Review: New music releases

The world is full of weird and wonderful sounds, and willine‘s in-depth French-spoken rap is a new favourite I’d never have thought would be for me. ‘Unseen’ is filled with emotional and slightly distorted electronic elements colouring its soundscape. A song more within the range of music I usually listen to is Caroline Larke‘s ‘Another Song’ which showcases her stunningly breakable voice and a softly wandering soundscape driven by warm guitar sounds, another is CYRILLE‘s ‘Backlash’, which is dark and thrilling, the pop rock track is a slower paced version of the dark rock arena bands I’d go see at the Utilita.

A cinematic new pop release came in the form of James Tonic‘s ‘Fold Down’, which also makes an appearance on his latest album ‘Safety’. A touch of shimmering pop elements has only ever brightened up a playlist and will do so again with this one. Last of my favourite new discoveries is Spanish indie outfit Red Moon Yard‘s ‘Queen of my Sorrows’ with is a welcome and comforting indie release with warm vocals, listening like a comforting friend when in need of one, and it’s got a lovely live video too!
