British duo Wings of Desire released their gorgeous new single, “Perfect World.” Shoegazy strumming guitars without the dark mood, more like the urgency of Arcade Fire meeting the rocking confidence of Bruce Springsteen. Asked about their new single, Chloe Little and James Taylor, who together are Wings of Desire, say:[…]
BXB LOVE – Losers L.A.-based Natasha Pheko, aka BXB LOVE, went to the Californian ghost town of Bombay Beach for the video for “Losers.” The song is a celebration of the out-of-the-ordinary – something you might expect to find in a mostly abandoned beach resort. Natasha says: “‘Losers’ is my[…]
This song is about friendship and is called “Bubblegum,” but don’t expect a cheesy pop tune from C’Est Karma, the musical project of Karma Catena. The Amsterdam-based singer/songwriter had a different kind of production in mind: her declaration of friendship is glitchy, dramatic, and messy like life itself. Karma explains:[…]
“Værmin” is a sweeping, beautiful album about a complex love story. While you probably don’t want to come too close to any of the animals the songs are named after, the bright, intricate soundscapes that Berlin-based artist Tara Nome Doyle creates, are something to indulge. “Værmin” is out tomorrow, and[…]
With their new single “Too Far Gone” and the accompanying video, Oxford-based duo pecq offer another piece of utterly fascinating art. “Too Far Gone” is hypnotizing: Jakes’ vocals floating light and airy above the strong, synthy melody held together by surprisingly heavy drum/bass lines. But it all works, and more than[…]

The visuals are as tranquil and in the flow as is the song itself. More than two years into the pandemic[…]
When I listened to “Through the Darkness Of Your Life” for the very first time -and since then, many, many more spins happened- I had a quick look at my calendar to see what day it was. Nope, it’s not January 1968 but 2022, yet I gladly take this trip[…]
“Eyes Closed For The Winter,” the new single by British five-piece Priestgate, serves as a brilliant mantra to sometimes accept life as it is. The beautifully calming melody and the re-assuring vocals make you instantly feel more comfortable, optimistic even. The catchy vibe of “Eyes Closed For The Winter” is[…]
“This is the most joyous one” on the new record, says Scottish singer, songwriter, and producer Josienne Clarke about “Workhorse,” the second single from her upcoming EP “I Promised You Light.” The song’s theme is the light-hearted realization that one does not have to prove anything to be loved. It[…]
Empath – Passing Stranger Neither music nor visuals of “Passing Stranger” are easy to classify, so Philadelphia-based quartet Empath is certainly up to something here. We see the four musicians at something like an impromptu party, but something more is going on here, and it is hard to stop watching.[…]
