New Tunes 17.9.2020

Hello music lovers! 📻 🎧 🎤 🎶 🎵 🎼 📢

These #newtunes deal with a little more different music than usual. What I've been listening to in recent days is more alternative or music that doesn't exactly follow current music trends. And some don’t like it either. That's a fact.

Exhalants - The Thorn You Carry In Yr Side

This, a new post-hardcore trio from Austin, Texas, USA, is hitting. Sharp, brutal, angry, and loud. The clean and clear sound dimension of DIY music that will probably never be commercial but is honest.

Freak Heat Waves - Busted

The retro-electro sound of this newly discovered duo from Montreal and Victoria reminds me of Kraftwerk and their engaged pieces.

Emma-Jean Thackray - Yang

She has been described by RBMA as "one of the UK's most exciting new jazz artists". They were not mistaken. I came across her coincidentally, as usual, I clicked on the link somewhere. She works as an arranger, music director, educator, soloist, and as a bandleader with her Walrus quintet. Connoisseurs say she will be one of the biggest names in jazz. If you follow the news in Nu-jazz, it’s worth listening to.

Arab Strap - The Turning of Our Bones

This modernist-horror story by a Scottish indie electro-acoustic band focuses on drink, drugs, and of course sexuality. The video is interesting, a collage of B-horror movies from the sixties, and in the foreground is a vocal, a recitation, based on a likable more instrumental Victorian melody.

Kevin Morby - Harlem River

This is probably not an alter piece (given the number of views on YT) but it definitely deserves to be remembered. The musical atmosphere that storyteller Kevin Morby presents to us deserves to be listened to in terms of musical virtuosity.
