Jack Bailey - “Love So Beautiful”
Jack Bailey is a singer and songwriter quickly making a name for himself as a soulful ballad-bard that isn’t afraid to lay his stories bare for the mic — coupled with his soulful voice and beautifully crafted pianos, he brings his latest single, “Love So Beautiful”; from the first second, you’re gently swaying to the pianos, while his vocal layers exude depth and polish, making for very beautiful a listening experience. Couple this with a gentle drum groove in the background that keeps things in sync rather nicely and a mix to win, and you have a song that will stay with you long after it’s ended.

Kelly Morgan - “I Remember, Pt.2”
Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia and with a Rolling Stone feature to her name, pop artist and songwriter Kelly Morgan has been making quite the splash in the industry lately — and on her newest single, “I Remember, Pt.2”, she brings a unique zest of energy with her production, which has great deals of groove and soul — while the sound design shines in its own right, Kelly steals the show with her vocal delivery, with wafty, reverted vocals that transport you to a land ethereal with much aplomb; couple this with a tight, precise mix, and you have a pleasure to listen to for a song — take a listen to it here!
Carrie Stardust - “This Peak”
Carrie Stardust is a singer and songwriter that prides herself on bringing an aura of ethereal atmosphere in her music — coupling the warm synths of old with her bold, melodious voice, she presents her latest single, “This Peak”; dotted with pianos and synths for ages making up a rich, layered melodic ensemble, she accentuates the mix further with her vocal lines, and richly textured harmonies; and the execution here is splendid, if I may say. The bridge section lifts off the energy quite elegantly, with an almost angelic quality, while the listener is left in awe — take a listen to the track here!
