Canadian artist Aphrose has just released a music video for “Move On”, which follows her debut single, “The Middle”. Known irl as Joanna Mohammed, Aphrose is based in Toronto. Influenced by a variety of genres and traditional music while growing up, she created her very own indie-soul sound. While she released her first EP in 2009, she rebranded herself as Aphrose (after her mother), dropped her first single under that name in June 2017 and has continued to the present.
Her new single, “Move On” is accompanied by a black-and-white music video that perfectly suits the track. It displays a group of women (including Aphrose)strutting their stuff to the beat of the song. The highlight of the video is, naturally, Aphrose’s vocals. Not only does the song have quality lyrical content, but Aphrose’s talent is outstanding. At first, it sounds like somewhat like Adele, but then the listener realizes there’s a whole other layer of individuality within the vocals. Aphrose’s crisp, bold, and unapologetic pipes are obviously well-honed and the video only serves to further embellish an already great song. You’ll want to check it out yourself!
Hailing from Sicily, Carlo Barbagallo has released a bonus single, “This Queen” which appears as a ghost track on his latest 2017 album, 9, out via Stereodischi, Noja Records, and Wild Love Records. Barbagallo says of the album: “The meaning of the title 9 could be considered as a measure of time passing, but you could find many other meanings and associations; its shape is a strange loop, not a loop like a 0, not as unlimited as [infinity], yet presents an escape and therefore does not remain within its cycle.” The album was created through Barbagallo’s production accompanied by twenty musicians from around the world.
Along with the release of this track is an accompanying music video directed by Elaine Carmen Bonsangue. “My Queen” is the perfect example of Barbagallo’s inter-genre style. It masterfully combines psychedelic sounds with strings and vocals to create an ethereal listening experience. The music video only serves to further complement the song, full of visual overlays and mystery. Check out “My Queen” by Carlo Barbagallo on Spotify.
