lines captures love in new music video for “you”

Lines has released their new video for their song “You”. The music video for “You” consists of great visuals that capture the songs essence. In the video , two lovers are seen being physical and there is a bit of knife play involved.

“You” shows the love between two lovers. Sometimes love can be addictive almost as if it is something you constantly need in your life if you have ever felt it. The lovers in the music video display their love for one another in a different way. The song is a great representation of a dark love connection and how unhealthy relationships can be. The video shows how toxic your relationship can be no matter how much you are in love.

Lines capture the meaning behind their song perfectly with their video. The video is well put together and makes you anxious for the next video from Lines.

febueder, “paramount tether”

Febueder just released a video for their latest “Paramount Tether”. The video had a homemade feel to it but is nothing short of trippy. What starts as a series of street lights, soon turn into flashes of lights and candles. The camera starts cutting to random images which include but are not limited to, dead dogs/animals, blood soaked sheets, random strangers, and bodies of water.

Have you ever watched anything and after you were just like “What?” That’s how I feel about this video, incredibly intrigued in the best way.  The song is trippy in itself too.  It flows with drums, trumpets, and deep vocals.  It has a similar feel to Alt-J’s sound, but this is more distinctive and less produced which makes for a raw sound.

fenne lily, “on hold”

Coming out of the woodworks and shocking the music world as a whole is only one attribute that has caught the attention of fans and critics from around the world. Blossoming artist Fenne Lily has broken out of mundane and average to achieve something that is worth while, but more importantly, worth the listen. Mostly acknowledged for her work on Aldous Harding’s last album, Fenne Lily was able to gain the traction that she needed with a surprising 20 million Spotify streams. Her style has been compared to the of Angel Olsen and Linda Perhacs, and has been given the title of “Joni Mitchell meets 4AD.” One of the greatest features of this 20-year-olds vocal performance is the versatility and flexibility in her voice. There is a “je ne sais quoi” feel about the atmosphere that she creates that entices the listener and soothes the soul.

Most recently Fenne Lily has come out with her single, “On Hold” with its accompanying music video that she created and produced by herself. It features Fenne rolling around London on roller skates handing out roses. Full of charm and quirk, this artist clearly has much to offer the rising generation on music and vocal talent.

matt and kim, “forever”

matt and kim, “forever”

Borderline legendary duo Matt and Kim recently released their latest music video “Forever”, off of their new album Almost Everyday, earlier this year. Mark Hoppus (of Blink-182) joins Matt and Kim on vocals for “Forever.”  The video opens with the duo in a warehouse.  Set in black and white, you wonder where the video is going as the beat is poppy and energetic.  It breaks to Kim taking drums and the two going back and forth dancing with each other.

The video is carefree, simple, and sweet like the song reflecting lyrics “Together we’ll cause a stampede, running through streets- I can dance better in a seat, as you’re making fun of me.”  The song and upcoming album Almost Everyday heavily reflect Kim’s recovery after an onstage injury in 2017.  The duo seems to be back and it makes me super happy to see Kim dancing in “Forever.”

Tour dates for Matt and Kim can be found here.

phil and the osophers, “third world american” {premiere}

phil and the osophers, “third world american” {premiere}

Having come a long way from its humble beginnings, current Brooklynite Phil & The Osophers – a solo project spearheaded by multi-instrumentalist Philip Radiotes, often rounded out by drummer Kevin Estrada and bassist Gus Iversen – has found his stride over the past few years. His latest – a track titled “Third Wold American” – is no exception. Taking advantage of an upbeat soundscape to layer in new instruments from the beginning, the listener can find a stark contrast in the tempo of the track verses the lyrics, which are dripping with dissatisfaction. For good reason, too.

Says the band about the track:

“Third World American” is a song that captures a decline in American culture, a decline now sharpened but born long before us.  The feeling that we are foreign even at home, that a diversity of values are not welcomed, or even understood.  That our hearts are orphaned, alienated by power and, because of this, beat out of tempo with the true rhythm of the world.  And it is a song that puts hope solely in exactly these marginalized peoples to lead the way to change.

We’ve got the exclusive premiere of the official lyric video for “Third World American”, a video that plays with the contrast of black and white the way it plays with contrast of sound and meaning. Check it out below!

headwaves, “left right”

headwaves, “left right”

Seattle based dream-pop band Headwaves has just released their latest music video for their rising single “Left Right.” Lead singer Ryan Barber started this journey with a love of writing music that portrayed emotion and feeling. With effortless talent, Barber originally wrote folk songs, however, it soon became clear that folk music could not move an audience like he wanted. Over the span of two years and the addition of friend and musician Larson Haakenstad and producer Randall Dunn, Barber was finally able to create sound around his lyrics that had a deeply satisfying effect on his listeners. With the help of their producer, this dynamic duo feature fantastic synth rock rhythms with lush, dreamy “dance driven” beats.

The most recent music video for “Left Right,” highlights everything that listeners look for when they think of dream pop. The videography features hazy scenes and muted color schemes that seem to allow viewers the escape that they so desperately desire. Along with their creative use of color and screen writing, they were able to create an atmosphere with their music and movements that is enticing and completely envelops the listener. Now that they have several singles and the addition of this new music video, music listeners from around the country are starting to pay attention to this budding dream pop band from Seattle.

British Columbian duo Violet Night is gearing up to show the world what they can do. Violet Night is made of vocals and guitar from Connor Pohl and T.J. Rounthwaite on keys. Violet Night is set to release their debut record Colours Of You which will be out May 4.

Pohl says of the upcoming album:

We grew up on everything from heavy metal and rap, to emo and pop. We try to create a colourful mosaic of all those influences when we write; we’ve never created with borders or put limitations on what we are allowed to sound like. We’ll always do whatever feels most honest to us at that moment in our lives and I think we’ve done that here. We are really proud of the album and hope the hues presented complement yours: the colours of you.

Featured on the album is lead single “North”, along with an accompanying studio music video. The song captures a spirit of adventure, longing, and energy. “North” encompasses the emotion that Violet Night does so well at capturing. We look forward to their upcoming album and we think you will too.
