Conceptually exploring the concept of time and how some people appear able to slow down its effects, this album by Vger delves into the possibility of freeing oneself from the constraints of time – offering soundscapes designed to mystify but also remind us to embrace the past as much so as the future.
Music
Performatively noting influence from jazz and soul-pop legends, the music of Imaginary Problems, and in particular, the lyrical depth and openness, all shines light on a whole different set of inspirations from Indira May.
Lifelong musician and songwriter Josh Rifkin celebrates the beauty of nostalgia in line with contemporary reflection. His latest album Lancaster Road is an organic and distinct sounding project, loaded with stories and melodies that quickly help pave the way back towards the comfort of the past.
Built around acoustic guitars, humble keys and cinematic whistles, the music presents with a mildly cinematic aura, but proceeds to offer characterful vocals both delicate and distinct, as we explore the intricacies and depths of the song’s inspiration.
Cinematic production brings together neo-classical strings and the higher-intensity of EDM, as we enter a structurally impassioned and powerful original song, from an elusive Celia Frost.
Timeless EDM blends the pace and escapism of fine production, with the soulful delicacy and impassioned melodic appeal of thoughtful pop, as Mr. Mig and KJ collaborate, for the intoxicating Tragedy.
Singer and songwriter Donna Brooks keeps the poetry and acoustic honesty of folk music alive and well, with the evocative melodies and cleanly-mixed vocals of her new album It’s Just Rain.
A little old school, a little contemporary in topic, the timeless comfort of an indie UK vocal lead – something like Audio Bullys with a twist Jamiroquai – of My Time weaves its web in seconds, and proves to be quite fearlessly an amalgamation of various genres and traits, which works brilliantly in its favour.
Set up in three parts, as per Benjamin’s influence from the iconic David Gilmour (Pink Floyd), the post-four-minute work Through The Rain is all at once nostalgic and original as it pours through with a growing sense of brightness and power.
Step into nostalgia and feel the embrace and uplift, as songwriter and artist Eamonn J delivers a beautifully poetic and heartfelt ode to organic indie expression.
Introducing a world music ensemble that’s easily worth your time. Tunday Akintan and The Yorubeat Band have captured an hour-plus live performance of original songs, peaking with the raspy vocal introduction and colourful horn section of Lion of Africa.
Cincinnati alternative rock project Bio Borg intertwines the pace and riff-strong embrace of progressive metal, with raspy punk vocals and echoing sentiments, throughout a chaotic and cinematic yet compelling arrangement.
