  • Observe Through Your Own Lens With Brennan Jasso's EP, "Life in a Fishbowl"

    Brennan Jasso is an eclectic Singer-Songwriter, Producer, and Mixing Engineer who uses various styles in his music to make something that is uniquely his. Shortly after being born in Cuernavaca, Mexico, he moved to Miami Beach, Florida where he presently resides. With two full-length albums out and a third that’s currently in the works, we get to feast upon the musical collection of songs that are found on Brennan Jasso’s recently released EP, “Life in a Fishbowl.” Commencing the project with the melodically flowing single “Envelop,” Brennan Jasso emits a striking blend of harmonies that showcase his angelic vocal range. Through the soft-spoken timbres that flow elusively through your speakers, we get swept into the saccharine descants that have us basking in opulent guitar riffs, and colossal percussion patterns that submerge you deeper into the artistic virtuoso that Brennan Jasso holds in his jurisdiction of musicality. The effortless blend of components that make themselves known in the soothing framework before us allows us to get a better feel of who Brennan Jasso is as an artist on the eccentric scale of unconventional resonance. Taking us into the transmuted energy that “I Once Knew,” serves up to us, we get an edgier feel in the instrumentation with the blend of sustaining guitar riffs that dip into an established prevalence. The intriguing vocalization of Brennan Jasso’s carefully crafted lyrics has us hanging onto the spacious soundscape of abstract wording. With lyrical motifs such as, ‘I know I fucked up. I know I did bad. I knew what I’d done. Let me right my wrongs,‘ playing into the darker scheme of a characterized foundation, we appreciate the depths that Brennan Jasso will go in order to expose the vulnerable thoughts that linger on his mind. With “Unknown,” being the final record on “Life in a Fishbowl,” we’re presented with a candid display of textured distortion that elevates the multidimensional feel that is found on this EP. You find yourself marinating in psychedelic nods that infiltrate your mind in a major way. Fashioned through the offering of extensive vocal layers that submerge you in the impeccable timing cues mastered by Brennan Jasso, there’s an ominous juxtaposition that is on the rise with “Unknown.” Leaving us to feast on everything that translates into perception, the melodic content of “Life in a Fishbowl,” has us lured into what Brennan Jasso conveys as a creative. Congratulations on the release of your three-track EP, “Life in a Fishbowl.” With such a fascinating approach to the tracklist, we have to know; what inspired the overall concept that’s laced into these songs? Was there a method to the order that we find them in? Thank you so much, this is a very personal release for me. These songs are my honest take on the feelings I was having and represent what felt like a loop I had going on in my head for a large part of the pandemic. I had just gone through a shitty breakup and the lock-in of quarantine kind of just left me festering. I see the three songs as the logical progression: Love, loss, and the unknown. How does a body of work of this caliber compare to other projects that we can find in your music catalog? I really feel like this release is the first one to get to this level sonically that I listen back and think, “Damn, that does sound good!” I have mixed all the music that I’ve released so far and this is the first project I feel I took it all the way home. Was there a particularly creative approach that you took to the construction of these songs? Could you please share a glimpse of what that looked like? I actually had just bought myself a new Apollo X4 from Universal Audio and it gave me access to these incredible emulations of classic preamps like the Neve 1084 and the Avalon VT737. Every guitar you hear is actually emulated from a direct-in signal by the Marshall Plexiglass Amplifier plugin. It was the access to this new tech and sonic texture that led me to start creating these three songs. I worked out of my room in my apartment and produced everything from there and wrote the three songs in their entirety as demos. I actually broke my arm right before I could record the guitar parts, so my good friend Dylan McCue (from The Hails) played most guitar on all three. I eventually got better and was able to lay some overdubs! I really was so lucky to be able to rely on some amazing musicians to keep the music fresh without me in the room. The drums were recorded in a local studio and the other instruments were recorded in the musician's homes. This is a DIY homegrown project to its core. I just made sure everyone delivered parts that fit into the puzzle and then I sang over them, mixed them, and mastered them in my room. Do you find that your growth as an artist is reflected through this EP? Could you please elaborate on that? Totally, this release feels grown-up. I’ve been writing music since I was 15 and releasing it since I was 17 and this EP is the start of a new era for me. I think I’m putting my best foot forward with this release and keeping with my pace, I just want to make music that expresses my deepest feelings but can also make someone wanna jam out. I’m coming to a place where that is feeling more and more like a reality. How does it feel to get this side of your story out to your audience? If listeners could take away the main message from “Life in a Fishbowl,” what would you like that to be? I think if I wanted to impart a message to my listeners it’s that they should love fully, be honest with themselves, and take a moment to take a breath and accept the things that come, whatever they may be. brennanjasso.com

  • Zack Fletcher Paves New Sonic Trails with, "The Traveler"

    Zack Fletcher is a prolific singer-songwriter and guitarist from Ohio. The ghosts of his life experience pervade his uniquely crafted songs through poetic lyricism, riveting guitar patterns, and ethereal melodies. His music has been described as profound, emotional, and haunting; a musical catharsis resulting in a powerful live performance and an intimate listening experience. Signifying a new journey for the intricately sculpted sounds of Zack Fletcher, his most recent single “The Traveler,” has us falling into the profound nature of his craft. There’s a brewing intimacy that enlarges in the strength it offers as we take this record in from start to finish. The overall rush that comes from the sentimental roots flourishing in the captivating sounds conveyed is a team effort between Zack Fletcher and Michael Estok at Court Street Recording. Through a medley of exquisite guitar riffs that accompany the atmospheric launch of resonance in the instrumentation, “The Traveler,” has us feeling the music on a level that can’t be deprived of. Zack Fletcher’s robust croons wrap you in a blanket of security as he navigates us through the meaningful words he reiterates through this soundscape. Pulling us into the compelling origins of this track, Zack Fletcher draws us towards lyrical motifs such as, ‘so, show me, my friend, how the days ahead will change me.’ Delivering us to a sense of clarity basking in reverberated hues of brilliance, what we take away from the emotion felt in “The Traveler,” is truly remarkable. Speaking into the new paths that Zack Fletcher is soon to embark on, this release acts as the perfect trajectory into all that Zack Fletcher is becoming. We admire the depth and grace that you convey through “The Traveler.” With such a staple moment for you in terms of releases, what is the significance that this song holds to you? Thanks so much for the kind words! “The Traveler” has been in my repertoire for quite some time, waiting for the right collection of songs for a proper release. Over the pandemic, Ohio Reveries came together from bits and pieces of every era of my songwriting. Way back in 2013, I submitted a performance video of an early draft of “The Traveler” to a national songwriting competition. It was the first song of mine that garnered lots of community support, which helped me place in the top 20 out of over 7,000 entrants. That support always meant a lot to me. Lyrically, “The Traveler” was inspired by a few people I knew who passed suddenly. Each of them was clearly so loved and full of life, it was difficult to come to terms with. So “The Traveler” is meant to be a reminder of life’s fragility and brevity and hopes to inspire a desire to live to the fullest because there are some who are not afforded that time. All that said, it felt very right to have it as the lead single of Ohio Reveries, and means a lot to have this recorded version out in the world. What was it like working with Michael Estok in order to bring this vision to fruition? In what capacity did you two work together on this beautiful collaboration? The Ohio Reveries sessions helped me rise out of a place of uncertainty. I owe a lot of that to working with Michael at Court Street Recording. His ability and knowledge as a producer/musician are amazing, but it was his encouragement and positivity that made the studio experience revitalizing for me. I had worked with him previously on my instrumental guitar EP, Vignettes, which was recorded in a single day. For Ohio Reveries, we focused on just one song per day. We laid the foundation and atmosphere of each song and specifically made sure the guitar and vocal tracks were as solid as possible. After our sessions, Michael and I stayed in close contact while he fleshed them out more and more to materialize their ideal versions. As a multi-instrumentalist, he played the majority of the accompanying instruments like piano and cello. “The Traveler” also features his wife, Emily Estok, on the vocal harmony, and Rajma McKenzie on the violin. The arrangements are inspired and really help the emotion and beauty of the songs shine through. I remember sending over the demos and having some introductory discussions. There was excitement over the possibilities of the material, and I couldn’t be more proud of what our work together became. How does “The Traveler,” compare to other songs that can be heard on your music catalog? “The Traveler” is much greater in scope than the other material released under my own name so far. Vignettes and Dead Ends are essentially single-track, live run-throughs recorded in the studio. In contrast, the Ohio Reveries collection is a full production with rich arrangements and many layers. In that way, it’s more akin to my Moths in the Attic material, but trends on the folkier side as opposed to the alternative. “The Traveler” probably has the most mainstream appeal out of anything I’ve recorded up to now and has a lightness that contrasts with some of the weighty thematic elements on the Moths in the Attic album. I’m really proud of my growing solo and MITA catalog. I think listeners will find the development and variety interesting. While each project has its unique place in the catalog, I think my songwriting voice is still recognizable throughout. I recently created a Spotify playlist with all of my recorded works (including “The Traveler”) for anyone interested: https://spoti.fi/2Vsr3KA What message do you aim to send out to your audience through the music that you craft? I suppose the overarching message of my music is to not be afraid to grapple with things in life that are emotionally difficult. In my experience, bottling or neglecting to deal with those things can be damaging to yourself or others. I’d encourage everyone to find a way to explore and express those feelings through dialogue, art, or through their passions. That’s exactly what songwriting has been for me: a therapeutic endeavor. It’s a medium to explore themes and ideas like love, pain, or other life experiences that can be hard for me to express otherwise, focusing that energy into something positive, productive, or beautiful. linktr.ee/zfletchermusic

We truly appreciate such a meaningful and relatable single like "Too Much." What inspired you to address such personal issues through song? I went through a particularly difficult time during the pandemic, like a lot of us did. During that time of intense isolation, I found a lot of time to reflect on my life and my past. I was inspired by a period in my life in 2019 when I was partying a lot to escape my anxiety and finding solace in overindulgence in drugs and alcohol. Why did you choose to go the electro-pop route for your single, "Too Much?" How do the sonics and production enhance your lyrical theme? The production style has a lot of synth passes that have a dizzying sound to them and although the track is upbeat, there is melancholia in its overall sound that matches the darker lyrics. Did you work with any producers when crafting the sonics for "Too Much?" What was the sonic creative process like behind the scenes? Yes, I worked with my long-time collaborator and producer, Jason Strong on this track. We had a great time making this record, as he handled the bulk of the production on my upcoming album. I wrote the song, along with my laptop and my midi, and brought the song to him the next day. Then we started building the product. It didn’t take long at all. He is so talented and can really make a song come to life very quickly. What have you been up to since the release of your album, 'Scorpio Season?' Were you able to broaden your fanbase since the project's release? The album is coming out in October of this year. We are currently in the editing process for the music video for Too Much. We filmed it all around New York City in places that had significance to me during my heavy partying days. After that, we have two or three more singles to push from the album with corresponding music videos and visuals. I’ve been lucky to have been steadily building a strong and loyal fan base. I have incredible fans for sure. None of this would be possible without them. What's next for you? We are releasing a fun, 80s-era, synth-pop single at the end of summer with a big Hollywood-esque music video out in Los Angeles. I can’t wait. I believe it is my favorite song I’ve ever written.

  • Heidi Anne Releases New Single, "Butterfly"

    British Singer/Songwriter Heidi Anne is back with a strong, independent sound. After her release of "When The Sun Comes Up," featuring T-Pain, Lil Wayne and Rick Ross in 2012, and her following release of "Cryin' It Out" with Wiz Khalifa, Heidi Anne's career flourished. She's now captured a more electronic, R&B vibe than anything else, and her lyricism is more affecting than ever. Heidi Anne has released a new single, titled "Butterfly." The song contains luscious, soft vocalism on Heidi Anne's end, and she truly embraces the full extent of her vocal range. Midway through the song, a robust vocal surprise is gifted, and the talents of Heidi Anne get authentically illuminated. Heidi Anne's voice is full of character and affection. These characteristics fit perfectly into the narrative of "Butterfly." The song takes listeners through Heidi Anne's journey of growth and transformation, eluding to the same kind of journey a butterfly goes through. One of the most affecting lines, "They say transformation is a beautiful thing, and I feel my wings emerging, you've got to embrace it, no matter how far, It's about revealing who you are," is sung with deep passion. Heidi Anne shares confident, charismatic and wise advice that stimulates self-reflection. All in all, "Butterfly" displayed that Heidi Anne is all about embracing her personal revolution, which most definitely has the power to inspire many listeners in the process. What a personal transformation you've had since the release of your infamous 2012 singles. How would you describe how your music has transformed and morphed within recent years? After working with several different producers, labels, managers, I eventually realized that actually I needed to listen to my heart and what I wanted to do/be. I broke out of all my agreements and spent some time figuring out just what path to go down, after travelling the world, performing on cruises, in the Middle East and Asia, i decided to settle down back home, put pen to paper, and focus ALL my attention on doing what I KNEW I was put here to do. Write and record my own songs. This meant I had full control over the genre, lyrics, production, vocal style and everything else that goes with it, and I have never been happier. Your release of "Butterfly" shared a touching narrative. What were you hoping your listeners would ultimately take away from your song and apply to themselves? So metaphorically speaking, we all need to find ourselves, and everybody evolves in life as they experience more and more. There is no need to be afraid of being who you are - just fly and then you will be free. Don't let anyone else's opinion define you. You do that yourself, and be yourself regardless. Were there any creative challenges surrounding the creation of "Butterfly?" There were a few, for instance, which do I go for; the original version or the acoustic version? People seemed to be feeling the acoustic version more as it really moved them and almost gives you shivers as you connect with the song. However, in the end, I released both. I also had to tell a story lyrically, melodically and vocally. Where do you see your sound heading next? Being the R&B soul & pop lover I am, this is the current direction for my new album, which is looking to be released within the next 6 months. heidianneofficial.com facebook.com/heidianneofficial youtube.com/heidiannemusic

  • McKayla Prew Will Give You Goosebumps With Her Single, "Gone"

    McKayla Prew is a Los Angeles, CA, Singer/Songwriter that recently released her third single, "Gone." Produced by McMusic, "Gone" encapsulates a heartbreaking experience of McKayla Prew and sheds light on her growing perspective surrounding her personal loss. "Gone" leads in anticipation of McKayla's debut album, which is set to be released within the coming months. "Gone," which was inspired by a tragic accident involving two of McKayla Prew's close friends, involves many touching thoughts from McKayla Prew. The song begins with a sweet-sounding melody that matches the mellow and delicate vocals of McKayla Prew. Her voice is able to provide a warm embrace, and the storyline of the song is delivered with utmost care. With affecting lyricism, "Gone" is able to shed light on McKayla Prew's hardships. She drives raw and authentic emotion into each and every line, which allows "Gone" to become a heartfelt single that is most definitely goosebump-worthy. Beautiful and luscious violin melodies take over midway through "Gone", and the harmonious rhythm McKayla Prew picked to be the centre of her song worked to enhance the emotionality contained in "Gone". One element to "Gone" that didn't go unnoticed was the range that McKayla Prew can take on vocally. She shows listeners the true extent of her talents, and thus how that genuine goosebump effect takes over. All in all, "Gone" was full of real heart, and McKayla Prew has won us over with her honest, soulful recollections. You have recently released "Gone," a single that was inspired by a horrible tragedy. Was it difficult for you to write and record this particular song, knowing the emotional hold it had on you? It was a heart-wrenching process while creating "Gone." I actually wrote "Gone" two years before I was able to record it. It took me that long to be able to perform it without bursting into tears. Honestly, I really had to emotionally detach myself from the song in order to sing and perform it, or else I would just be a wreck the entire time. What were you hoping your listeners would take away from your experience in "Gone?" I think over the past two years, everyone in our world has had so much loss due to the pandemic. That's why I thought now would be the best time to release it since during this time people may need it the most. I hope that listeners take away after listening to "Gone" that our loved ones are still alive within us through memories. Even though they may not physically be here on this earth. Would you say that the creation of "Gone" was able to help you with your healing process? "Gone" was definitely cathartic and helped me on my healing journey. The writing of the song brought me closer to God and taught me how to rely on faith in times of tribulation. But I didn't write "Gone" for myself, I mainly wrote it to help the healing process of my friends' mother and family. The words in the song were inspired by their mother's posts on her Instagram page dedicated to them. I wanted to make a song for her that could help her get through times of sadness and grief. What would you like new listeners to know about your music? I want new listeners to know that they will be able to always find a song that resonates with them through my music. My goal with the songs I write is to help others feel as if they aren't alone in this great big world. That they are never alone with their emotions and experiences. instagram.com/mckaylaprew

  • LUIS CAMPOS Has Us "Falling in Love," With His Elusive Resonance

    The multifaceted LUIS CAMPOS is a Mexican/American punk-rock jazz drummer, singer, producer, and member of the band Delux. Born in Culiacán Sinaloa, Mexico he began playing drums at the age of sixteen. After moving to Los Angeles, LUIS CAMPOS continued to pursue a career as a rock and jazz drummer and hold accolades such as being hired as the musical director for Puerto Rican pop singer Noelia in 2006. Taking a deep dive into his latest 10 track album, ‘Now or Never,’ we come across the soothing sounds of the notable single, “Falling in Love.” Through buoyant instrumentation that hones in on tantalizing hues in the beat, what is offered up unravels itself in an alluring manner. We have the pleasure of simmering in the infectious grooves that the heavy percussion patterns emit, all while focusing on the elusive feel that is brought to the table. LUIS CAMPOS has a melismatic tone that he approaches all of his intricately crafted wording with. Dousing us in the vibrancy that pours from the passion he embodies, there’s a mesmerizing flow that comforts listeners as they take in his saturated timbres. Allowing us to get lost in the music with a track that perfectly sculpts our minds with what’s before us, the way the musical progressions have us grasping onto the complex production flow transports us into a cordial embrace of dynamism. Through an almost ethereal universe that we immerse ourselves in, it’s hard not to have lyrical motifs such as, ‘I think I’m falling in love again,’ lingering in our mind long after the song is over. With the picturesque resonance of LUIS CAMPOS pleasantly gracing our ears, there’s no denying the power that he holds within his artistry. We love how the musical background that you have taken a new approach in the sounds of “Falling in Love.” Could you please share the inspiration that led you to this striking creation? I was inspired by wanting to create something different from what I call punk-pop rock alternative music which is what I’ve been playing most of my career. I wanted to challenge myself and to present a fresh album especially if I was going to sing in it for the first time in my career. Most people only know me as a drummer but I wanted to change that and share with the world a side of me that not that many people knew about me as an artist cause of constantly being focused on bands and drumming full time, that focus wasn’t allowing me to express my self in full potential. Not to mention the work I’m doing as a music producer. This full album was produced, performed, mix and mastered by my self and I’m extremely proud of it, it took a lot of work, time, dedication, and passion. At the end of the day, work ain’t work when you love it. I go by that every day and it’s what has kept me going for 20 yrs in my music journey! What encouraged you to make this song the lead single from your album ‘Now or Never?' How do the sounds of this particular record speak into the overall concept laced into the full project? That’s a good question, the reason I chose “Falling in Love” as my first single is cause I believe it reflects a more modern sound, not to mention it was the first song I wrote for the album so I put a lot of thought into this one at first and I really think it shows what I’m capable of doing as producer, musician, and composer. It’s simple, short, catchy, and easy to understand when it comes to the lyrics and what it’s about! What do you hope that your audience can reflect on during or after listening to “Falling in Love?” Does it align with what you take away from the song as the creator? I obviously hope anyone who listens to it enjoys it and wants to make it part of their life routine either working out, driving or maybe just playing it at a gathering or so. If I make one person feel like it helped them going through their day or something then I will feel fulfilled as a creator/artist. Songs can mean anything so any way someone may feel identified with the song would be something I would cherish for life maybe the song might make them feel something in a positive way going through something deep in their life’s or simply make them kill time while bored sitting at a parking lot who knows. Apparently, I already accomplished it from msgs and comments I already received from people :) From the release of your first song to this present moment, how have you found yourself evolving in your craft, and as an individual? A lot actually, it's such a new chapter for me though I’m still a drummer in fact more than ever. However I’m experiencing new things with the release of my album as a singer, first I’m starting to understand how some artists I admire and listen since a kid feel about certain things. For instance, I’m not used to having people listen and read my lyrics (cause I always record drums in my band’s albums and let the singer do what he does best) with that being said I had someone the other day come to me and said “look at how you write” referring to me like I’m in love or hanging on a girl’s story situation and I thought to my self so this dude is picturing me that I’m in every situation of what I write in my songs? I was like this is not cool cause we often create fictional stories or write about absolutely anything if I say “let you go” “waiting for you” etc like on my album it doesn’t necessarily mean I’m waiting for a girl or sad, it could mean anything, it could be referring to a turtle I had in the past (which I had to let go lol) it could be I’m waiting for some potatoes at Johnny Rockets (so good btw) and of course, there’s a song here and there I meant everything I went through in my life!! But anyway now I understand why Kurt Cobain would get mad at everyone trying to put a sticker on him about his lyrics or trying to force a meaning on everything he would say or sing about, same deal with Eddie Vedder (I’m a grunge guy gone punk and pop). We’re artists we write about everything not just us, on my next album people are going to get surprised that is a fact! What's next for you? I’m really excited about what’s next, first I’m finally playing shows with my main band Delux in November (I’ve been waiting for this for a year and a half), I’m also playing some shows with a band I’m helping out here in Los Ángeles “Ruthcrest” we’re doing Texas, San Diego, and Los Ángeles to start with checking my sites for dates. I just came back from recording the new album with one of my projects “Suprema Corte Del Norte” it will be out next month along with 2 official music videos and a surprise show. Also “Falling In Love” from my album will be playing in some radio stations within the US and Mexico by middle November I’m super excited about that and I’ll be releasing a 3rd official music video for my song “Let’s Go”. Along with 1 official lyric video for each song of my album every week starting September. Also, I got a few tv placements that will play my official music video “Falling In Love” and there’s specifically one big one I don’t want to mention here cause it’s the biggest thing I’m doing right now and I don’t want to jinx it. luis-campos.com instagram.com/chocsdlx facebook.com/lcamposmusic twitter.com/luiscamposmusic youtube.com/luiscamposdrums nstagram.com/deluxrock facebook.com/deluxrock

  • Hevve Indulges Listeners in Introspection With, "Balcony Tours and Marble Floors"

    Versatile with what he brings to the table, Ottawa native Hevve has been leaving an imprint on the music industry since 2017. Known for his lyrical finesse, and his ability to transform a beat into a canvas of musical genius, the perseverance that flows through his work ethic is what sets him apart from the rest. Returning with his second single release of 2021, we get to embrace the lyrical dexterity of Hevve on his latest single, “Balcony Tours and Marble Floors.” A collaborative effort between himself and producer extraordinaire Quest from Dreamland Studios, the cognizant embrace of the instrumentation lets this creative duo thrive in a realm that showcases their abilities at eminent heights. Hevve presents his artistry in a way that allows him to personally connect with his audience through slick cadences and intricate rhyme schemes. Upon first listen, your ears are immediately open to the hunger that blatantly announces itself in Hevve’s vocal tone as he casts out vivid imagery that speaks into the energy he conveys. We get to appreciate this track in various forms as the beat drops just before the halfway mark, and Hevve exudes a more melodic approach to the way listeners can resonate with lyrical motifs such as, ‘things from the past try to call up cause they lonely.’ Getting back to the songs' cemented flow and conscious reiteration of words that hold a great significance to the artist, what we take away from “Balcony Tours and Marble Floors” is that Hevve is always one to bring life to the verses that he lays down. With his lyrics leaping from the speakers as we envision the candid narrative that is disbursed through this record, Hevve has us mesmerized by his artistic capabilities as an artist in the new wave of Hip-hop where he reminds listeners that lyrics still matter. Welcome to BuzzMusic, Hevve! Congratulations on the release of the lyrically charged single “Balcony Tours and Marble Floors.” With this song being your second single release of 2021, where did the inspiration for your carefully crafted verses stem from? First off, I just want to say bless to your team. I appreciate and love what you guys are doing for independent artists. A whole lot of respect from my ends. That being said, “Balcony Tours and Marble Floors” was crafted during my venture to Toronto. I lived in a sky rise and one night I looked out over my balcony and took in the energy of the big city atmosphere. It was a moment that kind of woke me up from a slumber where my hunger and my craving had vanished. I watched closely how people can turn from kings to canceled in seconds. I learned from those who made success a lifestyle and saw how they thrive in this social chaos. It was basically an awakening of my inner self saying that if I want to cross over to that lifestyle then I need to want it and walk like I deserve it. Throughout the song I talk about how I've had these tools all along but my soul wouldn't allow me to use them because I would have done it for the wrong reason. Finding myself made the hunger and the craving return stronger than ever. In terms of your creative process, did you happen to have the lyrics written down before hearing the instrumentation, or did they naturally flow once you had finally heard the beat? I always write on a beat. I used to just write bars and memorize them but felt that my vibe and my energy matched better when I was able to craft bars and place them at the right spots, to keep an atmosphere throughout. I want to take you on a journey whenever one of my songs comes on. Picking the right beat, for the right subject, and current mood of the moment is key to captivating the audience with the atmosphere I want to bring to them. Comparing “Balcony Tours and Marble Floors” to the previously released ‘Judas,’ what would you say was the biggest difference in the way you approached the themes addressed? What does the narrative behind this newly released track say about you as an artist and individual? The way I approached them was that one was about what I've been witnessing and living on a personal, basically talking man to man, level. While on the other it was more me addressing how I've been evolving on the creative and entrepreneurial level. On 'JUDAS,' I touched on injustices, real life hurdles and emotional things. On "BTAMF," this Spoken were much more on the side of "Yo, Hevve's back and he just discovered how to turn Super Saiyan." I spent the last few years trying to find myself and my place in the industry. This song is about me coming to that realization and embracing it. This song is the official transition point of the New Hevve. What’s your mission statement as an artist? How do you ensure that everything you do within your brand allows this statement to remain true? I'm a voice for the silent. A voice for the muted. A voice for the introverts. If you overthink and overthink, I'm a voice for you. Spent too much of my life pondering what I should do instead of doing it. My favorite saying is "Life is chaos, but it's in that chaos that you find beauty." I'm just here as a voice of reason, understanding and soul for those who need it, in a time where chaos screams the loudest. My goal is to always stay true to myself and maintain my energy. No matter what song I get on, you can bet you'll get that same Hevve feel every damn time. What’s next for you? As far as what's coming next for Hevve, I have to say, my entrepreneurial mind has big plans and projects lined up for the next few years. Ottawa has the potential to be a beacon for artists of all genres and I aim to leave my mark and devoting my time to make sure that happens. As far as the music goes, I've got tracks on hot plates, in the kitchen, ready to be served. Stay tuned for more singles, videos and performances, as I construct the next album. instagram.com/hevve

  • Thalia Sophia Introduces Us to the World of Love's Hardships with Her Debut Single "In Me"

    Performing from the tender age of six years old, Thalia Sophia is a singer-songwriter and recording artist with a unique culturally mixed background. Growing up, she was influenced by a variety of musical styles from old school reggaeton and cumbia, to European pop, all the way to relaxed blues and reggae. With an immigrant mother from Germany and a Chicano dad, she draws musical influences that are as diverse as she is. Having been born in the magical city of Miami, she aims to create unique fusions of sounds that are equally culturally mixed. The soothing captivation that is introduced to us on her latest single, “In Me,” has listeners far and wide feeling the sensual allure that Thalia Sophia brings to the foreground. There’s a sultry magnetism that flutters in her vocal delivery as the powerful melodies put you in a trance. Encapsulating sounds of her heritage all while conveying the simmering vibrations of this summertime anthem, there’s nothing that says sun-kissed skin, and warm evening breezes quite like the tantalizing quintessence that is offered upon “In Me.” Lusciously pouring out sounds of sweet blended Spanish and English lyrical motifs, the profound wording performed graces our ears and speakers in an immersive expression of the risks of love. There’s a method to the way that she approaches the verses effortlessly while tracing through the cascading foundation of musical elements in an almost therapeutic manner. Once the chorus is locked in, and you hear the dynamism that radiates through her wide vocal range, you come to appreciate Thalia Sophia in a way that speaks directly into your soul. If this is what we can expect from her music catalog for the time to come, then you can bet that “In Me,” will serve us right until it’s time to hear what she has brewing next. We love the blend of genres that you have us experiencing in “In Me.” Could you please share a glimpse into what the vision you have laced into this song is about? Thank you! While writing, I was very much envisioning our beautiful tropical summers, with palm trees swaying in the breeze, and I wanted to share that vibe with listeners. I was definitely harnessing my badass summer energy and the lyrics about not accepting any kind of mistreatment just kinda poured out of me. I chose to have my lyrics switch between Spanish and English because although I absolutely love singing in Spanish, I naturally speak in a sort of Spanglish, so I felt including both languages would be more authentic to me and my blended cultural background. With your own personal takeaway from this song being different from what you’d like the audience to experience, could you please take us into things you want your fan base to reflect on when listening to “In Me”? I want listeners to feel empowered to not accept any disrespect and to know that they are amazing beautiful people. We don’t need to deal with any bad energy in our lives, because at the end of the day everything we need is already within ourselves. I also hope listeners can escape into a tropical dream world while listening to it too! How does it feel to have your debut single out? What inspired you to make this statement piece that introduced your musical talents to the world? It’s so exciting! Music has always been a big part of my life, but I had never shared my own original lyrics and melodies before, and I had never made my own decisions in a studio before about how I wanted things to sound, where harmonies should be placed, and such. I know I have a lot of growing and learning to do, but I am so happy that I was able to share so many different parts of myself in my first single! What are you hoping that your music says to the people who take it in? I’m hoping my music transcends genres and shows people we don’t have to be defined by anyone box. There is a place for those of us who speak more than one language, belong to more than one culture, or have more than one passion. I hope my lyrics in this song make people feel empowered to never accept anything less than they deserve and to know that they already have everything they could ever need in themselves. We’re all perfect just the way we are! instagram.com/thaliasophia_

  • Accept the Evolution of Life With Alex Adea's, "Blooming Season"

    Indie-pop singer and songwriter, Alex Adea hails from Brussels, Belgium, currently studying music in Liverpool, UK. When her audience tunes into her music, they’ll find that her songs have a sweet, soft, and dreamy sound with a touch of nostalgia and sentimentality. Influenced by artists such as Taylor Swift, Lorde, and MUNA, she is inspired by honest, personal, and internal emotions, dreams, and feelings. Known to illustrate vivacious atmospheres that run rampant in your mind, “Blooming Season,” is the latest release to come from the emerging artist herself. Her angelic vocals chime into the soundscape with dazzling harmonies that are rich in texture as the ambient croons grasp your attention. The manner in which she performs from such an intimate place of heartfelt tendencies can’t be denied. You’re immediately pulled into Alex Adea’s flourishing web of delicate hues that are cemented in the bolstered confidence she stirs up within the mesmerizing dreamscape of instrumentation that trickles into the speakers. Much like the song title suggests, the narrative of personal growth and evolution takes the foreground as she intricately crafts lyrical motifs that shape themes of moving on from the past and adapting to the now that young adults embrace. We’re awestruck by the emotion that she authentically displays while speaking from a place of personal experience. With subject matter that many can relate to, Alex Adea has a knack for making it seem like her Pop ballads are personally addressed to yourself, as you remain fully absorbed in the sound waves that connect you both. Giving us the soothing rush of realness that we need, Alex Adea has us wanting more with “Blooming Season.” Congratulations on the release of your latest single “Blooming Season.” With such a familiar soundscape that you offer up to listeners, what inspired you to take this route when addressing the themes that we hear? Thank you! I generally draw a lot of inspiration from dreams and daydreams, and I think that that is reflected in the sounds I choose for my songs. The soft-synth sound and vibe are definitely a favorite of mine, and I think it’s also about finding sounds that work with one’s voice and lyrics. Generally, though, I would say the most important thing is to go with your gut feeling and choose what feels right, whether it’s something you’ve done before or you’re experimenting. Could you please share a glimpse into what the creative process looked like when bringing your vision of “Blooming Season” to life? Similar to my other songs, I collect and write down all the images, scenes, and emotions that come to my mind when thinking about this feeling I’m writing about. What do I hear, see, feel. I believe that thinking this way helps me come up with interesting visuals that the listener can picture. These images then influence the instruments I choose. Especially when I’m in the early creative process I try not to edit or delete too many ideas I come up with, even if I never end up using them or am not immediately convinced. Honesty is also important. When your audience reflects on the profound lyrics that accompany the instrumentation, what are you hoping that they take away from the message you put forth? The general message in ‚Blooming Season‘ is that a negative experience can be the reason and foundation for growth, insight, and evolution. It’s also about coming out of your shell, and confirmation and affirmation to yourself that you’ve outgrown an experience and can let go and move on. I think the line „Cloudy skies and April showers, the blooming season for shy wallflowers“ expresses this perfectly. I hope that that will give some people comfort and inspire them to reflect on themselves and past experiences. From your first release to this very moment, how have you found yourself evolving as an artist? Since my first release, I think that I’ve evolved so much as a human and as an artist that I honestly don’t know if I can clearly separate those two processes. I’m much more self-aware of my lyrics, the way I present myself, the role of a song in my discography, etc. I like to think that I’m also more experimental and open to branch out a little bit, but at the same time I’m narrowing down on the sound I want to embody. I’m really enjoying this period of growth and even though these last couple of months have been tough I think every new experience helps you evolve. What's next for you? I’m working on a ton of new music, and I’m really excited about releasing more music in the future. I would love to release a full EP, and I’m also working on some acoustic versions of some of my older songs. I’ll also be posting lots of covers and content on my social media and any updates will be announced there. instagram.com/_alexadea_
