New single « All Done »

Spotify

The first single released from the upcoming debut album is the title-track, « All Done. » This emotional introduction to the album references overcoming a particular period in one’s life that was exceptionally challenging.

GRAYtheband

is an Edmonton-based alternative, neo-soul, R&B project fronted by multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Gray Ford and a cast of rotating artists. GRAYtheband results from traditional instrumentation mingling with modern production forming an unfiltered yet refined take on the genre.

In an effort to honour the Edmonton music scene, Ford has recently recorded a long-awaited debut album,

All Done

– a poignant look at the insidious nature of modern society, relationships, and the complexities of self-preservation. With an overarching theme of love and disparity, the album will resonate with listeners from all walks of life as we navigate this world, conquering the ups and downs.

The first single released from the upcoming debut album is the title-track, « All Done. » This emotional introduction to the album references overcoming a particular period in one’s life that was exceptionally challenging. For Ford, it touches on a period of his life where he put everything on hold to support his family.

The band’s polished, yet raw approach complements Ford’s warm and melismatic vocal style, capturing a sedately powerful sound. Warm piano melodies, echoing instrumentation, and soulful velvet tones set the backdrop for this stunning track as Ford sings about maneuvering through turmoil. The songwriter confides, “I was closing a chapter of

place

and

time

with this song. Since showing others, folks seem to associate the lyrics and general emotion of the song with their individual trying – and sometimes traumatic – experiences that they have endured.” The repetitive line, “all done,” offers an encouraging and supportive statement of safety and affirmation. Ford’s vulnerability acts as validation and support for listeners, giving them comfort and reminding them that they are never alone.

With the upcoming release of the highly-anticipated album

All Done

, GRAYtheband is sure to be on everyone’s radar.

L’artiste électro pop Chaild se confie dans son nouvel EP « URGENT CARE »

Chaild

Nouvel EP « URGENT CARE »

Spotify

CHAiLD est un jeune artiste electro-pop en plein essor, né au Luxembourg et actuellement basé à Bruxelles. Sa voix unique, apaisante mais intense, vous saisit et vous emmène dans son univers mélancolique. Inspiré par des artistes tels que Troye Sivan, Sam Smith, Julia Michaels ou Mø, l’artiste crée son propre style de pop agréable, dans lequel il intègre ses propres racines italiennes. CHAiLD est une voix générationnelle pour les jeunes LGBTQ+ en quête d’expression de soi.

À seulement 25 ans, l’artiste a déjà ajouté de nombreuses réalisations remarquables à son palmarès depuis le début de sa carrière au Luxembourg en 2019, telles que ses premières parties pour ses idoles comme Dean Lewis et Mahmood ou ses différentes performances dans de nombreux festivals tels que Sonic Vision Festival (LUX) ou Dockville (DE).

Le jeune artiste vient de faire son retour avec l’EP « Urgent Care », écrit à une période où il se sentait impuissant et où il utilisait l’écriture comme moyen de faire face à l’anxiété. L’EP est une exploration puissante et vulnérable du parcours de l’artiste vers l’acceptation de soi et la guérison. À travers des paroles honnêtes et des mélodies émouvantes, CHAiLD partage sa prise de conscience que la vulnérabilité n’est pas une faiblesse mais plutôt un moyen de se connecter avec les autres et avec soi-même.

Le titre phare  »

Urgent Care

 » donne le ton pour l’album, avec CHAiLD exposant ses luttes et reconnaissant son besoin d’aide. Ce thème découle tout au long de l’album, alors que l’artiste plonge dans ses traumatismes passés et la douleur qu’il porte depuis trop longtemps.

Dans l’ensemble, « Urgent Care » est un EP brut et émotionnel qui invite les auditeurs à rejoindre CHAiLD dans son voyage vers la découverte de soi et la guérison. À travers sa musique, le chanteur nous rappelle qu’il est normal de ne pas toujours se sentir bien et que demander de l’aide est un acte courageux et nécessaire.

“

« Urgent Care » est ma façon de m’ouvrir à moi-même et aux autres. Tout au long de ma vie, j’ai pensé que la vulnérabilité était un défaut et que montrer ma faiblesse invitait les gens à me blesser. Cependant, maintenant, je sais que j’ai le droit de dire aux gens que je ne vais pas bien. Il est acceptable de s’effondrer et d’accepter que le monde semble parfois juste un peu trop difficile à gérer. Alors, à partir de maintenant, j’essaierai de guérir de la douleur que je porte en moi. Et surtout, au lieu de le faire seul, je demanderai de l’aide. Oui, j’ai besoin de soins urgents.

Edna Louise shares her new single ‘Lost and Alone’

Edna Louise

New single ‘Lost and Alone’

Spotify

London-based French singer-songwriter Edna Louise shares her new single ‘

Lost and Alone

’, out everywhere now.

Naming artists like Jamiroquai, Joss Stone and Jorja Smith as her main influences, Edna draws from her combined inspirations to create her own distinctive neo-soul/pop sound. Working with London-based producer Tony Sage (Celine Love, Cindy BB), the track features a lush, atmospheric production that perfectly complements Edna captivating vocals and her ability to weave together soulful melodies with poignant lyrics. Showcasing her prowess as a songwriter, the track explores the complexities of family dynamics.

Speaking of the track, she says,

“This track is all about the importance of recognising and addressing toxic family dynamics. I got back from what was supposed to be a holiday at my parents, and felt even more drained than actually being on my own in London.. I left home when I was 18yo to study and realised, every time I was going back there, all the toxic dynamics of my family and how I would not fit in this context anymore.

Cherishing our family shouldn’t be at the expense of our own happiness/sanity. If toxicity is present, then taking some distance becomes necessary. I hope the track can provide comfort and healing to anyone who needs it. »

Originally from Nice in the French Riviera, Edna grew up surrounded by music. A singer, songwriter and guitarist, she was raised listening to everything from Brazilian music to Disco/Funk, Rock‘n’Roll and Soul. Edna saw HYLEEN, a neo-soul artist also from the French Riviera, perform in Monaco and that was her moment of realisation that she wanted to create soul and jazz inspired music. Moving to London shortly after and experiencing London’s rich music scene, she fell in love with the genre even more.

Studying at BIMM London, Edna quickly put together a band composed of Francisco Parada (guitar), Loucas Papa (drums), Davide Di Camillo (bass) and Tony Sage (keys) and has performed in renown venues such as Notting Hill Art Club, The Ned and Zebrano Bars.

‘Lost and Alone

’ is the first track from her upcoming debut EP, set for release later this year.

Dazzling House DJ Florian Picasso Releases ‘Make Me Dance’

Dazzling DJ & Showmen

Florian Picasso

Releases

‘Make Me Dance’

Single

Stream / Download

RELEASE DATE: 14 April 2023

LABEL: La Californie Musique / 100th Meridian Music

Stage-loving House DJ and producer Florian Picasso released his latest single

‘Make Me Dance’

on the 14th of April via his heritage-inspired imprint, La Californie Musique. Following his recently shared records

‘

Safari’

and

‘

What’s The Next Move’

, the single is the newest addition to a streak of infectious releases. Along the way, the artist has premiered on Deep House Sweden, CLASH Magazine, and Dancing Astronaut, earning him new support for his collection, which includes features by noteworthy music magazines DJ Mag, EDM.com, We Rave You, Your EDM, EARMILK, Mixmag Asia, and Forbes.

Picasso is no stage name, Florian is the great-grandson of the mighty Pablo Picasso. He recently paid tribute to his great grandfather in the most artistic and innovative way with some exceptional shows in the unique location, the Picasso Villa ‘La Californie’.

Florian is writing his own story with his own signature, never limiting his creative mind. He has also previously collaborated with hip-hop star NAS and famed singer-songwriter John Legend on the single

‘Tomorrow’

, helping him reach 120 million streams on Spotify and Youtube.

Devilishly infectious, Florian Picasso’s latest Tech House banger is attention-grabbing from the start. A Daft Punk-esque vocoder kicks in, filling it with charisma. Chord stabs add that extra something, while shakers shimmy and shine to the beat of Florian’s groove, a flavour similar to the work of Tchami and Malaa.

Florian Picasso details the ins and outs of the single:

“Making this record was really fun as I wanted to have a catchy line that calls for a dance. ‘Make me dance on the floor’ is simple yet very effective. I call it a hybrid record since there’s a section with heavy bass that leads into a beautiful piano melody throughout the track.”

MARLOW shares his new single « Over »

MARLOW

New single « Over »

Spotify

MARLOW is a project headed by Eastbourne singer, songwriter and model, Freddie Marlow. Creating a sonic world which is purely about a feeling, the music speaks from the depths of his heart and is delivered with a hint of mystique. Although led by Freddie, MARLOW is still a completely collaborative effort, with a band of musicians made up of Angus (Guitar), Seb (Bass), Archie (Synth) and Liam (Drums) who work closely alongside Freddie on everything. Together MARLOW sucks listeners in through a dynamic surge and zesty, modern approach. With an infectious alt, pop rock sound and emotional, heartfelt lyrics, MARLOW provides you with a soundtrack to help get through the ups and downs of life, alleviate sadness and reflect on everything we experience as humans.

Off of the upcoming EP,

Home

, due later this year, MARLOW unveils “Over”. A hugely uplifting song that aims to paint a picture of someone trying to hold on to something/someone too tight and hoping the other doesn’t let go. “Over” features an incredibly catchy chorus and inspiring atmosphere. “It’s a plea to another to hold on,” confides Freddie. The single is also accompanied by an ingenious video directed by William Pope.

Offering some backstory to this track, Freddie explains, « This song was inspired by real events in my relationship/relationships. There are times when communication breaks down and I feel like at any moment the other person may fall through my hands. In the verses I’ve tried to paint the picture of myself looking at someone and searching for all the things I would like to say, but as I try to say them I feel as if my hands are tied. It’s not a depressing song, it’s uplifting and the pounding drums and shiny synths reflect the fight. The simplistic lyrics will allow the listener to think, reflect and feel. »

Also off of the EP is “I’m Not Leaving”, a song which shimmers with an echoing guitar line, warm, emotional vocals and a driving, uplifting chorus. Emphasising the importance of being there for the one you love, Freddie shares, “This track was inspired by my girlfriend going through a tough time. It’s basically me saying, ‘I’m here for you no matter what’”.

Speaking further on his writing process, Freddie reveals, “I’m heavily inspired by emotional moments in film and TV. I try to visualise all of my songs as though they are being played behind an emotional scene (sad, happy or dramatic) in a movie or TV show. I’m also inspired by relationships; in particular my own, and enjoy writing emotionally driven songs that describe my feelings toward a situation”.

MARLOW has had the privilege of performing at The Isle of Wight Festival and has also received support from the likes of

Wonderland Magazine

and

Earmilk

, as well as national radio play on John Kennedy ́s Radio X show. They will be returning to The Isle of Wight Festival River Stage this year. With the upcoming release of the highly anticipated EP, as well as a headline show at The Old Blue Last in London on May 19th, 2023 is set to be an exciting year for MARLOW.

EARMILK

“This track gets you into the groove with starry synths and a blood-pumping drum beat that will attract the young and the wild.”

WONDERLAND

“Featuring thick instrumentation, laden with the thump of the drum and the surge of electric guitars. It is instantly planted firmly in the indie genre with its infectiously relatable narrative, making the project all the more special.”

Roskamala shares her new video « Chameleon » Courtney Knott.

Roskamala & Courtney Knott

New video « Chameleon »

Roskamala shares, « Chameleon’ is the most deeply intense song I have ever written. I wrote it when I was questioning whether the life I had was meant for me, imagining what life would be like if I was truly free, physically & spiritually. This song is about the inner war to be free. You find yourself in the most unhappy place, unsure of how you got there or how to begin the fight. » The poignant music video touches upon the suffering caused from domestic abuse.

Singer/songwriter, producer, screenwriter and actor Roskamala has made her mark as a creative visionary with her thoughtful musical releases full of evocative storytelling wrapped in a unique sonic fusion. Born and raised in Thailand, Roskamala became an actress and fashion TV host. Realizing that her dream was to pursue music full time, the songwriter moved to the United States and teamed up with acclaimed Grammy award-winning producers Ghian Wright (Paul McCartney, Coldplay, Janet Jackson, Foo Fighters) and Robert L. Smith (Lady Gaga, David Bowie, U2) for her debut EP.

Roskamala’s new EP entitled

truth she told

, is an existential narrative on the trials and tribulations of what it is like to be human and how our experiences shape who we are. She confides, “We all have our own stories to tell of good times and bad times. We tend to focus too much on the bad times, but one thing I believe in is hope. You will find this in every one of my songs if you have the right attitude and learn from our shared experiences. Life can be tough but we all have the power to make it better and create a wonderful future.” Roskamala brilliantly relays these extreme emotions in relatable narratives, touching the listener and inspiring them to try and find hope and understanding that they’re not alone in every struggle. Sonically,

truth she told

features a variety of genres including dark pop, R&B, rock, and even soul for an intoxicating collection of songs.

Leading single “Kiss Me Amnesia” is a dark alt-pop song that delivers a stirring message about the ghosts of the past and the burdensome effects of unhealed trauma. The single explores the concept of two co-existing worlds, Reality and Amnesia World, that connect the past and present through a karmic bond where former relationships, repressed feelings and damaging patterns all intertwine in a fateful experience. She confides, “The message is that if you don’t make peace with your past it will always haunt your future reality.” Euphoric and moody, “Kiss Me Amnesia” features intimate vocals that glide effortlessly over cinematic dipped electronic soundscapes for a beautifully raw and introspective musical journey.

“Loving Mess featuring Lia Apa” is a vibrant and colorful pop anthem about accepting your own faults and moving confidently in the game of love. With soul-drenched soaring vocals over bright kaleidoscopic soundscapes, “Loving Mess” is a playful and teasing song about daring someone to entice us. Roskamala confides the single, « was written from acceptance and self-awareness. You are what you think and what if we can surprise ourselves with a new discovery and break the cycles by thinking differently. Seeing our flaws positively. What if we fail 1000 times and 1001st time we succeed? It’s worth failing, isn’t it? Instead of worrying about the future or our issues, the song turns it into a game of love. »

“Beautiful Disease” is a slow-burning passionate song all about love and obsession and “being in a situation where you are trapped…you want to get out but you can’t,” confides the singer. Roskamala’s seductive honey-dipped vocals flow over intoxicating melodies for a vulnerable song about yearning and escape.

“Out of The Maze” is a song all about living against the norms. With decadent electronic pop landscapes under colliding melodies full of heart, “Out of The Maze” is a dance pop banger sure to entice with every note.

“Chameleon” is a gorgeous ballad full of soulful melodies and delicate piano. The track is all about the relatable theme of being a people pleaser and being trapped in a situation to where one looses their identity. Roskamala confides, « I wrote it when I was questioning whether the life I had was meant for me, imagining what life would be like if I was truly free, physically & spiritually. This song is about the inner war to be free. »

A true artist, Roskamala is dynamic and mult-faceted. Her debut album is imaginative and creative, capturing the essence of love, loss and new beginnings.

Ferielle présente son nouveau clip « JETER UN SORT »

Ferielle

1er EP l’eau qui dort

Sortie le 12/05/2023 chez Finalistes

Après nous avoir régalés avec

Face à Face

et

Grand Ecran

,

Ferielle

dévoile son nouveau single aussi rock qu’iconoclaste

JETER UN SORT

. Ce titre à l’énergie contagieuse met en scène la voix, un cri qui se transforme en rire, passant de la mélancolie au machiavélisme. Voilà une chanson écrite seule par cette musicienne qui en fait une pièce de théâtre à sa démesure, un chef d’œuvre d’auto-dérision à écouter intégralement pour en saisir la progression.

«

J’avais envie de faire un clip rigolo à regarder autant qu’à faire

» a explique

Ferielle

. «

Propriétaire d’un master en dramaqueen, j’adore ridiculiser ma tristesse pour passer à travers. Me mettre en scène en train de boire de l’eau de javel, me noyer sous un verre de vin ainsi qu’être menaçante avec un diadème et un couteau, c’est le meilleur moyen que j’ai pour rire au lieu de pleurer toutes les larmes de mon corps

. »

Ce nouveau clip annonce la sortie du premier EP six titres de

Ferielle

qui sort le 12 mai et s’intitule

l’eau qui dort

. On y retrouve le titre

Dis-moi où on va

que l’on a pu entendre dans la troisième saison de la série Emily In Paris.

Autrice, compositrice, interprète, Ferielle tend des pièges à la pop et se revendique tout autant des Wombats, The Hives ou The Vaccines que de Maggie Rogers ou King Princess. Atypique autodidacte, elle imite les grandes voix du pop rock dans sa chambre de petite fille réservée, raconte ses journées à son poster géant d’Eminem, danse sur la pop de Madonna et Elton John, tout en apprenant la guitare des Beatles.

Son premier titre Grand Écran est sorti il y a deux ans, fruit de sa rencontre à Toronto avec les membres du groupe indie-pop Exsonvaldes : Simon Beaudoux et Martin Chourrout, complices de son EP l’eau qui dort. Un journal intime qui tient tout autant de celui de Bridget Jones que de la pensée du poète autrichien Rainer Maria Rilke, et annonce une nouvelle formation en power trio pour la chanteuse sur scène, guitare, basse, batterie, le Nirvana….

Jamais, est-ce une douce chanson d’amour ? On se prépare au coup de genou… Le synthétique punk, Face à Face donne aussi envie de danser en lançant des coups de pied.

Quant à Jeter un sort, le plus iconoclaste, de ce premier disque, avec sa structure punk-rock, doux couplets sur refrains énervés, il met en scène la voix, un cri qui se transforme en rire, et passe de la mélancolie au machiavélisme.

Dis-moi où on va est véritable zapping d’influences. Le titre est si coloré qu’il s’est posée naturellement sur les images de la série Emily in Paris.

N’oublions pas, l’irrésistible refrain de Riviera, petite perle de chanson aigre douce, sensuellement agressive portée par un riff efficace de guitare et une production en dentelle. Un premier disque éclectique et électrique, on aurait tort de ne pas se méfier de “l’eau qui dort.”

Dea Doyle shares her new single “Over You”

Dea Doyle

New single “Over You”

Spotify

“Over You” narrates leaving a relationship, feeling like you no longer need anyone. Featuring warm honey vocals which glide over a punchy drumline and jangly melodic guitars, « Over You » delivers an overall gritty edge.

Dea Doyle is a singer/songwriter from West London. Born into a household of music, Dea always knew she wanted to be an artist, having written her first song at just nine years old. Inspired by the likes of Carole King, Haim, Fleetwood Mac and Hall & Oates, she offers quick-witted lyrics about life, love and heartbreak, yet always with a memorable chorus.

Her latest single “Over You” narrates leaving a relationship, feeling like you no longer need anyone. The songwriter confides, “I wrote this song at a time in my life where I felt liberated, thinking if I can get over someone I once loved then maybe I’ll never need anyone ever again. At the very end of the song I do flip the idea on its head and question whether I truly am over them, but on a whole it’s about feeling emotionally detached and regaining my independence.”

Beginning with raw snippets of background sounds of children playing, “Over You” features Dea’s impressive, warm honey vocals which glide over a punchy drumline and jangly melodic guitars delivering an overall gritty edge. Channeling 90’s rock/pop artists including Alanis Morrisette and Cheryl Crow, “Over You” emits a similar grungy, angsty sound.

Hoping to encourage listeners to leave toxic relationships that are no longer serving you, Dea wants you to know there’s always better out there. Dea expresses, “On a whole I would like my music to celebrate women in particular and urge them to be unapologetic for who they are and just to have fun really.”

With a couple of releases under her belt, and as an active performer around London, Dea Doyle is set for an exciting 2023.
