The latest from CO artist STéLOUSE is the 90’s/new wave house sounds of “Lovers” which features newcomer vocalist BRAVE. “Lovers” plies a bit of a different dimension of STéLOUSE’s style where the main groove of the track is more the driver (the vocal and drum track working in a symbiotic way as one larger instrument) and the palette of sound is more dance-y. We’re into it. Check out “Lovers” and look for more from STéLOUSE soon.
Melvv has had an incredible year. From hitting number one on Spotify with his easy-listening track “Vibe” to performing side by side with Autograf and Goldroom, Melvv has accomplished a ton, and his latest track, “Not Me” (feat. Two Feet) is no different. This catchy song produces smooth and smokey vocals that feel refreshing. Melvv takes a different approach to this track while still staying true to his roots. Check out this fresh tune.
Steve James and RKCB return with a future-laden blissful new tune called “In My Head”. When I noticed it recieved a Kwon remix treatment, I knew I had to give it a listen and was pleased by the unique sound design and vibes. Stop by SoundCloud for more. Enjoy.
Australian pair North Elements and Wayfarer collaborate on new track “Break” with Denitia (from “Divided” duo Denitia and Sene). The producing team select for a warm pads of deep in the mix synths as the frame for Denitia’s quieting but no less potent vocal. Spin “Break” below.
Two of our favorite emerging artists out of Australia Kllo and Mall Grab link up for an after hours remake of “Walls To Build”, from Kllo’s “Well Worn” EP. Kllo will play North American dates with Rufus Du Sol later this month and into December including December 4th at Multiply in L.A.
Denver producer STéLOUSE links up with B3SCI Records alum Nick Leng and his out-of-this-world vocal prowess for great new rhythm-driven track “Been So Long” for Casablanca Records.
Out today from 20-year old producer Flybear is “Lies”, the second track from his forthcoming debut EP “Night Hike”. On “Lies”, which follows follows breakthrough song “Soon…”, Flybear excels through a FlyLo-esque threading of organic instrumentation and grooves within the idiom of state-of-the-genre bass music. Flybear’s particular iteration of that blend sets apart from the greater majority of his beats/bass music peers, e.g. “Lies” sounds fresh and dynamic vs. is tired/blatant Youtube stream-hunting. We dig Flybear and we dig “Lies” which is available to spin above now via B3 Premiere. Lies is available now on Big Beat.
Kultur is one of my all time favorite artists. This time, he’s teamed up with Jessel Alejo, a talented vocalist, and crafted the track, “Unravel.” From start to finish, this track is pure beauty. Enjoy.
Artist/producer Figgy teams with Body Language singer Angelica Bess on kinetic new 80’s boogie-powered “Take It Back”. Featuring Figgy’s melodic 80’s R&B-influenced production and a cool float-on-top the groove vocal from BL’s Angelica Bess, “Take It Back” marks a new pop songwriting turn for the producer (and we’re into it). “Take It Back” is available for your streaming pleasure below.
The Denver-based production maven STéLOUSE first new track in many months on Andrew Paley-featuring “Let Go”. “Let Go” sounds in its production unlike just about anything out right now (check that complex bit of instrumental meshing between 0:50-1:10) and the big-sounding track has a fitting vocal complement in singer Paley’s soaring melodic choices. Stream “Let Go” below.
This remix of Tanis’ “Blackout” by Albuquerque’s rising synth pop act, Memoryy recently caught my ear. The tune take’s the original’s elegant vocals and accentuates them with melodic synths and feel-good energy to create an uplifting atmosphere. If you dig the sound, definitely check out Memoryy’s other work as the artist seems to be cultivating a strong style.
