We adore the seductive infectious brilliance of Red, the new single from Jacqueline Hackett. The singer owns a lush, intoxicating voice. She places it elegantly within every phase on the new single. Her dramatic nature adapts how Norah Jones might sound on a Lana Del Rey composition. We simply adore it.
Hang on for the turn around and the musical hypnotism that follows. “Let me melt into your arms,” she sings; knowing full well she’s already reduced us to a pool of our own melted selves.

We dig the sonic cinema of For the Kids, the new single from christian medice. The artists advances the tradition of recording as an artform. You can’t just simply plug in and get this kind of sonic brilliance; it takes calculated attention and a big imagination.
The artist finds some fresh space within that realm carved by Bon Iver, Japanese House, or Francis and the Lights. We’re into it.

VANDALISBIN caught our attention with their new single Bottle of Wisdom. We were drawn to its abundant rare features. There’s a candid brilliance to the vocal performance. Her voice is unique and full of raw soulful energy. We adore when she rises to a fury in the songs final movement.
The songs primary melody is just super fun. It bridges the gap between Paul Simon and Hole. How is that possible? Hear for yourself and see why we’re smitten for this furious German export.

Twnie writes damn catchy songs. Their new album Apparition Liminale is full of dynamic singles that touch on an array of styles. When we say singles we truly mean that. The 11 song release has some big highlights, like the radio ready Love is All We’ve Got. An abstract indie pop hit that cleverly tags an influence of alternative R&B artists like Frank Ocean and blends that into an upbringing of emo pop. The latter inspiration reigns supreme on singles like Stay Home.
We can also draw similarities to the catchy chill nature of Dayglow or the 1975 on songs like Tell Me I’m Still Young Again. Alternatively with On The Street Alone the artist embraces some slacker rock instincts and blends that with the pop feel of Steve Lacy. Everything is graced with a sharp producers touch, with slightly altered vocals meant to reference the warped chemical essence known to this sound. The entire record is a milestone release, get into it!
