way.
Initially reminiscent of M83, an eighties aura soon emerges, blending warm synths with an overall comforting audio wash that softens every edge yet embraces the listener in an energizing, uplifting fashion.
