Supporting unknown bands since 2017
Not long ago, Gavan Waldby came out with a very personal song titled "Thanks For That", which was dedicated to the four special women in his life that have always been around having his back. Now, the artist has finished a new, instrumental version of the song.
"This song is a little quieter and more reflective than the other songs that I've recorded lately, and I really like the contrast. It's nice to be able to take a breath and relax a bit." - Alec Berlin
I became overwhelmed by world events, the War in Ukraine is devastating, and the pandemic has taken such a toll, I needed to find a way to feel in control of something. Using creation as my vehicle, I poured myself into this in March of 2022 as a sort of side project challenge. It became so much more to me. The name and titles were drawn from my connection to my garden and the natural world. My garden has been a safe haven for me, a place for serene reflection, which this album takes to heart. Golden Hour and Gala Gardens as a whole album is soothing like a balm.
"Time Is Running Out" by De Antiquis Et Novis begins with a couple of reverb-drenched piano stabs, quickly followed by a steady Techno kick and chiming, digital Hi-Hats. As the song progresses, the jumping bass begins to unfold slowly but surely, and a female vocal appears to warn us that, in fact, time is running out!
The classically trained artist's alias comes from the Finnish word for death "kuolema" spelled backwards. That little fact also gives a first clue on what her music is all about. Powered and inspired by the deep and multifaceted nature of our human experiences and looking into that from a different, not previously seen angle, the music of Amelouk is diverse, fearless, intimate and hypnotic.
"As the first thunderclap sounds, we set off marching upon a winding trail to a place where fear and conflict fall at our feet. Once our metaphorical task is complete, the song undergoes a transformation back to its original motif as we find our way trudging back to whence, we came." Daire Barefoot
"I think overall, everyone can find something they like and connect with in my repertoire. I recommend following me on Spotify, so you don't miss anything :)" Elad David
The entire piece by Filip Dahl, generally speaking, encompasses a mood of deep thought, somberness, and dare I even say remorsefulness at times? That's the beauty of a story told by music.
"I started making music during the lockdown period here in the US. I have always loved music and at the time I was hosting my own radio show on the Stationhead app. An internet radio app where anyone could host their own show and play whatever they want. I still have shows there. As a fan of EDM music, I was excited when I learned the legendary festival "Tomorrowland" was going to be virtual that Summer (20202). I got the idea of making my own music having played around with samples before. And so began my love of making electronic music." - Scott Foster
"Never be scared to ask for help, and don't be scared to open up. That's what I want people to take from this EP" - Big in Borneo
