Nick Mulvey - Dark Harvest Live

Image
Mercury-nominated artist Nick Mulvey releases ‘Dark Harvest Live’ . Nick’s most recent albums ‘Dark Harvest Pt.1’ and ‘Dark Harvest Pt.2’ , were born out of the catharsis of a tough few years that Mulvey has undergone recently in his personal life. ‘Dark Harvest Live’ is the next phase of this process and captures what anyone who has seen Nick Mulvey live will recognise, the feeling of a room that has briefly, genuinely, become one thing.

Video: Serious Child - Veneer

Image
‘Veneer’ , the third single to come from West Sussex artist Serious Child ’s fourth album ‘What Lies Beneath’ . Co-written with Neil Connor , the track is a lush, almost Floydian piece, where a change in tempo, David Grubb ’s sliding violin and My Girl The River ’s backing vocals take us to a beautiful place of realising who we are. ‘Veneer’ is a story of social camouflage, of a figure who had behaved normally for so long, everyone had forgotten who they were.

Serious Child - Dusk on the 33

Image
Serious Child explores the connections between us all with hypnotic new orchestral-pop single ‘Dusk on the 33’ , out now. The song tells the story of an old woman riding the bus all day to keep warm, and no-one noticing her. Inspired by a Georgian lullaby, ‘Iavnana (Violet Nana)’ , ‘Dusk on the 33’ has a slightly otherworldly off-kilter piano-led psychedelic lilt to it, with the poignancy of the old woman’s story nestled within.

La Nouvelle Musique - Spirit Level

Image
Acclaimed London based folk-noir duo La Nouvelle Musique release their self-titled debut album via Fruits de Mer Records ! Alongside the album, the pair have also released new single ‘Spirit Level’ from the album. ‘Spirit Level’  is a hypnotic song about the passing of time and the difficulty many people face day to day just to keep their emotional equilibrium. It’s also about the beauty of nature and how if we sometimes take a moment to focus on it, it can give us a sense of perspective and peace. The track operates in a Velvet Underground style psych-rock territory, with an epic wall of effervescent electric guitars kicking in as it wildly escalates.
