PLEEG and Eyezic’s new song Is elaborate and Innovative

Good collaborations require a connection between artists. There are often hitches in workflow or creative direction throughout the process, although, from what we can hear, producers PLEEG and Eyezic had no problems there, pulling off the feat without much effort. Titled ‘Dead Weight’, their latest single sees two producers from different worlds come together to mix French and American influences in a maelstrom of sound.

Beyond dynamic, the Quality Goods Records-signed single morphs constantly. One moment crashes fracture into a million fragments, the next we’re thrown into a tango with Latin-type beats. All of this is neatly packaged in the cleanest mix. Upfront and personal, the track begins with a sustained background of dark bass that contrasts with stunning, emotive vocals, which speak to the subject of romantic turmoil or disinterest even. Eyezic refers to “moody dark lyrics”, and his description is perfect.

Nature explorer and musician Land Of Trees unveils the video for ‘See The Fire Dancing’ via Land Of Trees Music. The zestful musician first used poetry to express his love for nature, afterwards this love was put into his music.

The video begins with a shot of the scattered lighting of the Varberg Theater, which twinkles like fireflies and stars in a cloudless night sky. The dimed back area of the theatre, together with the lighted stage, give the video a futuristic quality that is akin to a spaceship that can only be found billions of years into the future. The thought that comes to mind is how connected and similar the future is to the present and also how the past is connected to the future because fire and light shine bright in all civilisations and will most likely shine in the same manner for future generations.

Land Of Trees discusses the chosen venue for the video: “For most of the band it was the first time seeing Varberg Theater in all of its glory. It’s a well-preserved old theatre with a lot of soul. After setting everything up with lights, cameras and microphones, it was just a matter of actually recording the live session”.

Norwegian pop producer Sindresu shares his ‘Daydream’

Norwegian electronic producer Sindresu has shared his new pop song ‘Daydream’. The record reminds us of the emotional tunes of the mega-hit producer Kygo. It’s as if the record begins in the middle, and we are thrown into the deep end, left to swim in the producer’s optimistic production. Built around a strong lead vocal, all of the instruments work together to serve a sweet and chewy centre, making for a song that is both concise and clean.

Stream on Spotify – iTunes

Turning a negative into a positive, Sindresu tells us about the obstacles that inspired the upbeat track, saying that “daydream is about escaping reality during dark times and is inspired by a difficult period in my life. I experienced serious burnout, which left me with declined health for a time. This song tells the story of being stuck in an unfulfilling life and dreaming of better days”.

Based in the capital of Sweden, the Stockholm resident has been involved in the world of music since he was 5 years old. As a child, he learned to play the violin and continued to explore sound by learning to jam 6 strings. With experience playing the guitar, violin, and even piano, he now tinkers with bits of Tropical House and bobs of Pop.

Producers HAELIUM and Kasztan have teamed up to create a new single ‘DOR’. The collaboration has been released under Stemina Recordings, a brand-new record label that Kasztan is spearheading, and sees the two artists pour their creativity into an emotive record that progresses from a bare-boned, percussive beginning to a fleshed-out, multi-layered climax, undergoing a lifetime of growth in just under 4 minutes.

Stream / Download: HAELIUM x Kasztan – ‘DOR’

An award-winning musician, Kasztan is a French Electronic producer who has toured with the French music group M83. More than a stage moniker, he has composed music for the screen, scoring The Illusionists documentary among other televised projects.

HAELIUM, also of French origin, is both a producer and classically trained pianist. It is unsurprising that he names composer and fellow friend of the keys Jon Hopkins as a wellspring from which he draws inspiration.

Kasztan tells us about the debut of the label and more, saying, “My manager and I decided to launch this new label Stemina Recordings. I’m super happy that the first release is a collaborative work with Gabriel/Haelium. I love his work”.
