Often times we find musicians creating music to fit a certain trend, or to make something that is “popular”. Many times, an artist doesn’t realize this and loses themselves along the way. However, other times this realization pushes an artist to set trends instead of chasing them – and this is exactly what Jenaux has done. With the release of “Get It On”, his first original in over a year, Jenaux tells us to “try and push yourself creatively till you can’t go any further. Battle your mind with positivity. Seize your inner artistry.” This track is absolute fire, creating a perfect balance between funk, electro, and even a bit of soul. Check it out now, and be sure to support Jenaux!

House | Justin Jay Rocks Out With His Friends on “What Do You Want”
Posted by Tay on April 12, 2016
Woah. Now this isn’t something that I expected from Justin Jay, even though he promised us his debut Fantastic Voyage album was going to feature all sorts of genres across the spectrum when he officially announced the release, but there’s no doubt that I’m a huge fan. “What Do You Want” is the least dance-y record that Mr. Jay has put out, and by dance-y, we’re talking about the underground genres that Justin has dominated for so long. “What Do You Want” showcases a traditional indie rock backbone with Josh Taylor’s gravely vocals perfectly balanced by a smooth melody. Take a peep at it above.

A combination of a warm organic guitar rhythm holstered by a timeless vocal melody, Starley has created nothing short of beautiful with her latest release, “Call On Me.” Using a harmonious percussive aspect to lead into the chorus while maintaining a funky sense of euphoria at the drop, this track gives listeners an oxymoron of feelings from tranquility to the urge to get up and dance. It is very reassuring to stumble across fresh talent, and Starley falls nothing short of that.

The year long wait is over. Jordan Chude is back with the release of his entire project “The Interlude.” The Interlude EP represents an area of in-between for Chude, who is graduating with a Music Business degree at NYU this coming May. With some of life’s biggest decisions fast approaching, The Interlude serves as Chude’s attitudes, thoughts, and opinions going into this next part of his life. Its sound exudes unapologetic confidence from songs such as “Time” and “The Return” as well as retrospect on “Legendary” and “Possible.”

You may not know who Hermes is right now, but that is sure to change within the next few months. The LA-based producer / lyricist, Hermes Lopez, just released his debut Mixed Emotions EP, and we can’t stop bumping it. The five-track EP features a diverse collection of sounds and styles, starting with the lead single from the release, “Stay,” a dance-pop anthem with mainstream appeal. Other tracks like “Hearts on Fire” and “Silhouette” are energetic, big room anthems, while the last track on the EP, “Muevelo,” is a slow, reggaeton jam. Check out the full EP above.
