One of the first post rock bands that made me fall in love with the genre was Pelican. This week’s track “Immutable Dusk” came out in 2013 and was an instant favorite. I’ve been diving into some of the music that has inspired me over the last nine years and couldn’t go without sharing this one with you all.
First in Line comes of her debut EP titled ‘A Force To Be Reckoned With’ which explores self-discovery through beautiful melodies and lyrics and touches on a love that one can only wish to experience.
The track isn’t over-produced and merges quite well with 6roady’s effervescent vocals. “Live For” perfectly captures the confusing turmoil that one explores in their 20s – consciously looking for something worth living for. Fusing immaculate confidence with poetic sincerity, 6roady summarizes a growing self-assurance, laced with youthful exuberance. “Live For” is available for all to listen, be sure to do just that!
Whilst much of this album, Kingdoms In Colour, relies on featured artists for their vocal chops, it’s the instrumental interludes which got me hooked. ‘Turnmills’ is a fantastic example of how you can make a track sound electronic without the staple electronic instruments such as synths and drum machines.
DKT (Dis Kind Thing) is a beautiful track by Oxlade which I’m sure you are gonna love, beautiful melody and instrumentation. Enjoy.
This week’s track is “War” by Edwin Starr. He had a handle full of hits and this is one that I’ve always dug and feels totally appropriate with the state of the world. Not only is it a great message but it funks hard and just makes you want to shake it.
I’m SURE SURE you’ll love this cover! A delightfully tasteful cover…
The idea of having something beautiful and profoundly yours ripped away from you is probably the one thing that terrifies anyone in my position more than anything else.
Welcome to this week’s track fever dream featuring mxmtoon. As a rising star from California, her song has a unique harmony with a serendipitous melody.
“…21-year-old producer/multi-instrumentalist/singer Felicity Vanderveen creates her warm, soulful and earthy tunes. Felicity creates music as FELIVAND, marrying the smooth, neo-soul stylings of Jorja Smith and H.E.R with the organic, DIY textures of artists like Still Woozy and The Internet.
Anoushka Shankar, daughter of the legendary Ravi, plays a beautiful Sitar that in Flight soars across land and sea to the roots of Yoga.
“It’s difficult to classify myself in the “typical way” people expect, I feel like with me, you will always get a musical experience, I will always put my heart into the music I make and I will always push the boundaries, I exist like that” – lordkez
