LITM Pop Picks this week features a diverse lineup of artists who make all sorts of music from heart-touching soulful tracks to genre-bending master crafts. Featuring the talents of A Number From The Ghost, Isak’s Island, The Buggs, My Glass World and Chuck The Show!
A Number From The Ghost - One, Stop
A Number From The Ghost is pure enchanting style and their latest single “One, Stop”. The song is a slow burner taking its time to build its atmosphere, but like every masterfully crafted song ever written, the wait is so much more than worth it. Opening on dreamy synths that set the tone of the song immediately you are well and truly transported to a different world much before the vocals kick in. It can’t be understated the number of feelings and evocative images that have been captured in “One, Stop” and you will find a different nuance or motif or ambient detail you appreciate on every subsequent listen!
Isak’s Island - Someone I’d Recognise
With vibrant, comforting acoustic chords and soulful singing Isak’s Island transports you to the 60s with his heartfelt track “Someone I’d Recognise”. Aksel Undet’s vocal chops are on full display here and his passionate singing serenades your ears with strong emotion and you can’t help but feel captivated by it. The instrumentation is also brilliant on this song and the blending of ambient recording and subtle synth lines build a tremendous atmosphere and soundscape that you can lose yourself in. Lyrically powerful, “Someone I’d Recognise” brings a warm sensation to your heart. Isak’s Island is an outfit brimming with talent and “Someone I’d Recognise” is a surefire hit!
The Buggs - Colourful
The Bugg’s latest release “Colourful” is a charming three-minute track that is brimming with soul. Featuring organic instrumentation that's basic and comprised solely of the holy trinity of rock music; guitars, bass and drums, The Buggs build a bright and vibrant soundscape with their melodies. The vocal performance on this track is nothing short of excellence. An optimistic message about finding colour in every shade of grey, this song breathes joy into your ears. Masterfully blending charming folky rock with the quintessential pop aesthetic “Colorful” is full of personality and is a must-listen, especially when you are having a down day!
My Glass World - What We Call Love
Incredibly wide in its musical ambience, “What We Call Love” by My Glass World is an auditory experience like no other. Filled to the brim with eclectic instrumentation and crystal-clear massive vocals the song delivers pure bliss to you as you listen to it. The vocal performance is emotive and heartfelt and the melodies that lie under it, are a wonderfully whimsical blend of synths and ambient recordings creating a genre-bending soundscape. A thorough exploration of what love even means the songwriting on this piece is top-shelf. Every second of this song captivates you and you must give it a listen!
Chuck The Show - Bliss
The beats and vocals in a pop song have not come together as well as they have on a track as they have on Chuck The Show’s “Bliss”. A song that’s evocative of early electronic dance music gone Daft Punk, Chuck The Show takes you on one wild ride through the runtime of this song. This track will have you moving and grooving to the beat and it is hard not to dance along to this song. The vocals are also nothing short of spectacular with their various stylings and hooky lines. “Bliss” is a perfectly apt name as it perfectly describes the feelings this track will invoke in you as you listen to it!
