Yung Quip’s musical catalogue is growing fast & strong. Structures is his latest EP release, along with a couple of recent singles & a previous EP released only this January. Hard work pays off.
Music
The dynamic & the style & the way in which the two musicians connect is total entrancing. A magnificent live session & a total recommend, through & through.
On Ithenfal’s Wing have their sound & have no issues owning it entirely. Fans of progressive rock or rock with a genuine performance aspect will likely find themselves hypnotised by these songs.
The release is one that begins with a colourful & rather classic rock ambiance – think The Beatles – and evolves later on to layer up a number of world music inspired elements that totally derail the experience in a creatively refreshing way.
As a fan of Kid Mud, Built To Spill, Smashing Pumpkins, The Pixies, there’s something about this sort of performance & this style of songwriting that just connects so naturally & authentically.
This sort of creative work deserves to be & is indeed the most effective when it is listened to in full. You don’t need multiple sources to make up an escapism or meditation playlist when you have something that has been so considerately & skillfully crafted.
This collaboration between Canary Islands’ producer Sabina Dream & Connecticut’s Siete Plagas just oozes those easy going summer vibes – the sort we’ve been craving as we turn the corner away from the colder months.
Tom Esch brings together the energy & guitar work of indie-rock anthems, and the emotionally heart-felt expression of a solo singer-songwriter, with his latest single.
The underlying concept is one of a sheer love of music, regardless of audience size or recognition, and that in itself is something worth appreciating. The song is set to inspire.
The music is powerful, floating along somewhere between indie-pop & trip-hop, keeping the mood light initially but offering just enough of that crispness – the edge of the beat, the evolving sense of weight.
Given Brad Geiger’s extensive experience & musical influences, this album as a complete collection is quite precisely the eclectic & colourful project you’d hope for, and yet it’s really also nothing like you’d expect.
Rather than appearing as a simple performance over a beat, there’s a subtle feeling of these two aspects working in unison, so you get a confident & smooth vibe from it all. Dexxin does what he does & makes certain you hear it.
