Austin Bey – Stray
“I started the song on the anniversary of the murder of a rapper from my city named Lor Scoota and it made me think of how many other people with so much potential had the same fate. That’s where the “don’t go where I’m from..” line in the intro comes from.” “My emotions are so…
Hartway – Dreaming
Australian duo Hartway are back with the second single from their upcoming EP ‘Motions’. The pair have a knack for creating toe-tap worthy nu-disco, with a healthy mix of organic and electronic elements. “Exploring the concept of duality through an expressive future soul piece, ‘Dreaming’ is the second pre-release single from our upcoming EP.” –…
Stanzi – Soul Shine
“SoulShine is about accepting who and where we are in life. It’s easy to make excuses and to see shortcomings in the world around us. The true growth starts, however, when we can recognize those pitfalls within ourselves and grow from them.” “Starting out as a producer there are a ton of potential excuses; I don’t…
Noisywaters – Summer Nights
Firstly, no it’s not a Grease cover. Secondly, it is a Cosmo Sheldrake esque foray into glitchy sampled folk-electro. The synth work is particularly impressive, with the Washington duo showing off their production chops by balancing busy instrumental sections with spacious breaks. “Summer Nights is a dark and dreamy dance track, a sonic excursion to…
NOVAA x LO – Lights
Pulsing, rhythmically swelling synths accompany NOVAA’s subtle, laid back vocal delivery on her new single ‘Lights’, a collaborative effort with emerging producer Lo. Think AlunaGeorge but more restrained. “LIGHTS approaches the question if being in love means falling for someone else or falling for yourself and the person that the other one sees in you….
Launchpad: Faunaphor
All my favourite little details of electro-pop are present in Faunaphor’s debut single ‘In A Library, In The Summer.’ The expansive sizzling synths, the steady restrained beat and the Spandau Ballet esque melodies. “‘in a library, in the summer (when I read I fall asleep)’ is a song about language and the moments when it…
Anjulie – Dream Again
I’m a big believer in songwriters using their talents to say something important, to shift the political needle and engage otherwise apolitical fans. There’s been a resurgence in this kind of writing as of late, Anjulie’s ‘Dream Again’ is a prime example of impactful and thoughtful song-craft. “Last summer I started a conversation with my…
Launchpad: Gallo
Gallo’s debut single ‘Sugar Daddy’ is a vibrant pop bop with effervescent vocals. “With “Sugar Daddy” I wanted to write a sing along. Lyrically it’s super playful and very tongue in cheek. Its narrative has been dressed up in sinfully sweet lyrics and addictive melodies that I hope will have you singing it on repeat….
Elsie and the Vibe – Naked
I’ve been aware of Elsie since her debut single ‘Riverside’, a compelling piece of pop that made its way into my regular Spotify rotation. Her new single ‘Naked’ is an equally impressive record, with Elsie’s vocal taking centre stage; the Brooklyn-Based songstress is beginning to impress and carve out her own sound. “I started working…
