The Swedish triple-threat from the south who combines country, blues, and singer/songwriter music with a lot of soul to make Americana music is back with “Need To Run.”
The Diamond Voice: Cicci Landén “Need To Run”
Silverlux “Born to Chase the Sun”
"We're heavy on the retro vibe. Although I have a modern computer-based studio, I don't really use any sounds that weren't around in the 70s and we try to reflect that with our visual aesthetic too. It's not a conscious choice, it's just what moves me. The lyrics will generally have a story, but they’re not the focus of the song, as it's more about the sound and creating a vibe." Clive Mead/Silverlux
Roisin O’Hagan “Road From Nevada”
Dreamy guitar sounds and smooth percussion invite into a soulful celebration of life, love for exploration and experiences, and love for the person she has grown to become. Her beautiful vocals soar high like an eagle, and the lyrics are tipped full of little references, tipping hat to the artists whose music had inspired her music the most, as well as giving a nod to phrase "sometimes dreams do come true".
Holly Wild “Thrill of It”
"Thrill of it is about the chemistry that you feel with someone that you shouldn’t, but there is an addictive electrification that you get when you are with them, and you can’t stay away. You know you should, but you don’t. It’s a type of torture, a self punishment that you put yourself through when you are with them because you know you can’t be with them, but the pain feels so good that you don’t turn away." Holly Wild
Alli Bean- Outside Voice
"Outside Voice is about personal growth & boundary setting. It's about learning where your responsibilities lie & sitting with the understanding that not all people are our friends, even when they smile brightly & offer us our perception of love. It's about confronting who we are in the face of the way others see us & shouting loud truths while letting sleeping dogs lie." Ali Bean
Wild Fire “When It Wasn’t”
So even if it may be saddening to think that there was no love to begin with and you may have been a fool the whole time, "When It Wasn't" also perks you up with a strong burst of energy, helping to see it as a lesson and to move on. Hold your head high and carry on!
Kahone Concept “Amicably”
"Amicably is about me coping with the breakup. I wanted to write a song that had a “screw you, your loss” type of feel but I wanted to do it in a manner that shows that I actually care and the whole nonchalant vibe is just an act and a way for me to cope." Ben Orrvick / Kahone Concept
Blood Pumping: “The Cream of Portland’s Gourmet Set” by Step into the Kitchen
The 2022 single, “The Cream of Portland's Gourmet Set” will make your heart beat faster. The song is a rush of adrenaline waiting to happen.
Mass Experience “Rise Up”
"“Rise Up” is top-notch and sits proudly as a very good example of electronic music that has been produced by someone who understands their craft. This probably comes down to Little and Poulton’s longevity in the Australian music scene but listening to “Rise Up” feels so satisfying with its homage to nostalgia and its ability to take electronic and organic elements to create a track that feels fresh."
Jonathan Harrington “Get Away”
I simply hope that people can enjoy listening to my songs. I have high aspirations for my music: that it helps people feel seen, heard and understood, and that it inspires people to reflect on their relationships and priorities. But more than anything, I want it to be something beautiful in their lives - even if it's no more than a pleasant song in the background of their days. Jonathan Harrington
