Deleter - Anaconda Walkway
With a super unique start, ‘Anaconda Walkway’ by Deleter is the kind of rock song you don’t see coming. The vocals are fun, with its theatrical tones and adds to a very different interpretation of rock vocals. The inclusion of fun verse, almost playful verse sections and the serious, sombre sounding chorus section adds to an interesting dynamicity to the song.The song seems like a blend of the sound of The Red Hot Chili Peppers and The Strokes. The shift that comes in the bridge section with a total taking over by the sombre sound, is something that will take you by surprise. The song is a must listen. Believe us.
Hana Piranha - Valentine
With tunes characterised by mystery and tension starting off the track, ‘Valentine’ by Hana Piranha is for you if you like a little theatricality in your songs. An Amy Winehouse sound blended with a Dove Cameron sound, this song is a big, pleasant bag of surprise. The instrumentation has quite a musical quality to it, and you can find yourself imagining yourself in a dramatic music video. The latter section sees the layering of vocals, adds amazing textures to the song, and furthers the sense of mystery and tension that is the driving force of the song. Give this song a sure listen, for you won’t in the least regret it.
Housework - Am I The Lucky One
With a magnetic intro section starting off the song, ‘Am I The Lucky One’ by Housework brings in shifts you absolutely don’t see coming. The song starts off with a heavy rock sound and then transitions into vocals and a sound that are haunting and mystery bound. The instrumentation brings in layers and strips itself of those very same layers, bringing in about a track that keeps you on the edge. The vocals are simply the star of the show, with the way they move, changing the tone of the song, as they shift from haunting to raw and visceral. The ending of the song, with its slowing down of pace, feels like the perfect end to a great moment of catharsis.
WillX - Todo Pasará
Starting off with bright guitar riffs and drum patterns, ‘Todo Pasará’ by WillX proves the truth that music cannot be contained by language barriers. A vibrant, yet deeply reflective and introspective riff driving the song, the instrumentation constantly shifts and moves and does not let stagnancy set in. The vocals hold immense depth and vulnerability in them and have a transcendental effect on the listener. The instrumentation towards the end of the song gets heavy, laden with amazing textures, and takes on a super fast pace while the vocals remain soaring and intentionally slow. With all that it is packed with, the song is sure to not disappoint you.
Veinmelter - Starstreams
An introspective sound taking ground right from the first note, ‘Starstreams’ by Veinmelter feels like drifting away and into a world far from our own. The instrumentation has layers coming together that you don’t see coming. It has a certain cyberpunk quality to it, which comes from the heavy synths, that gives it the otherworldly effect. The vocals are hauntingly beautiful, reminding you of fog laden, dark forest paths. You might be reminded of Muse’s discography owing to the similar atmospheric sound that is exhibited by this track. This song is crafted in a manner that demands your complete attention, and we say you should give in to it.
