New Orleans Entertainer Big Joe Kennedy Lights Up the New Year
with the Full-Band Jazz & Blues Classics of ‘Amalgamation’
New Orleans--Louisiana--USA
A long-time pianist, artist and street performer – Chafa melts away the weight of the world with his delicately expressive, emotive and skilful musicality.
Immense & immersive tribal dance vibes pour through with a fine fusion of world music & EDM as N2BLÜ push their creative reach even further.
The unmistakable songwriting and production style of N2BLÜ shines as brightly as ever on this brand new, emotionally loaded single.
“In a world of all things digital, how do you find something real?”
Beautifully done, an ideal choice for that motivational boost right when you need it, and a fine reminder of the things that truly mean something to us in life.
Blending the classic vocals of a big-band, indie hit from yesteryear, with multiple layers of distorted, euphoric synths – Kiss Me Like The Devil boldly walks the line between optimism & melancholy.
Whoever you are, whatever your personality or background, Neon Gold welcomes and embraces you. Konstantin Smorodnikov and Jonathan Arceneaux are a match meant to be, and the music speaks volumes on behalf of that.
Contrast is utilized well throughout this song, there are indeed instances of peacefulness and folk purity, but these are more often than not followed up by those which strike as a little darker.
There’s a sense of artistry to everything about the song – to the musicality, the changing stages, the passion in the vocal, the lyrics. There’s also a level of theatre to the delivery & the second vocal fragments that echo certain ideas.
Dukki Boi as a rapper has the sort of nostalgic and natural vocal tone to really carry an appealing vibe within modern hip hop. As an artist in general, this single feeds further into that sentiment – making for something that quite genuinely feels as if it was a slept on hit from the dawn of the genre.
The hook has a simple melody & concept that is repeated just enough times to really make it sink in. The increasing tension or passion within the verses draws your focus elsewhere, but you always come back to that moment, that connecting thread.
