Big Black Delta – Canary

Big Black Delta has been a favorite of mine going back to 2013 with Side of the Road. Since then every time I see a new release come across I get excited since his particular brand of electronic / pop / rock that is full of life in a 3-demensional way. His latest is a bit more edgier than recent outings. Has a stronger rock electro vibe that runs throughout. Vocals are spot on as usual and the energy is high – think more Nine Inch Nails towards the end of the track.

Ramverk – Change Of Starlight

Sweden’s Ramverk has just released their latest offer that has a glassy shimmer with a cool breeze to it. The vocals have a satin feel to them over an interesting beat of distorted white noise pulses. Track is full of atmosphere and sounds great with headphones on. Ramverk is a duo who meet at The Royal Swedish Ballet School and obviously decided they should not only dance but create music too. Looking forward to future releases from this Duo. For fans of Royksopp and Gus Gus.

ETAN – Duck Down

Reminds me of the more upbeat side of Goldfrapp mixed with a bit more electro edge. London based singer-songwriter, producer and vocalist, ETAN, has crafted an engaging electronic pop track that recalls 80’s synthpop glory days. The chorus is really catchy with the “Duck-duck-duck-duck-duck-duck-duck-duck–duck down, I won’t.” Not a word you would think would be that catchy but ETAN has pulled it off. Also like the arrangement and how the stronger chorus hook does not land till the 2nd time around. The verses sections are seductive and the choruses are catchy. Well done ETAN!
