Indie | Guard Delivers Gripping Music Video For His New Tantalizing Single, ‘luvbomb’
Posted by VMan on April 28, 2023
Using music as an effective tool for self-expression and introspection, Guard has cultivated an entrancing style of indie-pop over the years. Born in South Africa but mostly raised in Australia, Guard’s childhood was filled with a passion for pop culture and pop music. A diversely talented individual, Guard is also proficient in filmmaking, graphic design, songwriting, poetry.
Merging these skills, his musical influences, and pure creativity, Guard has returned with his new bewitching single, “luvbomb”. Embedding mystifying sequences of guitar and slow-tempo percussion, these elements are shaped around Guard’s dreamy vocals. Putting listeners in a trance, his seductive singing has a powerful story behind it.
The lyrics in “luvbomb” shed light on relationship toxicity, manipulation, and narcissism. He challenges his audience to think deeply and reflect on their past experiences while losing themselves in the song. Accompanying “luvbomb”, is a breathtaking music video that explores these topics as well. It is a reality-distorting display of haunting and crazy shots, such as Guard throwing up, being smeared with cake, and strapped to a chair.
If one thing is for certain, it is that Guard is an artist that has the X-factor. Keep your eye peeled for this groundbreaking visionary as he continues to deliver mind-bending auditory and visual projects.

Albums | Cryptic producer Modapit drops techno-inspired single “Out Of Control” alongside hypnotizing vertical music video
Posted by VMan on April 24, 2023
Newly-minted producer Modapit is evolving in real time. In January, the secretive artist emerged from the shadows of underground dance music, boasting a gothic, edgy streetwear look contrasting their euphoric, swirling pop-electronic sounds. Shrouded in their signature fishnet veil, the Modapit project has been defined by expertly crafted secrecy – an anonymous identity that has stirred their feverish online fanbase. The mystery has also provided Modapit a sense of creative freedom: by removing the ‘ego’ from the artist, Modapit’s music and fashion-forward aesthetic have become the central focus of the project.
The confidential nature of the Modapit project has also allowed the producer to remain amorphous – by avoiding a defined identity, Modapit can remain an idea that traverses the dance music canon, exploring new sounds and styles in pursuit of becoming a multi-dimensional artistic project.
Modapit is revving up towards their debut album, a full-length project that promises to further spotlight the producer’s bold and diverse electronic music vision. By embracing the beauty of creative partnership, the LP will reflect the deeply collaborative tenets of the Modapit brand. Filmmakers David Borges and Carlos Perez have helped build out the Modapit universe, developing a stark visual aesthetic surrounding the producer’s mind-melding dance sonics. All together, they’ve crafted a funeral-rave vibe – a defining artistic ethos representing Modapit’s out-of-the-box approach and propensity towards detailed world-building.
Today, Modapit unveils their newest single “Out Of Control,” a transition into a darker, more European techno-inspired side of the Modapit project. Filled to the brim with rolling basslines, euphoric vocal samples, and pulsating, hard-hitting drums, “Out Of Control” is an acute exercise in vivid, brooding dance music catharsis.
“Out Of Control” kicks off with ethereal synth pads before quickly introducing stuttering vocal samples, rumbling bass, and heart-racing risers. The track then drops into its infectious, booming beat – a dance-floor igniting rager consisting of scintillating high-hats, driving percussion, huge, thumping kick drums, and tone-setting, acid synths.
“Out Of Control” fleshes out the Modapit sound into new terrain. Having already showcased a pristine sensibility towards lavish pop-electronic bangers, this new track reflects the environment of an energetic, raw Modapit live set.
The track releases alongside a spellbinding video with footage from Sakatisk. Presented vertically and in stunning black-and-white, the “Out Of Control” video displays stylish dancefloor denizens dancing in a club setting. With glitchy, captivating editing, the video is a hypnotizing companion to the track’s dark, underground vibes.
