Born out of the meeting of Latvian, German, and American influences, SIVO RAY is an independent artist and producer who currently calls both Berlin and Bielefeld, Germany, home.

The instrumentation is lush yet subtle, weaving an intricate tapestry of sound that envelops the listener and transports them into SIVO RAY’s dreamy sonic world.

While the smooth melody and chilled-out vibe may evoke comparisons to artists such as Tame Impala or Beach House, SIVO RAY establishes his own unique voice within the indie-pop genre. The Nietzschean undertones of the song, referencing the daily struggle between calm, stress, power, and despair, imbue the track with an intellectual richness and emotional depth not often found in contemporary pop music. “Dance” embraces the dance itself as a form of solace rather than avoiding the hard facts of life.

The song “Dance” is fundamentally a celebration of tenacity and perseverance, imploring listeners to never give up and continue dancing the dance of life. This message is beautifully and effortlessly conveyed through SIVO RAY’s intricate musicianship and poignant lyricism. With “Dance,” SIVO RAY has created an indie-pop anthem that is not only relaxing and enjoyable but also thought-provoking and inspiring.

“To us, Kings and Queens certainly brings an element of nostalgia to our early days as the original was the debut single that we self-recorded and produced. Over time, we have shaped our sound as a band and over the past few years of playing the song live, it has grown and developed significantly.

They added – Kings and Queens is certainly a fan favourite and we wanted to make sure we did it justice by remaking it from the ground up. Comparing the original release to what we have to offer now shows how far we have come as a band and musicians.” – Stay For Tomorrow

Kings and Queens has a great theme and shares the experiences of falling out of love and trying two rekindle it from time to time but it just keeps failing to exist from becoming two inseparable people to being at loggerheads.

Kings and Queens will appear on the forthcoming physical release ‘The Story So Far ‘ which will feature all of the band’s previous singles.

Ruud Voesten Exposes The 'Clickbait Merchants'

The lockdown in 2020 was a major turning point for bandleader and composer of Ruud Voesten. He seized the moment to delve deeper into the infamous literary work of Dante Alighieri’s Inferno.

Inferno is the first part of Italian writer Dante Alighieri’s 14th-century epic poem Divine Comedy. It is followed by Purgatory and Paradiso. The Inferno describes Dante’s journey through Hell, guided by the ancient Roman poet Virgil.

Thereafter Inferno became his main driving force and this necessitated him to review his personal connection to the capital sins. Reflecting on themes like lust, anger, and betrayal brought him a wide range of connections, motives, and emotions that he put to music.

This really inspired him to an extent it influenced his upcoming album which is slated to be released in September 2023, the first single off the album is what I have to share with you, he chose a perfect title to inform the listener of the incoming message.

The single was titled Clickbait Merchants and was inspired by the Ring of Fraud, usually from misleading information people put out just to get our attention in other to sell something else. Usually, the word Clickbait refers to the online press.

They appeal to our emotions by utilizing deceptive, inaccurate, and provocative language in their advertisements. The well-written text captures the erratic but anxious nature of these headlines. unpredictable, a touch irritable, and attention-seeking.

Although Clickbait Merchants has no lyrics, the instrumentation speaks volumes, by the help of other musicians Ruud Voesten was able to create a masterpiece. Recording and mixing by Micha de Kanter, Mastering by Wessel Oltheten at the Fattoria Musica studio (DE)

Mo van der Does – Alto saxophone

Wietse Voermans – Tenor saxophone

A Glitch in the Matrix: Trust the Mask’s “Otaku” Review

A Glitch in the Matrix: Trust the Mask's "Otaku" Review
A Glitch in the Matrix: Trust the Mask's "Otaku" Review

Electronic pop has been increasingly embracing the dark underbelly of our ever-growing digital world, and Trust the Mask, an Italian experimental duo, has leaped headfirst into this mysterious realm. Composed by Elisa Dal Bianco and Vittoria Cavedon, their glitchy cyber-pop single “Otaku” intertwines dark pop elements with 80s-inspired synths, resulting in a sound that’s both nostalgic and refreshingly unique. As someone constantly exploring the digital age and its effects on our relationships, I found myself completely captivated by their thought-provoking musical vision.

Derived from Japanese, “Otaku” refers to individuals who prefer video games, anime, or technology over human connections, often harming their social abilities in the process. Trust the Mask’s single manages to capture this idea both lyrically and sonically. The song kicks off with pulsating electronic beats sweeping in and carrying you away to an alternate digital dimension. Soon enough, Vittoria’s haunting, otherworldly female vocals, reminiscent of a siren’s call echoing through a dystopian future.

Listening to “Otaku” gives you the sensation of wandering a futuristic metropolis at night, enveloped by neon lights and holograms, only to realize you’re actually immersed in virtual reality. This striking soundscape, paired with the song’s heartfelt theme, conjures feelings of detachment and loneliness – emotions many of us can relate to in our increasingly connected yet isolated world.

“Otaku” channels the electronic pop vibes of early CHVRCHES while echoing the dark pop essence of Depeche Mode or Gary Numan. Trust the Mask has masterfully merged the past with the present, crafting a sound that’s both familiar and novel. The mesmerizing juxtaposition between Trust the Mask’s silky vocals and the edgy, glitchy electronic production creates a lasting, haunting impact.

As a music critic, I’m always seeking groundbreaking sounds that challenge the status quo, and Trust the Mask’s “Otaku” undoubtedly fits the bill. Though it may not cater to everyone’s taste, those who appreciate an immersive, dark electronic pop journey will likely find themselves drawn to this bold, mysterious track. I’m eager to see where the future takes Elisa Dal Bianco and Vittoria Cavedon as they delve deeper into the digital abyss they’ve so vividly portrayed in “Otaku.”

If you’re prepared to embrace the glitch and dive into a world where reality and the virtual realm become indistinguishable, Trust the Mask’s “Otaku” is ready to welcome you. Just brace yourself to question your own existence as you’re swept away by its hypnotic soundscapes.

According to the Trio, Kan Hez Yeddi means, “No human should be illegal, such a powerful message for their Spotify debut.  This is what they had to say;

“No human being should be illegal”. It’s for anyone different who feels that they don’t fit in. And also about others who are afraid to lose what they got.”

Mote Delivers An Electrifying Performance On Diamond Days

From the opening notes, you can tell that “Diamond Days” is going to be a smooth-sailing comfort song. With that atmospheric synth, driving bassline, and drumming, the tone is set for the rest of the track. Diamond Days” by Mote is an indie rock track brimming with retro influences, effective melodies, and brilliant chord progressions.

You can easily hear every detail since Diamond Days has a sound that adheres to all current trends in music production. Along with the drifting between modern and old settings, MOTE also included strong, moderate electro beats that complemented the mellow chord progressions, fuzzy basslines, synth leads, and vocal harmonies.

Still, you’ll notice that MOTE’s outstanding vocal performance is a centerpiece of this composition, and it’s nearly mindblowing how each vocal segment suits catchy verses and choruses. It was recorded in London at Animal Farm studios

The creation of “Diamond Days” is one aspect that really jumps out. The mix is perfect, and the sound quality is excellent. While the bass guitar provides a strong foundation for the other instruments to build over, the drums are powerful and clearly defined. Overall, the result is a song that manages to be both professional and cutting-edge.

“This one is for you if you enjoy a nice 80s modern rendition. The melodic writing appeals to the modern ear but the synth and guitar sounds really scream vintage.

Alec Berlin Shares The Secret Of 'Man's Best Friend'

Listening to the first song on the album “Man’s Best Friend” I couldn’t help but keep nodding and wondering how Alec Berlin was able to make one song with so many instrumentations. the beginning of the second song left me in shock.

At this point, I can’t even imagine what the other tracks are going to be like, although it has no vocals the 11 tracks album carries so many emotions that words cannot even describe.

Throughout the entire album, Alec blends genres from country, to folk, rock, acoustic, funk, and groove amongst others.

“Man’s Best Friend” is a pop-rock music, that was by a 25-year veteran of the NYC music scene who has spent most of his years as an in-demand sideman in major studios. When asked about the inspiration behind his album, this is what he had to say:

“It started one night when Berlin woke up from a dream in which he was listening to a long-lost hit song that no one had ever heard before. He promptly grabbed his guitar and learned the music from his dream”

He went on to say:

“Over the next month, Berlin kept dreaming songs. Gradually it dawned on him that there was a batch of material gestating in his subconscious. So instead of waiting for additional songs to come to him, he went looking for them – and found them there for the taking.”

Alec Berlin has played with Green Day, Elton John, James Taylor, and Rob Thomas. The songs have no vocals and that is exactly how it serves it purpose, “Man’s Best Friend” is tantalizing and mind-boggling, feels like been on a rollercoaster. “Man’s Best Friend” is his 11th release from a 12-song project.
