New Track: Nobody – Golda

The elusive act GOLDA follows up ‘NsfW’ and ‘Villian’ with the self-assured release ‘Nobody’, via tastemaker label Majestic Casual.

His latest release offers up sizzling yet ethereal soundscape of Lo-Fi drumbeats textured with hints of 90s R&B, aiming to chase away the darkness with confident atmospheric chords and verbal self-reassurance.

With a sound that has drawn comparisons to music icons such as Frank Ocean, The Weeknd and Miguel, GOLDA welcomes the listener into a world of dark and grotesque R&B, drowning in sonic percussion and sub-bass. ‘Nobody’ is set to be the most hip-hop-esque track, offering both lyrical and atmospheric substance.

With the imminent release of debut EP ‘The GOLDA Complex’ and a string of eclectic singles behind them, which have been supported by tastemaker platforms including Complex, This Song Is Sick and Kaltblut Magazine, the faceless act relay vivacious stories of inner conflict, vicarious satisfaction and loss of control. Come along for the ride…

New Music Video: So Cold – Amun

2018, the year of humans being unapologetically themselves whilst the theme of culture takes over all parts of the globe, and from it all, arises a dream from a young, London raised soul.

22-year-old British-Somali singer/songwriter AMUN unleashes the video for her latest single ‘So Cold’ which made its debut via Link Up TV to rapturous comments. Courtesy of the flawless vocals, chic imagery and hazy aura, her plight to share her music in order to inspire is clearly having an effect.

Taken from her impending EP release ‘I Like To Sing’, AMUN strives to be ‘free and creative on a beat’ and completes her new selection of tracks showing a variety of flows, not only with her voice, but lyrically too. Each track portrays the lessons, experiences & childhood tales that many can relate to. ‘So Cold’ specifically depicts revenge, “It is the thoughts of someone who was treated less than their worth, as well as the wrath that comes with not appreciating people”, says AMUN describing her work.

Partnering with Perpetuity Music for the release of the EP, who have been responsible for several acts that are now well established in the UK Urban scene, AMUN steps into the spotlight surrounded by an experienced and understanding team that aim to nurture and highlight her incredible talent the world.

New Track: Good Girl – Gena Perala

GENA PERALA releases a haunting new single and visuals for ‘Good Girl’ today, which marks the new chapter in her musical journey – and the departure from her last album (Exactly Nowhere, 2014): Perala trades in her piano for a synthesizer and a drum machine. The result is a synthed-up, down-tempo production that flirts with pop elements.

With a voice that is both heartwarming and chilling, Perala creates a style all her own – soft yet strong. “The song is about an abusive relationship and ultimately how every day my friend stayed in this relationship, it was killing her,” Perala explains. “But it’s important to understand how complicated and wrapped up in our past these situations are, so the song is also about the enabling that went on with the abuse and then my own helplessness and anger around men fucking with women, especially when those women are my best friends.”

The accompanied visual is an eerie depiction of the artist floating in water surrounded by darkness and at times drowning. Dancers writhing underneath fabric represent the relationship eliciting visuals as unnerving as they are interesting.

‘Good Girl’ is the first of a string of releases Perala plans for 2018, with long-time producer Chris Gestrin – so expect some intensely honest lyrics that will take you on a journey through a seamless fusion of genres, creating dark melodies.

Check out the video for ‘Good Girl’.

New Music Video: Swimming – Cherri V (ft. Roxxann)

Beginning the year with sultry single ‘Swimming’,  which has been garnering strong early support from BBC 1Xtra plus others, CHERRI V returns with the accompanying visuals for her latest offering.

Produced by Asylum 33, who have previously worked with Tinie Tempah, Mr. Eazi, Shakka, and Bonkaz, among others, the music video for ‘Swimming’ sees Cherri V and RoxXxan bringing a more relaxed and organic visual element to the experimental R&B production, as they party among friends, while the British R&B/Soul singer/songwriter gets to know her leading man, without the usual pressures that come with meeting someone new.

Speaking of the inspiration for her ‘Swimming’ visuals, British R&B/Soul singer/songwriter said, “I’m glad Asylum 33 were able to capture that house party relaxed feel. I also wanted to take a little more of a casual approach for this video, compared to ‘Leave Me Be’, and shove my real friends in front of the camera lol. The shots in the pool were a highlight for me! I’m really proud of this visual”.
