Danny Kuttner Shares Alt-Soul Single, ‘Chasing Myself’ + Announces New EP.

Tel Aviv based artist DANNY KUTTNER shares new single ‘Chasing Myself’, alongside announcing her brand new EP ‘Purple’ to be released via Kartel Music Group.

Born in Amsterdam and raised in Israel, Danny steps into the spotlight with a smooth and soulful track influenced by ECM’s contemporary jazz and 90s neo-soul, all whilst blending laid-back organic tones with left-field electronic production. ‘Chasing Myself’ sees Danny Kuttner talking about very raw and intimate life situations whilst her self-production has beautifully captured the deep meanings behind her lyrics. Combining a variety of synths and live instruments such as trumpets, classic guitar and bass, this track not only shows off her talent but also her attention to detail beyond the recording process.

Talking about the track Danny explains: “Chasing Myself was written when I was in a loving relationship and knowing how important it is to have my time alone. There was a point where I lost myself and got a harsh mirror, and I wanted to write about that experience.

I feel there are so many love songs, where I wanted to create a song about a different side of loving someone. About being alone inside of a relationship, bringing myself time of nourishments and self love. It brought me back the ability to truly give love to somebody else”

Danny Kuttner’s new single ‘Chasing Myself’ is out now alongside its music video and is taken from the forthcoming EP ‘Purple’. Watch the video for ‘Chasing Myself’ below…

Song of the Day: Dropping Bombs – Drywater (ft. Teddy Gramz)

Upcoming producer/rapper/DJ DRYWATER injects some much needed energy to blast away those Monday blues with track appropriately titled, ‘Dropping Bombs’, where seriously gutsy hip-hop beats meets the bounce of the trap and intermittent dubstep drive.

Hailing from Israel, Drywater shown interest in music from the age of seven, experimenting with old software and learning the process of making music. With a lot of experience and productions he made for other artists in his pocket, he decided that he wants to run his own brand and project which is of course named Drywater…So expect a trail of blaming joints from this upriser this year!

Get the taste of his work and check out ‘Dropping Bombs’…

Song of the Day: Gidon Schocken – Sunn (feat. Afik Doari)

Born in the USA now residing in Tel Aviv, electronic artist GIDON SCHOCKEN has shared his track ‘Sunn’, featuring Afik Doari alongside its idiosyncratic music video.

The single has already racked up over 50,000 streams and he has received support from the likes of Music News, Essentially Pop and Neu Futur. Citing influences from acts such as Massive Attack, The Prodigy, The Chemical Brothers, DJ Shadow, Lorn, and Throwing Snow, Schocken’s sound is reminiscent of the trip-hop beats of Portishead while Doari’s vocals verge on a parallel to the smokey breathings of Lana Del Ray.

Speaking of the track Schocken explains: ‘For me ‘Sunn’ is about getting stuck in behavioural loops – sometimes we don’t realize at first that we’re going through one of these, but eventually we can learn to detect them, move through and release ourselves from them. The song features lyrics and vocals by Afik Doari, I’ve always been a fan of her unique accent, vocal colour and style, she really brought the track together.

The video, directed by Stephan Stelman, centres around a girl sitting at a dining table with her parents. She loses herself for a few moments and is soon stuck in an ever-changing loop. Throughout this, she’s seen going into her own little world, where she begins to learn, discover and try to free herself.’

New Music Video: Late Bloomer – Yotam Mahler

Later Bloomer

Israeli singer & producer  YOTAM MAHLER has recently unveiled a video to his 90s soul-inspired/orchestral single, Late Bloomer, taken from his debut EP,  What Is Your Art?

The visual for his latest releases is a live performance with a string quartet and Yotam’s band- filmed in his home in Tel Aviv-Jaffa. The 19th century house near the Mediterranean Sea was originally designed for an European ambassador and later owned by a prize-winning Israeli painter. He describes his home as an inspiring place to live. Wall-to-wall paintings and high ceilings; a pastoral Middle Eastern castle in the city,“it feels like stepping into a museum”
