Andre Meneses has put his own Alex Clare’s Dub Pop hit “Too Close”

Posted on 10 April 2020

Pop hits don’t get much more anthemically infectious than Alex Clare’s Brit-Award-snagging 2011 single Too Close. Well, apart from when emerging artists such as Andre Meneses put their own spin on the sound and project even more soul into the vocals.

Andre Meneses’ slightly whiskey-soaked vocals create an alchemic contrast against the instrumental progressions which remain as effervescent as ever while giving the track a brand new Indie Blues Rock almost grungy edge.

Any fans of Calvin Harris’ sultrily scratchy vocals will easily become enamoured by Andre Meneses’s sublimely serrated cover.

Up and coming artist Nolai’s single Stay is the aural evolution RnB has been waiting for

Posted on 22 March 2020

Up and coming RnB artist Nolai blew us away with their bar-setting single Without You. Their latest futuristically-romantic single Stay has given us another reason to get excited about the commercial potential which lingers in their inspired approach to EDM RnB Pop.

The vibrantly explorative soundscape may be a far cry from what you can expect from traditional RnB, and so are Nolai’s fiery nuanced vocals. Yet, accessibility still remains the essence of the melodically infectious single.

Even though there’s a sure enough injection of attitude within the mix, Stay is the perfect introduction to Nolai’s ability to leave you aurally endeared from the moment you hit play.

Posted on 23 February 2020

Future Pop, Electronica, RnB, and Trap all synergistically combine in the latest single “Under the Sun” from Andrew Michael Meador featuring Victoria Priest & Seaux Chill.

While the experimental track never allows you to anticipate just where the Future Pop pioneer will take the soundscape next, the eclectically dynamic hit will keep you hooked from the prelude to the outro. The Rap verses explosively tear through the soothing RnB female vocals. Yet, that’s nothing compared to the seamless instrumental switch-ups in the production.

You’ll have to wait a little longer before you can check out Under the Sun featuring Victoria Priest and Seaux Chill. In the meantime, you can head over to Andrew Michael Meador’s SoundCloud and check out their earlier releases.
