Undiscovered Gems – Livingmore, SYRE, Gemma Sky, Stomp Box Choir

Livingmore are vintage catchy on their new single Away Away Away. They compliment their nostalgic melodic tendencies with a refreshing indie influence, finding the middle ground between The Go-Gos and Alvvays. The vocal part brings convincing tempered precision, while the band adds an energetic pump worthy of the dancefloor. The two voices blend elegantly while never overwhelming the sanctity of the song. The vocal part is a surefire earworm on this proper single.

We adore the abstract but approachable essence of Medusa’s Song, the new single from SYRE. The Canadian producer songwriter has a penchant for irresistable pop adjacent melodies that land unique. It’s everything a pop indie crossover fan can hope for from a release. It has real radio potential while staying true to the underground. The new single chart’s a story of forbidden love within a dreamy stylistic facade. SYRE finds the middle ground between Tame Impala and Beiber.

We found ourselves in an interpretive dream world as we lost ourselves within the nostalgic brilliance of Photograph, the new single from Gemma Sky. A glorious blend of synthwave and modern electro pop, the main progression feels seeped in new wave while the vocal part adds notable character. The singer finds all the right notes on this convincing work. It manages to find its own place within a crowded field of eighties nostalgia. Fans of both the Midnight and Human League will dig this work.

Stomp Box Choir caught our attention with their new single Magnifier. An intriguing array of influences show an affinity for genre lucid electronic innovators like Daft Punk, Massive Attack, and Air. The new single features a dreamy lead female antagonist. She adds cinematic reverence as the layered design evolves with dramatic appeal. The vocal emphasizes their trip hop aesthetic colliding with new wave influences. We’re super into it.
