Hard Lights, Moonshine, Ember Island – Umbrella (feat. Marnik)

I tend to like select covers of this song more then the original. The is one such cover since it takes a different spin of the tune without missing the heart of it. My favorite part has always been ‘Took an oath I’mma stick it out ’til the end’. I love the cadence and rhythm there. It’s effortless and so damn catchy. This version has a smoother deeper vibe to the track. The vocals are soothing and the beat is driving in the chorus.

Hard Lights has an ear for melody and this is evident when going through his catalog of music he’s produced. Hard Lights is a Producer / International DJ racking up massive plays on Spotify.

Cults – Spit You Out

Beautiful lead melody with gentle vocals adorn this new track from Cults. The musical elements paint an adoring picture with some trippy elements. The drums ground it to earth while the organs and synth elements take it to new grounds. The song focuses on parasitic relationships and how to break old patterns of interaction. Cults is the duo of Madeline Follin and Brian Oblivion.

Mounika. – Ailleurs

Have another Mounika. track that is another testament to his craftsmanship. The track centers around a manipulated vocal snippet with a steel guitar-esque sound that provides the backbone. It conjures images of a sitting on cabin porch by the Bayou. Has a bit of a mystery around it with it’s eerie lead sound that drops in around the 43 second mark. Another hallmark of Mounkia. is his talent for crafting a solid beat.
