It can be heartbreaking when an audience doesn’t get what you’re trying to do. Most professionals have to learn to become uncaring to a point to continue performing live as almost all live performances are ‘without a net’, so to speak.

This meeting of personal reality & the cinematic world of horror works well. The soundscape showcases equal parts of each – the screams, the fear, the detail, and the undeniably emotional, dramatic leading voice.
It’s a pleasure to get to embrace these original works. Hopefully many more people continue to discover & connect with them in the near future.
I like to blur the lines between fiction & reality. While I write about personal experiences in some songs, I also draw inspiration from video games, anime, movies, comics, etc. Taking fictional characters, settings & scenarios and mixing them with real life experiences.
Kama Vardi’s entirely captivating songwriting shines with immense brightness. Every line offers something uniquely expressive & thought provoking. Not a moment is wasted.
Louis Antoniou is one of music’s most exciting & hard working artists to emerge this year. His aim over the coming months is to smash out five hard-hitting singles that showcase his abilities & his creative direction under a colourful spotlight.
The instrumentation is brilliant, a live show would fill the room with peaceful energy & flawlessly skinful musicianship – with just a touch of electronic experimentation to keep a certain thread of alternative energy alive.
An incredible song. The subject matter is not something many people will have directly experienced, but the way it’s been presented manages to find you & really connect.
I love the feeling music can bring to an audience no matter who you are or where you’re from. It’s a universal language where you can share emotions, feelings & passions & hopefully affect who is listening.
Showcasing the best in poetic story-telling & musical prowess, this album – originally called “Trump Songs for Leonard Cohen” – gives audiences a relevantly Cohen or Dylan-esque playlist of uplifting darkness & provocative reflections on life.
Brendan McMahon strikes from the heart with this EP. Songs written from the perspective of a traveler, learning the ways of the world, the reality that stands in contrast with what we’re led to believe from afar.
A quick plea to music lovers: The future of independent music is dependent on you. You are the reason that an artist will become “the next big thing”, so don’t be shy. If you like an artist’s music – tell people, share it.
