New Track: Easy For You – Sleeping Lion

Consisting of Nate Flaks and Noah Longworth McGuire, SLEEPING LION unveiled their latest offering, ‘Easy For You’, which follows the release of their 2017 hit, ‘Stop It’ (released via Majestic Casual Records).

SLEEPING LION’s previous releases earned praise from outlets like HillyDilly​, Indie Shuffle​ and The Line of Best Fit, features on Spotify’s Chill Vibes and Electronic Vibes playlists, as well as recent opening slots for acts including Vesperteen, Transviolet and Brasstracks.

‘Easy For You’ is about forward momentum transitioning from remorse to the indignant self-acceptance that marks the conclusion of a break up. In order to shake free of a frustrating split, the duo left Boston to relocate to Los Angeles and returned to a simpler way of songwriting to draw from a previously neglected raw folkiness. Most of their 2016 debut EP, Patient Creature, had been written over Skype, with Flaks in New York and McGuire in Rome​. Creating together gave their music a sense of movement that had only been hinted at before​. SLEEPING LION is ready for the next chapter and to take the world by storm in 2018.​..have a listen.

Song of the Day: High Tide – Caz Aglets

This week, there’s a load of promising upcomers filling up the Song of the Day hotspot and it’s CAZ AGLETS‘ turn to take the limelight with track ‘High Tide’, taking from his album ‘Void’ released in November.

What’s so remarkable is that this guy has written and produced the album before his 18th birthday. When you do have a spare moment, please do check out ‘Void’ and you’d think it was created by someone way beyond his years. ‘High Tide’ is a prime example of the intricate and complex arrangements that’s presented in the album: featuring a tampered downtempo bass, the single is topped off by a vibrant female vocal, giving the production that edgy sensation. ‘High Tide’ is an acquired taste, but it deserves nothing less than pure admiration for the hard work.

There’s more material on the way from this boundary pusher, so stay tuned…for now, have a go at ‘High Tide’.
