Think blues rock, Americana, rock and roll, all carefully intertwined throughout a live-sounding album of nine original tracks. What’s more, Thunder Bridge is the dynamic duo’s debut – an impressively established playlist of energising gems, and a timeless style reignited amidst a series of modern reflections.
Music
Old-school vocals that are faultlessly rhythmic, the end of each phrase echoed for that nostalgic depth and a sense of unity to further the song’s driving force – Empire City is timeless by nature, and boldly original in its conscious framing of ideas and the development of the story.
Creative compositions, imaginative, and both melodic and intense – a style unconfined by genre, with instrumental intentions creating an atmospheric and enchanting lane somewhere between rock and ambient. N
It’s a huge production in the end, an atmospheric fusion of Gospel and Rock, surrounding a timeless melody, and piercingly evocative vocals from our leading artist.
Vehement punk rock with an edge of metal and an unrelenting tempo – Kārtël raise the volume and the pulse, with the topical and stylistic grit of a Spanish-sung Punaladas.
Big beats and euphoric synths, a mass of detail united within a dreamy blanket of escapism – Bryyo kicks off the hypnotic EP Past, with the pristinely ethereal tones and hopeful melodies of Visor.
It’s a devastating ending, but the calm and quiet of the music, the humility and tiredness of the vocal, all counters the impact of this – making it feel like a necessary surrender of sorts, to the unsolvable desperation and ache of searching for someone who can’t be found.
The song evolves from intimate and warming, to near-euphoric and quite stunning at its peak. The final moments just briefly introduce a whole choir of vocals and instrumental fullness – the band set-up and backing voices all reinforcing that unrelenting dedication to a significant other.
Introducing the perfect electro-pop track to immerse yourself in this season – Charlotte Jade blends pop perfection with eighties synth-wave and a deep groove, for the smooth and engaging BACK TO YOU.
Hugely cinematic production sets a quickly intriguing vibe – Pastor Weed branches back to his Hip Hop roots, with the sharp bars and haunting, unforgettable hook of the mighty FORGOTTEN.
Initially reflecting on the stark contrast between adverts – one for luxury living followed by one requesting charitable support for those in poverty – The Borderline takes a universal look at the striking separation and still connection between all of us as we go about our lives.
Retro-robotic vocals and dreamy to lo-fi electronic production meet with conceptual intention of a bold, uninhibited nature. Jud A. Moller captures a series of contemporary reflections, with the raw mixing and modern world contemplations of The Evil World EP.
