Dora Donaldson is back with brand new offering 'You Wonder Why'

 



International singer-songwriter Dora Donaldson is back with her second single ‘You Wonder Why’ since moving to Malaysia. Dora is Hungarian-American-Swiss and is currently based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The product of a collaboration between two local Malayasian producers, the track was recorded and produced during one of the lockdowns in the past year. Receiving praise from the likes of A&R Factory and Roadie Music, Dora’s songwriting has certainly stepped up a gear.

Speaking about the new release, Dora shares, “This song is part of a series that I'm working on about self-growth. My previous single, “If This Is Your Love” is about recognising the difference between control and love, and finding the courage to step away. “You Wonder Why” acts as the next stage - facing the inevitable backlash for becoming your own person.”

Dreaming of her music being featured on the silver screen, Dora Donaldson’s remarkable music will leave you wanting more. “You Wonder Why” is a downtempo folk track that comes across as a breathtaking ballad. Sounding like the rebirth of Dora, hearing her music in this new light is spine-tingling. Showcasing darker themes, cinematic instrumentals and a sense of urgency, the track is about finally using your voice to say what you mean.

Rich Chambers releases cross-genre hit 'I Wonder'

 


Vancouver, Canada based artist Rich Chambers is going from strength to strength. Following his successful single release from September, “High School Can’t Last Forever,” Chambers adds another infectious pop/rock song to his catalog. Using three basic chords as his foundation, Chambers has built a simple yet effective melody, sing-alongable gang choruses and crafty guitar hooks into his new single “I Wonder.” A Rock N’ Roll track that would not be out of place in the Country, Easy-Listening, or Top 40 Charts, “I Wonder” is perfect for your playlist because of its fresh sound and optimistic nature.


Speaking about the new release, Rich Chambers shares, “Those who know me, know that I often talk about how personal songwriting is or how I am often trying to reflect upon some aspect of the human condition and/or experience in a song, but they also know that a part of me also fully embraces and enjoys the ‘guilty pleasure’ aspect of music and songwriting. Not all songs have to mean something. Sometimes a song is simply about enjoying the music and having fun, which is where ‘I Wonder’ comes from. The song was a pile of fun to write and even more fun to record!”


A sentiment of fun shines convincingly through in this bubblegum pop meets rock song that Chambers likes to simply call a ‘guilty pleasure’... and this is merely the beginning! Following “I Wonder,” Rich has countless single and album releases planned for well into 2022 as he sets out to establish himself as the voice of vintage  yet freshly modern Rock N’ Roll for the 2020s!

The Jealous Guys share soulful new track 'North Face Sermon'

 

San Francisco based duo ‘The Jealous Guys’ made up of Casa and Yin are on the rise thanks to their conscious and soulful Bay Area Street style that pays tribute to Hip Hop culture as a whole. They’re now back with their brand-new incredibly slick single ‘North Face Sermon’ which is released worldwide on 19th November 2021. 


The release of ‘North Face Sermon’ coincides with their anticipated new album “Art of Hip Hop Vol. 1” which is set for release via Audio Vandals and features an abundance of the Bay Area’s finest underground artists including Ozer, Kaly Jay, Professa Gabel, Daylite and more. Opening up about their new single ‘The Jealous Guys’ mention, “North Face Sermon is a soulful track with references to old school Hip Hop and fashion filled with slick wordplay”.

The track opens up with hugely expansive production allowing Casa and Yin’s soulful vocals to take centre stage. The introduction of a crisp cut beat draws power into the rhythm by edging us closer to a powerfully intense chorus. It allows you to feel every bit of long-lasting passion portrayed in their vocals. 'North Face Sermon' shows the strength of pure, rhythmically conscious ability, that oozes experience. The distant, yet prominent minor elements of the instrumental creates the perfect pockets of space for Casa & Yin, showing the extent of how perfectly synchronised the duo are vocally.

Tina Rix releases soulful new offering 'Do Better'



Nigerian, American artist Tina Rix returns with new contender ‘Do Better’. Drawing inspiration from artists such as Sade, Jill Scott, Seal, John Mayer and Michael Jackson to name a few, Tina Rix is an artist in her own right on a mission to change the industry forever. Receiving previous support from Conversations About Her, Link Up TV, Amor Magazine, H-Wing & Mystic Sons to name a few outlets, Tina is going from strength to strength with each release.


Speaking about the stylish new release, Tina shares, The track Do Better is a single off my soon-to-be-released full-length music album, titled No Looking Back, scheduled to be released in January 2022.  Do Better is about someone who is feeling drained and frustrated with their lover. 

You know, sometimes in relationships, people get lazy, comfortable, familiar, and forget that you are a prize and should be treated like a queen. When one person is putting in all the work and trying to sustain the relationship and the other person is just kinda...there along for the ride, refusing to build and pretty set in their inability to try any harder. The song depicts the frustration in the partner that put so much in and doesn't want to leave but will if she has to. She's airing her grievances with her lover hoping it doesn't fall on deaf ears.  I feel as though this song could easily be viewed from a male or female's perspective, married, dating, or in a long-term relationship. So men don't feel left out on this one! It's a gender-fluid kinda theme. Everyone that has been in a relationship that has lost its spark can relate to 'Do Better.'


Vanessa Hillman returns with stunning new single 'Tongue Tied'

 

Having grown up attending local festivals and restaurants, Vanessa Hillman is certainly a captivating storyteller. Fast forward to the present day, and this songwriter is about to change the industry forever. Back with latest release ‘Tongue Tied’, the prominently pop track has elements of fierce R&B throughout.

Sharing her thoughts on the new release, Vanessa explains, “Tongue Tied is about being so into someone that you're reckless. You're hypnotized to go along with anything even when you know better.”

Taking you back to where it all began, Vanessa used to sing at her local bar. Obsessed with songwriting from a young age, Vanessa’s parents sent her off to college to study business and she signed up for all the music classes instead. Being taught to write songs on piano and learning how to produce on her laptop, you could say the rest is simply history.

Her debut single “Let Me Go” has received over 100,000 streams on Spotify since its release, and “Tongue Tied” could easily follow in the same footsteps. Musically, the track is fuelled with sassy vocals that come across as entirely empowering and states that this songwriter means business.

Ramzi releases gorgeous new ballad 'Amazing'

 

Multi-cultural artist Ramzi was born to Lebanese parents, he grew up in Nigeria and later moved to London where he now resides. An accomplished musician, singer-songwriter and producer whose music is influenced by the likes of pop, soul, afrobeat and power ballads, there’s no limiting Ramzi to one genre. As an artist he has amassed over 6 million Spotify streams and 16 million views on YouTube. He has written for and collaborated with a number of well known artists such as The Overtones, Backstreet Boys, Rudimental, Taio Cruz and Kenny Thomas. On social media, Ramzi has been praised by artists like Ne-Yo and Afrobeat superstar Tiwa Savage. In 2018 Ramzi discovered a heart problem which resulted in a life saving operation. Since then Ramzi has had one goal in mind, to make as much music as possible, to make people feel good and have a positive effect on peoples lives. 


Back with inspiring single ‘Amazing’ - that’s certainly one word to call it!

Speaking about the empowering number, Ramzi shares, “It’s about love and how amazing it is even with all the struggles that come with it. The song sums up my marriage and every time I’ve been in love throughout my life. I felt it was important to draw on real life experiences that others could also relate to.”

Amazingis based around a diverse ballad arrangement that will certainly pull at your heartstrings. A track that could easily give the world’s biggest pop stars a run for their money, the new single is best described as enchanting. Building into an unforgettable soundscape that continues to gain momentum, ‘Amazing’ feels like the perfect first dance song.

FF Rarri returns with infectious single 'The Base'



American singer and songwriter FF Rarri returns with his first single of the year ‘The Base’. Produced by Stefanccino, the glistening single dives into realms of multiple genres to create FF Rarri’s signature sound. Having started singing at the age of 14, FF Rarri got his stage name in the ninth grade and has never looked back.

Speaking about his new single, FF Rarri shares, “The Base is about having a good time and turning up.”
Living and breathing music, FF Rarri had this to say on something he’d change in the industry… “Only thing I hate in the music industry is how labels and people with power want you to do the same as every other artist just because that’s working right now. I find inspiration in myself and my friends that are artists as well and in the places I go give me motivation to keep going.”

Hoping to inspire the next generation of artists and continue to make music that’s true to him, FF Rarri is an exceptional artist with layers of talent. “The Base” is a clear statement that this artist means business.

Mod10 combine euphoric sounds to create 'Blank Canvas'



Duo 
Mod10 are back with a powerful new anthem ‘Blank Canvas’. Exploring themes of self discovery, social situations and larger mysteries about humans and the universe, Mod10 are as real as it gets. Consisting of Matt Kohn on lyrics and vocals, and Sam Carlen on production, the sensational rap track flows freely with confidence and individuality. Receiving attention via the streaming world, the duo have over 90,000 streams on Spotify alone across three previous singles. 

Speaking about their thoughts on the instant classic, Mod10 state, “It’s about making your inner vision come to life and the various paths that can lead you there. Prioritizing money, fame, health, happiness, friends, family, in one big balancing act… if I live what I’m dreaming, that means I sleep while I’m standing.”

Constantly bringing something new to the table with each release, Mod10 are at their strongest in ‘Blank Canvas’. Short but definitely sweet, the under 2 and a half minute long track is a vital asset to the duo’s ever-growing discography. Rolling off the tongue perfectly, the track sounds like the lovechild of Kendrick Lamar and Marshmello.  


Meeting through mutual friends, Matt and Sam’s musical journey didn’t start when they met. Matt Kohn grew up in Elkins Park, Philly, influenced by hip/hop and rap throughout his life, he has been part of local rap collectives, released numerous solo projects, free-styled at many cyphers, and opened for artists’ shows such as Token, RA the Rugged Man, and Hi-Rez. Sam Carlen grew up in Northeast PA (Scranton area) as a rock and roll kid, he has played guitar for the majority of his life and started producing/engineering in high school, doing various jobs with the local music and theater scene.

Australian indie-pop artist Liam Cooper unveils single 'Another Lonely Night'


An artist whose musical career has always been written in the stars, Liam Cooper is back with brand new single ‘Another Lonely Night’. Based in Sydney, Australia, Cooper creates a distinctive soundscape that’s instantly recognisable as his own. Produced by Sean Carey (ex Thirsty Merc Guitarist, 20 Good Reasons, In the Summertime), the indie-pop infused number was engineered at Church Street Studios. 

Speaking about the emotive new single, Liam Cooper shares, I went through a period of time where I was away from my wife for the longest time we had ever been apart. This is the story of the nights I spent sleeping on my own, the days I spent drinking trying to pass the time and all the things I did to try and be closer to her. It was written on one of my first cruise ship contracts as a guest entertainer where I was flying all over the world to different cruise ships performing my show, Kings of the Keys.”

Following in the footsteps of previous successful single ‘Out of the Blue’ (which has gained over 11,000 streams on Spotify alone since it’s release in May), ‘Another Lonely Night’ looks to be another hit for Liam. Taken from his forthcoming EP ‘Lonely Nights’, out September 2021, the new anthem sounds like the lovechild of Brandon Flowers (The Killers) and Coldplay. A timeless offering that comes across as the perfect introduction into the mind of Liam Cooper, ‘Another Lonely Night’ is comforting and a blessing in disguise.

Surrounded by music from a young age, Liam’s musical journey began with an early education in classical piano, before finding his feet as a songwriter and performer during his time at Wollongong High School for the Performing Arts. Liam relocated to Sydney to pursue music and it wasn’t long before he found himself touring the country, and also internationally too. 


London based artist Anita Luki reveals sensational new track 'LYM (love version)'

 

London based singer-songwriter Anita Luki is an artist that won’t be leaving your playlist anytime soon. Having performed across New York, India and UK (including Glastofest), the songstress is back with R&B offering “LYM ‘love version’”. Armed with a stripped back production and elegant vocals, the track is emotive and bathed in a powerful arrangement. On the release, Anita shares, This is a conversation between my present and younger self”.

Detailing the importance of growth and self discovery, the powerful version of Anita’s new anthem is entirely relatable and walks upon familiar ground.

Taken from her debut EP ‘Love Your Mind’, Anita’s songwriting stems from her love for playing the piano - a true love that’s stuck around since a young age. Playing a huge role in many of her songs, emotive piano melodies and passionate vocals are Anita’s forte. Consisting of tracks that use her running themes of captivating harmonies and emotional lyricism, Anita’s discography sits between Pop and R&B.

Receiving praise from 58 individual playlists that played a part in promoting previous single ‘Happiness Looks Good On You’, the previous single received the most love from the United States, United Kingdom and Italy. 


A journey through pain, growth and healing - Anita Luki’s music will leave you weak at the knees.

Raw Terra Releases First Two-Sided Single “Every Little Bit” and “I Don't Need You”!

Raw Terra released his new two-sided single on December 3, 2021! Raw Terra is the alter-ego of musician Richard d’Andrea. Primarily a bassist, he is also a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. He was an early member of The Motels (in the historic Radio Free Hollywood lineup), The Know (with Gary Valentine and Joel Turrisi) and later forming Factor Four with Jeff Wolfe and joining The Roosters United with Jeff Jourard and Graham Daddy. He has also performed or recorded with many other musicians including Joan Jett, Michael Des Barres, The Halibuts, The Insect Surfers, The Furys, The Textones, The Roosters United, Bob Beland, Marc Platt, David Nigel Lloyd, Fur Dixon and Joao Erbetta.

After decades of playing in bands he decided to mix it up and embarked on solo recordings of his own compositions. 2018 marked the released of his first solo album “Mars 12, Earth 0” and soon after the same album's backing tracks: “Mars 12, Earth 0 - (Instrumentals)” (a nod to “Stack-o-Tracks”). The music ranges from Surf and Neo-60’s to driving Alt and Indie rock and ends with a hypnotic tone poem.

“Mystery Monkey Remix”, released August 2019, revisits and remixes two songs from that first album: “(Waitin’ for The) Mystery Train” is given a clearer, more punchier mix and “Monkey See, Monkey Do” is reworked with electric 12-string guitar and new vocals.

Original songs “Every Little Bit” and “I Don’t Need You” make up his first 2-sided single release (December 2021) and he is working on the other songs that will comprise his second, as yet unnamed, album. “Every Little Bit” has never been recorded or performed with a band while the song “I Don’t Need You” might have been heard being performed by the Factor Four band in the mid 80’s in Los Angeles. Both songs were recorded by Raw Terra this past spring and summer.

Says Richard, “My work on this CD or album has just begun and I’m releasing the songs as I finish them - on my first album I waited until all were finished (which took a long time) before releasing it. So, I thought I would try to do it incrementally this time. ‘Every Little Bit’ was written as a stream of consciousness but seems to have two main themes: one is about being fed up with certain aspects of life and the other a confession of attraction and desire for another. ‘I Don't Need You’ is a somewhat snotty break-up song - probably directed to the girl in the previous song! These are the first two songs finished and I also started on many others. Some are new while the older ones had been written with the band I was in at the time in mind. Too many songs go uncompleted... so this is proving to be a good opportunity and impetus to finally finish songs off and record them.”

In closing, Richard has this to say about the two new songs, “Stream it loud (and often)!”

Digitally released by DistroKid for streaming and download at all the usual places.

Digital downloads or purchase: Amazon, Apple Music and iTunes, Bandcamp streaming and full digital list: Amazon, Anghami, Apple Music, MediaNet, Boomplay, Deezer, Instagram/Facebook, iHeartRadio, ClaroMusica, iTunes, KKBox, NetEase, Qobuz, Pandora, Saavn, Spotify, Tencent, Tidal, TikTok/Resso, Triller (beta), Soundtrack by Twitch, and Yandex Music (beta)

QUIET RIOT's Longtime Bassist CHUCK WRIGHT Releases First Official Single & Video "ARMY OF ME" From His Debut Solo Album, CHUCK WRIGHT'S SHELTERING SKY!

Los Angeles, CA - Long-time bassist for multi-platinum rockers Quiet Riot, Chuck Wright, proudly presents the release of the first single from his new solo album. Wright has also worked alongside such rock music luminaries as Alice Cooper, Greg Allman, Ted Nugent, various members of Guns N’ Roses and Kiss to name a few, and now embarks on his first-ever solo excursion.

The first single is a hard-rocking, intense interpretation of Björk’s 1995 hit “Army of Me” and is accompanied by a video that represents Wright’s exploration into disorder and parallels with the recent chaotic state of world affairs. The visuals include a 3D animation of an “army” of Ruth Bader Ginsburgs, the late Supreme Court Justice, feminist icon, and steadfast advocate for women’s rights and gender equality. “I chose to recognize the late Justice Ginsburg in this video as she was such a formidable presence on and off the bench. She challenged the status quo knocking down legal obstacles to women’s equality and inspired an army of believers.”

The track “Army Of Me” features several of Wright’s musical peers including the late Pat Torpey (Mr. Big) on drums, guitarist Lanny Cordola (House of Lords), and Sven Martin (Jonathan Davis Band) on keyboards along with songstress Whitney Tai, the recent “Best Vocalist” winner at The Intercontinental Music Awards.

Watch the video: 

(Mixed by Tim Janssens)

Stream/download the single: https://orcd.co/chuck_wrights_sheltering_sky_army_of_me

The full-length album from Chuck Wright's Sheltering Sky, coming in 2022, features over 30 guest performers including members of Mr. Big, Skid Row, Tesla, Dream Theater, Great White, Asia, Jefferson Starship, acclaimed solo artists Allen Hinds, Toshi Yanagi, and many others. Wright is finally stepping out on his own with a wide range of genres, from Jazz Fusion, Prog, Funk to in-your-face Hard Rock, which was in itself one of the things that led him to want to forge his own way and create this unique collection of songs within his “Sheltering Sky” project.

WHO SHOT SCOTT unveils an inspiring story in new single 'Love We'll Never Know'

 

Armed with an inspiring story that lies within the upbringing and heartbreak of the man behind WHO SHOT SCOTT, the experimental hip-hop artist has certainly been through trials and turbulence. Fleeing Iraq in the arms of his mother when he was 2 years old, they were forced to journey to Moscow due to the dangers in his home country. After time in the Russian capital, they packed their belongings and travelled to New Zealand. Meeting and finding comfort in a friend at the age of 8, their shared love for hip-hop resulted in an internationally performing duo with big visions for the future. In 2019 however, his partner, citing new-found religious belief, abruptly announced he will no longer make music, moved overseas and left his closest friend with no goodbye. After some gruelling months, experimental hip-hop artist WHO SHOT SCOTT was born from the ashes of that personal and professional apocalypse.


Returning with the pivot sound of ‘Love We’ll Never Know’, the track is taken from WHO SHOT SCOTT’S forthcoming EP ‘Mercy II’. Staying true to his philosophy of writing lyrics from deeply personal experiences, WSS brings us into his world and tells the tale of a mental battle he fought while trying to see the potential in a toxic and abusive relationship, rather than seeing it for what it truly was.

Speaking on what the song unveiled about himself WSS Shares with us: “Vulnerability has always been at the forefront of my creative philosophy, whether it be my lyrical content or within my music production, I always strive to be brave and express my inner emotions as accurately as possible through my music. At the time of writing this song, I was dealing with the remnants of post-traumatic stress caused by an abusive relationship from my past. I was in a seriously bad place mentally and finally came to the realisation that I wasn't ever truly in love with this person, but instead, infatuated by the potential of the relationship getting better. I'm very blessed to say that I eventually got out of that situation safely, but the manipulation definitely had some long-lasting effects on me than I would have liked it too. For me - this song is my closure, this is me telling myself that what happened was not my fault and doesn't define me or my future. I was just seeing a love that wasn't truly there.”

Alternative hip-hop at its finest, “Love We’ll Never Know” could give artists such as Tyler the Creator, MF-Doom and Kanye West a run for their money.

Receiving praise from the likes of V Magazine, who referred to her as ‘indie’s next rising star’, Women That Rock Press, Quadio, and UK FM Radio, it’ll come at no surprise that tara-bridget is certainly turning heads within the industry. With just under 30,000 monthly listeners on Spotify alone and just under 1.5 million streams on the streaming platform, tara-bridget is known for her adventurous pop music.


Sharing her thoughts on the release, tara-bridget shares, She's so cool was originally written for my best friend, who had a tough year. Over time, I think the song took on a broader narrative of working women I was raised around, and all around reconciling with growing into myself and finding my place as an artist, as a person. 

I found the melody by accident, looking for something more upbeat at the time, but I felt the lead keys were self-discovering, and the lyrics had kind of just come to me. I was thinking about my best friend, and how I love her. A fun fact is that I kept the first lead vocal take I ever took. I just sat down, and it felt perfect. Those things are rare, and I prefer not to mess with them.”

Bewitched from the very first note, it’s tara-bridget’s distinctive vocals that steal the spotlight. Delicate but still coming across as fiercely powerful, the innovative songwriter’s voice could easily find her singing alongside the greats. Aiming to grow as an artist and truly cement her sound, ‘She’s so cool’ really details the importance of staying true to yourself and finding your ‘niche’. Starting her career back in 2017 by publishing her music on Soundcloud and recording with a USB mic, tara-bridget began writing lo-fi pop music. Gradually maturing with each release, tara-bridget is somewhere between indie-rock, alternative-pop and dream-pop.

Accompanied with the voice of an angel and transcending songwriting, tara-bridget is destined for greatness.
