“It’s less of a goodbye and more of an ode to honour a dearly beloved. Sometimes in a relationship you forget where you end and the next person begins. OMH is about learning how to take care of yourself after you’ve long forgotten. Like that relationship where every ounce of you wants it to work,…
“The characters in the video are a representation of different ideas associated with substance abuse, ranging from the temptation to the ‘glamorous’ side. It also demonstrates how drug taking can drown & expose the user into feeling paralyzed by paranoia. My character in the video is on the receiving end of their decisions as I sing about…
Almost Owen is an electro-pop songwriter based in Boston. His new single follows on from ‘Good Thing’; his most successful track to date. ‘If It Were Me’ has got a ‘Justified’ era Timberlake vibe to it with big drums, driving synths and bouncy melodies. If Almost Owen continues to put out music on this level…
“It was a reality check, a cry for help and a personal account of the very worst moments in a long period of addiction and substance abuse. I always knew that one day I would have to get clean, I just had no idea how. This is a diary entry from the middle of that mess.”…
“The visual for ‘Happy When’ was something I wanted do get right but also keep subtle, because the song is written with a vague sarcasm to it and it’s true nature is to poke holes in some really unhealthy attitudes our society has towards romance. In the video we see someone (me lol) who is…
“All my songs start out as ballads and that’s how Touch The Sky was born. This was one of those songs that took 4 minutes to write. I remember just standing in front of a microphone and the words/melodies just came flowing out. The aesthetic of the track paints sort of a fun yet dark…
“This is my first video from my second EP “Mild Cartoon violence”. It is set in my life long home town of south London. It’s about a romance, trying to get with someone sensually, physically, mentally and spiritually. We had such fun shooting this as it turned in to a full on party after the…
I’ve been a big fan of LeyeT since ‘Don’t Make Me Cry’ found its way into my inbox last year. Her new single is another step forward, ‘Drip Drop’ is synth-pop in its most impressive form. Plucked guitars, a thumping synth bass and trap drums lay the foundation for LeyeT’s soaring melody. The track really…
Haux’s new single ‘Heartbeat’ with have you feeling all kinds of things; heartbreak, loneliness and longing. The production is subdued, with a few carefully selected synths accompanied by a minimal beat. It leaves space for Haux’s beautifully haunting vocal melody; peppered with reverb and echoey delay the song will take you back to a familiar…
Flipped samples, grainy drums and infectious pitched vocal hooks abound on ‘Fell 4 U’. It’s the new track from London-based beat-makers ‘Best Friend’, who are beginning to show their staying power.
