You love her so much and care about her immensely. After being so close for these months, the cracks are starting to show and frustration has reached fever pitch levels of massive proportions. You feel like she is starting to lose herself in this lock down time and you are worried. Both of you are driving each other up the wall and you need a break. Badly. You need her though and are walking on egg-shells. What will be the outcome of this worrying tale?

New artist William Moore is in paranoid mood with his song ”Exponential”. The pandemic has hit record levels and both him and his lover are both losing it. This is a theme that is so common in 2020 and more of these stories are bound to emerge from the shadows.

This is a catchy pop song that totally sums up the years adventures. The year was supposed to be so much but ultimately was and is an absolute shambles. This is a good track and a new artist is born. Let’s hope that his girlfriend or wife doesn’t hear this otherwise he will be on the couch tonight if he isn’t already.

Stream this track right here on Soundcloud.

LegitWord wonders in with back tingling masterpiece ”Black Ink”

Posted on 2 July 2020

Producer and musician LegitWord has just given us a masterpiece. The beat is so intricate during the track and sneaks up to you. The build is so impressive and the bass settles in to your mind perfectly. I love the soothing vocals and they compliment the message expertly. This has to be a theme track to a series soon, this is clearly cinematic.

”Black Ink” is a mystical marvel that has raised the level here in 2020. This is genre defying and can’t be placed into any box. There is Lo-Fi Hip Hop here with a sprinkling of soul that is quite incredible. One of the best songs of the year without doubt.

You feel like you are perhaps wasting time and you can brush it off from your mind. The smoke blows through your soul and inside you start to open up after the carnage is complete. You start to think clearer and realize that you need to move forth. The time is now.

My goodness. That feeling when you hear a song that grabs at your senses and forces you to lock tightly in? Quite lovely to say the least.

We await the EP that LegitWord has cooked up and ”Perspective” drops on 28th July. Add it to your calendar now.

To find out more about this artist I’d recommend you slide through to Facebook.

Newcastle Rockers Indoor Kids leave no doubt to their brilliance with ”Down”

Posted on 18 June 2020

Ah yes. This is such a quality sound and they are going places. Indoor Kids have a powerful style with incredible production and the band executes the sound like no other.

”Down” is just over 5 minutes and you can’t get enough. Newcastle natives Indoor Kids take us into the unknown with breath-taking precision and rock 2020 into shape with 80’s style music that is timelessly crafted for this lost generation. Get off your phone and turn this up until your speakers shake into shape.

The start of the song is a bit haunting and then we are told to settle down. The band are in control here and they are taking us into another world like Neo in The Matrix. They have built up for this moment and each member knows exactly what they need to do. This is the Champions League final and the boys are lining up for that Free Kick. My body shakes as I anticipate the next build and listen even closer. It’s not often that a band has me jamming like this. Always ready for the fight. This is an act that is breaking through to the very top and they are going to put on one heck of a show.

Taken off new album ”The Great Outdoors, Pt. 1”, ”Down” is a powerfully fused anthem and sits comfortably seated in the front row of majestic music releases from 2020.

Head to the band’s Spotify page to get this single in your head all day.

Artist Eloe reminisces on a one-night stand in his latest release More Than Just A F**k – Rolling

Posted on 28 May 2020

Magnifying the unexpected feelings following a one-night stand, artist Eloe put his reflections into words in his latest release More Than Just A F**k – Rolling.

Playing with synths and new-wave sounds that work out through a smooth background pad, hip hop slow beats design a contour for gentle Soul vocals describing the aftermath of what at first seemed to be lust but ended up being a surprising emotional connection.

Most times it doesn’t have to be love to make two people connect. Some nights that start with a physical instinct can still result in a beautiful empathy that won’t necessarily evolve into a longer relationship but will still endure as a memory to cherish. Something that in a such materialistic world is just so rare.

By combining all of the above, Eloe creates a sensual R&B effort that you can check out for yourself on Soundcloud.
