Lajze brings the world something so steamy it might burn fingers with Secret life of a Subflower

Posted on 1 July 2023

Fresh from previously intertwining our moods on Glue, Lajze has dropped something rather desirable and spine-healing to consume all fascinated minds with on her latest release, Secret life of a Subflower.

Lajze is an experimental London-based British/Polish singer-songwriter and composer who loves fusing in electropop to pulse our joints and give that spark back to the lost generation.

”I want my music to tease and suck you in, put you in a trance. But also with my lyrics, I want to express female sexuality, boldly and delicately at the same time. I hope it empowers others, especially females to dig deep, get to know themselves, find their kinks, and explore them.” ~ taken from Lajze’s IG post here

Stunning all quiet hearts with a piercing sound, Lajze sizzles the snakes into their corner with an X-rated track to scare many and excite more to have fun again.

Secret life of a Subflower from the multi-creative Polish/British wonder Lajze is a seduction-packed experience to move even the most conservative souls amongst us. The lyrics are ear-tingling and the beat is rather intoxicating to the fullest possible realm, to stimulate emotions which were thought extinct before.

If you like it sexy unique and reloaded with desire, this might be the door you wish to open.

LOVEBREAKERS RELEASE THEIR SINGLE ‘EYE ROLLER’

Posted on 26 April 2020

You can never say that the Britons can’t rock, it’s actually very much their cup of tea!

Lovebreakers set the example with their first single ‘Eye Roller’, an easy-listening alternative rock ballad that hints to a full-length album that apparently the Birmingham quartet is currently working on.

If you like Oasis’ and The Replacements’ open chords, ‘Eye Roller’ will satisfy you with its crunch strumming and melodic riffs overlaid on an upbeat pop tempo that makes your head cheerfully swing back and forth to the rhythm. Indie-ish (dare I say) vocals and honest and straightforward lyrics, you can’t help but sing along “guess what’s over, your eye-roller.”

Head over to Spotify and hit play on ‘Eye Roller.’

Fern has dropped Fast Forever

Posted on 24 April 2020

Fern has dropped their latest single ‘For Forever’ this combination of Soft Rock intertwine to create this compelling and unique piece.

Starting off with that low and slow-paced instrumental that light riff on the guitar and the tap on the bass drum, having that Rock essence flow through the instrumentation but keeping it mellow throughout. It’s more on the quiet side, embracing the smooth style that Fern has to offer.

The vocal ranges are insane, the way his voice adapts perfectly to the rhythm that collides in the background is what makes this song stand out. Having that same slow pace as he sings and keeping everything at a certain volume, which makes you hear the gravelly tone in the vocals.

Every element that has been added into this piece, is what makes Fern so unique. He adds his own twist onto the ever-growing sound of music and really modernises it in an incredible way.

Be sure to listen to this one by Fern, you won’t regret it. We can’t wait to see what he does next!

Listen to Fern, For Forever by heading on over to Spotify now.

Hip-Hop Duo Raph x TT Release Newest Single ‘Roll With’

Posted on 10 January 2018

When you’re in an audacious state of mind, you could barely miss the feeling this nice song dole out on a regular each second; it’s ever-stunning as the crescent moon.

This is a smash hip-hop rap song whose delivery is very smooth; just like when the “silk” kisses the “satin” in the pristine air, you’ll surely be dazzled by this feature alone when you listen to this song.

Comprising of two creative individuals hailing from Birmingham, UK, Raphael and Timon, Raph x TT write, produce and master their music themselves, allowing them full creative autonomy and ensuring that the end product is exactly what they set it out to be. Raph and TT can typically rap about the simplest version of any given idea and they actually look beyond themselves. TT arrives for his turn on the carousel, and he skillfully painted us a beautiful dreamscape with his style of flow and deep sexy voice, this was the defining moment for me in this song.

Their newest single exemplifies the versatility of the duo, with a catchy R&B piano hook overlayed with British hip-hop lyrics. Taking inspiration from the likes of Stormzy, Not3s and Lotto Boys and even from main stream artist Ed Sheeran, Roll With is British urban hip-hop with a twist.

Raph and TT are more likely gonna be categorized to be in the league of Wiley, JME and Skepta because they somewhat have same musical sound and style with them.

The laydown of an enjoyable piano sound that doubles as a chill track and a groovy record makes the song even more memorable. The production is also a note-worthy to be mentioned as one of the nice features of this track. Raph and TT meshed so well to exude same flash velocity of technical brilliance in this song.

This is a great song and y’all should go check it out.
