Zoë Fromer is ripe with swagger and jive on her new single No Questions. We love how her voice girates with pomp and pump around the vamped resolutions heard in the verse sections. The production is littered with sonic treats that vibrate from her aura, responding like warped electrical circuits that spark which each emphatic quip.
No Questions is the right kind of musical courage to inspire a night of careless debauchery, soaked in its preferred stylistic aesthetic, a mix of classic punk and smart indie angst. In that way it reflects projects like Liz Phair, PJ Harvey, and QOSTA. Like them Fromer is primed to adapt like a chameleon, accentuating everything she touches with her contrasting gifts, she’s insanely catchy and poetically chaotic.

We lost ourselves in the moody nature of Winter is Gone, the new single from Catch The Breeze. The vocal part is poetic in both prose and affect, citing an influence of Bowie and converting effectively into this shoegaze post rock blend. It’s both dramatic and epic.
The aura is cinematic while the lyric video finds metaphorical tension in an array of suggestive images. It’s the unassuming foundings of this sonic fury with an interpretive dance to reflect its tumultuous dynamic.

Intriguing eccentric post punk is our power source. Our existential harvest flourishes when we hear works like Zugzwang, the new single from Buddy Wynkoop. Effectively clever while wearing its influences on its sleeves, Zugzwang blends the quirkiness of Devo with the elegance of Parquet Courts and the fury of Idles.
The band is tight with flashes of syncopation and progressive pause. Most importantly, everyone feels tied to the vocal dynamic, responding on cue with every emotional swing; of which there are many. It’s complex, much like the existential dread that inspired it to deliver us from our conventional mundane evils. Buddy Wynkoop are a musical battery that energizes you with every return listen. Start your night right.

KRNA enwraps you with the immediate lush vocal at entrance of their new single I’m Wrong. The singer has an intoxicating siren affect, lending to the hypnotic side effect this moment offers.
The contrast delivers in the arrangements mid song pivot, as the full band erupts to reveal their anthemic nature. Reflecting the dreamy essence of Beach House within the shoegaze immersion known to Slowdive, I’m Wrong is a captivating experience within song.
