EP Review: Poets Of The Dark Scrolls – Redd Tunes

After claiming the blog’s Album of the Month title with previous EP, ‘The Sickness’, REDDTUNE bounces right back with his latest set, ‘Poets Of The Dark Scrolls.’

Featuring yet another stellar lineup, ‘Poets Of The Dark Scrolls’ continues to delve into keeping Britcore alive, by bringing on the laid-back boom-bap vibe…and a few extras thrown in, which includes a boisterous, reggae-fused introduction, a guitar-drenched production plus a straight-up urban forceful drive that ends the set on a high.

Although REDDTUNE remains loyal to his beloved subgenre of hip-hop, ‘Poet Of The Dark Scrolls’ sees London producer/rapper and his army of collaborators go at the deep end and really experiment with various genres that could potentially appeal to a wider audience.

New Track: Switch Up – Marcelle Adrianna (ft. Monique Amarylis)

Vocal powerhouse and ever rising R&B talent MARCELLE ADRIANNA delivers her latest soulful single ‘Switch Up’ featuring Monique Amarylis.

‘Switch Up’ comes off the back of her spellbinding EP ‘THE PROLOGUE’ which unearthed a handful of tracks that grabbed the attention of global gatekeeper to R&B, DJ Ace, who supported Marcelle on his BBC Radio 1Xtra show. The EP also saw Pride Magazine highlight her as their ‘One to Watch’ whilst the likes of Neon Music stated that she “deserves to be heard by millions of people”. She has previously performed alongside the 1975 and collaborated with Melissa Steel, so it is safe to say she is ticking a lot of boxes.

Delving into feel-good, old-school R&B goodness MARCELLE ADRIANNA showcases her signature riffs and succulent harmonies as nostalgic and contemporary flavours twist into a genuine R&B sound. With a bouncy backdrop, Marcelle and Monique, who are good friends beyond the studio, showcase their chemistry and put their real life conversations to life, providing an honest insight into the dynamics of relationships.

Born and raised in Toronto, Monique is another star in the making. Last year marked the release of her debut offering ’Falling in Love Again’ and ‘Switch Up’ is the follow-up single, which sees the two talents vocals effortlessly entwining…check it out below…

Song of the Day: Run – A.M. SNiPER

Following on from what was an exceptional 2018 that saw the rapper build over 1.5 million fans, over quarter of a million hours of streaming and reaching in to 60 countries with his music, A.M. SNiPER returns with his first drop of 2019, ‘RUN’.

With Ayo Beatz providing the beats, the intoxicatingly melodic, instrumental loop is doused in layers of varying bass, which A.M. SNiPER uses to skilfully flirt with a mixture of flows as he delivers his raw, confident and playful lyricism. The heavy bassline and rhythmic drops create an ominous yet bouncy feel as he spits bold lyrics about success, focus and intentions.

Having built a cult hip-hop following, last year proved to be a whirlwind for the rapper. From the release of single ‘SUPREME’, which saw his music spread globally, gaining over five million streams to date and over 1.4 million YouTube hits, A.M SNiPER went on to hit the European tour circuit, alongside Tekashi 6ix 9ine, resulting him being featured across the VICE network. A.M SNiPER was also nominated as part of the ‘Best Duo’ at the MAD Video Awards for track ‘Harry Houdini’ (which has topped over eight million YouTube views to date), and to top off the year, he received a nomination for ‘Man Of The Year’ in Cyprus MAN Magazine.

With a multi-track release in the pipeline for later this year and hints at a number of exciting features being on the line-up alongside him, ‘RUN’ opens the doors on what is going to be another phenomenal year for A.M. SNiPER.
