Weekend

LOST and SOUND weaved an illusory indie pop-rock fantasy with their standout single, Weekend

Posted on 5 August 2023

The Fairfield, CA six-piece alt indie pop outfit, LOST and SOUND, has perfected the art of crafting addictively sticky melodies that effortlessly carry the escapism they deliver via their lyricism.

While the indie landfill pile climbs higher than Everest, LOST and SOUND transcend it all with their assimilation-free sonic fantasies; take their synthy new wave-influenced hit, Weekend for the perfect example. Living forever for the weekend may not be a feasible possibility in tangible reality, but with the meta lyrical phrases and the illusory instrumental arrangements, the romanticism of the notion will reel you in, razor-sharp hook, rhythmic line, and smooth vocal sinker.

To date, Weekend has racked up over half a million streams on Spotify. If their debut album, THE SILVER LINING, contains just a slither of ingenuity in Weekend, LOST and SOUND could easily become one of the biggest bands in Cali in 2023.

Chen Ron shows us what music really means on ‘Weekend’ (feat. MAYU)

Posted on 14 June 2022

Navigating us through the love of something so special that can change lives forever, Chen Ron returns with a brilliant single that will have you taken right into what it’s like to be an independent musician on, ‘Weekend‘ (feat. MAYU).

Chen Ron is an Israel-based RnB/neo-soul artist, music producer, guitarist and pianist who makes that anthem-sounding music that will be stuck in your head for hours.

”The single talks about the importance of following your dreams and doing what you really love, and how it’s more important than earning a high salary or a flashy title.” ~ Chen Ron

Featuring the outstanding vocals of Israeli RnB/soul singer MAYU, Chen Ron is rather spectacular with a special song that is totally honest and features so much groove and delightful vocals. These two organically connected souls combine rather radiantly together, and this is a single which will bring that much-needed grace back into the world to teach us all.

”Chen works with a variety of guest vocalists in his productions and his biggest influences include Anderson .Paak, Robert Glasper, Tom Misch, J-Dilla and Kendrick Lamar.” ~ Chen Ron

‘Weekend‘ (feat. MAYU) from Israel-based RnB artist, music producer, guitarist and pianist Chen Ron is a classy single that shows us deep inside the perspective of someone who has been told to move onto something better paid, despite loving the entire inventive process. Showing us deep inside and into a place that so many try to ignore, this is a reminder that if you are doing what you truly love, all the hard work is rather worth it.

Surely doing what makes you glow inside your spirit is the only way to live life after all?

Moving On Quickly: Ayoka carries herself with oozing confidence on the party-starting ‘Weekend’

Posted on 17 July 2021

With her wonderfully elegant red hair flowing into the gusting wind, Ayoka breathlessly shows us where the fun is at with the bass-thumping new single that is all about the ‘Weekend‘.

Ayoka is a divine healer, impressive multi-instrumentalist, and indie RnB artist from the DMV-area in the USA. She is a music wizard who carefully looks inside the music creation to see the whole journey, to find her true path so that the listener is totally enthralled all the way through this outer body experience.

”From a young age, Ayoka had a passion for dissecting music. While her parents raised her on everything from Red Hot Chili Peppers to Tupac and Sade, her stepfather used to break down all the different elements that go into a jazz song. She soon developed a fascination with picking up instruments, understanding melodies, and breaking down song structures.” ~ Ayoka

Her lyrical ability is there for all to see, as she furiously flows with lots of gushing gusto and true self-belief that she is in charge of her life. Even if things might seem rough with her main lover currently, she shows that there is always another option if you want it badly enough.

”Weekend is about letting go of all your problems once the week has ended. I wanted to make a hype song that pumps me up the way Chief Keef’s music does.” – Ayoka

‘Weekend‘ from the entrancing DMV-based RnB artist Ayoka, is a mind-clearing new track that shows her huge confidence as she drops down low, and has the crowd cheering enthusiastically in the club. She is a ferocious artist who knows what she wants and doesn’t let anything stand in her way. This is a song all about brushing everything negative away, as you only let in the fun vibes to show you the way forward.
