Saneit brings real R&B back with latest EP ‘Automatic’

R &B sensation SANEIT‘s (pronounced Suh-Neat) along-waited EP, ‘Automatic’, is a culmination of clever nostalgic samples from the late seventies right through to the mid-noughties, so expect to hear the familiar sounds of soul/R&B heavyweights, Rose Royce, Michel’le, Mary J Blige, Faith Evans and Bobby V – with the sultry Chicago twang she’s known for.

Throughout the years, Saneit has shown herself to be focused, driven and passionate about honing her gift and this project is the sum of that work. Her voice brings back the style of R&B many people wish was more prevalent in music today, while also providing a contemporary and unique twist to the genre.

Saneit’s confidence and love for her work is a testament to her growth and the control she takes over her creative process. Although, she writes her own music, this project is collaborative; she teams up with songwriters Jean Michael, Trayne Write Hits and Grammy nominated vocal producer, David Je.

So if you’re missing that real R&B, well this mini collection is for you. Have a listen below…

Alt songbird Seyblu shares her pulsating new single, ‘Honest’.

SEYBLU‘s latest offering, ‘Honest’ was initially directed at someone that couldn’t be honest with themselves, even while alone in their thoughts… but as she progresses in writing the single, Seyblu realised that it was a message to herself.

‘Honest’ features Seyblu’s cousin, Eve Parker Finley, who adds the emotive violin strings to the soulful backdrop and the brooding electronic bass, which perfectly adds that level of visceral tension that’s needed to drive the message of the song.

‘Honest’ was released last Friday (23rd June) across various music platforms…why not check it out below…

Song of the Day: Losing My Religion – Theo Tams

Toronto’s THEO TAMS released his take on the R.E.M. single, ‘Losing My Religion,’ on June 1st to coincide with Pride Month.

The artist’s moody and intense rendition of the song has a personal resonance, given his queer identity and the toxic role that religion played in his upbringing. Beginning as a piano ballad, the song develops a darkly electronic tone as it unfurls.

“There are so many members of the LGBTQIA community that have been burned by religion and the hate that is often disguised as ‘Christian love.’” says Tams.

“I was raised in a really strict reformed Christian household where I felt from the get go that who I was at my core was ‘wrong’ and needed to be ‘cured.’ So many lyrics of this song resonated with me; I often felt like I had to choose being my authentic self or push it all down and choose God. It’s such a dangerous and sickening way of growing up.”

The song’s themes extend to Tams’ design choices for the single cover, which he describes as having a ‘Jesus-esque’ look about it.’ The rainbow sunbeam serves as an accent to this religious imagery.

“I’ve always held on to the light of authenticity and truth throughout these moments of darkness and judgement,” Tams adds. Have a listen to Theo’s take on ‘Losing My Religion’ below…
