Illeeria recently received her silver 100k award from YouTube, a milestone many can only dream about, and she continues to expand her reach with consistently launched singles of uniquely versatile expression and musicianship. A memorable introduction to an artist who is swiftly proving a force to be reckoned with.
Producer
“I am planning on getting more exposure online and putting more effort into that. I am also planning on playing more live shows and traveling to reach new audiences.”
From organic flute and sax to Afrobeat rhythms, Gospel warmth and unpredictable jazz, Sounds Of Freedom wholeheartedly encapsulates the very implications of its name.
An ever creative and impossible to pigeon-hole Rico Friebe redirects fans immensely, with the euphorically electro-soaked and cinematic fullness of a conceptually provocative Anthems For A Lost Generation.
An industrial whirlwind of sound – cascading synths, melodies, harmonies and a rhythmic robotic stomp of a rhythm – the iconic Isaiah Mclaughlin returns, with the aptly-titled, extensive conceptual album Reincarnation.
“I was selected for the Grammy’s in the producers and engineers wing 5 years ago and that was a huge accomplishment as an indie artist! #blessed”
One for the divine electronic audio fans – producer and artist NAO crafts with an impressive balancing of emotion and professional precision.
Awake is the latest single to emerge, a finely-built soundscape of softly euphoric synths, deep house warmth, and delicate, lighter contrasting vocals.
“I’d describe my music as jazz, but in the widest definition of the word. I’m allowing myself to constantly explore different genres, including ambient music, funk, electronic classical/orchestral and pretty much everything in between. This includes music for film, TV and video games.”
“When it comes to genres, I haven’t quite found where I land in my style, I typically tell people it is indie electronic but I also sing and play guitar and different instruments and blend them all together with a lot of electronic textures and elements.”
“I find great inspiration in sci-fi films, such as Dune, The Creator … along with noir-type movies. Currently disco music is a significant source of inspiration for me. It’s not just the groove and intriguing song structures that delight me. Disco exudes positivity, which is particularly uplifting right now.”
From pop-punk anthems to sultry soul and jazz-pop arrangements – strong hooks and musical diversity remain unbreakable roots of the Sobmusic production approach.
Audio cinema, by all accounts – no dialogue, imaginative fragments of design and melody working in unison with the naturally connecting power of rhythm and movement. Transharmonicon is a brilliantly interesting, original EP, from someone promising a fine balance between musical precision and sheer artistic curiosity.
