GRAMMY WINNING BAND OK GO UNVEIL BRAND NEW SINGLE AND MUSIC VIDEO “A STONE ONLY ROLLS DOWNHILL”
The song is just incredible. The high tone vocals hit the exact pitch for the melodies and balance each other perfectly. For me, I just loved it within the first 30 seconds

Nature TV announce debut album & release new single ‘One Step Forward’
Watch
I have never heard of Nature TV but I am open to hearing what they’re about and listening to One Step Forward I’m beginning to develop a liking for them and their sound. The video is a nice little homage to Top Of The Pops
Griff – Last Night’s Mascara
Watch
It’s been an a few years since Black Hole and it’s fair to say Griff’s come a long way since. Mascara has shown that Griff is definitely an artist who is developing a lot since 2019.
HENGE – Alien Prog-Ravers Release “Slingshot/Hypersleep” || New Album – out 31 Jan
WATCH
“SLINGSHOT/HYPERSLEEP”
Something of an interesting video I have got to say, the melodies themselves are just as interesting. The electronic riffs bare some similarly from a 90’s video game which makes the sound just that bit more infectious. A good tune overall with all hints of Sci-fi
