NEW MUSIC: Bess – Mooncore (

Most music follows centuries-old patterns (which are rooted in physics), so it is fascinating to hear when those rules and conventions are broken and rearranged. A new beautiful record of this kind is “Mooncore”, a seven track, 34 minute piece by Copenhagen, Denmark artist Bess. When harmonies and rhythms no[…]

3 Is A Band: The Federal Empire

There’s not really much to write about The Federal Empire -yet-, with only one track released so far, but it is particularly fun to listen to a cool track several times on repeat and think of all the future tracks this one promises. “I Never Liked Your Friends” is the debut single[…]

NEW TRACK: Oh800 – Character Building

A song that uses the cowbell so joyfully in the opening bars, can only be helplessly horrible or incredibly awesome. The latter is the case with “Character Building”. After the cowbells did their job of somewhat sending us on a different sonic path, the track takes on a quality that we know[…]

NEW TRACK: Lily Elise – Palm Trees

We love New York City, but we do understand the allure of L.A. as the entertainment and glamour capital of the world. For Bay Area singer/songwriter Lily Elise, on the other hand, “it’s just palm trees” and a place that pushes you to play by other peoples’ rules.

NEW TRACK: Silent Crowd – Candy

Bright and infectiously upbeat is “Candy”, the new single by alt-pop quartet Silent Crowd, hailing from South East London. “Candy” is one of these songs that put a big dose of sunshine in your day and make you want to sing along. Listen to the glorious alt-pop tune now:
