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!

Andrei Sora – Uber Blindfold Epicyon

Andrei Sora · Uber Blindfold Epicyon

Love when an instrumental can tell a story and that’s exactly what Andrei Sora did with Uber Blindfold Epicyon. It starts with a softer lead in the intro and then is struck with what sounds like an unfortunate series of events. The track, at least to my ears, has movements rather then verse/chorus since it evolves and takes the listener on a sonic voyage. The classic synths sounds are always a pull for me and there is plenty of that on this tune. Andrei Sora is a music producer from London by way of Romania.

Revelever – Future Forward (ft. Shannon Maree)

I have soft spot for any track that sounds like Vince Clarke produced during his Yazoo years. This track captures that vibe in perfect form. Granted, vocally it’s different from Alison Moyet but Shannon Maree makes this sound her own. It’s very similar to one of the more mellow Yazoo tracks. Overall, this track made me smile and I had to have it. I also love the cover art for this track.
