Get lost in the jumbo-sized techno-crazy bass-line groove and ubiquitously full-throttle metallic percussion of new track “Damage” from an artist called Gaist. At just over 9 minutes long the track is a sonic black hole of perceptions and profoundly moody sonic sentiments. Reviewed by Erin Shay.

Get familiar with Small Pond Recordings-representing artist collective Calico, a Brighton progressive instrumentals quintet who are about to launch their alluring fresh-eclectic-vibe self-titled debut EP on October 19th. The group beautifully blends together a mixture of influences on the EP (from jazz, folk and rock to classical and electronica). We’re into the EP’s debut track “Fold A Winning Hand” for its righteously-creative instrumental sound, somber-playful-dynamic and beautifully-varying jazzy horn-fangled moodscapes. Beautiful vibes. If you agree, check out Calico on tour now starting with this Saturday night at London’s The Islington. Reviewed by Erin Shay.

San Fransicso indie-dance/pop/disco producer duo Niteppl (Alton and Saywer) recently released their second EP named “Nu Flesh”. We particularly appreciate the EP’s second track “Whispers” for its sunny-day dreamy-hazy melodic-calm vocals and new-wave-vibe 80’s-sentiment cinematic synth-y ooze. The guys liken themselves to “The Beach Boys meets Justice” and we concur. Great track. Reviewed by Erin Shay.

In February B3 covered top-talent singer-songwriter Zak Abel for his refreshingly-soulful Rudimental-esque Joker-produced debut-EP track called “Alchemy”. We’re completely into his vocals yet again on new track “Say Sumthin” which is Zak Abel’s newest Kaytranada-produced creation which (in our eyes) beautifully expresses his catchy songwriting appeal and rising-star-potential cheery sugary-sweet melodic Rudimental-esque style vocals. Of course we also love the retro-vibe synth-y emotive strings-led ethereal-ambient instrumental handiwork of B3 fave producer Kaytranada. Great collaboration. Reviewed by Erin Shay.
