  • The fantastic “Release Me” is a stirring track from @BayleighCheek. The Dallas-based singer/songwriter was a solo musician from 2015 to 2018, at which point the project turned into a band. “Release Me” is a very strong introduction, with suavely smoky vocals captivating from the get-go. A buzzing backing synth pairs with the vocals to start, with guitars and keys assembling a smooth melodic fixation thereafter as the one-minute mark approaches. The brisker rhythm section and key adornments join with smoothly melodic vocals, leading into the beautiful title-referencing vocal hook at 01:20, adorned with effervescent synths. The track reminds me of Weyes Blood’s bouncier tracks, like “Everyday.” “Release Me” comes from Bayleigh Cheek’s upcoming EP, Immortals, out on March 6th. The track was recorded last May, and represents the band’s first release. Per the band, the Immortals EP “centers around the theme of finding truth, of not only about yourself but in life and how once you know the truth, that in itself becomes ‘immortal.'” {Link to listen in bio}
  • On new track “Sparkle,” The Derevolutions captivate with serene vocals, an island-set key bounce, and flashes of hypnotic textural whirring. The Boston-based project has impressed with a multitude of tracks in the past, and kick off 2020 in excellent form with this gem. The twinkling, enjoyably dazed vibe recalls The Avalanches’ Wildflower. “Sparkle” impresses in several facets. {Link to listen in bio}
  • The fantastic “Interference From Hell” is a brilliant psych-pop track from @monkeybadooski, premiering today. Led by Jesse Viola out of Jefferston Township, PA, the act recalls The Kinks’ knack for quaint yet hypnotic melodies. Viola, who’s a member of the psych-rock trio Family Animals, clearly has a firm grasp on this nostalgic psych-friendly sound. This briskly melodic Kinks-esque sound leads in the first half, with melodic guitar lines accompanying the keys and vocals toward the second half. Shortly thereafter, the guitars rise in a way that reminds fondly of Electric Light Orchestra, with a time-winding-down conclusion bringing things to a lusher pace as this gem of a track finishes. Certainly, Monkey Badooski is one of my favorites of 2020 thus far. It’s not often you find an act with such a convincing throwback sound that struts modern innovation on top of it all. {Link to listen in bio}
