Today’s song is Release/Repeat by British four-piece rock band THE FIREFLYS. The single is set for release on 26th May.

I remember reviewing the Runcorn rockers’ 2013 album, Embers of the Autumn on Nothing But Hope and Passion (NBHAP) Music Magazine and it’s SO intriguing to see what they have been up to….

Since the release of Embers of the Autumn (5th August), THE FIREFLYS played at, O2 Academy Liverpool, their biggest biggest headline to date, as well as enjoying the media attention. The morning after their performance at the O2, they played a live set in the BBC Merseyside studio and also earned a double page spread in one of the biggest publications near their home town, The Liverpool Echo.

Embers Of The Autumn entered the iTunes Chart at #8 upon hours of its release, and entered the Radio Caroline Chart at Number 35 and is currently at #17. The single Hummingbird was played on BBC introducing by Dave Monks prior to the release of the LP.

As I was typing out their achievements, It left a tear in my eye (don’t laugh!)

Moving swiftly on… have a listen to Release/Repeat. Their trademark of that easy-cruising rock will be added to their ever-expanding list of achievements. If you’re really digging the track, show your appreciation and say hi to them at @thefireflys.

Song of the Day: Moonlight Anime – Orrin Campbell

Today song is Moonlight Anime by ORRIN CAMPBELL.

A freshman at New York University, the Parisian hip-hop artist is sure not afraid of experimenting with samples to create a collection of well produced, tripped-out (at times sped up) tracks…just check out Moonlight Anime. If you look up innovation in the dictionary, you’ll probably see this guy’s name! A true trendsetter.

Feeling the track? Well you can check out his album, Nocturnal.
