This year’s return from Violet Temples brings a dreamlike, colourful EP of delicate composition.
Electro Pop
One of the best & most unique indie albums to hit the scene this year – Christopher Dallman’s Digital Blue gets an energising make-over, shining light on a whole new aspect of his music.
Welcoming layers of organic guitar alongside thoughtful, stylish electronic elements, and a voice that feels aptly inspired by the sounds of a simpler time, the release aims high & hits the mark.
Designed to be an artistic recreation of a scooter accident in which Cam Rostami broke his arm & his face, You Got It proves to be an energizing, addictively rhythmic & engaging alternative anthem.
“The name Toxsick comes from my auto immune disease. I have a condition where my body produces too much histamine and I have swelling spells if I don’t take my medication.”
A masterful artist – one whom we’re lucky to have gracing our indie world & indeed our generation. Highly recommended.
Featuring immediately likable production, stylishly uniting the dreamy reverb-soaked sound of shoegaze with a somewhat industrial rhythm & electro-pop fuzz.
As the soundscape envelops listeners, surrounding them with heavy bass-work & multiple layers yet still plenty of cleverly incorporated space, the voice pours through as a clear guiding light.
The whole thing has an addictively passionate core to it, and this is what makes the single such a dream to turn up loud & let go amidst.
Beautifully done, addictive with its dance-pop brightness & seductive, interesting melody. Perhaps the most unique yet still impressive alt-pop single to emerge this side of 2020.
Featuring a soundscape as hypnotic & colorful as the artwork, Prime Daniel’s How Will I Know kicks into gear with likable, softly funk-kissed production, and a snippet of an infamous dance classic from yesteryear.
Driving with a brilliantly free creative reach, Isaiah Mclaughlin’s second EP Revolution kicks into gear with an appropriate fusion of industrial rhythms and a notably contemporary vocal-tone and production finish.
