The End

Take a lush leap into etherealism with Etherdene’s indie synth-pop exploration of aftermaths, The End

Singer, songwriter, producer and all-around ephemeral aural icon Etherdene reached the paragon of indie electro-pop perfection with their latest single, The End.

Titularly, the release is definitive as they come; sonically, the single is limitless. The ethereal air, which breathes just as much through the transcending tones of the vocal lines as the scintillating synth lines that pay tribute to the new wave trend, is intoxicating from the first emotionally charged progression.

As the lyrics explore the aftermath of a breakup, proving that the love that once endured never dies but takes another form after the final acts of affection, Etherdene laces the bass, which wraps around the stridently momentous synthesised percussion, with lush heartfelt synergy to achingly compelling effect.

Imagine Taylor Swift simultaneously meeting the styles of Enya and Cigarettes After Sex, and you’ll get an idea of how affectingly cathartic and cutting-edge Etherdene’s tender tour de force is.

The End was officially released on March 20th; stream the single on Spotify.

Luna Falling – The End: Bio-Mechanical Post-Hardcore

If Blue October hailed from 100 years in the future, their fervid firestorms would resound with the same pioneering panache as the hits from the Ohio-based outfit, Luna Falling.

The End relatably signifies the collective state of discontent in a time when we’re all sick of the threat that the curtains could close at any given moment. The futuristically thunderous drum sequences rail across the synths that give this feat of post-hardcore a potent shot of bio-mechanical flair while creating a glitchy platform for the cascades of aching emotion that are all too easy to resonate with.

Will Carlson notably knows how to pull a massive production together. Hit play, and you will be consumed by the tightly melodic kaleidoscopic furore.

The End is now available to stream on Spotify. Follow Luna Falling via Instagram.

All Over Again: North Carolina’s Lil Jeep knows that this should be ‘The End’

https://soundcloud.com/user-4kjay/the-end-prod-morin?ref=clipboard&p=i&c=1&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

Produced by morin, Lil Jeep wonders why he keeps on taking his lover back when they showed so much disloyalty on his bass-thumping new single ‘The End‘.

Jadon Hope aka Lil Jeep is a youthful Rose Hill, North Carolina-based indie alt-rock solo artist who makes an honest mixture of lyrically-introspective music for us to let out our emotions with.

Keeping things short and sweet with a speaker-hugging new single filled with regret, Lil Jeep rides through the storm and shows us his lyrical arsenal with a loaded affair on the mic for us to ponder. This is a determined young man who isn’t going to let go of his love, no matter what the intentions of others are.

The End‘ from the Rose Hill, North Carolina-based underground indie alt-rock musician Lil Jeep, is that all-too-common story about wanting to be with the perfect version of the person who you care about so much, that you are willing to unwisely look past the red flags that are so obvious. Performed with a gritty edge from an improving artist still finding his ideal sound, this is an encouraging effort that has you wondering if you can really trust your true love.

Finding that closure: New York City singer-songwriter Javarr drops ‘The End’ visuals

The End‘ from Javarr is the true story about how dealing with closure can either keep you stuck into what happened, or whether you decide to accept the circumstances, and move on to a fresh start.

Brooklyn, New York singer-songwriter Javarr returns with his signature smooth style and is highly impressive here on this new single. His voice is vibrant and honest, he hits the high notes that so many can’t, while never overstretching or straining his vocals. The fantastic falsetto energy blows in hot and you find yourself swaying along and reminiscing about breakups and how they can either go well or badly.

”They say closure happens right after you accept that letting go is more important than protecting a fantasy of how the relationship/friendship could have been”.- Javarr

The visuals are so real and shows how the classy way to end things is so hard to do, but necessary. The pain is there but you both need to move on and start fresh after healing first.

Brooklyn’s Javarr sends us a message that needs to be heard on ‘The End‘. In life, being happy inside has to be number one and holding onto things, no matter how much you miss them, only sucks you down and does nothing to help you long-term.
