Today, I listened for the first time to the debut album “Middle of Tomorrow” by the band Knotted Wood, and I must honestly admit: it’s something special! The melodies, the rhythm, the vocal parts – all sound like memories, but turned into music. Sometimes music comes not with a shout, but with a quiet revelation.…

Inspired by the spirit of Nashville, the girls from Lips Speak Louder decided to blow up the scene with their unique sound. Picture this: one with a guitar, the other on drums – and together, with their energy and drive, they create something fresh and multilayered. The duo, made up of Rachel Brandsness (vocals, guitar)…

Rayhan Jabbar is a guy from Scarborough, Toronto. Fans know him as a rapper, actor, and sketch comedian. And now, he’s dropped his debut album: “uLove: Rayhan’s Version.” This is the first part of his upcoming trilogy, which he hasn’t even named yet. Why “Rayhan’s Version”? Because it’s a raw, unfiltered musical narrative – full…

Today, I want to talk about a work that deserves attention. The focus is Marcus Orelias – a Bay Area artist whose creative versatility is nothing short of astonishing: musician, science fiction writer, former professional athlete, actor, and visual artist. Imagine an entire art gallery embodied within a single individual – and his new album,”…

A couple of months ago, I wrote reviews of The Ram singles, which served as heralds of his new album. And now the release of “I Am Nowhere, I Am Everywhere” is out – and I want to talk a bit about what this thing is. Essentially, these are home demos, reimagined together with his…

Creating music in such a moment feels like standing on the edge of despair, a half-mad attempt to reach out before the darkness closes in. Yet in these strange, restless sounds, a…

Did you ever catch Wings of Desire? It’s Wim Wenders’ moody, meditative glide through Berlin’s muted streets and quiet longings. The film is soaked in poetic melancholy, big-brain meditations on mortality, solitude, and the ache of simply being human. And while floating through all that moody introspection, a thought slammed into me: Stephanie Bettman’s voice…

Imagine you’re deep inside a neon-lit circuit board masquerading as a city. The sidewalks sweat chrome, puddles pulse with BPMs, and in the corner of all that glossy cyber-noir — there it is: synthwave. It’s dripping nostalgia, dipped in fluorescent tones straight out of a VHS tape you found behind a broken TV in a…

I like my job because it gives me the opportunity to discover new names, meet interesting musicians, and learn their stories. Every day, I discover something new – be it a rare instrument, a unique performance style, or an unexpected take on familiar melodies. These discoveries inspire, fill me with emotions, and broaden my horizons.…

If cities have a voice, then Detroit’s is rhythmic and compelling. Here, music is a part of life itself. In the ’60s, Detroit became the birthplace of Motown Records – the sound that changed the world. Stevie Wonder, The Supremes, Marvin Gaye, and The Jackson 5 recorded here. This music united people and set the…
