Stephen Babcock – “Still Think of You”

April 8, 2022

Born in Buffalo, based out of Nashville, singer/songwriter Stephen Babcock brought great honor to both cities with his latest single “Still Think of You.” The wholesome, hearty, soliloquy has an upbeat melody to it, with a deeper meaning to hold it down. Stephen goes on to say: “The song is about when my first love left Upstate NY and moved to London, leaving me behind.” “Still Think of You” was recorded and produced by William Hinson in Winston-Salem, NC & was the second single Babcock released in 2022; is he gearing up to drop a new project?

Vibropath – “Turning Inside”

April 8, 2022

The light production blanketed over “Turning Inside” by Vibropath has the goldilocks factor of being just right. Rochester-based artist Vibropath, born Frank Marino-Moore, who I originally thought was a band is a tranquil experience to listen to. I could only imagine how laid back and relaxed his live sets are. It’s artists like Vibropath that inspire others to create their very own brand-like delivery when it comes to compiling sounds into symphonies, and that delivery is evidently displayed on “Turning Inside.” Stream it on Spotify and Apple Music Vibropath · Turning Inside

Blanco Tranco – “Devil’s Ivy”

April 7, 2022

2022’s tack of putting one foot in front of the other is here via Blanco Tranco with “Devil’s Ivy.” Get ready to do a lil two step dance with your crush (or by yourself) because these moves come with the song. The zesty four-piece from Melbourne Australia consists of Sophie, Matt, Tiff, and Mark who combine melancholic surf with post-punk sounds. Blanco Tranco is ambitious because they are still relatively fresh off of their five song EP, I’ve Been Dying to Tell You and they’ve already come back with this piping hot single. I don’t know what’s next for Blanco Tranco, but I have a feeling they have something big up their sleeve. Stream it on Spotify and Apple Music Devil’s Ivy by Blanco Tranco

April 7, 2022

With the wind at their backs, Flycatcher soars through the sky on their new track “Sodas in the Freezer.” The original riff laid down dates all the way back to 2017, and after five years, it’s aged like fine wine. The somewhat dark, somber, lyrics and melodies were astonishingly written on the way home from work. Distorted riffs running parallel with clean cut vocals doused in a little reverb make “Sodas in the Freezer” an instant classic; it also features a vintage music video directed, shot, and edited by Kris Khunachak.

Coming all the way from Tokyo, Japan, the four-piece band DYGL spoke volumes on their latest single “Waves.” The DYGL experience is something similar to a beautiful orange sunset somewhere coastal.

April 5, 2022

LA-based singer/songwriter under Carpark Records: Erin Anne (if not already) proved she was far more than just that on latest single “Eve Polastri’s Last Two Brain Cells Have A Debate.” The level of relatability within the little lyrics laid down is astonishing. Erin Anne gave her fans a music video to go along with “Eve Polastri’s Last Two Brain Cells Have A Debate” that has an ending so happy and epic I couldn’t help but smile.

Pressyes – “Years”

April 5, 2022

Pressyes, born René Mühlberger, unleashed a symphony of expression upon the world with their latest single “Years.” The melody within the hook-harking “Years,”  joined by beautiful ad libs, is just one of the many aspects that make Pressyes a top-tier vocalist. The Berlin-based artist is also credited for the phenomenal production throughout the entirety of the track. “Years” came with a music video that was shot on Kodak 16MM with a 1971 Bolex Camera for a certified vintage appeal. Pressyes impressively had a hand in every aspect of the production of the music video, from directing to editing, to solidify the perfectionism within his vision.

talker – “Growing Up”

April 5, 2022

The LA musician talker has built up quite the name for herself. In her own words, Talker is known for “throwing glitter all over my emotions” which is honestly too humble of a statement for her work. The soundtracks she makes should be featured in movies, her song “Growing Up” has so much emotion packaged into its understated but utterly-unique indie rock form. That connection between the artist and their audience is apparent with talker. It’s really liberating to hear from a fellow human being; a message of things not being exactly how you imagined, and figuring out where to go from there. “Growing Up” is the first step in finding the ultimate answer of not always having one.

Virgo Rising – “Headlights (Live at House of Wonders)”

April 5, 2022

Coming Live from the House of Wonders, the Winnipeg-wonders Virgo Rising performed their single “Headlights” and it enhanced the experience of the track tenfold. Seeing each individual band member actively participating and zoned in on the moment painting a lot more vivid of a picture. The uniquely sporadic percussion at the tail-end of the video is unlike any I’ve heard in my lifetime. Single shot camera work and gritty effects thrown over the visual for “Headlights” pushes the lo-fi but organic ambiance Virgo Rising brings with them. Stream the original on Spotify and Apple Music

Coral Collapse – “Symmetries”

April 5, 2022

Rolling in like a fog over the surface of a lake, Symmetries by Buffalonian band Coral Collapse came at the perfect timing. Just as the world begins to open up again, Symmetries oozes the sweet sensation of a new day; not only does it sound like a new morning, but a fresh start with the people you love. Coral Collapse originally banded together in 2015 and have been going strong ever since. They’ve dropped three singles, an EP, and an LP outside of Symmetries… This one is different though. I’m not going to lie, after hearing Symmetries in its entirety, while their other releases served as a great foundation of roots for Coral Collapse, it’s evident that we’re witnessing their “blooming” as a band. They’ve blossomed into a force of dream pop to be reckoned with. The intro track and lead single, “Graves,” features an incredibly wholesome music video shot[...]

Matilda Cole – “Bite Down”

April 4, 2022

“The soundtrack to teenage oblivion” is how upcoming pop artist Matilda Cole describes her catalog… And I’d say that “Bite Down,” the outro of her latest EP The High Dive, is no doubt a testament to that very statement. Iconic lines like “If you’re looking for the church baby, turn around, got an empty hearse and a hole in the ground,” display the edgy pop energy emitting from Matilda Cole’s voice. The nearly four-minute track feels like a two-minute experience due to all of the differentiation in rhythm and timbre throughout. Just about anyone is sure to bob their head and/or sway in the presence of “Bite Down” but if you’re anywhere in between the ages of 15 & 30, Matilda Cole might be your next hero.

Bringing brilliant vocals, catchy guitar hooks, killer percussion, and an energetic bassline, the five piece curates a sonic coffee on the beach. The cover art is very simplistic yet complex for being compiled mostly of dots and lines, giving it a very whimsical yet professional aesthetic. “Cold Hawaii” was brought to the public on March 18th 2022. Do yourself a favor; jump higher, run faster, and love harder while jamming “Cold Hawaii” by Les Gold. Stream it on Spotify and Apple Music
