August 21, 2023 Liz Cass releases new disco-influenced single ‘Too Hot’

Liz Cass releases new disco-influenced single ‘Too Hot’

Liz Cass just released her brand new single ‘Too Hot’, a scorching pop track which glistens with an 80s disco shimmer as she casts away fickle past relationships among its infectious funky groove. ‘Too Hot’, which was produced by William Dinesen and mixed and mastered by DARGZ (Moses Boyd, Flyte, Poppy Ajudha), follows the release of her critically acclaimed debut album ‘The Words.

Earlier this year, Liz also shared the ‘Teardrops’ EP, a choice selection of songs from Womack and Womack, Joy Division, Mazzy Star and Rialto, which she covered with her unique touch as her broad vocals paired with soaring synths and downtempo beats. “Tender and tranquilising… plays on her vintage tones and ambience,” said Notion of the release, while Wonderland wrote, “Liz continues to captivate listeners and establish herself as a rising star.

Regarding her latest song, Liz says, “‘Too Hot’ is the first single from my next project. It’s inspired by those fiery and quick to burn out romances that lack any meaningful foundation. A lot of fun and excitement but never lasting. I used to seek that out, but now just the idea of it is exhausting to me!”

Esteemed LA-based electronic producer Tristan De Liège has teamed up with emerging jazz band Jambal for their new single, ‘Uncertainties’, released on the 4th of August via Tristan De Liège X Jambal Music. The single, reminiscent of artists like Arms and Sleepers, St Germain, Azymuth, and Ezra Collective, is the first release from their forthcoming album Enterprises of Great Pith and Moment.

‘Uncertainties’ immediately announces itself as being contemporary, a Jazz fusion of old and new. With intricate rhythm sections and modern synths in the background, it builds and builds. The trumpet is eventually made the star of the show, teasing and building in a rather improvised and playful way. Its crescendo is emotive and longing, but calm too. Like things aren’t all right, but they may be eventually. It sounds like cigarettes on a dark New York Street. A fine display of jazz versatility and individual musical performance.

Tristan De Liège and Jambal shared: “Uncertainties was one of the last tunes of the album we finished. We initially struggled to find a direction that everyone agreed on, but eventually, through collective improvisation, the song became divided into two sections: the minimalistic instrumentation for the first half and the anthemic character in the second. The song represents the feeling of uncertainty of life when you’re making big decisions or starting new projects, and you feel a building sense of excitement but you’re not sure what the outcome will be.”

New York-born, Berlin-based musician Marlena Dae has released ‘No Place To Hide’, the lead single from her debut EP entitled A Delicate Storm via the Good Luck Kid imprint.

The song narrates the story of a girl wandering the streets alone at night desperate to escape the reality she lives in and it’s a stunning introduction to the songstress’ talent and ability to make music that drifts over you in waves. 

Marlena Dae says, “I feel I can relate to this longing for freedom in ‘No Place To Hide.’ Trying to escape one’s reality was definitely a topic for me at the time during quarantine. I feel for this main character who is aware of the dangers that lurk around her, yet she is determined to get to where she needs to be.”
