PG Naylor - Eyes on the Moon
PG Naylor takes us on a trip back to the 60s with his sound and style on his latest track “Eyes on the Moon”. This song is packed with fun guitar arrangements and driving bass. The fuzzy tone on the guitars is particularly delectable to the ears and the solo is classy and inspired. While all of these are hallmarks of a 60s tune PG Naylor isn't completely derivative. His vocals and instrumentation have a touch of a modern twist which keeps this song sounding fresh and full of life. I loved listening to “Eyes on the Moon” and so will you!
Litvar - Oh My God
Litvar’s “Oh My God” is immersive and atmospheric with its sound. The band takes an eccentric and somewhat progressive style with the vocal stylings of this song. Featuring perfect instrumentation and tight production, this song takes you through its motions captivatingly, with a heavily electronic and modern soundscape. The song has a strong message that is conveyed amazingly through the wonderful vocal performance on this track. This song never sits still and is constantly dynamic in its style. Litvar’s music is immense in its quality and completely insulated from critique as it is so effortlessly enjoyable. So check out “Oh My God” right now!
Samuel Blaney - Ember
Samuel Blaney’s “Ember” is deeply emotional and a perfect ballad to enjoy on a cold winter night. Choosing to go for a downtempo rhythm this song is deeply intimate at its core with the spine of this song being built around Samuel’s vulnerable singing and gorgeous acoustic guitar arrangements. Ambient sampling and synth injections present in this track go a long way to build its immersive soundscape and the lyrics are deeply emotional. Samuel Blaney is an immensely talented artist and I loved listening to “Ember” so go check it out and add it to your playlist today!
Cheap Escape - Come Clean
Palm-muted guitars that drive a strong rhythm with spirited drumming and a thumping bassline that rumbles like thunder define Cheap Escape’s “Come Clean”. This song is aggressive with its tone and the vocals are fiery with the performance carrying just the right amount of edge. The production on this song is perfect and the mix is pristine with every note of every instrument ringing out clearly giving this song a full body, and the chorus is a hooky piece of art. I loved every second of “Come Clean” and Cheap Escape are artists who deserve more of your attention, so check it out today!
Lazywall - Dem 3la Dem
Lazywall are masters of their craft and have found the magic mix of metal and Arabic folk with their latest release “Dem 3la Dem”. From the instrumentation to the time signatures the Arabic influences on this song are evident and they only build the character of this song and leave it with an undeniable charm. Music is at its best when it's inspired by the various cultures and diversity of styles that exist. This song is a testament that unrelated genres can come together to make a magical listening experience that is pure sonic ecstasy. So go listen to “Dem 3la Dem” today!
