It’s only been three years since WILL INSPIRE entered the hip-hop game… and already he’s made a HUGE impact. The conscious upriser performed at SXSW 2 years straight, headlined numerous music festivals, and opened up for hip-hop heavyweight, Kendrick Lamar.

Now WILL INSPIRE took the next big step and released his first full-length project, Empty Pockets,  which features inspiring and  sit-up-and-take-note lyrics over mainly super-smooth, 90s-inspired chilled hip-hop beats. Definitely worth the attention.

EP Review: Supersize Everything – Futuro

supersize Everything Futuro

 

Daniel Ahlgren, Marcus Dennerstedt and Andreas Säfström -aka- FUTURO – have perfectly signed off the year with their latest release, Supersize Everything.

The EP features the Swedish trio’s contemporary spin on the good old 80’s style synth pop, drawing inspiration from Empathy Test, Royksopp, Chvrches… and maybe a hint of A-Ha. A great addition to any new waver’s music collection.

#TheMustListens: Panorama (check out the video here), Forever Delayed

Supersize Everything is now available on iTunes.

EP Review: Escape – Bella Loka

Bella loka Escape

Originally from Bristol, husband and wife act BELLA LOKA moved to London’s Camden Town to work on their latest project, Escape set for release on 2nd September.

Recorded at Abbey Road Studios, the five-track production features singer/songwriter Tea Boothby’s angelically-light vocals which lures you  into a colourful fusion of 80-esque indie pop and refreshingly-sweet electronic (slightly rock) melodies (well executed by David Boothby).

With the support of loyal fans, funds were raised for Escape through a £10000 Kickstarter campaign…after sampling the EP, It’s very safe to say that this couple did their fans proud.
