Faults. - Sweets
Faults brings us a groovy and atmospheric new rock track that will have you immersed and captivated with their latest offering “Sweets”. This track has a somewhat atypical instrumental arrangement and it uses it to great effect with a soundscape that is largely centred around a glorious bassline that is effective and hooky with its arrangement. This leads to a structure in which the vocals sound more like nuances and leads that complement and support this core tenet of the soundscape leading to a unique and satisfying listening experience. This is a song you have to experience first hand so go check it out!
The project - Hope
The project is a wonderfully soulful rock music project that has just put out its latest offering in new rock sensations “Hope”. This track much like its namesake implies is one that is brighter than the California sun with a hopeful mood permeating through every second of this track's runtime. With an explosion of rock energy kicking off this track you know you are in for quite the ride with this piece of art and you will not regret hitting play on this one. The project has hit a home run with this track and you ought to go check it out!
