indie underrated

FRANKIE OCTOBER and Daisha McBride have teamed up for their new track “Moment.” The intoxicating Pop track is a plethora of catchy melodies and dreamy synths. The track’s tender lyrics are delivered with sincerity and showcase a sense of vulnerability amongst the artists.

“Moment” encapsulates a unique vibe that feels like an Alternative spin to a SZA track. The melodically enthralling vocal performance comes with subtle hints of R&B influence that bring a refreshing vibe to the song.

Kramon, Hunter Hawkins, and Josh Kramon have delivered their new track “Back Last Summer.” The song is driven by its rhythmic emphasis on the upbeats which are complemented by the moody guitar and piano.

The harmonic vocal layering brings the track into a cinematic soundscape, partially because of the perfectly defined mix which situates the backing vocals in the best possible position sonically. There is the perfect amount of space for the main vocals to shine through while listeners can still concentrate on the beautiful production that lies beneath them.

“Back Last Summer” is on our All New Indie Pop Playlist now.

“I’m Not Gonna Bleed,” the new track from DJS BAND opens as a melodic ballad that slowly progresses in and out of a more rhythmically purposed section. The electric piano phases in and out of the background beneath the catchy lead synths and orchestral instrumentation.

The vocals are subtly coated in effects that give it a hint of digital overtone, and each vocal melody resolves itself in the most satisfactory ways, constantly falling to a stable pitch. With this song, less is more as the lack of overbearing production actually does great justice to the overall energy of the song.

“Lose My Breath” by Joseph Shabason, Nicholas Krgovich, and Tenniscoats shifts between two completely contrasting vibes. On one hand there’s an eerie guitar line that feels harmonically out of touch. Backed by an ominous vocal performance that matches its vibe, the track’s dark beginning is almost a bit spooky.

Eventually, the song blossoms into a harmonically rich chorus, decked with angelic tones and a more cheerful guitar melody. The shift in energy transitions the track from a gloomy ballad to a celebratory opening, and acts as a ray of sunshine after a dark storm.
