Rosellas - Before The Storm
Location: United Kingdom, Manchester
Release date: 06/08/21
'Before The Storm' is the latest production from Rosellas, a band that surprises its audience every time and does so in an extraordinary way that fans love. The track contains a lot of rhythmic elements that form a unity with each other and make the whole composition very pleasant to listen to and with pure ecstasy you can approach listening to it.
'Before The Storm' has been getting a lot of positive reviews so far and has many streams on portals such as Spotify. This proves that the track is eagerly listened to and there is a demand for it. We can definitely say that this is just the beginning and there is still a lot of interesting things to come for Rosellas and us.
Rosellas make a sly homage to 90's Manchester bands, evoking sonic parallels to The Verve and The Stone Roses while also channeling inspiration from such bands' present day equivalents like DMA's. In the space of a year, they've gone from playing small local pubs to performing in cities throughout the north to crowds in the hundreds.
GRIDLOCK - Missed Calls
Location: United States, JERSEY CITY
Release date: 23/07/21
GRIDLOCK, a duo comprised of two Japanese-American musicians who were born in Japan and grew up in New Jersey with drastically diverse musical backgrounds, has released their debut track, 'Missed Calls.' Their compositions combine the talents of a jazz musician and a Jersey club producer, while also paying respect to their heritage by fusing aspects of '80s Japanese City Pop and American alternative music.
They created this song during their undergraduate years, when they were dealing with the stress of life's overwhelming choices. This resulted in a song on the feeling of stasis and desire that they felt as a result.
GRIDLOCK are very happy that their production is generating more and more interest from listeners who are keen to pass on 'Missed Calls' which means there is a chance of it going viral.There is no doubt in my mind that GRIDLOCK's career will continue to grow at a very rapid pace and it is well worth keeping up to date with them.
Henry Dukes - VoiceMail
Location: United Kingdom, Marlborough
Release date: 20/08/21
Henry Dukes releases his latest EP which he has named 'VoiceMail' and it features 5 amazing tracks. The artist knows very well how to grab the heart of music lovers and encourage them to listen to his work. In this day and age, that's a skill at a premium and for Henry Dukes, you have to give him a lot of respect for what he does.
'VoiceMail' is a collection of fantastic productions that show that music can be a great vehicle for emotions delivered to humanity every day. The whole EP is a technical masterpiece and it is clear that real professionals are responsible for it and they know their job very well.
Henry Dukes is a very special character, who has been involved with music for many years and has a lot of experience, which can be felt in the latest tracks. I think that the expectations from the artist will be higher and higher, but I am sure that he will manage to prove his worth.
