Unequivocally the master of long-form rhymes that hold attention in both rhythm and intensity of story and revelation, Ultra_eko reaches new levels of leadership with this album, in musicality and writing alike. His consistent lack of will to adhere to the so called industry’s expectations culminates, presenting a ‘fuck the scene’ attitude reminiscent of the greats, only from an underground legend as yet unsurpassed in both ability and creative identity.
London--UK--Europe
Wildly uplifting and intimate in its realness and colour, Joshy Connor’s album Love unknown feels like a genuine expression of connection and joy. Not a project written out of the common search for fame, but one that simply could not remain unwritten.
Heavy indie rock distortion and impassioned vocals quickly reset the cultural timers, as the UK’s own Faded Shades deliver a nostalgic anthem of resounding self-confidence and cascading layers of guitar.
Featuring a pristine intertwining of delicate synths, a choir of breathy vocal layers and modest organic rhythms, This Life feels like a near-euphoric ode to the atmospheric musicality of eras past – as well as an inspiring and uplifting celebration of life and the world itself.
Releasing in June on Whiteberry Records, Once Upon a Time is the latest project from indie House and Techno devotee CRS-1, and it’s a creatively fresh EP that seeks to utilise an inventive Western theme throughout.
Promising delicacy and warmth evolving into energy and possibility, Delayed Maturity perhaps quite wonderfully encapsulates the implications of its title. These gentle worldly observations, the quiet whistles and panning rhythms, depict a sort of youthful view of the world, and the later sections, as the intensity rises, relay a kind of confidence, depth and determination.
Chemically infectious as a classic indie anthem, established London songwriter Hugo Brijs gets the combination of elements just right, for the unforgettable new single Creeper.
Imaginative instrumental guitar music gets the mind wandering to blissful new plains – established guitarist Mark Leedham blends strong grooves and hypnotic melodies, throughout Towers Of Plain.
London songwriter and artist Jennifer Juan brings a unique fusion of traits to modern music, as the seductive tones of First Love softly pour through the airwaves.
Pure and precise, compelling in an honest and enjoyable way – everything about James Keen’s music feels authentic and engaging. It’s likable, timeless songwriting, with just enough of a distinct sense of character to warrant the rightful expansion of audience currently taking place.
Easy-going, organic rock and hopeful songwriting make up the aptly-titled new album from London songwriter and artist Mike Melan.
Divinely warm vocals bring a delicate balance of smoothness and rasp, as songwriter and artist Sophie Feriani employs both style and substance, for Guilty.
