Obsolete is the new release, a soaring rock soundscape both cinematic and organic in equal parts, with softly enchanting vocals relaying complex thoughts that connect on a profound level.
Electronic Rock
Following the rightful success of her debut single Wake Up Call, the unmistakable songwriting and vocal depth of Mary Ann returns – this time elevated amidst a crisp electronic rock soundscape and a fresh poetic expression of longing.
An intoxicating exploration of infatuation, enchanting both by sonic design and lyrical delivery, rising creative act A Million Little Fires blend alternative pop and heavier rock with precision and power, for the addictive new single Delusion.
The concept is both simple and complex, not unchartered territory in song or reality anymore, but this realism and fear ties in with freshly posed questions like ‘What does it mean to be free in a world controlled by algorithms?’
Means of Control is superb, a brilliant listen, enjoyable at first and later thought provoking, with some new quality or idea pouring through with greater poignancy on each revisit. Nobody else quite brings together genres in such a likable way, and especially not with so much concept and consciousness intertwined.
Indie rock energy brings emotive melodies, distortion, changes in pace and an overall anthemic power, as Okami releases the echoing realm and riff-led addictive presence of Trying.
Darkness and distortion meet with haunting melodic threads of softness and calm – Ghost In The Machine cut through the barriers between genres, with the fiercely compelling new release Enemy Of The State.
Inspired by eighties synth-wave whilst musically elevated by the precise juxtaposition of intensity and softness, Terror proves deeply evocative, heavily energizing, and impressively catchy.
Iconic ambient rock pours through with ethereal presence and poetic depth, as BC returns to enchant and connect on a deeply personal level, for You Were Heaven.
Soaring electronic sound-design and haunting vocals unite, as North Carolina duo Waking April offer an immersive and fearlessly left-field cover of a Soundgarden gem.
Hedy Lamarr and Alan Turing had a phenomenal impact on today’s society, with the former being considered the creator of Wifi and Bluetooth, and the latter deciphering the Enigma code to essentially free Europe from Nazi rule (as well as gifting us the now infamous AI).
Familiar but fresh, uniquely produced from both rhythm to vocal mixing – Anjalts creates a haunting ambiance and uplifting core, with Heaven Has Another Door.
