Music
Kid Fre$h storms on to the scene with this project in a genuinely impressive way. His skill and professionalism as a hip hop artist is clear from the offset, BAG SZN sounds crisp, clean yet heavy – musically and performance-wise
Kfir’s Outta Love is a huge song, one that takes its time to kick in but offers a powerful sense of rising anticipation and passion as it progresses.
Soup Black keeps things to the point and understands the importance of letting the music work in unison with the lyrics. The album in full is worth a look for fans of classic hip hop.
LA’s Willow Raye leads with a gorgeous and mildly raspy vocal on this mellow, trip-hop inspired new single. The track is spacious and breathy in every way, utilising only a few key elements initially to build a calming yet thoughtful soundscape – within which these lyrics connect in a notably upfront and personal way.
Producer Cailo succeeds in crafting her own sound entirely with this latest release. Time And Again is beautiful, an EDM-pop fusion track on paper but something much more eclectic and emotional in essence.
As hard as it is to face, sometimes pain leads to the purest kind of art and music, and this single is up there with the best of them.
Why Can’t We Pretend undoubtedly sees Sharon Lia Band at their most creative and beautifully emotive. Powerful in essence and perfectly well captured so as to let that strength really stand tall.
Do yourself a favor, whether you typically like this kind of music or not, give this album a listen. I guarantee you’ll end up a fan.
Josh Elliott’s creative angle is one of a sort of humble artistry, there’s a story to be told, a feeling to be dealt with, and he lets the music do all of that on his behalf.
The seven-minute epic and blissful journey that is Belladonna kicks off this ambient collection of finely crafted escapism from ImButcher. This entire playlist soon proves itself to be a worthy choice for any evening of introspection or togetherness alike.
With this fine balance between character and skill, and that softly hypnotic rasp to the voice, this project will hopefully fast-track Damian Sage to his rightful position as a widely appreciated artist.
