Miila Mor has an intoxicating voice and her recent single Where the edges are lands hypnotic. Her easy sultry touch feels comforting but there’s a sense of pain in her delivery. Its a reflection of the songs complicated lyrical narrative. “If I’m falling, let my body go through the floor; and if this is magic don’t tell me how it all works…”
Mor is relatable in her willingness to settle for ignorant bliss. Stylistically her voice has some 10,000 Maniac memory within a modern indie songwriter framework.
Classic indie rock revivals are something of a summer trend and the new single from Strawhouses fits the bill. The song No Other Way Around has a classic Arcade Fire feel with a music video that harkens to the vibe of Coldplay. The song was mixed by Danny Woodward at Whitewood Recording Studio and Mastered by Guy Massey. The video was Filmed at Matchbox Productions by Oliver Thomas and produced by the band themselves.
Guy Massey ain’t just a name on a credit sheet. The legendary engineer has been involved in some legendary productions including The Beatles Let It Be Naked and recent releases from Spritualized. Don’t skip on Strahouses, they’re doing big things! Peep the video below!
“For The Dreamers who cannot sleep, and the trouble minds who cannot seek, may the moonlight cast your arms out to the sea.”
Times are hard and we’re wrapped up in a generational conundrum. It’s simply suffocating. Music to related and comfort, and most importantly to motivate our spirit. Samuel Blaney gives you all of that with his recent release Borderlines. Luscious and smooth in his delivery, Blaney is a rare one. Stylistically he lands somewhere between Damien Rice and Jose Gonzalez. Two indie folk favorites. Drift into Borderlines!
