PTRIK – PTRIK

Track is a bitter sweet and opens up with a subdued beat and spoken words from voicemails. The song chronicles a long distance relationship over a two year period. The main vocal drops in around the one minute mark and the lyrics are about the long distance between the two that is growing with time. PTRIK is San Francisco native Patrick Slade.

Evie Irie – Little More Love

No doubt this girl has a voice. She reminds me of Sting’s daughter who used to go by the artist named, ‘I Blame Coco’. Positive message in the track and production is stellar. The song is well crafted and has a nice melody. The video is all inclusive and shares the positive message of the track.

VERSE
Take a hit it’ll help you calm down
I know that you’re tired
Don’t you wanna be one of the cool kids now
One of the cool kids now

Get a grip everybody gets around
Pull that dress a little higher
Everybody’s doing just a little more now
Just a little more now

PRE-CHORUS
Hurry up, hurry up make your choice
No one’s gonna hear your voice
All of this anxiety Creeping up inside of me, stop

CHORUS
We just need a little more love 
People taking care of each other
You’re my sister, you are my brother
Yeah we just need a little more love 
Starve the hate and feed the kindness
Put all of the fear behind us

We just need a little more love, love
Just a little more x3

VERSE
Everybody knows that boys don’t cry
Just keep it all inside you
You don’t want to show no one your weakness now
Cause it’s not allowed

They laugh at what you’re wearing
And it’s way overdone
Now your holding back tears, while you’re holding a gun
If anyone would listen, even just one
Think of what could be done x2

CHORUS
We just need a little more love 
People taking care of each other
You’re my sister, you are my brother
Yeah we just need a little more love 
Starve the hate and feed the kindness
Put all of the fear behind us

We just need a little more love, love
Just a little more x3

BRIDGE
Shine your light
Cause you never know
Who’s in the darkness
Please don’t be heartless

Shine your light
Cus only heaven knows
When someone’s hurtin’
It’s always worth it

CHORUS

We Will Kaleid – The Hurt

There is a certain tenderness / vulnerability to the vocals of this track. The lyrics talk about dysfunctional relationships and the tired loops of self-destruction. The mood and atmosphere of the music puts this melancholy vocal in the perfect frame. The production and textures are engrossing and evolving. Reminds me a bit of the deeper tracks from Little Dragon. We Will Kaleid are electronic pop duo Jasmina de Boer and Lukas Streich.
