PROTOGONOS présente son nouvel album « SILENT OPPRESSOR »

PROTOGONOS

Nouvel album « SILENT OPPRESSOR »

Conçu principalement pendant le confinement, le dernier album de Protogonos puise dans ses interrogations, se livre à l’introspection et appelle à la curiosité. Comme un message adressé aux futures générations, cet opus fait office de vecteur entre l’appel au bon sens face à un état des lieux plutôt alarmant.

Le temps est à l’action ! Au gré de cet album, l’auditeur est invité à prendre conscience, à ouvrir les yeux sur le monde qui l’entoure, à travers plusieurs thématiques qui nous touchent tous. Entre dénonciation d’un consumérisme encadrant nos libertés, appel à l’unité et à faire chacun sa part pour un monde meilleur, invitation à repenser notre rapport au temps, Protogonos s’engage dans une seule et unique envie : s’unir pour agir.

Moitié intimiste, moitié axé sur un message collectif, « Silent Oppressor » est l’album de la maturité pour un groupe qui a visiblement trouvé sa voie/x.

En attendant la sortie de l’album sur toutes les plateformes le 30 septembre prochain, on vous invite à découvrir le titre « Scars » dont le clip est désormais disponible !

Titre porteur, comme le reste de l’album, d’un message fort à l’attention de son auditoire, « Scars » invite à considérer nos expériences et nos blessures afin de se reconstruire, toujours plus fort.

Protogonos est un groupe de Metalcore originaire de Reims. Ben à la guitare est un grand fan de Metalcore des années 2010, Jeremy à la batterie, puise son inspiration dans ses influences variées, Thomas à la basse et Aurelien à la guitare sont, eux aussi, des purs produits de la scène Metalcore. Reste Nico, féru de Heavy Metal et de Trash, dont la voix tire aujourd’hui très nettement vers le Death Metal.

Énergique, puissant, et progressif, le son du groupe puise son essence dans la matière primordiale de la scène Metalcore et Hardcore, tout en marquant son répertoire d’une grande richesse mélodique, alternant voix brutales et claires.

Le groupe sort un premier EP de metal moderne en 2017, intitulé Ex Nihilo. L’occasion pour eux de se lancer sur scène avant un tout premier album baptisé

From Chaos To Ashes

. Ce second projet marque la transformation vocale du chanteur lead et une étape de plus vers la métamorphose du groupe. Aujourd’hui, ils nous proposent un second album qui tend davantage vers la signature Protogonos, une patte musicale qui semble avoir été maturée dans un album qui leur ressemble.

Entre l’orientation résolument Metalcore et une voix qui se démarque au gré des samples, particulièrement présents dans ce projet, le groupe a trouvé sa recette !

Tim Chesley présente son nouveau clip « WHEN LOVE WILL REIGN »

Tim Chesley

Nouveau clip « WHEN LOVE WILL REIGN »

On vous avait présenté Tim Chesley lors de la sortie de son dernier single “Faith Without You” issu de son EP “The Last Blue Sky”. Après avoir enregistré plusieurs albums autoproduits en France et en Australie, puis avoir signé chez Revolver Records (UK), un label indépendant basé à Wolverhampton (Stone Roses, Jane’s Addiction, etc.), Tim Chesley est de retour. Aujourd’hui, le chanteur de pop progressive franco-américain a fusionné ces deux derniers EP dans un album commun entièrement remasteurisé intitulé « Rain & The Blue Sky ».

« When Love Will Reign », un souffle de douceur dans les oreilles…

Quand la vie ne sera plus, nous nous retrouverons… qui sait ? L’avenir nous le dira si l’amour règnera… qui sait ? Ode à l’amour, ode à la vie, le single de Tim Chesley vient caresser l’auditeur d’un souffle de douceur. Sa voix se pose sur vos épaules et le refrain reste en tête. Aussi mélancolique qu’empli de positivité, ce nouveau titre vient comme une berceuse réconfortante nous rassurer sur des questions dont personne n’a la réponse.

L’idée finale derrière le titre « When Love Will Reign » est d’amener un message d’espoir, celui que l’amour règnera et que nous triompherons tous, par-delà la mort qui n’est finalement qu’un passage obligatoire. ​

Le clip a été réalisé par deux sœurs, Mylène & Julie Jarrier-Stettin, en école de design. ​ Incarnée par un soldat, le mort vient comme un souvenir voyageant à travers le temps. Car à chaque fois qu’un soldat meurt, sa mémoire reste dans l’esprit de sa famille et de ses proches, ses actes restent gravés dans la mémoire collective : il continue à vivre.

Véritable balade spirituelle au piano, qui dénoterait presque du reste de l’album, ce titre est à écouter en boucle et sans modération !

La pop-rock de Tim Chesley est profondément spirituelle et ses textes se veulent être une réflexion sur les changements constants que nous expérimentons dans nos vies, à l’image du ciel dont les nuances et les teintes varient à l’infini au-dessus de nos têtes. Entre une ambiance « fin du monde », et un message profondément optimiste, Tim Chesley a fait de cet album un hommage à la vie et à la mort. Il nous appelle à vivre pour toujours et à embrasser l’éternité, et ce, guidés par le sentiment intérieur et profond de l’amour qui nous lie tous ensemble, entre autres à travers la musique.

MORE KICKS release their new LP “Punch Drunk”

MORE KICKS

New LP “Punch Drunk”

Stream

London, England’s More Kicks have just released their second LP

Punch Drunk –

their first release on Milwaukee’s

Dirtnap Records

and Rotterdam’s

Stardumb Records

.

Punch Drunk

marks a new era for the band: heavier, more expansive, and with more twists and turns. It veers from sparkling harmonies to fearsome riffing in the blink of an eye, with never a second wasted. As with their first record, it was recorded live on to 2” tape. Listeners will hear influences from classic 60s garage, 70s NYC rock and roll, and jagged 90s guitar pop – all wrapped in a razor sharp bundle. Singer/guitarist James “Sulli” Sullivan says, “

Punch Drunk

is exactly how I felt when I was writing this album. Knocked around and woozy. It’s an awful cliche to claim that music saved your life but it’s a cliche for a reason and putting this thing together was a total lifeline in a horrible moment. Personal and global upheaval”.

“I just listened to the full album the other day for the first time in months,” Sulli adds, “and it kind of surprised me how muscular it sounds. It sounds angry, desperate, discombobulated, in love with melody, in love with guitars and bass and drums, in love with playing music with friends despite – or perhaps because of – what was happening in the outside world. It sounds like resilience. It sounds punch drunk”.

Accompanying the album is their newest single for

Terminal Love,

complete with its tour diary video from a recent run of Spanish gigs. Sulli says, « The song is actually a fairly sad expression of a relationship ending. Or rather the creeping realisation that something is just slightly off kilter. So I enjoy the fact that the video stands directly in opposition to that and just shows how – a couple of years down the line – the world can feel a little brighter when you’re on tour in Spain, slurping honey from a plastic bottle and trying to make people dance. »

More Kicks is an explosion of pop melodies, jet-fuelled guitar riffs and shifting, sinewy rhythms with James Sullivan (Sulli) on lead vocals and guitar, Kris Hood on drums, and Paolo Mantovani on bass/vox. The band arrived from nowhere – seemingly fully formed – at the end of 2017 on London’s garage scene. Their self-titled debut album was released in November 2019 on a coalition of five independent labels (Wanda Records, Snap Records, Dirt Cult Record, Beluga Records and Adrenalin Fix Music) – a concise and ragged lesson in pop songwriting dripping in melody, cynicism and energy. The new album

Punch Drunk

is an indie-garage-pop gem that will please fans of The Buzzcocks, The Replacements, Guided by Voices, The Exploding Hearts and The Kinks alike.

Sid Seth shares his new « simple Yet True »

Photographer Credits: Dara O’Cairbre

Sid Seth

New « simple Yet True »

Spotify

Sid Seth is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who forms a blissful blend of soul and pop into his truly unique repertoire. Originally from Ahmedabad, Gujarat in India, he moved to New York five years ago to study at the Manhattan School of Music, and has been pursuing music in the city ever since.

Emerging sublimely into the scene, the musician is releasing his new single “Simple Yet True.” Written in the depths of lockdown, he found himself alone in New York without friends or family. He confides, “I was feeling lost in a once bustling city that had abruptly fallen silent. I started painting without thinking too much, and unexpectedly produced a long forgotten image from my childhood which immediately inspired me to write this song.”

Working alongside producer Kris Crawford (Ariana Grande, Shawn Mendes, Josh Groban), and Grammy winning mastering engineer Alex Psaroudakis, his latest endeavor came to life. With compelling conceptual approaches, Sid continues, “I wasn’t sure what to do so I started painting. As a child, fine art was something I really enjoyed but I hadn’t held a brush for years. As I started mixing colors, I saw an image that took me back to childhood. It brought me immense joy as it was a forgotten memory with my family.” Growing up, his mom introduced him to The Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel, Boney M and Abba, while Sid’s dad introduced him to the rhythm and melodies of Hindustani Music and Indian Classical music. Paired with the soul inspired tones of Michael Jackson and Ella Fitzgerald, Sid’s enriching sound can be attributed to his vast musical influences.

Exploring the idea that people find their own stories in art, “Simple Yet True” opens with the tender tones of an acoustic guitar. As a keen guitarist and pianist, Sid creates the perfect backing for his delicate vocal energy, as the track envelops with raw authenticity. As he sings, “If you look inside these waters lies hope”, his soul intertwines with intricate musicality and soulful-inspired pop. The warmth in his tone and the tremendous energy he possesses makes him a trailblazer of this time, with the familial comfort of art pathing the way for his resonating lyricism.

Sid has performed in various venues in New York City, such as the Bowery Electric, Feinstein’s 54 Below, and the Green Room, as well as multiple cities in India. Having recently graduated from the Manhattan School of Music, Sid has gained humbling acclaim from multiple critics and the likes of Opera News. Garnering thousands of streams across his repertoire, we are set to see extraordinary things in 2022 and beyond!

Les Lehmanns Brothers présentent leur nouvelle vidéo « Rain » (Alhambra Studios Live Session)

Lehmanns Brothers

Nouvel EP The Youngling vol.2 [Alhambra Studios Live Session]

Sortie le 18/11/2022 chez 10H10

Les Lehmanns Brothers sont de retour avec Rain, leur nouvelle vidéo enregistrée en live à l’Alhambra Studios. Avec ce quintet et leur nombreux invités, impossible de rester assis sur son siège. Leur groove fusionne des accords de jazz avec des éléments de hip-hop, de neo-soul et de house. Les Lehmanns Brothers relèvent le défi du mélange entre une interprétation contemporaine du jazz, de funk et d’afrobeat. Derrière ce son unique, fait de rythmes explosifs et de voix incroyables, on retrouve les influences de Prince, James Brown, Maceo Parker, The Roots ou encore A Tribe Called Quest

Après avoir sorti l’EP The Youngling vol.1, en 2021, les Lehmanns Brothers continuent l’aventure en 2022 pour présenter The Youngling vol.2 à paraître cet automne. On retrouve sur ce disque cinq titres qui prolongent l’histoire et dévoilent préoccupations, illusions et sensations à travers de nouvelles compositions propres, le tout sur un groove chaleureux et énergétique. The Youngling vol.2 est un opus spécialement enregistré et capté sur un format de live session à l’Alhambra Studios. Voici Rain, le nouveau joyau des Lehmanns Brothers à découvrir.

C’est à Angoulême qu’en 2012, dans un petit garage de l’avenue Lehmann, que se sont retrouvés cinq lycéens en option musique, frères de groove partageant la même passion pour les rythmes-afro-américains. Influencés par des funkers tels que Prince, Ghost-Note ou D’Angelo, les petits frenchies entendent revisiter à leur tour le fameux jazz-funk des seventies, tout en y instillant des échos hip-hop, house et nu-soul.

Les Lehmanns Brothers sont principalement un groupe de scène, qui tourne considérablement en France mais également au-delà des frontières: Belgique, Allemagne, Espagne, Italie, Angleterre…

Avec son triangle rythmique infernal (Clément Jourdan à la basse, Alvin Amaïzo à la guitare et Dorris Biayenda à la batterie) qu’appuient des cuivres enflammés (avec Jordan Soivin au trombone accompagné par Jonas Muel sur la tournée) et le chant et les claviers de Julien Anglade, on ne résiste pas longtemps à leur répertoire qui donne des fourmis dans les jambes et transforme chacun de leur concert en une grande messe du groove.

Pisano confides, « I can get a bit shy in social situations, especially at big parties. But I also have a more bubbly and outgoing side, and having a crush on someone tends to drag me out of my shell.

Kevin Ross shares the acoustic version of his new single « Sweet Release »

Dernière mise à jour :

19 sept. 2022

Kevin Ross

New single « Sweet Release »

Spotify

“Sweet Release” uses waterfall resemblant guitar reverberation and wispy vocals to create a romantic atmospheric highway escape song. Ross’ vocals both captivate and soothe the ear as he officiates an original spin on romanticism and respite from daily life. On his stripped down acoustic performance, Ross brings a new level of vocal definition and tactful intimacy to “Sweet Release” as he blends surrealism and sensation to create a sonic dreamscape. Kevin Ross showcases his refined, delicate vocals while simultaneously captivating the acoustic show with his powerful range and grounded stability.

“Sweet Release” is an ode to impending possibilities.

When you take the wheel, you control your own destiny.

An accomplished singer, songwriter, producer, and performer, Kevin Ross determines his course on his own terms. The Washington, D.C.-born artist elevates R&B through eloquent songcraft, rich sonic architecture, and downright traffic-stopping vocals. Since launching his career in 2016, he has quietly risen to the forefront of the culture with over 100 million streams and counting,

#1

Billboard

entries on the Adult R&B Songs Chart, and countless sold-out shows. Now, he continues to forge ahead with more music in 2023 under his artist-owned label Art Society Music Group (ASMG).

“I love to collaborate, and the music never stops,” he explains. “It still has to get done, so I’ll make it myself. Whether I knew it or not, producing was already written into my DNA as an artist in terms of who I was supposed to be all along. That’s not just an artist who can sing, but an artist who can write, produce, perform, and execute at the highest level possible in order to deliver to the masses.”

Kevin vividly recalls his first memory of music, listening to Lisa Stansfield’s “All Around The World” from his car seat as a baby. He went on to obsess over the likes of Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Donnie Hathaway, and Smokey Robinson. Following his high school years at Duke Ellington School of the Arts, he earned a scholarship & degree to Boston’s prestigious Berklee College of Music. Settling in Atlanta, he initially made waves behind-the-scenes, penning hit charting tunes for the likes of Trey Songz, Toni Braxton, Tank, and many more.

As a solo artist, he wrote, recorded, and produced “Long Song Away” in 2016, toppling both the Adult R&B Songs Chart and the Urban Adult Contemporary Chart at

#1

. In between collaborations with Kevin Hart, Ne-Yo, and T.I., he built a bulletproof solo discography highlighted by

The Awakening

[2017],

Drive EP

[2017], and

Audacity Vol. 1-2

[2020]. From the latter, “God Is A Genius” generated 13 million streams across platforms. Along the way, he also toured alongside legends Babyface, KEM & Maxwell, in addition to picking up nominations at the Soul Train Music Awards, NAACP Image Awards, and iHeart Radio Music Awards.

In 2019 he founded Art Society Music Group as the home for all of his releases. With Kevin at the helm 2021’s Drive 2 [ASMG/Empire] represented another high achievement. It bowed at

#1

on the iTunes Top R&B/Soul Albums Chart, while “Looking For Love” vaulted onto the Top 10 of the

Billboard

Adult R&B Radio Play Chart.

Beyond acclaim from

Billboard, Rolling Stone

, and

BET

,

Washington Post

proclaimed,

“Ross doesn’t sound like he’s trying to find a musical identity. He knows who he is, and his album reflects that.”

“

Drive 2

definitely shows growth,” he notes. “It’s been five years since the last one. I was producing a lot more on the second installment. I’m way more confident in my ability. It’s leaps and bounds better than the first. It’s all just time, growth, and awareness.”

You can hear it, see it, and feel it on his standout single “Sweet Release.” Proving to be another smash produced and written by Kevin with bright guitar threads around a simmering beat as his voice flutters from vulnerable verses into a vital hook highlighted by hypnotic high register.

“Everybody has a guilty pleasure or something to take them away from the daily monotony,” he observes. “It’s more so about escapism than it’s meant to be sexual or sensual. For me, the main key is the escape. If you’re riding in the car, you can play the song. It could just feel liberating like a cool breeze. This song is transformative in a sense. Wherever you are, it can be your soundtrack.”

Ultimately, Kevin keeps creating the soundtrack to your life.

“When you listen to me, I hope the music makes you feel something, puts a smile on your face, or provides comfort,” he leaves off. “It’s much bigger than me. I want you to make memories to these songs. I couldn’t ask for anything else. For me to be complete, I need to write, produce, arrange, mix, and perform on stage to affect people. I feel like I’m doing what I need to do, and this is where I’m meant to be today.”

Natalie Shay

New single « Heaven »

Spotify

Natalie Shay is an indie-pop artist hailing from North London. The multi-award-winning musician has established an ever-growing presence and loyal fanbase through her explosive live performances and unforgettable anthems, recognising her as one of the UK’s hottest emerging talents. With indie synth pop leanings and ferocious guitar playing, Shay’s references range from Haim and Taylor Swift to Little Comets. Her relatable lyrics touch on love, self-discovery and the everyday experiences of a twenty-something.

Combining her youthful and charismatic aura with her classical training and time spent at the prestigious BRIT School, Shay has finessed the ability to produce undeniably catchy music, whilst maintaining musical maturity. Written alongside George Gianluca in his Brixton studio, Shay’s incredible new single “Heaven” came to life. Her new track comes of age in an ode to personal growth, exploring the point in time in which a girl feels like she has become a woman. Shay confides, “I feel like in lockdown I learned a lot about myself and growth. In essence it’s a song sung to my younger self about what I’ve discovered and how I see myself getting through life now. I think it’s important to reflect on the most unique parts of your personality, and as a songwriter I think transparency comes from writing about your own flaws, not just those of others. »

Shay’s dynamic melodies pair with soaring vocal energy and the layering harmonies that bring an overarching warmth to “Heaven”. The familiar acoustic arrangements pair sublimely with Shay’s unique musicality, as her lyrical reflection captures key moments of her life. Portraying her personal story across her repertoire, “Heaven” is the next single ahead of Shay’s highly anticipated EP, where each track explores a key feeling sensed when writing during the lockdown. She continues, “I hope I can inspire other girls in particular to get into songwriting as so many female singer/ songwriters inspired me to do so and it’s saved, changed and made my life.”

Shay continues to pique the interest of audiences across the globe. Garnering attention from notable publications such as

Billboard, Clash

and

The Line of Best Fit

, to name a few, Natalie also performed « New Wave » on CBBC’s « Saturday Mash Up! » late last year, and has landed on Spotify’s New Music Friday playlist in 12 countries. She has also worked on EDM tracks with the likes of Grum and Kryder, racking up millions of streams to date. Having sold out venues across London, most recently the Camden Assembly and Oslo, tickets are now on sale for Natalie Shay’s upcoming headline show at The Omeara in London on 25th November. After a very big summer appearing at renowned festivals such as Reading, Y Not, Hyde Park BTS and 110 Above, it looks like 2022 will continue to be an explosive year.

With more music on the horizon, Sir Will is not showing signs of slowing down anytime soon. “The message is simple – I’m here to create great music and deliver it from the perspective of someone who came from nothing and who has seen success before all the music and fame.”

Braveweather shares their new single « missing pieces »

Braveweather

New single « missing pieces »

Spotify

On « missing pieces » the band confides, « the message behind the song is that no one’s situation is perfect – a lot of « happy » people are struggling – and they’re putting on a brave face, despite what might be missing in their life. Everyone has their own cross to bear, demons to fight, situations that they may struggle with. This song is meant to empower those who are struggling and recognize how far we’ve come, regardless of our struggles. » With explosive anthemic melodies, hard-hitting drums and rapid-fire bright guitar riffs, « missing pieces » is an unforgettable rock single.

Founded in late 2019, braveweather is an Orlando-based indie rock band whose music explores the concepts of intimacy, infidelity, loss, mental health, struggle and personal purpose. Elements of their unique sound are influenced by late 90’s and early 2000’s indie-rock and modern indie rock and punk.

braveweather came together for the first time as a band 2 months before COVID-19 spread across the world, locking everyone indoors for months. For the duration of 2020, Christian, Maria, and Tony only saw each other – writing and recording songs in unusedfront office of a casket warehouse that they got to use as a practice space.

Being in solitude for most of a year gives you a lot of time to think, and to reflect. These thoughts, feelings, and reflections are at the core of braveweather’s writing.
