Nimino – Milo Evans

Milo Evans [pseudonym] nimino

Nimino is on the brink of a tumultuous adventure of sleepless nights and symbiotic artistry survival. Nimino transitions the crux of a night into dreamlike dawn with his smooth decrescendos and soulful influences. An emerging artist from Brighton, UK, Milo Evans transfixes crowds with his fluctuating rhythm ensuring a fluid denouement of the night’s antics. Milo’s youth is riddled with the heavy influence of the dubstep scene in Brighton; a mecca where dubstep fans could transcend the barriers of life through a jolt of music and a slap of salt air. He takes a softer approach to the electronic hub that had emerged, creating soft ambient tunes to sooth the soul’s transition before emerging into the salty sunshine.

I am always struck by an artist with a calling. Passion is a devil that strikes inopportunely, yet a calling shines through the face of aversion, failure, and perseverance. Milo has graced the stage since 14, his artistry will remember his innovation in the face of a jarred musical scene, introducing soothing ambients to a future of listeners.

Welcome to Paradise – CS & Miskeyz feat. Emma Carn

Gaby — Sat, 27 Jun 2015 21:11:19 +0000

Surpassing cross-continental barriers, this trio’s collaboration has created an incredible summer tune with articulate residual beats of vintage summer rock ‘n roll, only to be enhanced with ambient electronics. All I want is to be diving into this song and emerging into their unrequited paradise. This collaboration is a key step in the development of each of these artists, refining their style and experimenting with one another’s strengths and varying backgrounds. Miskeyz is based out of Lyon, France, CS in Oslo, Norway, and Emma Carn in Western Australia. Such diverse backgrounds has brought a richness in emotion, experience, and musical engineering. Soothingly fresh vocals integrated into the melody with soaring electronics synchronizes the beats for a delicious outcome. Promoted by an independent record label voicing the unvoiced, Casual Jam Records brings a global influence to their musical promotions specializing in casual and soothing musical ambience. There is no paradise lost, as long as vibrations of this world continue to ignite dreamers.

KarlK – Jeff feat. GuitK

Gaby — Tue, 16 Jun 2015 15:47:16 +0000

Charles Perrono, French DJ and producer in conjunction with musician GuitK have artfully created a hybrid of traditional Spanish guitar and electronic ambient. This song paints a tortured journey of Jeff, an outlawed Spanish gaucho on an escape mission through what I can imagine to be the Pyrénées mountains bordering France. Evidently, I’ve created an entire landscape for this rugged, musky, lawless Jeff-character. Needless to say, KarlK and GuitK push traditional boundaries to produce a unique and soul numbing tale of mystique and intrigue. Let the sultry trills of the tambourine and vibraslap enhance the light and rhythmic beats supporting a not-so-traditional Spanish guitarist and deep soothing vocals.

FKJ – Waiting feat. Madelyn Grant

French Kiwi Juice (FKJ) seeps soulful rhythm with his smooth approach to electronic music. The effervescent sound and smooth classical influences reflect the tradition and sultry heat of Paris’ culture. FKJ is a native Frenchman currently penetrating Europe with his musical prowess. Waiting – featuring Madelyn Grant, an up and coming R&B singer, pairs with FKJ to transcend tradition and fuse articulately mesmerizing vocals with an invigorating electronic approach to traditional blues. The duo create a soulfully intoxicating mix that has its listeners transfixed.

FKJ eagerly anticipates taking the US by storm with his upcoming North America tour starting next week. With an already sold out performance in Brooklyn – this refreshing new artist will have listeners wishing they had a tall glass of French Kiwi Juice every day.

Tycho – Spectre

Scott Hansen, a.k.a. Tycho, came onto the scene in 2011 with the breakthrough release, Dive, which blended elements of ambient and chillwave, and drew comparisons to other blossoming acts of the time like Washed Out, Neon Indian, and Toro Y Moi. Now, Hansen is back with a follow-up LP, Awake, set to be released on March, 18th. Like most of these other acts, there has been a gradual shift towards instrumentation and a keen ear to how these new songs will translate in a live setting by Hansen. Two other tracks off of Awake have surfaced, “Awake” and “Montana,” and today a third, “Spectre,” came out. All 3 signify this shift with heavier drums and layered guitars that give deeper emotion and feeling to the music. Enjoy the latest below.
