Hook-driven electro pop-beats accompany a warm and impassioned Scandinavian voice as Copenhagen-based duo YOUNG TIGER (aka Emma and Rasmus) make their debut with their striking single ‘When You Leave’.
A lyrical universe is set for discovery as Swedish-Danish Emma maps out, word-by-word, the factors coming into play in the relations between lovers, delivering a melancholic, yet hopeful lyrical search of making sense of a world where love is a game and words are often wrongfully interpreted, leaving us in longing and despair.
YOUNG TIGER was founded in a loft in New York in October last year. While Rasmus spent his teens playing punk music before he started producing, the enchanting vocal capabilities of Emma were laying their roots within the jazz and folk scenes. However their collision course was on track and when they finally impacted, they joined forces to create undeniably catchy music laced with cinematic and melancholic elements.
Now set to make their debut to the world, YOUNG TIGER collaborate with the Danish producer Simon Littauer and British songwriter Wolfie for the mesmerizing ‘When You Leave’.
SUB BLUE, shares another slice of his life with ‘Teen No More’, produced by acclaimed US producers A.V and Sir Dylan
‘Teen No More’ features minimalist electronic R&B production topped with emotive vocals by the young Alt-R&B prospect, as he explores the issues of growing into early ‘adulthood’ and everything that brings with it.
Speaking of his latest release, SUB BLUE said: “I wrote ‘Teen No More’ about the fear of growing up and having to accept full responsibility for everything we do. [As teens] We often live our life not really thinking or knowing what can happen next but we have the confidence to know we are going to make things happen. That’s the kind of theme here”
Taking his name from his self-described style of music, “suburban blues”, Sub Blue offers a fresh take on chilled out, alternative introspective R&B. The visuals for his past effort, ‘Hype Like Supreme.’ was named Music Video of the Month back in January by NEW LEASE MUSIC.
