Artist: MISSING PET
Who: The musical project of Toronto-based singer-songwriter
and multi-instrumentalist Adam Marek Platek that germinated
out of the sludge of the pandemic.
“During the pandemic, I felt like a house pet trapped in an unnatural habitat
of my own making. I realized then that something felt off, and was uncomfortably
missing in the life I had spent more than a decade creating.”
Track: I USED TO CARE
From his brand new excellent
4-track EP Sentimental Germ.
Get ready to move and groove to this
irresistibly funky stomper. Bullseye!

Artist: RONNY TIBBS
Who: Singer-songwriter from Detroit, whose music provides an effervescent
escapism, an effortlessly propulsive and richly evocative road trip in your mind
into a realm where genres blur, nostalgia surges, and eclecticism abounds.
Track: WHAT YOU DO
Cut from upcoming EP Shorthand,
out on October 29.
Tibbs will make your day and your ears with this electrically charged rocker.
Foot on the gas pedal from the kick-off and never looking back. Puisant piece.
Striking stroke.

Band: BARBARISM
Who: 5-piece This Manchester five-piece have been wallowing in the glittery
sludge of late-stage capitalism. They have considered that maybe, just maybe,
we shouldn’t poison the earth and condemn half the population to misery in
order to meet the gurgling whims of several man-babies with yachts.
Track: TIL ZERO
‘Til Zero is a track about the endurance of the human spirit. Born out of years of pain watching as humanity staggers into the 21st century, these words celebrate the tenacity of the joy of life, and try to find some optimism in the face of despair and destitution. The track concludes by embracing the fact that even if the struggle for a better world is utterly fruitless, there is meaning in the attempt.
Amps up, guitars up, energy up. Til Zero is a jacked jackhammer, solid as
a rock, with out-of-control guitars, frenetic vocals, and an insane bass riff.
Bingo!

Band: DEREK SMITH & THE COSMIC VULTURES
Who: Captivating pop/rock outfit from Boston with
5 LPs under their belt. Check them out on Spotify
right here.
Track: SONGBIRD
“Songbird,” with its rolling propulsion and timeless charm, is a compass for compassion; it’s a way forward, through the highs and lows of life, softening the twists and turns and highlighting the good while snuffing out the bad. Its sound rings out as timeless as echoes of ‘70s AM radio gold canvas a yearning spectrum that soars through the songs that shaped us before touching down in the modern day.”
An Americana power ballad that bewitches, captivates, and triggers instant daydreaming.
Back in the days, lighters would turn on en masse when this kind of emotions-absorbing gem came out of the giant speakers at a concert.
Feel the passion here.

📸 Toria Pate
Band: POINTS
Who: Indie trio from the UK
Track: STEAL TO FEED
Track artwork
Rob Sanderson (vocals/bass) said: “From the moment we wrote the music, images of a getaway scene in a post-apocalyptic world came to mind, like in the films ‘The Book of Eli’ and ‘Mad Max’. With that, the song evolved into a futuristic Robin Hood story. The classic tale of stealing from the rich to give to the poor. It made me think how better off we could all be if we helped each other, and even if things are looking extremely bleak, there’s probably someone out there trying to make a difference in one way or another.”
Interpol-like guitars, non-stop vocal passion, forth and back progression.
Jump on this rough roller coaster and enjoy a high-powered ride.

Artist: CARLA AARKE
Who: Songstress from Helsinki
Track: Watercolour
This track also signals her forthcoming
full-length Things I Forgot to Tell You.
Aakre: “‘watercolour’ is an ode to friendship. Sometimes you need someone to remind
you of the beauty around you. With the help of friendship, even in difficult moments, you
can find something you want to cherish.”
Dream-pop at its seducing and entertaining best. watercolour moves swiftly and sensually, circling around magnetic guitar lines and propelled by foot-stomping drum drive, while Aarke‘s arresting vocals roll all over it. Top-drawer tune.
