NØVE – Bang Bang

The melody on this is the hook for me. It’s a soul / R&B electronic pop track along the lines of The Weekend.

About this song

LA-based alt/R&B artist NØVE will release his new EP Dark Paradise this summer. Bang Bang is the 3rd single from the EP, following Taboo and Trigger. The EP was produced by Johnny What (one third of the LA-based electro pop group BRAVES), and combines electronic sounds with ominous vocals and impactful beats. With a dark past in his rear view, NØVE’s music tells the stories of a “drug war” veteran growing up in the illusive dark paradise of Venice.

Zola Blood – Heartbeat

Zola Blood has just released this rather introspective and heartfelt track from their forthcoming album, ‘Infinite Games’.

About this song

Zola Blood return with the first single from their self-produced debut album, ‘Infinite Games.’

Heartbeat was written and recorded in the band’s Hackney studio and takes cues from the likes of techno heroes Matthew Dear and Trentemoller, blending layers of sumptuous percussion, analogue synths and atmospheric guitars.

Musically it reflects the band’s love of the dance music that pervades the area where they work into the night. Hang drums and acoustic guitars combine in complex rhythms and give way to a euphoric climax, while the lyrics tell the story of a relationship that should never have been.
