Alice Pisano

New single « Boys Like You »

Introducing Italian-born, London-based, Alice Pisano, a contemporary pop artist who made a bright entrance to the scene back in 2018. Since then, she has garnered a fantastic name for herself, offering listeners an ecstatic realm of lyrical bliss and contagious musicality.

Now, Alice Pisano is back with a new single “Boys Like You”, the first single from her upcoming EP

Shattered But Still Cool.

Written and produced alongside Jez Ashurst (Little Mix, Maisie Peters, Tom Grennan), Pisano has released a single that truly encapsulates her burning desire for true pop-perfection. Complimentary themes of infatuated heartbreak and dating duels pair effortlessly with symbolic synths, dreamy pop beats and rebellious rhythms to create an extraordinary track.

In Pisano’s words, “Boys Like You is about my experience with dating apps. I finally got around to joining one and decided to put myself out there. Online dating can definitely be fun but also frustrating, and can really shake your self-confidence. The day we wrote the song, I remember feeling pretty disheartened about it. It can be tough to deal with failed dates and behaviours like ghosting, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking you’re not good enough, or pretty or fun enough… talking to my friends though, it became pretty clear they were having the same experience.”

With shining global success, her debut single “Celebrated Life” garnered over four million Spotify streams alone. Following her successful debut, Pisano also had four singles enter the iTunes Pop charts, numerous radio plays on stations including the BBC and over three million views on Tiktok with her single “September”. Her single “Open Up” was even featured as the soundtrack to the summer trailer of the British hit TV series Hollyoaks. This year, Pisano played two shows at The Great Escape Festival and was one of the first 50 artists to be announced. Accumulating numerous Spotify editorial support, including 14 New Music Fridays, as well as critical acclaim from online tastemakers including

Clash, Earmilk, Wonderland

and

Atwood Magazine

, AlicePisano is proving to be a rising star in the contemporary pop scene.

French House producer, Confluence drops ‘My Everything’

‘

My Everything’

single

Steam/Download

LABEL: CNFLNC

London-based progressive house producer CONFLUENCE has released his latest single,

‘My Everything’

on the 11th of July via CNFLNC. With a BA in music production and DJ skills from the Point Blank Music School in London, the producer has accumulated one hundred and twenty thousand streams across platforms and been featured on the noteworthy Youtube channels Wanderlust (350k subscribers – featuring artists such as Flume, The Chainsmokers, Two Feet, ODESZA and more) as well as LYCKA. Notably, CONFLUENCE performed alongside Alice et Moi at the launch of a collaboration between the french sports shoe brand Le Coq Sportif and the french fragrance house Guerlain. Growing comfortable in the fashion world, he performed a 3 hour set at the popular Cyberdog store in Camden Town, London.

A singular unforgettable moment sparked the French-born producer’s desire to pursue music: In 2012 he watched David Guetta and Nicky Romero perform what would become his all-time favourite song, ‘Metropolis’, live in Montpellier, France. He was certain he had glimpsed his future and, after receiving his first DJ controller for Christmas that same year, began exploring the realms of electronic music, where, ultimately, he found expression in House music. Expanding his abilities as an artist, he learned to produce the genre, taking inspiration from the likes of Jon Hopkins, WhoMadeWho, Moderat, M83, Adriatique, Max Cooper, and Lane 8. His own sound offers elements of Tinlicker, RÜFÜS DU SOL, CamelPhat, and Ben Böhmer.

Like a moth from a chrysalis,

‘My Everything’

is an ever-changing audio experience that twists and flutters, transforming effortlessly from one moment to the next. Distorted bass tones rise before settling into a soothing calm of emotively bowed strings. In perfect unison, each note plays its part, creating a symphony of synths, a clear exhibition of CONFLUENCE’s dynamic style.

CONFLUENCE tells us about the single:

“My Everything is a Progressive House and Melodic Techno track and a vibrant, positive and energetic track and I would describe it as my Summer Hit. I remember opening a random project that I started 2 years ago and decided to develop the idea and one week later, the track was completed. What inspired me when making My Everything is the vocal. At the beginning I wanted to use a vocal sample just to hear how it would sound if I was to work with a singer/songwriter and after finding the vocal line, I thought that this was actually perfect and from there I kept it and it became the official vocal of the track.”

Jason Maxwell shares his new single « For Now »

Jason Maxwell

New single « For Now »

Stream – Download

The song was inspired by a past relationship that ultimately failed – very much a case of ‘right girl, wrong time’. A year or so after our relationship ended, I noticed she had moved on to someone new and my initial reaction was to immediately question whether her new relationship was as serious or meaningful as her previous relationship with myself.

It was a challenging process writing “For Now” however the words did really flow with ease. The challenging aspect was the unnerving awkwardness of opening up to my co-writers (Elias Edlund and Shawn Moore) on a subject that still stings and to communicate the story in such a manner that’s more negative/ toxic than it is positive/happy with respect to emotional health. Most writers/ artists want to write/record songs that will perform well commercially and there’s an industry-wide unspoken assumption that negative/toxic songs are less likely to succeed in the commercial space. I want to write and record the best songs I can create and I’m less concerned with which boxes the songs will fit into – I want to create timeless music so in the long run I feel like it’s better to create something genuine and relatable opposed to creating something that merely ticks the boxes of today’s criteria checklist. Once Eli, Shawn and I were in agreement on the song’s concept and writer/listener perspective, we were able to write the lyrics with relative ease.

The song is lyrically-unique in the sense that it’s my only song that has a significantly modified final chorus. In this case, the modified lyrics alter the entire direction and meaning behind the lyrics’ message and in turn changes the perspective of the listener. Sonically-speaking, this song is quite a departure from my usual bright and happy sound but I think it’s necessary to explore all areas of the spectrum in order to fully develop my artistry. From a conceptual standpoint, this is the first time I’ve told a story that shines a negative light to some degree and done so in a somewhat emotionally-unhealthy manner. I understand from a commercial perspective why most songs portray everything in a positive light but I also know that I can’t be the only one who’s ever felt this type of way over a failed relationship. I know I’m not perfect but for better or worse I’m going to tell real and authentic stories from experience and I hope there are people that can relate.

“For Now” is a bittersweet song I wrote as a message to my ex-girlfriend. In a way it’s the first vulnerable self-depiction of how I truly felt about us drifting apart and her finding someone to replace me with. “For Now” is my honest attempt at expressing my innermost thoughts, feelings and emotions straight from the heart to pen to page to studio recording. I feel like everyone at some point in their life goes through a rough breakup but most people are too embarrassed or afraid to ever admit that deep down they want another chance – feelings we all think we shouldn’t say out loud and feelings that exist internally regardless of intention. Essentially the song revolves around telling my ex-girlfriend that she can do far better than her new partner that she replaced me with and the song concludes with me revealing that I feel like I’m a better match for her.

It’s a genuinely loving, somewhat bittersweet/toxic but straight from the heart message to my ex-girlfriend telling her that she can do better than who she replaced me with. It’s genuinely loving in the sense that I truly want what’s best for her – it’s somewhat bittersweet/toxic in the sense that I’m suggesting we should rekindle our relationship because I feel that what we shared in the past is greater than the love she now shares with her new partner.

Lyrically-speaking the song is unapologetically honest and the emotionally-charged auditory atmosphere is vividly conveyed through Jason’s passionate and heartfelt vocals. From start to finish “For Now” builds dynamically throughout, featuring a tasteful blend of traditional country instrumentation combined with contemporary pop production elements.

Jason Maxwell is a singer-songwriter & recording artist known for his high-energy performances & approachable personality. Jason’s unique approach to posting creative content online coupled with his genuine eagerness to engage & interact with his listeners has helped him garner global viewership with +70 million views across social media platforms.

MONTE shares their new single “T.D.T.T.M”

MONTE

New single “T.D.T.T.M”

NYC based Punk Rock Band MONTE’s latest single “T.D.T.T.M” or “Too Depressed to Touch Myself” is a rampant, raw, and volcanic take on the sexual side effects that come with a breakup. The music video takes place in the MONTE Labs Operating Room as the opening shot closes in on singer and lead guitarist Caitlin Montclare strapped in on the operating table. She’s dressed in heart boxers with bones painted on her body and a big red nose that screams Operation. A nurse reading Playboy and a surgeon with kitchen tongs try to solve Montclare’s dilemma, but they just can’t seem to do it.

MONTE was formed by singer and lead guitarist, Caitlin Montclare in 2017, later adding drummer and audio engineer, Ismael Baiz, and bassist Meghan Rose to the official line- up. Since becoming MONTE, the band has released several singles, two EPs and performed more than 50 shows throughout the United States, including renowned New York venues such as “The Knitting Factory” and “The Bowery Electric”.

MONTE is influenced by a lot of bands from the late 80’s and early 90’s such as punk bands The Lunachicks, NOFX, Bad Religion, The Offspring and metal bands like Motörhead, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, and Plasmatics. Montclare takes an old school sound and puts her own spin on it with the band adding interesting chord changes, riffs, and song structure. Drummer, Ismael Baiz likes to call this “The MONTE pocket”

Nouveau clip « Le Tweet »

Il est bon d’imaginer qu’un jour, tout le monde s’excusera d’avoir laissé le monde dans l’état où il ne l’a pas trouvé.

Et surtout les plus puissants, ceux dont le pouvoir est immense. Ceux qui ne s’excusent jamais de prendre autant de place…

Un petit Tweet peut tout changer…

Cette chanson est issue de ce que l’on classera dans 100 ans comme l’art postconfinement : celui qui s’est inspiré des envies de nouveau monde et qui en a fait un constat réaliste sur le pouvoir absolu de notre société de consommation. Avec beaucoup de légèreté et un peu d’absurdité, Alexis Hk y dépeint la solitude du consommateur qui se rêve ailleurs mais se rassure ainsi. Fort d’une belle auto-dérision, il se compte parmi ce groupe socio-économique que constituent les bobos.

Beaucoup de plaisir saupoudré de poésie dans ce titre qui signe le retour d’Alexis HK 4 ans après le plus sombre « Comme un ours ».

MYKA shares his new single « American Kids »

MYKA

New single « American Kids »

Spotify

The track features warm layered vocals, fuzzy basslines and euphoric synths over expansive soundscapes. MYKA confides, “I’ve always felt like I was in two places at once growing up, so it allowed me to see two sides of what being a young kid in America was like. Those two perspectives are where I drew inspiration for this song, the dreamer and the conformist.”

There is an unmistakable feeling of vulnerability when hearing MYKA’s warm tone and self- reflective lyrics. Defined by his experiences in his late teens and early twenties, his tender demeanor is colored through his obvious soul searching, both musically and personally. MYKA’s use of innovative angles and unpredictable direction prove that there is no single genre that can define him. Captivating his audience with his affinity for irresistible melodies and cinematic choruses, the multi-talented artist exudes an energy at live performances that you would have to see to believe.

The Greensboro, NC native, MYKA started recording music at the early age of thirteen via a makeshift studio at his cousin’s house. By the time he was legal, he had already released three mixtapes and various singles. His late teen years weren’t very stable as his family was constantly moving state-to-state. Music was the only sure thing he had at those times. This allowed MYKA to steep himself into multiple cultures and music scenes, eventually leading to a sharp focus on exactly who and what he wanted to become.

Artists such as Kid Cudi, Frank Ocean, N.E.R.D, MGMT, The XX, and Beach House all help in influencing his versatile and genre-bending sound. As a multi-faceted artist who has made a career for himself with an eclectic mix of genre-defying and catchy compositions, MYKA is currently residing in L.A. where he continues to push his sound and style. His new single « american kids » is an autobiographical single profiling him growing up in two places at once influencing his perspective as both a dreamer and a conformist.

Stefano May shares his new single « Don’t Say Goodbye »

Stefano May

New single « Don’t Say Goodbye »

Spotify

Entitled « Don’t Say Goodbye », the song is a light, fresh, Motown reminiscent song that puts a spotlight on second chances in life and relationships. With stunningly powerful emotive vocals over an illuminative and catchy melody, the song features funk highlights and colorful pop flair for a romantic and lighthearted listening experience. Radiating with warmth and charm, it’s a great choice for any couple looking to add a touch of spice to their relationship.

On the video, Stefano confides, « In this video, I witnessed the new beginning of the second chance between this couple. Through their actions, smiles, and affection for each other while being in sync with the nature around them, I was able to see myself as the person I was at a unique time in my life. »

Stefano May is a singer, songwriter and piano virtuoso who fuses soul, pop and classical for an enthralling musical journey. The talented songwriter’s music is marked by hope, love and connection in the aim to heal.

Born in Soveria Mannelli, Italy, Stefano took to music at an early age and began classical piano training at age seven. He quickly gained notoriety by performing on popular Italian TV shows, and since then has collaborated with famed songwriters, as well as the famed director Franco Zeffirelli. Honing his craft further, the musician and singer has ultimately composed and scored motion picture soundtracks under the guidance of award-winning filmmaker Jamal Joseph.

2019 marked the beginning of his solo project, when Stefano began collaborating with famed producer Chico Bennett (Madonna, Lady Gaga, The Killers, Prince). His debut single “Prayer” highlights the songwriter’s warm and confessional vocals brimming with such passion, and yet such delicate vibrato tones. Stefano’s otherworldly vocal delivery glides with memorable melodies over intimate piano. The moving lyrics detail the act of loving again after hardship and disconnection. With comparisons to Sam Smith, Andrea Bocelli, and Michael Bublé, “Prayer” marked a graceful and exciting debut for this generational artist on the rise.

In Stefano’s single “We Are The Power,” the songwriter invites us all to take part in healing the world together. The glorious composition features soulful vocals, a soaring melody, and a vivacious chorus complete with a gospel choir for a most heartfelt demonstration of love, optimism, and vitality.

« Find My Way » was born as a musical tribute to the Motown world that has been highly influential to Stefano’s musical taste and sound since he was a young child. Thematically, the song was inspired by his mother, who raised Stefano to pursue big dreams and share his gifts with strength, patience, and heartfelt dedication.

Stefano’s most recent single, « False Horizon », features stylistic tangents of iconic California vintage highlighted with elements of nostalgic country flair for an infectious pop-driven song about finding your inner peace, no matter the pace of your soul. The textured eclectic blend of instrumentation culminates into deep feelings of romantic Hollywood angst and soulful reckoning for a song all about embracing one’s inner journey.

Stefano aims to bring people together through the power of music. By sharing his gifts, he empowers others to do the same. “Music is made to heal your soul. People find commonality in the music they listen to and every song has the right time and place for each of its listeners.”

93FEETOFSMOKE shares his new album « GOODGRIEF »

93FEETOFSMOKE

New album « GOODGRIEF »

Stream / Download

Entitled

GOODGRIEF,

the 10 track album features the artist’s signature unfiltered and raw vocals over explosive soundscapes, making for a riveting and dynamic sonic journey.

For as much as 93FEETOFSMOKE fits into the curious corners of the internet where memes double as gospel, he’s just as at home on the D.I.Y. stage of a sweat-soaked underground gig IRL. The Virginia-born and Oregon-based singer, songwriter, producer, and guitarist could’ve easily materialized in the late nineties, but his movement actually bubbled up in 2014—and it quietly boiled over by the time he signed to Photo Finish Records eight years later. With hundreds of millions of streams and plays, a rabid following, and acclaim from

Earmilk

,

Elevator Magazine

, and more, he shocks his vison to life like never before on his 2022 full-length debut album,

GOODGRIEF

.

“It’s a big twist of culture,” he explains. “My music is the intersection of skateboarding, fashion, the

Crunk

-era, and pop punk. It’s all uncut and unfiltered. I’m not trying to control everything and make it perfect and pristine. It’s a less-perfect vision of everything. It’s important for me to allow things to be the way they are. It’s real.”

In third grade, he picked up a $99 starter guitar with a tiny little amp, but he wasn’t trying

“to read ‘Let It Be’ on freaking sheet music

.

”

He eventually joined jazz band in junior high as he managed to get kicked out of various local groups because he

“didn’t want to stick to the script

.

”

So, he skateboarded a lot. While in college, he fell into the underground club scene in North Carolina, embracing drum and bass and teaching himself Ableton. He initially produced for friends before adding his own vocals. Countless shows followed as did a cult audience.

“I was just yelling my head off over loud 808s and weird beats

,

”

he states.

“Because people showed up, it gave me the confidence to keep going

.

”

Gaining traction, he crafted “eighteen” for Lil Lotus as well as various tracks for shinigami, family pet, Guardin, and more. Simultaneously, he dropped solo outings such as

2k16 Pack

,

2k17 Pack

,

2k18 Pack

, and the fan favorite

BUMMER

, including “PPL THT I LUV THE MOST.” Meanwhile, he joined forces with Savage Ga$p for the 2020 banger “Pumpkins Scream In the Dead of Night” [feat. shinigami], exploding with 67.4 million Spotify streams and 10 million cumulative YouTube views. Following

SOFUBI

,

he just further harnessed the power of the chaos at the heart of his signature sound.

“I came up in the hip-hop scene,” he elaborates. “The vision of 93FEETOFSMOKE was very influenced by that. There are guitars, but it’s not suburban white boy band music. It comes from different experiences. It’s honest.”That honesty defines his 2022 single “FUCKED OVER” [feat. Phem & Tosh The Drummer]. Punk-y guitar creaks underneath emotionally charged vocals as he proclaims,

“I’m pretty good at getting fucked over, I’m pretty good at drawing: straws shortest

,

”

before an ecstatic bass-boosted beat booms. On its heels,

Earmilk

christened him

“an artist on the rise with an eclectic, out-of-the-box taste for music and a progressive, genre-fluid sound to match

.

”

“I was lying in bed one night, and I came up with the hook,” he recalls. “When Phem and Tosh got on

‘FUCKED OVER

,

’

it turned into something way bigger. Lyrically, it’s on-the-nose and simple. You’ve gotten blindsided and fucked over. Every single person in the world goes through it. I’m tapping into the moment and feeling.”Meanwhile, “ALL I EVER WANTED” bleeds out cathartic lyrics over gentle acoustic strumming as he pleads,

“I think I ran out of luck, could you please just give a fuck?”

I felt like I’d gotten all I ever wanted, but why am I not happy?” he ponders. “It was written to be consciously straightforward.”

The title

GOODGRIEF

sums up the duality at the core of 93FEETOFSMOKE.“My grandma used to always say,

‘Oh Jiminy Cricket’, good grief’

,” he reveals. “On one hand, it’s an ode to her. It’s nostalgic, because it reminds me of my childhood, but it also speaks to the project. Thematically, it deals with grief, but it’s also positive. The grief is good, because you’re getting over pain. Art is something very spiritual. You sing these words, and a crowd chants them back to you. It’s a ritual. I’m trying to manifest positivity in this ritual.”

In the end, 93FEETOFSMOKE is unlike anything you’ve heard in any era, and that’s why he connects. “I hope the sound is always unexpected and fresh,” he leaves off. “At the same time, this is the most evolved and mature version of 93FEETOFSMOKE. It’s everything I’ve been working towards.”

NOUVEAU CLIP ‘NEVER SEEN YOU DANCE’

DISPONIBLE

– NO DAYS OFF –

Après 10 ans de silence, TEED (De son véritable nom Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs) dévoilera son nouvel album ‘When the Lights Go’ le 9 septembre. Après les singles ‘Blood in the Snow’, ‘Crosswalk’ ,’The Sleeper’ & Forever’, le DJ et producteur britannique présente ‘Never Seen You Dance’, toujours en se baladant entre funk, indie, UK garage et house de Chicago.

Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, dévoile son nouveau single « Never Seen You Dance », le cinquième d’un album symbole d’un regard sur un voyage profondément personnel à travers une période de dix années riches en aventures.

Enregistré principalement dans le studio d’Orlando à Los Angeles, « When the Lights Go » est son premier album depuis « Trouble », paru en 2012 et acclamé par la critique. Ce nouveau disque marque un nouveau départ dans le son, défini bien sûr par les événements de ces dernières années, une œuvre substantielle, contenant 17 titres, représentatifs de la durée d’attentre entre les deux albums. Englobant l’écriture de chansons, de ballades et une esthétique centrée sur la pop, plein de sentiments, de récits et de malheurs.

Orlando reste un artiste qui sillonne les mondes des productions électroniques live et orientées vers les clubs, ces dernières définissant la tournée « A Dream I Have » récemment annoncée. Les 22 dates comprendront des lieux emblématiques tels que le Spybar de Chicago, le Flash de Washington, le Red Rocks Amphitheater, la scène DoLab de Coachella, etc. Cette tournée intervient en même temps que TEED est nommé aux Grammy Awards pour son titre « Heartbreak », avec Bonobo, dans la catégorie « Meilleur enregistrement de danse/électronique » cette année.

Bien que « When the Lights Go » soit le premier album complet d’Orlando, la période de la pandémie a été marquée par une production prolifique de l’artiste, notamment le EP « I Can Hear The Birds » de 2020, dans lequel il a utilisé des enregistrements en direct d’oiseaux du monde entier pour créer un brillant cycle de chansons instrumentales suivi de l’EP ‘The Distance’ en 2021, un quatre titres euphorique et influencé par le breakbeat, mettant en valeur l’écriture délicate des mélodies, son lyrisme et sa voix apaisante.
