September 21, 2023 Premiere: Artela shares electrifying electro-pop anthem ‘Why Don’t You Love Me’.

Premiere: Artela shares electrifying electro-pop anthem ‘Why Don’t You Love Me’.

Born in Taiwan and raised between the US and her home nation, London based producer and singer-songwriter Artela released her raging heartbreak-anthem ‘Why Don’t You Love Me’ on the 21st of September 2023. 

Artela’s music is a reaction to her experiences growing up in a conformist society that she didn’t fit into. And her strength as a lyricist shines through the track, as she explores themes of exclusion and societal expectation, drawing upon her own experiences to offer a candid and emotive artistic expression for her listeners to resonate with. 

Fast-Paced, frantic, and emotive, ‘Why Don’t You Love Me’ is an amalgamation of electro-pop extravaganza and deep dance-ready beats that glitch and simmer. Topically exploring themes of love and rejection, Artela reclaims the sense of rejection she experienced throughout her life, turning it into a positive force for change. As a result, her music is for anyone who feels like they don’t fit in, empowering them to embrace their unique and authentic selves.

A remix of ‘Why Don’t You Love Me‘ by fakehalo will be released in October, 2023.

September 14, 2023 Enigmatic musician Totten Bridge shares infectious single ‘Please Dont Love Me’

Enigmatic musician Totten Bridge shares infectious single ‘Please Dont Love Me’

Talented New York musician Totten Bridge unveiled his irresistible single, ‘Please Don’t Love Me,’ through StephJam Music on the 14th of July 2023. Defying the constraints of a single genre, this artist has amassed a remarkable 1.5 million streams across various platforms and has garnered notable recognition from esteemed publications such as Notion Mag, Earmilk, Backseat Mafia, and Medium.

Totten Bridge‘s musical style defies easy categorization, drawing inspiration from both British and American influences that span the spectrum from rock to pop, folk to Motown, and frequent forays into the world of EDM. At the core of his artistry are infectious melodies and meticulously crafted musical arrangements that climax in anthemic sing-along choruses. His lyrical themes orbit around the universal subjects of love and life, communicated with a straightforward and relatable prose, designed to deeply resonate with each listener on an emotional level.

‘Please Don’t Love Me’ delves into these thematic depths. Through clever and poignant lyrics, Totten Bridge contemplates the ephemeral nature of love and our habitual use of the word ‘forever,’ even when we privately recognize its hollowness. This composition fuses Latin rhythms with an EDM heartbeat, embellished with intricate guitar harmonies woven over tropical house progressions. It not only captures the ear with its catchy hooks and relatable content but also boasts an adaptability suited for both radio airwaves and the pulsating atmosphere of a nightclub. One can easily envision it serenading a sun-soaked Caribbean beach or pulsating from a taxi radio in the bustling heart of New York City.

Totten Bridge had this to say: “I wrote “Please Don’t Love Me” as a tongue-in-cheek ode to the joys of living life to the fullest and living and loving in the moment. I wanted the song to be fun and playful and enjoyed while hanging out at the beach with a bunch of friends. I wrote the song on guitar and then built the tracks around the basic guitar.”
