Section – Withershins

Section

 

Think along the lines of Radiohead meets Moderat, so dark, moody, atmospheric and transitory.

Bio:

Section is Danny Belgrad’s solo act, a 20 year-old student studying philosophy at Yale. After listening to an unhealthy amount of Grimes, he took up producing and engineering his own music.

Section’s music is ethereal. Rock influenced melodies separate him from other artists within the dream pop genre; as he notes “essentially it’s somewhere in between electronica and a rock band.”

Here’s what Danny has to say on his new single ‘Withershins’: “I accidently broke my microphone and lost my key to the basement where I was recording halfway through the song, so the whole thing kind of splits into two parts.”

Danny has finished a handful of tracks that he’s hoping to release this summer, and will start playing shows again in the fall.

About this song

After being remixed by Kygo, making songs with Matoma, Sonny Alven and being one of the founders of WDSTCK is Didrik Thulin finally ready to present his first self produced single “Teenage Hype”

In Didrik´s words “This is the first single i´ve released where I have done the production, singing and songwriting.

Teenage Hype is a song about friendship, and the joy of exploring the corners and boundaries of youth life with someone you look up to and admire. It’s trying to capture the excitement of hanging out with older people, pushing limits, and venturing into new, exotic places in the urban jungle.”

 

 

Newtimers – Flower On The Moon

NewtimersBeen following the Newtimers since 2011 and their sound still catches my eardrums.  This is their latest single which is a bit downtempo but showcases the vocals and a relaxed groove.

About this song

Swedish duo Newtimers release their forthcoming EP One on June 10th 2016 via Cosmos Music .

The EP is a blend of synth pop, RnB and 80s soul with the duo Andreas Britton Cavaco (vocals) and Tim Lundblad (drums, production), finally coming together as Newtimers after writing and recording music for many years under various guises for miscellaneous projects and collaborative ventures.

The tracks on the EP were written at a time when the pair were both suffering from broken hearts. “It’s full of who, what, wheres and whys – seeing past, present and future,” say the band and although the songs were written under somewhat sad circumstances, there’s more hope here than melancholy.

The duo have had dalliances with various labels from indies to majors but finally as Newtimers, they’re ready to present their own brand of alt pop to the masses. Previous single Perfect Ten racked up nearly 90k plays on Spotify and the way the pair combine their influences, carving out their own unique space within the pop genre, is their biggest draw – it’s hard to pin Newtimers down and that’s a good thing.

The EP also features two remixes of forthcoming single Best Of Me by Monsieur Adi and Sailor & I . Critically acclaimed Monsieur Adi is known for creating the official remixes for Ellie Goulding as well asBeyonce , Bastille , Lana Del Rey and The Kooks .

Newtimers’ EP One is the perfect introduction to a band that are more than the sum of their various influences, they create modern pop that’s full of heart, soul and depth.

EP One is out on June 10th 2016 via Cosmos Music .
