Hunter by Sahara Beck

Pop trailblazer Sahara Beck returns with a third offering from her upcoming Summer ‘23 album, titled ‘All Attention on The Emotions’. A lush pop gem with endless replay value, crisp production, and compelling vocals. A piece of delightful songwriting.

Aussie Sahara Beck is based in Perpignan Beach. Her latest single is titled Hunter. Co-written with Robby DeSa, and produced by Aria award winner Kon Kersting. ‘Hunter’ comes at the tail of Sahara’s beautiful single ‘Like You’, and it is invigorating to listen to how different the two songs are, how equally musical and rich they both are, each in its own way. Hunter’s jangly guitar riffs are funky and syncopated, the finger-snap rhythm intro soon evolves into an immaculate, fast-paced groove on a tight-sounding electronic drum kit. The synths used sound snazzy, and electrifying, and Sahara’s vocal performance is beautifully accessible while being compelling, diverse, and musical. She struck me as being a very effervescent and effortless singer whose sound is direct and simple, but efficient and effective. Hunter’s lyrics discuss envy and jealousy, bringing the protagonist to life through catchy and smooth lines that subvert expectations. 

Hunter is a flamboyant offering of sophisticated, richly written, and crafted pop that will easily belong to hundreds of streaming playlists, and hundreds of minutes of radio playtime. A pure pop from start to finish.

Your Love is Like a Slow Disease by Alexia Vegas

Alexia Vegas’s latest single is a piece of rocking, slow, and foreboding electronica that features an impassioned vocal performance that heaves between soulful, agonized yells, and hushed, understated lulls, resulting in a dynamic sound that pays with multiple plays.

Based in New York, Alexia Vegas is a singer-songwriter whose sound on her latest single, titled Your Love is Like a Slow Disease, can be described as crisp, synth-based electronica, with haunting melodies, an innate sense of gravity to the singing, and a general air for drama. The song tells the age-old story of a toxic relationship that suffocates and restrains. Delivered with restrain, the verses are relatively quiet and intoxicating, with looming synth melodies and thick drones, backing Alexia’s impassioned and weighty delivery, before the chorus explodes. 

The choruses are a different story altogether. With the proper introduction of a meaty-sounding drum part, the vocal part reaches soaring heights, as multiples of Alexia’s part populate the air behind her, the output is equally powerful and gut-wrenching.

Alexia Vegas’s latest single might be simplistic in concept, but what it may lack in outside-the-box ideas is more than made up for with drama, intention, and execution. Your Love is Like a Slow Disease is a song that’s rich musically and lyrically, packed with drama and grandeur.

Strangelove by Jóhanna Seljan

All the way from Iceland…Reykjavík to be specific…a colorful and mesmerizing land…

We have a very versatile and unique artist, Jóhanna Seljan…and her latest single “Strangelove”.

Jóhanna began her journey with music from the young age of eight, writing lyrics and poems too…this was her gateway into the music world, as she started performing as a poet and an entertainer at the age of sixteen…

Then she started writing melodies when she was around nineteen…and by that time she already had quite the experience with writing lyrics, coming up with melodies, and performing live in front of crowds…she had the whole package.

Jóhanna performed in many musical shows…she’s been directing the singing in the Icelandic female acapella group Fjarðadætur too….

She got into bands, from jazz to metal…. and was the lead singer in “The Borrowed Brass Blues Band” between 2016 and 2019…..she was also a session vocalist for quite some time…

Jóhanna’s life has been setting her up for greatness, even when she didn’t know it.

Now she released her latest single “Strangelove” to expand her already impressive body of work.

 

“Strangelove” is a pop, electro, indie song…it’s a fusion, really.

…you can’t put it into a category easily…

Again, it’s a fusion…the electronic elements are strong, with arpeggiated synths sucking you into its world…but you also have a pop-sounding piano…sometimes it’s soft and mellow, other times it’s strong and huge sounding.

“Strangelove” starts out right away and starts out strong…

…I want to also add…that the song has hints of 80s/90s vibes…

…especially the intro to the song, it takes its time to take, giving us time to enjoy the music and the production…then it swallows us wholly…

Jóhanna’s vocal performance really shows her versatility.

She goes from a mellow emotional line to soaring melodies…

The vocal harmonies are perfected, Jóhanna has done an impeccable job not only on the lead vocals…but the backing vocals the right amount, in the right place to give you the best experience.

Jóhanna is currently involved in the making of her new album, collaborating with Sturla Már Helgason…a very well-established and talented piano player and music producer.

They are looking to expand on the themes of the 80s and 90s retro electronic vibes and give the audience a very unique experience.

Jóhanna we can’t wait to hear about your new album…in the meantime, we’ll keep “Strangelove” on repeat.

We wish you all the best in the world.

Cheers!

Album: Renegade by Sage Suede

Rockstar attitude…

Doesn’t care what anyone thinks…

He’s his own boss…

A renegade…

Sage Suede is an absolute blast to be around and enjoy his entertainment experience…

Yes, this is a made-up word, a fusion between art and entertainment…you probably got it right away.

Sage is a force to be reckoned with from Austin, Texas…and he just released an out-of-bounds, no limits, free for all aptly named album called “Renegade”.

“Renegade” has 11 tracks, with only the exception of 1 track, the rest are all explicit.

Sage has some shockingly fresh lyrics…and he does the delivery his own way, he doesn’t try to appeal to anyone…

The album has many vibes throughout its 11-song journey.

…hints of rock, alt-rock, pop, hip hop…some lo-fi tunes here and there…it’s an experimental fusion of many styles, many vibes, and many ideas…that work together to give us a genuine Sage Suede experience…an out-of-bounds one.

Sage has always written all his songs…and this is his 4th album.

“Renegade” is all about being cool, awesome, a star… not caring about what other people think…being yourself, and putting yourself out there.

The whole album is an experience…and let’s jump into that experience right away…

Starting with the first track in the album “New Diet”…
…the album starts out with a downbeat but sonically powerful intro…but everything is disrupted once the vocals kick in…it goes into overdrive, with a bass’n’drums mood to it.

Going into the second track “My Dank Is Deadly”… has some fresh experimental sounds going on…it still maintains the bass’n’drums feel to it and walks close to the previous track.

Moving to a completely different mood with the third track “Just Trippin”…
This song has a strong thematic musical hook…with a brass section.

It feels huge and cinematic and the vocal even feels more cinematic…with a more dreamy feel to the vocals.

The next track, the fourth one, is the only non-explicit song in the album and it’s called “Lil Peach”…

It has a very catchy chord progression that has a bit of a lo-fi feel to it…brilliant.

…and it also has a bridge that has a more jazz lo-fi mood to it…

This is a very melodic song, which reminds me of “LMFAO” style, a more upbeat feeling fills the air around the song right away.

The fifth track “Thief In Blue” is a fusion between horror trap and some rock elements.

The horror comes from both the childish sound of the counter melody in the background during the bridge and also from the actual music…creepy.

“Weed Cookies” is the sixth track, and it is full of 90s music charm.

…with some cool guitar licks and some 90s-sounding drum beats…Sage delivers an alternative performance bit with this one.

The seventh track is titled “You Go Girl”…a fusion of dance, rock, and hip-hop.
…once again, we experience a fusion between rock and drum’n’bass, it’s nothing that we’ve heard before outside of this album, this experience can only be had here with Sage’s “Renegade” album.

Going into “Funked Out In Cocky Fresh” the eighth track…a jazz-inspired, electro hip hop song…

You simply can’t put Sage in a box…he’ll break out of it easily.

The electric piano chords are mellow and smooth.

The ninth song…might have us censor its title a little bit…it’s called “Suck My D*** With Rock Candy”…and it walks in similar footsteps of the previous song…it has smooth jazz elements…this time around with some brass action too…along with experimental sounds.

“Gushy Kush Girl” is a trap and hip-hop fusion wrapped in a melodic structure. It’s smartly put as the tenth track of the album…I personally believe it’s been put there strategically. It changes everything.

We now have reached the end of our journey with the eleventh track of the album titled “Put a Towel Down Bro”.

…this song has summer vibes to it…the smooth piano riff…the tropical trap drum beats…the vocal performance and the background vocals.

“Put a Towel Down Bro” is very different in that it is the most straightforward song in the album…it’s very melodic and less experimental.

“Renegade” is a unique and out-of-the-box experimental album…mostly.

We definitely recommend checking “Renegade” out if you’re into trap, hip-hop, or experimental experiences…and if you’re into lo-fi melodic songs, we also recommend specially “Put a Towel Down Bro”…go check “Renegade” now, it’s available everywhere online.

Sage, you’re an explosive artist, we wish you all the luck in the world and we’ll be on the lookout for your new projects.

Cheers!

Wait It Out by Anchen Ji

Love can overcome any obstacle in life…

This is the theme of Anchen Ji’s latest single “Wait It Out”.

Anchen has studied music business and vocal performance at Berklee’s College of Music, where her experiences changed her life, and her understanding of life and empowered her to write her own life story.

She collaborated with the talented Berklee alumnus Chengcheng (Troy) Tang and Tyller Bolton on “Wait It Out”, where she spoke about an experience she had in life.

“Wait It Out” talks about her love story with a boy…

They loved each other, but there were obstacles along the way…

Long distance…

Age difference…

The boy wants to leave…

She tells him “Wait It Out”…she doesn’t want him to leave…

The song has a very emotional mood to it, with strong hints of hope…

…hope that love can overcome any obstacle in life.

“Wait It Out” is at its core a pop song, but what makes it shine brighter is storytelling.

Anchen’s lyrics tell the whole story, making it easy for us to visualize her story, how she acted, and how she felt…and this is where anyone who listens to the song can relate to these feelings.

The vocal performance is simple, subtle, and powerful in the emotional delivery of her story.

…also, the main chorus melody is infectiously catchy, take care.

“Wait It Out” also has very high production levels.

The whole song felt very easy on the ear, so mixing and mastering wise that’s a huge win…

From a point of song structure, the song sucks you in and gets you in the mood to start humming and singing it…by the end of your first listen, you’ll play once again and start singing along.

…and from a production point of view, all of the instrumentation and sounds feel perfectly in harmony with Anchen’s lyrics…vocal performance…storytelling…and overall mood.

This fusion of all the song’s elements results in a very impactful experience for the different audiences that will listen to Anchen’s “Wait It Out”…and it is a highly recommended experience.

“Wait It Out” is available on major online platforms, we highly recommend it, go check it out now.

Anchen, we wish you all the luck in the world, you deserve it.

We’ll be on the lookout for your future projects.

Hey Daddy by Mick J. Clark

I believe it’s a well-known thing…that art is born out of hardships.

…and that is actually the case with Mick J.Clark’s latest single “Hey Daddy”.

The song is real because it was born out of real-life events, out of hardships that Mick went through during his early years.

Mick talks about how his father walked out on them when he was young. It was a life-changing experience for him…and for anyone who experienced the same situation.

“Hey Daddy” is a pop-rock song, that tells a story, it feels like a story more than a song.

The musical production serves the purpose of giving the space to Mick to sing his amazing lyrics… as I mentioned earlier, feels like a story more than a song.

The lyrics suck you in, taking us back in time in Mick’s life, to experience his emotions as a young kid who experienced his father walking out from his and his mother’s lives.

Mick’s vocal performance hits hard because we all know that it’s real.

“Hey, Daddy” gives me vibes of such great songs by Pink Floyd…and I’ll tell you why.

Because the lyrics are electrifying, and real and talk about a huge social story about pain and recovery.

Which actually is a coincidence, because Mick is also from the UK.

The UK never ceases to amaze the whole world with the number of artistic talents that they give birth to since….forever.

… Mick has such a well-established posture in the music world…

He made it into the official 64th Grammy Nomination for his album “Causes”.

He reached the number 3 spot in the UK with his song “There’s Nothing Anybody Can Do” with over 1 million streams.

He jumped to the number 2 spot in the USA’s iTunes Top 100 Rock Songs in June 2020 with his global warming-themed song “We Know It’s True”.

Mick has written more than 60 songs with many of his works being played on many radio stations like BBC Surrey, BBC Sheffield, and many more.

Mick is a storyteller, a songwriter, a lyricist, a social observer, and a philosopher.

His words are mesmerizing, and he is one of the most “real” artists out there at the moment.

We highly recommend his single “Hey Daddy”…and all of his body of works to anyone who likes to delve deeper into the storytelling side of songs…go check him out now.

Mick, we wish you all the best in the world, you’re doing a great service to your audiences.

Cheers!

Album: Break The Matrix by Moon and Aries

There is something special about a musical duet that gets each other…complementing and completing each other artistically…

Firstly, there is the emotional reaction from the audience…it’s like a buddy cop movie or a romantic comedy…the idea that two completely different artistic charismata share the stage.

Secondly, there is the controlled creative environment that consists of two creative minds fusing together to create something truly unique.

…it’s very appealing…

…and when they click together and click with the audience, you know you’ve hit a home run.

Today, we have a very special musical duo, across the ocean from each other…

German composer/producer Tom Aries and Canadian writer/singer Jordana Moon bring us
“Moon and Aries”.

Let me first recognize the chance that got them together, especially with such naturally artistic last names.

Tom is a music composer, producer, songwriter, classically trained pianist, and a synthesizer guru from Germany…he grew up to the sounds of 80s synth-pop while playing the piano, both concepts fused within Tom and were the basis of what he’s become musically and artistically.

He composed music for video games and films…and mainly focused on instrumentals.

Tom mainly composes on the piano before producing his epics in his studio.

Jordana is a Canadian singer and songwriter…but with a twist.

She likes to include deeper and more philosophical concepts in her lyrics to empower the listeners by engaging their imagination and mental capacities.

She composes the instruments she can play..which is actually a lot…including the piano, guitar, ukulele, and violin…to mention a few.

Both Tom and Jordana…or should I say, Moon and Aries…

They started their musical journey with their debut album “Arrival” which had 9 songs, then moved to their following album, which was an EP actually called “Paradise”, including 5 songs….which brings us to their latest album release…” Break The Matrix”, a concept album with 9 songs, released on the 23rd of March of this year.

…without further ado, let’s jump into their latest album “Break The Matrix” and check it out…

The album has many elements fused together masterfully, including a bit of electronic, ambient, synth-pop, a bit of trance, and some cinematic elements…and of course with the vocals that actually have many roles in the music in this album.

The album starts out with “Illumination Society”…

It starts out with a bit of a whimsical mood, the musical verses have a bit of a chill pop feel to it…while the chorus has a bigger sounding feeling with some trance elements and some cinematic orchestration to it…the lyrics are deep and symbolic, a staple of Moon’s lyrical approach.

Going into the second track “The Butterfly Effect”…

This song has the piano as the centerpiece…beautiful chords… an emotional and impactful vocal performance, this one is definitely a highlight.

Vocals have so many layers and are actually utilized as instruments…pads and fills…very intricate design to the whole song.

Once again, a song with the piano as the centerpiece…the third track of the album, “Never For Me”…

The song has an 80s mood more than anything before it in the album…the progression of the song is very relaxing and has this kind of 80s/90s chill mood.

It can be played all day on a loop and would be more than fine for the listeners. It gets you in some kind of a trance…you keep repeating it over and over…

Vocals are doing their thing…and synthesizers are doing theirs

Huge feelings of nostalgia with this song, the fourth track…” Rescued”…we have a mix between 80s synth-pop sounds and cinematic strings…the synth sounds are very unique and fused perfectly with the piano and vocals.

I’d like to warn you…the piano melody for this track will stick to your brain like gum to your hair.

…in the best way possible.

Synthesizers arpeggios greet us into the fifth track “From Another Dimension”…very aptly named.

The intro is exactly taking you to another dimension and another world.

…the energy is higher in this track, it’s more upbeat, faster, and more energetic.

…reminiscent of the 80s/90s trance chill vocal songs…would be great to play in your car, on a long road…the sounds are all electronic, it is a completely different dimension…

Leaving the other dimension and returning home for the sixth track…a different musical mood…with more piano and an indie-sounding drum kit…with a strong 90s kind of drum beat, steady and powerful.

….now for a very different experience, going into the seventh track “The In Between”,  we’re greeted with the sounds of the ocean…the piano then the vocals enter after that…the song has a more emotional kick to it…we also hear some new and different instrumentation like the sax that plays behind the mesmerizing vocal layers and harmonies.

The piano stands firm once again with the eighth track intro…” Closer and Closer”.

…for some reason I feel something different with this track…the mixing brings out something very special in this song…the feeling of spaciousness in this track is very encompassing.

The bass and kick are punchy…and also feel reminiscent of the 90s, which is my favorite musical time period.

…we find ourselves at the last stop of this journey…the ninth track of the album…titled “Losing Control”…

This time around, Moon and Aries bring us something new, fresh, and special…they both sing on this track…the song is the perfect surprise gift to end this amazing journey.

Moon and Aries are definitely breaking new ground in “Break The Matrix”, they have successfully captured both of their musical souls and put them in this album, so it can live forever.

We wish you all the best in life Moon and Aries, you have taken us on a trip down memory lane and made our emotions flow like a waterfall.

Cheers!

Album: Empty Spaces by Parjam Parsi

Sometimes…or rather rarely we come across a piece of art that has been created only for the sake of art and expressing one’s self completely, transparent, and void of any ulterior motives…

…and some other rare times do we find ourselves in front of a multipotential, fusing different art mediums to weave his storytelling into existence…

We are lucky indeed today to have crossed paths with this multi-talented artist…Parjam Parsi is a composer, pianist, audio engineer, and writer.

Parjam Parsi fuses all of his talents to create art that can be experienced in a multi-sensory fashion…and that is evident in his album “Empty Spaces”.

“Empty Spaces” is not just a 12-track instrumental album with classical blood running through it and heavy storytelling elements…it also has a story specifically written for it…by none other than Parjam himself.

“Empty Spaces” is Parjam’s 4th studio album, it was recorded in Parjam’s private studio called “Somewhere Records” with Jonathan Gasparian and the Dark Close Ensemble.

It was released by Winter Music Entertainment in 2016.

The story is based on a short story that Parjam wrote…and it goes something like this…

A man goes on a journey, only to find himself in a mysterious city called “Fear Land”…

This city’s inhabitants have lived for thousands of years under an ancient spell…

Our protagonist meets a woman…one of the most beautiful women in the city…

…and they fall in love together…

…they get to be the parents of two beautiful twins…

…life goes on…until…

…the ancient spell finds its way into their lives…destroying everything…

…turning their beautiful life on its head…

…everything turns black…

…he opens his eyes…finding himself in the middle of a dark forest…with no memories…

…he starts taking steps toward the city…with each step, he regains a fragment of a memory…

…arriving at his house, he finds 3 graves dug out…

…starts thinking about his family, wondering where they are…

…he hears the laughter of his twins…and the singing of his wife…

…she takes his hand…asks him to join them for dinner…he happily obliges…

…during dinner…the church bells ring…from a distance…he falls to the ground…

Parjam’s story took to the stage in 2015 but was briefly halted due to changes that had been made by the artistic director of Winter Music Entertainment.

The album “Empty Spaces” acts as the musical backdrop to the story with its 12 tracks that I imagine cover all the scenes that we went briefly through…but surely add more emotional layers to the whole experience…

Now that we know what the story is about…it’s the perfect time to jump into “Empty Spaces” and experience the audio side of the story…

“Empty Spaces” starts with the aptly named track “Arrival”…

What now we understand is the moment when our protagonist arrives at Fear Land.

The track is mainly played with the piano…with strings coming in later…

It serves as a point of introduction to this world.

The strings have a very strong classical feel to them, but the piano is more modern and contemporary. It’s a very relaxing introduction to the experience and sucks you in accordingly.

The second track is “The Pulse of the City”…starting with a piano acting like a heartbeat…or a pulse…a very slow, dying pulse.

The chord progression is dark with a hint of hope mixed within.

Throughout the whole piece, the lower octaves of the piano is playing that “pulse”…

Taking us to the third track “June Elegy”.

This track has more movement in it…the melody makes you feel as if someone is talking

…nearing the end of the track the piece gets a bit more classical with its scale changes and feels like reaching a high peak of emotions.

Going into the fourth track “The Grey Melodies I”…

This track has baffled me a bit…I was trying to link it to the story…and what I felt was…it maybe tells the stories of the people living in the city…how they are completely under that ancient spell.

Moving to the fifth track “Fractured”…

The track starts with a cello melody…then the piano comes into play.

It is one of the darker tracks in the album..it’s telling a very sad story.

The cello is in the background…yet somehow it manages to be one of the highlights of the album.

Now, with the sixth track…we get the picture even more…this piece is called “Sudden”.

I would assume this is where the ancient spell starts creeping its way into the lives of our happy family with their twins.

This track also has one of the rare moments in the album where the piano stops completely, gets out of the way, and lets the cello and strings continue playing till the end alone…making us feel that loneliness too.

We then get to the seventh track “The Grey Melodies II”…this time it starts very slow…notes wide apart…

But I can imagine this part in the story where life is going on…moving slowly, nothing is happening, but bit by bit life is turning on its head…that is also apparent in the energy of this track…it starts almost with no energy…and keeps climbing up and up till it ends.

We’ve now reached the eighth track “In The Bleak”…are you thinking what I’m thinking?

This must be the part where he finds himself in the dark forest, with no memories.

Even the music is happier…as if he has forgotten the evil that the ancient spell caused.

Our protagonist walks back to his house in the ninth track “The Dreams We Chase”.

The music is lively, the piano is playing sweet arpeggios in the background, and the strings are performing beautiful swells as if dancing with the piano.

The tenth track “The Light Within”…has a very unique energy and mood to it.

I can’t tell if the hero is feeling hopeful or desperate…but this is the power of this piece, it takes your emotions and keeps on flipping them.

Feels like the kind of music piece where the actors on stage would be acting their hearts out in front of.

“Stream of Life” is the eleventh track…and it starts with the cellos playing emotionally like they were the stream of life itself. Pianos are more subdued in this track…what makes this track work so effectively is the harmony between the cello and piano… especially when the string section comes into the picture, in the second half of the piece.

 

…which leads us to the last piece of this mesmerizing journey…

The twelfth and last track…” Nothing to be Said”…

This track takes us back to the mood of the beginning of this story…it’s hopeful, a bit on the bright side…

…my interpretation of this piece…is that this is the feeling of our protagonist, in the last moments of the story…before everything ends…a moment he felt the love that he had for his family, a moment where everything felt perfect….just right before everything ends.

“Empty Spaces” by Parjim Parsi is an emotional and moving collection of musical pieces that should be experienced with the story that Parjim wrote to get the full effect and range of emotions that he intended for the audience.

We will be on the lookout for new projects by Parjam, who is a true artist and we wish him all the best in the world.

Prana by Olla

Prana by Olla

Throughout our lifetime-so far-we’ve crossed paths with almost infinitely endless playlists filled with love songs…some of them stand out, especially the ones that don’t hit it on the nose with their lyrics and are very obvious in their portrayal of love and emotions…

Today, we have one of those rare songs that break the mold…” Prana” by Olla.

Olla is a Monaco-based singer/songwriter and she’s breaking boundaries to change the storytelling of love songs.

She hails from Monte Carlo, one of the most unique cities on our little planet…I believe that the place you are born into and raised in has an impact on your character…especially when you’re an artist, you tend to soak in the information and experiences around you in a unique way…

…and this is how Olla is actually sharing with us her stories with us, through a very different artistic lens.

Olla’s upcoming single “Prana” is a story about the energy of life and love.

The word “Prana” comes from the Sanskrit teachings meaning “life force energy” or the 

“breath of life”.

The lyrics talk about that flow of energy and how it makes us whole, the lyrics are very meditative and relaxing…which is something that’s extremely rare to witness, especially these days, as lyrics are not usually that soothing…Olla has a very unique approach to her lyrics and it’s one of the points that makes her stand out in what she does.

…going hand in hand with the lyrics, is the music of course.

The music starts out with a very soothing intro…and by the way, the overall sound quality is absolutely off the charts…everything sounds crisp, clear, punchy, and easy on the ears too.

What’s really special is the relationship between the lyrics, music, and Olla’s performance.

All 3 of these elements are going hand in hand…steady, with the same energy flow, at the same pace with the same “life force”, together…

Not only does Olla tells the story of “Prana” and the life force energy of the yogic teachings…but she does the same…the audience will definitely feel the energy that Olla is singing beautifully about.

Olla’s upcoming single will be released on the 31st of March, with a music video to go with…

The music video is made with the same concept and it will be a dreamy and soothing experience for the audience…this is something we’re in dire need of, a positive experience, told through music and lyrics.

We’re super excited for Olla, she’s an incredible artist that is spreading a very positive message to everyone and she’s doing it with the best artistic qualities there are…Olla is absolutely captivating…and we will be always on the lookout for her new projects.

Olla we wish you all the luck in the world!
