Track Of The Day: Æ MAK – ‘Glow’

Full of “tribal rhythms, soaring synths and lush vocal harmonies,” Irish art pop artist Æ Mak has shared her latest single ‘Glow’. Described as “dance music with a bite,” the track smoulders with vibrant beats and ultra cool vocals.

Æ Mak has been showcasing her distinctive style on Ireland’s live circuit over the last year, supporting Warpaint in Dublin and performing at a number of acclaimed Irish festivals such as Other Voices and Electric Picnic. 2018 looks like another promising year for her, as she’s been confirmed to play Latitude and she’s been chosen to be part of PRS Foundation’s ReBalance programme, which was introduced to help tackle gender inequality on festival lineups in the future.

Listen to ‘Glow’ below and follow Æ Mak on Facebook for more updates.

LISTEN: KTEE – ‘So What’

Having amassed over 97,000 views for her music videos along with successfully qualifying for The Voice, Austrian pop star KTEE brings her fresh, empowering pop sound to UK shores with her latest single ‘So What’.

‘So What’ is KTEE’s message to women everywhere that even when life kicks you down, you don’t have to stay there. A danceable riff takes us into the catchy pop track as KTEE oozes determination through effortless vocals akin to Katy Perry. The punchy, catchy chorus defies you not to sing along to its message of self-growth. And, in case the listener is too busy dancing along to catch the message (easily done with the track’s contagious rhythm), KTEE takes advantage of the bridge to eliminate any doubt – “… as long as your heart beats, there’s nothing to lose” she reassures us.

With its funky bass-line and catchy riffs layered beneath the singalong chorus, ‘So What’ is a track reminiscent of feel-good summer days filled with freedom. Each element to the single combines perfectly to make ‘So What’ the pop anthem which women everywhere need to be singing from the bottom of their lungs.

‘So What’, the new single from KTEE, is out now.

Track Of The Day: Beauty Sleep – ‘The Feeling Back’

Littered with moments of galactic dream pop, Beauty Sleep’s new single ‘The Feeling Back’ longs for a past just out of reach.

With twisting bass-lines and groovy percussion, the trio’s instrumental would be apt on a glistening dancefloor. Twinklings of glittery keys permeate the track, making it sound like it would be best played on a still, warm summer’s evening.

‘The Feeling Back’ is led by its clever melody, with oscillating hooks and grooves swirling alongside front-woman Cheylene’s soft vocal, oozing a dreamy sense of wistfulness. Whether through the lullaby-like opening or the hazy soundscape of the track, the tangible nostalgia shines through.

Of the track, the band explain:

“It’s a little bit nostalgic for that youthful feeling – where everything is exciting and the world is your oyster, as we’re growing up that seems harder to come by.”

 

‘The Feeling Back’ will feature on Beauty Sleep’s debut album, released in September.
