SONG PICK: HEATH – Brambles

After having listened to some amazing new tracks all afternoon, I stumbled upon “Brambles” and knew from the first couple of beats that this would be my Song Pick of the Day. “Brambles” is the single from HEATH‘s six track EP “JUNE” released April 29, and aims right into the music-loving[…]

RELEASED TODAY: Oyinda – Flatline

Today, Oyinda releases another track from her upcoming EP “Restless Minds”, to be released on June 10th. Like the predecessor “Never Enough” it is an elegant and emotional track, which keeps you on the edge for its little over 3 minutes.

Q&A with KYTES

After premiering KYTES‘ new video “I Got Something” last week on glamglare, I am thrilled that the hottest band coming out of Munich, Germany right now took the time to answer a few questions in our new Offstage feature. The four indie-rocker just arrived back home from touring Europe and also playing the maybe most prestigious (industry) music festival,[…]

EP REVIEW: Molyneaux – Before The Dawn

“Before The Dawn” is the latest self-released EP by Aaron Molyneaux, who makes music as Molyneaux. Residing in the countryside near London, Molyneaux has been making music for quite some time. It’s also been a good while since I first came across this amazing solo artist, having repeatedly listened to his previously[…]

SONG PICK: Joy Atlas – Drop Your Sword

Joy Atlas, a UK four-piece around singer/songwriter Beccy Owen just released their third single, “Drop Your Sword”, our Song Pick of the Day. It features driving intricate beats, a prominent baseline and minimalistic synths that complement Beccy’s expressive vocals. This is 2016 music at its best.

NEW TRACK: Venus Demilo – Sinking Ships

With so much great bands coming out from Liverpool, UK these days, I lost a bit track… and almost (!) forgot about this stunner of a song. Despite the maybe dramatic title, “Sinking Ships” by Venus Demilo is a wonderful song, thanks to Tom Anderson‘s warm, beautifully charming vocals, the self-reflecting lyrics and[…]

NEW TRACK: ARI – Teachers

Chart-ready sing-along pop doesn’t get better than this: the vocals, the build and the message. Toronto singer ARI has a simple one for all “Teachers” who tell her how she is supposed to behave: “If it’s good for you it’s good for me”.

SONG PICK: Dear Thieves – My Street

There’s something instantly gripping about “My Street”, the new single by Dear Thieves, hailing from Melbourne, Australia. The allure of “My Street”, which will be officially released May 20th, comes partly from the hard-hitting drums and relentless guitar chords, and partly from the uniquely husky vocals. Dear Thieves consist of Joel Hansen (drums) and[…]

VIDEO: Alex Cameron – She’s Mine

“She’s Mine” is a catchy, instantly likable song and then on top of it comes this feel-good-video, you can’t help but break out into one big smile. When I watched “She’s Mine” for the first time,  I wasn’t sure if Alex Cameron is kinda making fun of 80s bands or if[…]

NEW TRACK: Psycho Comedy – One

Psycho Comedy, hailing from Liverpool, UK just released their debut single “One”. As the band name already hints, “One” is a warm and fuzzy piece of psychedelic rock, with all the necessary bells and whistles like guitars on heavy reverb, and an overall moody and hypnotic setting. Listen to “One” now:  […]
