Florida-based The S-ft F-cus feels loveably infected with romantic feelings on, ‘This Divine Love’

Taken from his recent 6-track release called ‘Lousy w’ Love‘, The S-ft F-cus shows the kids what a riff should sound like with the dreamy new single that shall have you feeling like you are in another dimension entirely on, ‘This Divine Love‘.

The S-ft F-cus is the solo passion project of Florida, USA-based Australian indie rock veteran, Danny Lee Allen, who makes the kind of music to get your body grooving all night long.

One thing I’ve learnt from some of the fantastic songwriters I’ve worked with is not to waste time pushing directions you’re not 100% sure of. It’s like that old dating mantra, “if it’s not a hell yes, then it’s hell no” meaning I take an idea to its logical conclusion and then promptly move on. As soon as I’m even slightly unsure about a part or lyric, I just leave it and come back.” ~ The S-ft F-cus

With a cruisy-cool mentality that features some of the best guitar skills you might hear all day, The S-ft F-cus shows us this passion project that feels so relaxed, as if there is no point to prove at all. Layered with a festival-like ambience that sends your heart shuddering with excitement, this is a smashing exhibition from an artist who shows us his intent with a really intricate performance up there with the best.

The title is Lousy with Love, which initially sounds like a reference to ‘one who is bad at love’ but it’s actually used in the sense of abundance. It actually comes from lousy hair (as in having lice) which makes it even funnier to me. To have so much love surround you, you’re practically infected with it.” ~ The S-ft F-cus

This Divine Love‘ from the Florida-based Australian rocker The S-ft F-cus leads us into a track that feels like could have been made in the 70s. There is such an aura of calmness here that has you feeling inspired for more, as your eyes widen and you realize that you were actually wrong about that romance you thought would work out. Sung with real intensity and an almost psychedelic vibe of discovery, this is a single made with expert skills and an energy that feels just right.

The Low Highs cut to the core of romantic scorn in their psychedelically dreamy alt-indie single, Don’t You Ever

The South Florida residing alt-indie duo, The Low Highs, have released their eagerly anticipated sophomore single, Don’t You Ever. The mellifluous earworm allows dream pop, indie psych and folk-rock textures to pull together in the atmospherically absorbing release that cuts to the core of romantic scorn.

Don’t You Ever captures the disjointing feeling of realising a relationship was filled with empty promises of perpetuity before exploring the confusion that leaves us questioning every exchange and retracted extension of affection as though our interpersonal history has been rewritten with the utterances of a few words.

The Kraftwerk-y style melodic synths and funky indie disco percussion paired with the hypnotically distorted vocals make exploring those torrid emotions infinitely easier. You’d be hard-pressed to find another up and coming outfit bringing a better aura to the airwaves. It’s almost ironic that a song on empty promises was so promising.

Don’t You Ever premiered on January 21st. You can check it out for yourselves by heading over to YouTube.

Wonderful West Palm Beach folk artist PRD flies free from those dark days on the inspiring anthem ‘Be Yourself’

As she followed her beating heart and moved swiftly away from the engineering job that didn’t love her back, PRD shows us the way to that true self-enlightenment with her latest soothing single all about listening to your all-important intuition on ‘Be Yourself‘.

Priya Renu D’Amico aka PRD, is a soulful indie-folk singer-songwriter who is from sunny West Palm Beach, Florida.

Priya fell in love with songwriting shortly after she started playing guitar at the age of 14. Ever since then she has been obsessed with writing impactful music that will make a difference in the world.” ~ PRD

This is the true story about taking your time to work out what you really want to do in life, as you brush off those naysayers who can’t see what you can. She sings with that beautiful energy throughout this delightful experience and sounds excited about the future, knowing that she made the only decision that was right for her.

With a warm layer of love attached – you feel the genuine kindness of a gifted young woman on a mission – to make that sweet music that is gloriously peaceful, showing others the way to that happy road of self-love.

This song was inspired by her own personal journey of finding her true path in life as a musician, and she hopes it can help others find their own purpose as well.” ~ PRD

Be Yourself‘ from the impressively inspiring West Palm Beach, Florida-based indie-folk singer-songwriter PRD, is such a stirring message you might have to listen to twice. She displays an abundance of courage and desire to better herself, to do what she feels is right inside where it matters. Her soul is now alive and frolicking freely like an inquisitive bird, as she eventually ignored what others told her before. This is a brave soul who took lots of stifling heat for doing what she thought was right, as she wanted to be happy and just sing.

Being truly content is the only way to avoid that caged-up feeling up after all.
