WhatsOn editor, Adam Humphries has come up with this week’s hitlist of music. Music has a special power which in one place can heal the soul and rejuvenate, also it can bring new rush of hope. Here is the music list of the week for adding it to your playlist and grooving to it.
Baytrees – Baytrees release sticky and sensual new single ‘Lover’!
Baytrees new single which is a nice slow down pace and is reminiscent of 80’s/90’s smooth R&B. Though Lover is an intimate number and echoes sounds similar to old school love songs that 80’s/90’s teens grew up with it’s still one of those tracks that you can’t help but enjoy to some degree.
As a love song it’s got the intimate lyrics which when you hear a few times over sounds as though the tune itself is a 1-2-1 between yourself and Baytrees themselves
“One touch one kiss one dance”
Chloey Rose – Epic new CHLOEY ROSE summer pop ballad ‘Golden Sun’ out today!
Now what do you think happens if you were to mix the musical elements of Kate Bush, Taylor Swift, The Cranberries and Dido, this little number by upcoming musician and singer Chloey Rose. Her tune Golden Sun is an example of brilliant female rock in itself, listen enough times you’ll see why her music is in a similar musical vein to artists such as Dido, Kate Bush and Taylor Swift
Definitely one for the playlist and has that upbeat feel to it and it’s not too complex that you can’t sing along with it
“Feels like I’m fading/Reaching for the light/Focused, ready”
Daniel Carson – VIDEO: Stellar cast of musicians on Daniel Carlson’s trippy “Light Lab”
Music maestro Daniel Carlson’s next tune Light Lab may sound like something of an upsetting heartbreaker of woe but it has something a bit more defined about it. The pace and tone of the song itself has a sombre feel to it yet it has its touching moments. When you listen to it after a few times it has a sort of empathic feel to it, a bit you’re having a crappy time of it all but I can sympathize to some degree
The lyrics are just so cleverly written as it’s one of those where they clearly come from emotional places deep within and about self reflection
“It takes a while to rewire/it takes a while to remember”
Lifecycle – LIFECYCLE channel early 90s rave with wobbly FM synth bass and pounding tribal rhythms! No Stopping
As part of their Colour set Lifecycle have unleashed their latest single which pays homage to early 90’s dance house music. As someone who grew up in time to listen to groups like 808 Pacific State and The Shamen it’s certainly delivered on that note. No Stopping is on a similar wavelength to the sounds it references yet it manages to keep one foot in the present.
As you’d expect with 90’s dance music both the lyrics and tune beat are both uplifting and have that oomph which give it that little bit extra.
“No Stopping/no Stopping/no Stopping you/ no Stopping you/no Stopping you tonight “
