Posted on 24 December 2021

Smoothly conveying to us his 4th single that follows on from his previous single ‘Hands Up, Ale Galata continues to dream so vividly that it actually shocks him at times as what he sees appears so real on ‘Wake Up‘ (feat. Marveni).

Ale Galata is a Regensburg, Germany-based indie-pop solo singer-songwriter and drummer who makes music that shows you his background from performing since he could barely walk.

”My goal is to reach people with my music. I want them to laugh, cry, dance, think or just not think at all, but also let go.” ~ Ale Galata

With a substantial vocal entourage that gallops into your awaiting soul as soon as you press play, Ale Galata sings with such intensity and meaning that is such a fantastic listen and showcases his always-evolving abilities.

‘Wake Up‘ (feat. Marveni) from the experienced Regensburg, Germany-based indie-pop solo singer-songwriter Ale Galata, is a track that reminds you of classic songs from the 90s. He sings with a flourishing technique – as he delves deeper into what he sees while his eyes are closed – so that somehow he may save his love from the carnage that is transpiring. This is a cinematic adventure that shall dive into your consciousness, as you wonder how accurate your dreams actually are.

A&R Factory Present: Chasing Moonlight

Posted on 16 August 2016

Ten years ago a band like Chasing Moonlight couldn’t have existed. The alternative pop/rock duo encapsulates everything about making music in the age of self-producing & genre mashing. Working day & night, they built up their own studios—becoming producers, engineers & designers on their own. Using infinite colors from their creative palette, they have carved out their own genre—optimistic fuzz—an anthemic pop rock sound with hints of hip-hop & dubstep. From drums lines, crowd screams, distorted synths & passionate vocals—their sound is as if a piano has fallen down a technicolor staircase, leaving it off-kilter yet a bit more human.

The band is a meeting of two universes—Zeke Hunter & Brett Steinberg, both award winning artists who’ve been featured on radio, such as The Howard Stern Show, KISS 95.7 (iHeart Radio), Sirius XM, Hot 103.9 “Freshly Squeezed” & 104.1 WMRQ, & featured on national publications, such as PureVolume, Popdust & HYPEFRESH. Their differences paradoxically complement each other & their music reflects their essence, yet of a side they’ve never seen before. Hunter & Steinberg have always been attracted to collaboration with one another starting with the first time they met 10 years ago—immediately starting a project with a massive debut in Brooklyn the following week.

As artists who have delved into many different music, film & stage projects, they have a hunger to create lasting, boundary-pushing art. The only compass they use to guide them through new sonic territory is the pursuit of creating unique sounds with emotional resonance. Their music tells a deeply personal story that has the tenderness to get you through the darkest nights, but the drive to cut through the noise of our generation—can you hear it?
