Posted by VMan on September 16, 2021
Southern-born, west coast based recording artist “Tlona Tiabi” pronounced (Tee-loan-uh / Tee-yah-be) is mastering his sound “Trap Soul”. Never Ever Land sails on a stripped-back mellow beat; its narrower mystic music production has a dreamy effect. The track is personal to the artist; his deep thinking and connection with his birthplace give insight into another world of relationship experiences involving family, friends, and
lovers. The music video unlocks an ethereal illusion into TIona Tiabi’s creative process. Be sure to check out Never Ever Land.
“Never Ever Land” is about Tlona iabi’s birthplace. NeverEverLand is a floating island in space where there are no
boundaries. It is known as a place where positive escapism is a way of life. The people overn the island, and all live at peace with themselves & one another eternal life. Everything on the island is organic from the alkaline rivers, the psilocybin flowers and the THC clouds. Never Ever Land has numerous suns & moons which makes this difficult to keep track of time”.

Posted by VMan on January 19, 2021
Rising Berlin-based alternative R&B singer-songwriter/producer/artist Mulay just dropped this enticing new music video for her song “Antracyte” ahead of her forthcoming EP that is dropping via Groenland Records. Tune into the sassy single above now and keep your eyes on Mulay, she’s got something special going on here. Read a quote from her after the jump!
“ANTRACYTE is the intro and title track to my debut EP. It’s the soundtrack to the birth of a villain and captures the moment of complete honesty to yourself about the awareness of doing wrong by the ones you love while feeling the inability to turn around. It’s about the desire to taste forbidden fruits, to cross and explore what lies beyond the line and the self-empowering feeling of playing by your own rules defeating the fear of consequences and the power of moral concepts. ANTRACYTE tells a story of contradicting emotions, a story of love, lust, pain and a longing for more. It’s about facing your own darkness and sins, about self-revelation, emancipation and about paying its price, resigning to your fate.”

Alternative, Pop | Conal Kelly Drops”Control”
Posted by VMan on December 6, 2020
Bristol, UK based Conal Kelly releases his new track, “Control.” With shimmering synths, dynamic percussion and a grooving bass providing an already irresistible soundscape, the song grows even more magnetic on its outro. Conal is a new name to me but I was blown away by this new single. Check out “Control” above now and read a quote from Mr. Kelly below now!
“The writing/recording of this song was the most I have ever consciously pushed myself out of my comfort zone… it can sometimes be easy to find yourself a little boxed in when you’re writing and recording/mixing every part of a track, but this was my most determined attempt to break away from the habits I’d formed. The whole thing took a couple of months to complete, but the finished track is something I’m really proud of and can hopefully show some diversity in my songwriting! The vocal part really drives the song in my opinion…this is also the first time an outro has been my favourite aspect of a song I’ve written, I love that ending vocal hook.” – Conal Kelly

“Booty Sweat is a track that is inspired by a global pandemic club-goers face today. The track itself is driven by a thumpy, yet groovy bass line, and followed by a low pitched voice that cuts through the mix to lock down the groove. It is guaranteed to instill perspiration between moist thighs worldwide.”
