Soulful singer-songwriter Jazzu shares a searing single ‘Razor Blade’

Timeless artist Jazzu unveiled her new single ‘Razor Blade’ on 18 October 2024, via the Creative Industries imprint. Over the course of her profound two decade career, Jazzu has amassed over 50 million streams across platforms, received an MTV Award and won Best Album, Best Music Video and Best Pop Artist at the M.A.M.A Music Awards in 2019. Additionally, she has graced stages with Grammy Award-winning Swedish band Koop, and notably opened for Rita Ora earlier this year in Lithuania. Jazzu has been featured in major Lithuanian publications 15min, Delfi, Lrytas and Eastern European publication The Baltic Times. In her native Lithuania, Jazzu is considered a timeless icon. She has been touring her Welcome concert annually since 2019. She has been a judge on Lithuanian X-Factor for many years. For the making of ‘Razor Blade’, she has collaborated with the esteemed London-based producer Anthony Marshall (Britney Spears, Sheila Fergusson (3 Degrees), Nelly Furtado). This fruitful partnership will see more songs emerging over the coming months. Jazzu is influenced by the likes of Moloko, Amy Winehouse and Whitney Houston with her distinct Pop and R&B soundscape sure to be enjoyed by fans of soulful pop icons such as Adele, Amy Winehouse and Tyla.

‘Razor Blade’ opens as a poignant ballad, showcasing Jazzu’s impressive vocal range and emotional depth. As foreboding drums and cinematic orchestral swells intensify, the song builds to a passionate climax, supported by epic choral backing vocals. It then fades into a quiet, brooding outro, gently guiding the listener out of the powerful experience.

Jazzu shares: “When I sing this song, it’s like a ceremony for me – I sing all my pain away, acknowledging that I’m strong enough to always choose me and keep my heart safe. I’ll never let anybody hurt it again.”

The music video reflects the confusion, pain and anger of heartbreak and betrayal brilliantly. In it, Jazzu is seen trying to find her way out of an empty apartment building which is contrasted by shots of her in a maze also trying to find her way out. The symbolism mirrors feelings of loss, and not knowing how to start over after experiencing an emotionally turbulent end to a relationship.

Dave Curl – Soulful singer-songwriter releases ‘Don’t Talk Anymore’ Single & Video

Independent Australian-Swiss singer-songwriter and producer Dave Curl releases his iconic single & video ’Don’t Talk Anymore’. He recently released a unique sophomore LP, Lockdown – Seven Nations, on February 23, 2024. Boasting over 1.5 million streams on Spotify, airplay on numerous indie radio stations in Germany and abroad. With performances in the respected Kulturkoller Club and around 20 other locations, Dave Curl has shown no signs of slowing down. The prolific performer has released nearly two dozen singles, two EPs, and the 2021 full-length album, Introducing. His newest project promises listeners an infectious and thought-provoking concoction of rock and roll.

With a glitchy introduction ‘Don’t Talk Anymore’ beckons the listener with bluesy guitar and an edgy bass line with a syncopated drum groove in a classic tone. Dave Curl offers up an electrifying rock track connected to the times. In the animated lyric video we are introduced to Dave in stillness, observing reality through virtually reality goggles. With scenes of life unfolding behind him, he identifies the indifference a tech-infused lifestyle creates.

Dave Curl shared: ‘Don’t Talk Anymore’ captures the modern epidemic of disconnection, as people immerse themselves in smartphones rather than meaningful conversation. Inspired by a train journey through the Italian part of Switzerland, Dave Curl was struck by the eerie silence of fellow passengers glued to their screens. Expecting lively chatter, he instead found an irritating scene of silence. This moment sparked the idea of ‘Don’t Talk Anymore’. The song serves as an ironic reminder of the importance of meaningful communication in an increasingly virtual world.

Nastiya Kai – Nomadic soul and boundless musical spirit releases a wild & raw new single and video ‘Demons’.

Emerging alt pop sensation Nastiya Kai shares another single and music video, ‘Demons’ via her imprint Nastiya Kai Music. The single offers a taste of what is to come with her debut album, Demon Era, slated for release on May 31st, 2024. Her recent singles garnered support from NOTION Magazine, CLASH Magazine, Wonderland Magazine and EARMILK as well as landing her an interview with Numéro and airplay on Flux FM. With her music accumulating more than 141 500 streams and counting, Nastiya Kai is carving a place for herself in pop’s prolific world, and she’s here to stay.

‘Demons’ is a glitchy and upbeat ode to the dizzying experience of bypassing somebody’s red flags as you fall in love with them. Nastiya Kai creates depth with catchy vocal layering coupled with an infectious dance pop beat, occasionally giving way to passages of haunting ambience. The accompanying video is a neon-clad chronicle of Nastiya and a lover, steamy yet tender and intimate, and at times painful.

Nastiya Kai shared: “’Demons’ is a love song, contrary to how it sounds. It’s about loving someone so

much you keep ignoring the red flags over and over again and at some point you stop fighting and just give in. It’s also about rushing into something without having the time to think things over so it’s a little more fast paced compared to most tracks on the album.”

Burr Island – Alternative Indie Folk duo, from the West Country release new single ‘Your Eyes, My Eyes’.

London born and based acoustic folk duo Burr Island are set to release their latest single, ‘Your Eyes, My Eyes’, on May 10th via Left Foot Records. The track garnered support from UK-based music and fashion magazine CLASH Magazine and airplay BBC 6 Radio’s Cerys. ‘Later’ follows the recent release of their fifth single, ‘Our Home’. The band has received praise from industry giants like Robert Plant and Noel Gallagher. With 250,000 streams across all platforms for their first four releases and their debut album on the way in 2024, the future looks promising for the Burr Island boys.

‘Your Eyes, My Eyes’ is a sweet piano ballad full of feeling, an easy yet poignant listen. The pair offer beautiful lilting vocal lines with warm choral backing vocals straight out of a CSNY album. The track is timeless and tender, an ode to the devotion felt in all of love’s forms.

Burr Island divulged: “This is a love song for anyone who wants it. Whether you’re a grandmother cherishing the time with your young grandchild, friends with an unbreakable bond, star-crossed lovers sinking into each other’s eyes or somebody trying to communicate with the loved one they’ve lost. Like most of our songs, it was written on guitar and it remained a guitar song until the very last minute. We were never fully happy with the old version and felt the song needed a gentler tone. The brilliant Nikolaj Torp Larsen (The Specials) agreed to play piano for the new version and as soon as we heard his performance, we knew it was the one. We feel that sonically it’s added another texture to the album.”
