When I came across Dance Routine, the three-track EP by British alternative electronic pop-band Dead Menace, I knew immediately that I wanted to feature “Moving to Japan” on glamglare because the song has plenty of heart in its infectious dark electro-beat body. It also helps that Dead Menace cites some[…]

Today, Brooklyn singer, songwriter, and producer Laura Jinn releases her new EP “Sick!,” a razor-sharp production, both musically and lyrically.

Today, the English indie rock trio in earnest releases their self-titled debut EP with six personal, moving tracks. The EP was recorded in a converted barn in single takes, which leads to a organic, honest sound.
