Having just released their debut album, Danish artist Maria Malmø and her band – aka MALMØ – have now shared another captivating offering in the form of a video of an exclusive live performance of album track ‘River Of The Heart’.

Shot by a frozen lakeside at Nordklang Festival (a contrast to the sweltering heatwave we’re currently experiencing in London!), it showcases MALMØ’s vocals at their most refined. As her stunning, soulful acapella vocals soar with a majestic grace, ‘River Of The Heart’ oozes an exquisite, stirring beauty that’ll send shivers down the spine in an instant. With its sweeping ethereal splendour, it’s sure to captivate the ears with its resplendent, other-worldly magic.

Track Of The Day: FOXTROTT – ‘Wait’

Set to release the first in a series of EPs on Friday, Montreal’s Marie-Hélène L. Delorme – aka FOXTROTT – has now shared a cinematic lyric video for new single ‘Wait’.

Taken from the EP, ‘Wait’ flows with a sweeping, glitchy soundscape and twinkling hooks as Delorme’s smooth vocals glide seamlessly throughout. A completely dreamy slice of sunny electro pop, it’s the perfect shimmering, summer anthem that’ll uplift any mood in an instant. Of the track, Delorme expands:

“It’s a feeling of love so strong that one cannot ignore it or deny it. Musically, it is a warm pulse, a grounded but expansive energy. It’s drums and bass that pull you forward by your stomach, and shimmering synths and percussions that tickle you in this march forward, like the feeling of a new love…”

Watch the new video for ‘Wait’ here:

Meditations I, the new EP from FOXTROTT, is out 15th June via One Little Indian Records.

Premiere: MeMe Detroit – ‘Soc Med Junkies’

Following singles ‘How She Runs’ and their distinctive rendition of Bowie’s ‘Ashes To Ashes’, MeMe Detroit have spent the last year wowing crowds across the country – including us at The Finsbury! – with their immense raging energy. And now, the Birmingham band are ready to share a brand new video.

Blasting out racing, raucous riffs and thrashing beats, ‘Soc Med Junkies’ is a gritty slice of infectious rock ‘n’ roll. Commenting on modern society’s addiction to social media, it’s filled with raw, seething vocals and an impassioned, rousing magnetism, with shades of the likes of rock legends Foo Fighters. And then, just as you start to find yourself utterly immersed in the track’s soaring energy, you’re greeted by a disconcerting pause in the middle of the video as you wait for it to ‘buffer’ (a nice touch to the social media theme), before being penetrated by MeMe’s riotous power once more.

Proving once again that they’re a sonic force to be reckoned with, MeMe Detroit remain firm favourites with this insightful and enjoyable latest offering.
