That Late Night Cruise: Wheel drives through the temptation-filled streets on ‘Numeral’

Returning with a hypnotizing new single to show us into the quick-moving streets, Wheel turns the engine on to move us into a night-filled sky that has so much opportunity inside it on ‘Numeral‘.

Wheel is alias of the well-known Swedish electronic music producer and artist Ricard Magnusson. He makes a magnetic blend of ear-glowing sounds that washes away all those pesky self-doubts.

He has made music for adverts (Swedish supercar manufacturer Koenigsegg among others), done remix work for high-profile artists like Barry Adamson, and also produces his own material.” ~ Wheel

Gushing with quality like a tap which is overflowing with fresh water, this is a tremendously intriging track from a highly skilled producer. Featuring a fueled-up single that is sizzling with rubber spinning electricity, you feel like you are in a Fast and the Furious movie with Vin Diesel and ready for any adventure that awaits.

Numeral‘ from the classy Swedish music producer Wheel, is a midnight cruise single for when you are speeding into those temptation-packed streets – which can either bring you back in tune for where you need to go – or tempt you onto a path which you should rather avoid altogether. The beat is rather mysterious and you feel like you need to head outside, to remind yourself of what is truly out there if you look deeply enough for the answers.

https://youtu.be/OFK4oCVJP1o

Swedish artist Tilda Allie has released her latest piece ‘BOI’, a dynamic yet gentle soulful pop tune that lives up to the quintessential influences of RnB and Neo-Soul.

After a mellow start in the first verse, the song builds towards powerful melodies that allow Tilda Allie to explore her best vocal skills. From the second chorus onwards, her voice ranges from silky smooth to bold with just a touch of grit, before opening up into an all-in soul effort that, if you love guitar like I do, will thrill you with genuine blues licks.  By the end of the song, we ‘ve fully transitioned into an electrifying RnB outcome.

Tilda Allie sings about how emotional abuse can lead to the loss of love for oneself. This is part of a 3-stage project that starts with STAGE 1: SADNESS. It’s about time we begin to explore the next ones.
