Гибкий Чаплинъ returns with fascinating cartoon video for ‘Hostess’

Гибкий Чаплинъ returns with the fascinating and brilliantly-made cartoon video for ‘Hostess‘.

An intriguing video to match this wandering Jazz-Indie Rock single. This song was originally released in 2019 and the song has been brought to life with the unique animation from cartoonist Alexander Bubnov. Telling the story of a man who gets blown into a strange cafe by a cruel Autumnal wind, he is drawn into the strange world of the other diners as he waits for his meal of ‘Summer Full‘. Drawing from the artistic styles of Picasso, the video perfectly pairs the art with the jazz. I love how this video is made and it is such a fun watch. The detail is fantastic and this is something I have never seen before. It captures life perfectly and about how alcohol can get a bit much.

An independent band from Ukraine, Гибкий Чаплинъ (also known as Gibkiy Chaplin) was formed in 2015. Over the past five years they have released five studio albums including one on vinyl and have amassed an impressive following over social media. Creators of eclectic musical styles, their sound ranges from alternative, art-rock, jazz-rock, and rock, to poetry, neoclassical music, indie, experimental, and instrumental compositions. A defining characteristic of the group is that their art is inspired by the spirit of the special places they visit and in which they create and record their music – Kyiv, London, Paris, Venice, and Prague.

Гибкий Чаплинъ raises the standard of videos on ‘Hostess‘. This is a pre-covid look into what happens at night and how money, women and drink can create quite a intoxicating mood that can go either way. This is a terrific video that will inspire others to make different videos like this and not do the normal.

USA Pop singer Shawn O’Donnell releases heart-breaking debut ”Quicksand”

That feeling when you care about someones well-being so much and how you witness their self-destruction right in front of your eyes. This is a tough feeling and can really cause long-lasting mental carnage. You try so hard but don’t seem to get through to them.

Singer-songwriter Shawn O’Donnell from West Chester, Pennsylvania has just achieved a major milestone. He has just released his debut original track ”Quicksand” and its a marvel to behold. The song is so well executed and sung with such passion that I applaud his efforts. He has a great voice and the song is so sad and inspiring at the same time. We are taken on a journey by Shawn as he describes his pain at seeing someone he cares about hurt themselves with their addiction. He tries his best to communicate but feels like he is going through quicksand to help them. This is a quality single and such a relevant topic that we can all understand. Shawn is a young singer with loads of potential and big things await if he can stay focused and keep on coming up with releases like this.

KxngQuizzle Releases Hip Hop Track “Kxngs Speech 05”

https://youtu.be/h-bfLM05QNI

KxngQuizzle is a hip hop artist and producer with a clear vision and a groovy sound that will have you bopping your head along with the music. Apart from this though, his approach to music also features a blend of old school influences mixed with a modern touch. This can evidently be observed in his latest track “Kxngs Speech 05” which not only delivers a very rhythmically active rap flow with suitable changes in vocal tone but also incorporates the modern use of auto-tune throughout the ending section. This not only tells us more about KxngQuizzle’s influences but also presents new ideas from the beginning of the song, through to the end. The music video also adds to the character of the music and features KxngQuizzle’s having a good time with his friends.

“Kxngs Speaech 05” starts off with a mellow melodic intro which allows the vocal rhythmic play to stand out before establishing the groovy beat that provides that old school vibe. Throughout the whole song the vocal performance and delivery remain convincing with a strong  bold character that proves the messages behind the lyrics. Clearly life struggles do bring out the best in KxngQuizzle and his music shows this is true!

Trippy, Edgy, Taut And Strange…Scere Doesn’t Follow The Rules

Built on a slow, meandering  pop pulse and sitting somewhere between an old soul record and a trippy, down tempo urban groove, Because I is a wonderfully intriguing song. It is non-conformist and complicated, textured yet leaving space to generate atmosphere and anticipation, it is glitchy, mercurial, full of pent up energy and more than anything it is brilliantly different.

Not quite addictive enough to be pop, not fast enough to be a dance record it creates its own genre, one which skirts trip-hop, tips its hat to the likes of Kate Bush or Tori Amos but which ultimately is so different that it fits into a genre all of its own. There are not many acts that you can say that about but the  enigmatic Scere is certainly one of them.

Menon – Indecisive: There’s No Sound Like a Man Scorned

https://youtu.be/9odqJCDnQMc

Dubai Hip Hop legend Menon’s latest hit indecisive is now available to stream and download across all devices. Released earlier this month, the talented Hip Hop artist created his anthem with his latest track by fusing poetic expression with harsh beats. He uses Indecisive to explore the reminiscent feelings that accompany toxic relationships as he bounces back and forth from bitter, to hostile, to affectionate and reminiscent.

The track has already deservedly achieved instant notoriety from fans who haven’t been able to get enough of the rap artists uniquely refreshing sound. Each of his tracks has a raw and relatable meaning which he animates through his music to create a stunningly thematic styling, with breakdowns that will leave you reeling in his emotions.  Each track is polished to perfection after being expertly mixed and mastered by RAYAN. Menon has us all hooked on his apocalypse invoking sound.

With the ability to make such a hard-hitting debut, it seems highly likely that we’ll hear more from the talented artist’s hyped up sound. Earlier tracks such as My Flex went viral with fans nationwide.

Miklow And Xolow Deliver Intense New Single



Sometimes it isn’t about breaking new ground, sometimes it is satisfying enough to go over familiar territory but just focus, intensify, distill, in short make it better. And that is what Miklow and Xolow do with their latest single For What. Yes, we find ourselves pretty much in a comfort zone here, the sort of vibe and sound that forms the central core of the modern rap experience, but rarely have those words and beats been delivered with such ferocity, such vitriol and such world weary passion.

They manage to balance the questioning and underdog view of life with an optimism, a reminder that things can always improve and then they bolt that onto the most infectious chorus you have heard in a long time. There is a move in urban music these days to head into more progressive territory, to subvert the form and try to create something boundary pushing and new. What Miklow and Xolow realise is that those boundaries can only expand for so long before the whole thing bursts and collapses in on itself. When that happens they will be standing proud having captured the centre ground for themselves.
