She is a dream to work with - dedicated,
hard-working and knows how to

about?
We are currently working on a album

treasure forever.

Never wait or rely on anybody. If you
want something, it will never be handed
on a plate. This is an extremely tough
industry and, if you’re hungry, give it
your all and go get it.

To continue to do what I love to do, and
that’s to bring people together with

A Boy Called Sailboat
The whimsical film will charm you with the quaint story
of a young boy who discovers a love for music.
Sailboat, played by Julian Atocani Sanchez, is an
enigmatic character with a warm and loving heart. His
innocence and kind nature spread optimism to those
around him, and spark a little emotion in the hearts of
each viewer. The heart strings are further tugged
through sadness and difficult moments, yet this little
boy never gives up hope.
In a slanted home beyond the reaches of a droughtridden
town, an isolated Hispanic family accept an
impossible blessing and name their only son "Sailboat".
Sailboat brought fresh love and hope to his family who
have forged a simple but proud life in America, but one
afternoon he brings home something more: a "little
guitar". From this moment, Sailboat and his ukulele are
inseparable, and when his ill grandmother requests he
write a song for her, Sailboat meanders through
adversity to deliver the unimaginable - the greatest song
ever written.
‘A Boy Called Sailboat’, directed by Cameron Nugent
and presented by The Movie Partnership, is available
to watch via DVD and digital download. A few notable
members of the cast include Oscar winner J.K.
Simmons as well as Jake Busey, Noel Gugliemi,
Elizabeth De Razzo. The independent film is being
received well and is a winner of the Boston Film
Festival's Festival Prize, Newport Beach Film Festival's
Audience Award and the Prescott Film Festival's
Director's Choice Award.
Will the mysterious song breathe one last miracle, or
reveal a hapless twist of fate that will return his family
to a house held up by a stick; a car with no doors; an
unchanging wardrobe; and a friend who can't blink..?
'A Boy Called Sailboat' is available to watch on all
major digital download stores.

25 YEARS JOSH LASDEN
7 August 2019 sees artist Josh Lasden celebrate 25 years of his career in
Eeklo, Belgium. The DJ & producer has proudly found success with his
passion for house, electronic and futuristic music. He also founded the El
Futuro Recordings label which holds releases from artists such as Synoptic,
Major K, Sharm Pillay, Mátyás Blanckaert and the founder himself. Josh
Lasden has played at some of the hottest events and clubs including
Tomorrowland, Decadance, 10 Days Off, Fuse and Herbakkersfestival.
The ’25 Years Josh Lasden’ event will be held at his hometown of Eeklo in
the lovely location of Eeklo Beach - Eeklo Centre. The joyous summer
atmosphere brings forth a beach house with themed games for children, a
graffiti workshop as well as the chill out and music lounge. It will feature
live sets from Josh Lasden and Sven Van Hees. It is a free and familyfriendly
event where all are welcome!
This is just the start of the celebrations as Josh Lasden will present a series
of projects and events dedicated to his 25-year career. More events are in
the works together with a special compilation album, this will all span
across the year, commencing from this first event. Josh Lasden reveals
more detail with us...
16 www.AudationMagazine.com
Career highlights…
Too much fine memories and highlights
really, but there are a few I really have
to mention. My gig in The Egg, London
with Nils Hess, the Tomorrowland gig,
Bob Sinclar lifting me up for a packed
Fuse club in Brussels after the warming
up, the closing of Carl Craig and a year
later top of the bill together with
Laurent Garnier at the legendary 10
Days Off festival, my longtime
residency in Club Decadance and my
first events that I organized in Club N9
in my hometown Eeklo City in Belgium.
Playing Folies Pigalle in Paris several
times and the CE Festival in Milan were
all memorable visits. The MuZZic
residency for the Kozzmozz concept in
Ghent are still some fine memories. And
the day I met Synoptic, in Café d’Anvers
in Antwerp, asking me to produce
progressive house as a duo - that is
currently still a great partnership that
started back in 2004.
The future…
Well my personal vision has always
been futuristic, so that means I’m
looking forward to the future. Meaning
more releases on the El Futuro
Recordings label and so much events I
want to play and invite visitors to the
world of futuristic music.
About that, I also launched the term
‘progressive chill out’, as since day one
we are producing chill out music having
that special futuristic feel in it. We also
add progressive (house) elements to
those tracks and therefore we decided
to use the term progressive chill out. Or
just listen to the tracks Coral Dreams
(Chill Out Mix), When The Lights Go Out,
Meeting The Mermaids and Love The
Future.
Event preview…
The 25 Years Josh Lasden concept will
be held for over 1 year with different
events and also a special compilation
release that will be available on portals
such as iTunes, Beatport, Juno
Download, Spotify and many more.
A first event will take place in my
hometown, Eeklo City, during the Eeklo
Beach concept. This night is a cooperation
with Horeca Markt Eeklo and
the City Of Eeklo, bringing you futuristic
music ranging from chill out, lounge,
progressive chill out towards beach
house music. This will be held on the 7th
August and will have a free entrance and
I invited Sven Van Hees - the biggest
international lounge artist of Belgium.
Next to this event, there’s also a special
release planned or the 25 Years Josh
Lasden compilation that will be
released on my El Futuro Recordings
label.
I’m also looking forward to the M.M.A.D.
Festival, this is brand new and organized
at the historical Castle Of Laarne which
is gorgeous. This festival will take place
on the 11th August and I will be playing
a 25 Years Josh Lasden DJ set there.

The ’Throwback Season’ album by Oggie is a great medley of moods and
genres. This is a wonderful compilation whereby he simply takes various
tracks from warm old school memories, and really enjoys exploring his own
versatility and performing these nostalgic gems.
‘Feel’ featuring Miami Rockz holds a huge burst of bright energy with an
upbeat tempo as well as high frequencies in both the dance melody and the
gripping vocals.
‘Anyplace Anytime’ drops down into a dirty Hip Hop vibe boasting of
smooth and seductive vocal ranges.
20 www.AudationMagazine.com
‘Like A Dream’ featuring Draztik is a statement piece consisting of a heady
blend of playful, sexy and imploring voices together with a gnarly bassdriven
track and funky flairs.
‘Dreamin’ is a subdued UKG number where we see an interesting playful
dance between hard and soft vocal tones - it tugs at your curiosity.
'I Swear’ is a ballad of lovely strings and a gentle
tempo, the voice sweeps you off your feet
with sweet and charming
heartfelt emotion.
The inspiration for Throwback Season was a combination of things really, my best
friends, my taste in music growing up over the years, and just the idea of singing
songs that evoked a lot of happiness. I was in a place where I wanted to sing songs
that, for the most part, made people feel good and made me feel good to sing.
I have always had an eclectic taste in music, all the artists that inspired me most
always crossed musical genres, Listen to any Michael or Janet Jackson album and
you hear that, and Prince also. I loved 90's R&B growing up with a passion and
UK Garage, House, even indie music - I could listen to Nirvana in one heartbeat
and then Denzee singing ‘Sorry’ in the next.
This album, for me, really pays homage to that and has a very light laid back feel
to it, it's a summer album for sure. My friends helped me choose the songs that
eventually made the cut, I want people to put it on and just feel good.
- Oggie
The entire 12-track collection is a wonderful
celebration of Oggie and his passion and dedication to music.

Her return to Sydney in 2017 has seen the artist land firmly on her feet,
moving swiftly into the electronic music community and releasing her
debut single ‘Back of You’, to critical acclaim from Triple J Unearthed and
KISS FM. Charting at #2 on the Dance Charts and #7 on the Electronic
Charts, this “knock out first track” and “classic-feeling anthem” is only
just the start for this budding producer.
Karmel released her second single, ‘Trafalgar Square’, in May 2019, along
with her first music video and a synthpop remix by Fynn's Arcade. With a
debut EP set for release later in the year, Karmel will also collaborate
with international and local producers and develop her shows, both as a
DJ and live performer, making for a jam-packed year ahead.
As a DJ Karmel has been booked for club nights including Birdcage
(Slyfox), Sunday Service (Sweethearts Rooftops), This is Living (Blue Fig
Bar) and Gigs in the Garden (The Roundhouse) - DJing everything from
RnB and 90s throw backs to Deep House and Techno.
Karmel’s sonic journey into the electronic scene has seen her flourish
into a versatile artist making her one to watch. As a producer she
continues to explore her artistry across a wide variety of genres, likening
her sound to Roisin Murphy mixed with Robyn.
Karmel sports an impressive classical journey. Wow!

Karmel Jäger
How did it all start for you?
I first remember music grabbing me at
the age of 5 when I cried until my
parents bought me a violin. The original
plan was to be a classical violinist but I
ended up going into classical singing. I
also studied viola and piano along the
way - it was always going to be classical
music of some kind. So it has come as
quite a surprise for me to end up DJing
and producing electronic music!
My journey into electronic music
actually began during a video game
session recording back in London. I was
inspired to get back into composing
after recording the music by a female
composer, realising that women were
highly underrepresented in that space.
I started composing a mass for 8 voices
but ended up writing a song on guitar
later that night! One thing led to another
when it came time to produce the track,
and I ended up learning Ableton and
producing myself. The interest in
electronic music led to an interest in
DJing and once I started I was totally
hooked.
What do you love playing the most?
This keeps changing - I love playing
whatever I’m currently obsessed with,
but I also love making people get up and
dance to music that they like too. For
my own taste at the moment, I’m well
into deep house and deep tech. Very
different vibes but both totally
mesmerising.
Favourite Food?
Too many favourites… Maybe just
anything my mum makes - good old
fashioned British home cooking. I don’t
get to eat her food very often anymore
as she lives in Brisbane, but she’s the
best!
Who’s your muse in the music world?
BRUX. I just love how much amazing
music she’s put out and how she doesn’t
conform to a particular style.
How would you describe the dance
scene in Sydney?
Rebellious. The powers that be have
tried to stifle it, but it’s just resulted in
a growth in the underground scene.
There’s still a bunch of clubs going and
new club nights cropping up. But it really
does feel like a nanny state now. I went
to Curveball the other week and there
were so many security guards it was just
so over the top. It felt like I was at a
protest with police everywhere around!
There were sniffer dogs too, which is
pretty ridiculous in my opinion. Like
being at the airport! And I got locked out
the other week for arriving 15mins after
lock out. I was pretty annoyed.
Favourite Colour?
Sea Green
“ T h i s t o o s h a l l
p a s s . ”
25
'TRAFALGAR SQUARE' IS A SEXY AND
FUN DANCE NUMBER COMPLETE WITH
A GORGEOUS, SILKY VOICE.
What single night out has been the
most memorable for you? As a DJ? As
an attendee?
As an attendee… Printworks in London.
I went right after I’d started learning
how to DJ and suddenly for the first time
I would stand still and analyze what the
DJ was doing instead of dancing! It’s an
amazing venue and the vibe was huge.
Didn’t really notice security guards
around either - haha!
What are your future plans for your
music career?
I am currently working towards
releasing my first EP, which I’m really
excited about. I’ve written loads of
tracks with quite a variety of styles, but
haven’t fully decided which
soundworld I want to go with for the
short term. For the future I want to keep
building up my DJ career and making
that closer to a full time thing.
What is your advice to emerging talent
and how they can set aside any fears
and pursue their dreams with courage?
Emerging talent - go for it. If you love
something and are willing to work hard
and learn the ropes, you can do anything.
I think the best way to gain courage is
to listen to the stories of artists who
went before you, who overcame their
own doubts and struggles. Hearing that
getting to where you want can take time
and that it’s not always a straight path
to get there is really encouraging. We
usually only see people’s success and
their ‘end product’ rather than their
journey, but there are plenty of podcasts
and interviews available that tell of a
bigger story. One of the best pieces of
advice I’ve ever received is to never
compare your beginning with someone
else’s middle. You’re not where they are,
yet, and that’s fine. If someone else can
get to where they want to be, why not
you?

Favourite holiday destination?
Back from my days living in London -
The Cotswolds. Just a wonderfully cold
and beautiful countryside. It feels really
untouched and otherworldly to me. My
life has tended to be a bit crazy, as a
freelancer, going from one thing and
one place to the next, so being still in
nature is really special for me.
What are the things that bugs you about
the DJ scene?
The lack of female representation, and
the lack of respect towards female DJs
and producers. It’s so obvious that that
shouldn’t be the case - it doesn’t need
to be spelled out, but it’s there and it’s
sickening. Some of the things I hear and
read that are said about women in this
space both shocks and scares me. I don’t
know how much I do to change it, but I
do hope to see change, within the DJ
scene and beyond, of course.
Name one track that never gets old for
you no matter how many times you
hear it?
1UL - Danny L Harle
I’m really inspired by all the Aussie
female DJs and producers that continue
to kill it - BRUX, Nina Las Vegas, Anna
Lunoe, Alison Wonderland… the list
goes on and on. I listen to their music a
lot and find it really inspiring. Alison
Wonderland’s ‘Happy Place’, Anna
Lunoe’s ‘Bullzeye’, BRUX’s ‘Belong’, and
Nina Las Vegas’s ‘I Know How it Goes’ in
particular I have played to death!
Any parting thoughts for emerging
artists?
If you work hard anything is possible.

If you could get eternally stuck in one

a time!

Emily Bear - Dancin
NEW
MUSIC
‘Paris!’ by AYLØ is the moment of waking to find yourself in another world,
remembering the night before… the regret sweeping over you. The cool and
contemporary production sets the mood of a leisurely vibe. Transfixing waves
of sound move together with the oozing vocal flows creating a somewhat blasé
muddle of feelings. The slurring emotions drizzle down the sides of a
discontented mind. A haze of foolish mistakes. Careless.
The fast-rising rapper, singer, songwriter and beatsmith is one of the seminal
Nigerian creatives, alongside the likes of Odunsi The Engine and Santi, who are
pioneering the innovative fusion sound coming out of Africa, popularly known
as alté, which is currently making waves, disrupting the sound and culture on
the continent, and quickly gaining traction and attention internationally.
His brand new single 'PARIS' is co-produced with fellow alté frontrunners Le
Mav and Odunsi The Engine, and is the first offering from his forthcoming
mixtape DNT DLT, which is due for release this July. DNT DLT is the long
awaited follow up to his critically acclaimed 2017 album Insert Project Name
and his 2016 Honest Conversations EP before that.
Speaking about the inspiration behind the single, AYLØ says, “Paris is about
finding beauty in everything. Beauty is in our damage and in our stories.
Paradise is what you make it. ‘Paris’ is the subject’s favourite city, so hence the
concept of. Beauty, if in, is out, and as above, so below. Me never having being
to Paris, it wouldn't matter because I’ve found paradise in Lagos... Right now, in
this moment."

The story of a

‘Lost Control’ by Alan Walker featuring Sorana is passionate presentation
of weakness. The sweet and seductive modern vocals are brought with light
piano chords and a pop atmosphere. There is a lovely surprise of the main
tune with gorgeous ethnic influence of Indian strings and rhythmic
percussion. I don’t know who I am. The theme of the lyrics surrounds the
loss of self-love and self-understanding, straying from the path and
needing to find yourself again. What is love without pain?
After arriving in London Town from her native Transylvania 3 years ago,
young, fresh faced, fresh sounding singer-songwriter Sorana, has been
solidly on the grind, recording and learning about the music business with
a drive and a determination to succeed very few have in the modern day.
Transylvania, as some of you will know is a region in Romania, and its main
claim to fame is also being the home to the fictional arch-villain Count
Dracula! Well you’ll be pleased to know the Vampire similarity begins to
end as you listen to Sorana’s latest release called “Lost Control”.
There is a Greek Myth of an Island in the Mediterranean Sea, that was only
inhabited by women called ‘Sirens’. Fearsome creatures who infamously
lured sailors in ships towards land, due to the sound of their angelic voices.
Sirens who eventually caused the hypnotised sailors to a watery grave
after becoming shipwrecked on the rocks directly in front of the island.
Quite a dichotomy wouldn’t you say? but if I could describe the overall
sound of this great modern commercial pop track, I would describe it as
“Siren-Like” – It draws you in…
Technically, it’s an Interesting arrangement. Very pleasing to the ear, where
Piano intervals accompany vocals as the song starts and when the hook
first comes in, the music builds ever so slightly. It’s only when the hook is
finished you have the full dynamic revealing itself with a catchy synth
melody. Very ‘current’ sounding. The synths and the general feel of the
song when it hits is, albeit with a solid kick underneath, like Bollywoodesque
with a gentle reggae twist to it. It’s a very well-rounded track and the
mix is top class too. Whatever the genre, it’s always nice to hear someone
who knows what they’re doing – Well, that’s what happens when you start
singing over Whitney Houston songs from the age of 3…
…You see that’s how it all works. With a bit of luck and a lot of hard work
and practice, one day, you might just make it

‘Dancin’ by Emily Bear is simply gorgeous! The contemporary Jazz production
in delightfully charming with a lovely intricate piano melody and a rhythmic
beat. I know it’s always dark before the dawn. Her voice is so pretty and pure
with soft waves and sweet notes. Took the power into my hands. The lyrics talk
of emerging from the darkness into better days. The smooth tones go straight
to your hips, allowing a gentle swaying motion to ensue as you close your eyes
and absorb the pleasant atmosphere.
17-year-old critically acclaimed singer/songwriter, composer, pianist and all
around super talented Emily Bear, has released her brand new single entitled,
"Dancin".
"'Dancin' is a song about celebration," says Emily. "It's about breaking free
from something toxic, taking back your power and turning a negative into a
positive. It was so great to be able to perform it for the first time on Ellen, I
really feel as if I've grown up on the show and couldn't imagine a more perfect
place for the debut of my new music. Ellen's support has meant the world to
me. I can't believe it's been almost 12 years since I was first on the show."

The ‘Delirium’ EP by QZB is a pristine work on the art of bass. ‘Tech
Priest’ plays with electronic blips and then drops into a dark gritty
underworld. The title track satisfies every need of dysfunctional
imbalance, frayed emotions and a deluded mind with deliciously
syncopated and intricate beat work. ‘Take It All VIP’ featuring Charli Brix
is beautifully eery with her soft voice, then the hard exterior takes
control. Break down my walls. The complete 5-piece collection is a
thrilling journey of darkness.

‘Rock It’ by Ofenbach injects a strong spirit of rebellion through the ears.
The French pop / grunge style production is edgy and sassy to thrill your
senses. You're my ecstasy, I'm your remedy. The combination of a sexy
female and a rough male vocal add to the saucy, scandalous nature.
Everybody, let loose.
Paris duo Ofenbach have become a global proposition after releasing
just a handful of tracks. Now Ofenbach build on that huge attention with
a double-shot of new releases: the new single ‘Rock It’ together with
their self-titled debut EP, both of which are out now.
Always eager to infuse their electro productions with the propulsive
energy of a live band, Ofenbach present a new take on the formula
with ‘Rock It’. Its tight grooves and addictive vocal-focused hook create
an unconventional blend of funk ‘n’ roll. Think Chic filtered through The
Stones for the Spotify age.
‘Rock It’ is one of five brand new tracks that feature on the band’s debut
EP. That melding of electro and rock is further explored with two of the
EP’s other highlights: a collaboration with ‘Feel It Still’ hit-maker
Portugal. The Man on ‘We Can Hide Out’, while ‘I Got Burned’ finds the
duo teaming up with modern funk icons The Bamboos.
The EP is completed by Ofenbach’s three biggest hits to date in the
shape of ‘Katchi’, ‘Be Mine’ and ‘Paradise’ (featuring Benjamin Ingrosso),
which together have amassed hundreds of millions of streams already.
Ofenbach are two 24-year-olds, César du Rummul and Dorian Lo, who
have been friends since school César is a classically trained pianist and a
hobbyist drummer, while Dorian sings and plays guitar. They played in
numerous bands together, but discovered a passion for synths and beats
while studying at film school.
They initially wanted to create a new take on French Touch to reflect
their admiration for the likes of Bakermat, Daft Punk and Justice. But
after remixing Bob Sinclar, Clean Bandit, Portugal. The Man, Bebe Rexha,
Robin Schulz they revaluated their sound. By infusing their love of The
Rolling Stones, Arctic Monkeys and The Strokes into their club-ready
style, they discovered a sound both fresh and immediately accessible.

‘Lose It All’ by Otosan is an interesting meld of styles. The pensive, moody
vocal tone is one of which would fit into a dark Indie/alternative track, yet
instead it is paired with an lively dance beat. The wobbles of emotion spill
over into an intense middle section. Keeping the light once it’s faded. The lyrics
tell a sad story of a failing relationship. There’s nothing to hold to break the
fall.
The track comes with a trio of remixes: The Wildfire edit steps up the beat with
a focus on the dark tones, the Jordan Burns remix is an experiment with hard
electronic grit, and the Dan Aux version increases the intensity and adds a
flavourful beat.
Australia meets NZ duo OTOSAN have a knack for effortlessly crafting finelytuned
dance music with a timeless quality, and that’s exactly what they’ve
done again on the new single ‘Lose It All’. With an impeccable Indie vocal
treatment that meshes seamlessly with on point electro meets future house
production, the duo have once again struck dance floor and airplay gold.
Sitting alongside the original, the lads have enlisted an impressive collection
of remix compadres including Jordan Burns who turns out one of the nastiest
pieces of dark tech/electro you’ll hear this year, Wildfire who brings the main
room tech vibes and NZ’s finest Dan Aux who delivers an epic progressive
workout that’ll turn heads on both sides of the Tasman and beyond.

‘Wanna Know You’ by Axel Jansson is a song which implores
you to open yourself up. Let me in. The raspy folk voice lurches
into a passionate, reaching energy which reinforces the sense
of yearning for a deeper connection. I got faith in you. A lively
indie / pop-rock production adds a kick to this feeling with the
trendy percussion and guitar melody.
Wanna Know You is the new single from Axel Jansson,
described as Bruce Springsteen meets War on Drugs. He
recently revealed the visuals for his new single Wanna Know
You and has a special message to all the LGBT fans: Love Grows
Beyond Traits, it is not normal for a heart to hate. No-one is
banned from our band! – Axel
Wanna Know You is the follow up single to Everything I Crave,
which featured paralympian Cassie Cava (as featured in The
Independent and Guardian). Earlier in 2018, Hopeless Ever
After, another single taken from the forthcoming album
‘Weight Of The World’ (due for release Sept 2019) was
playlisted across 65 radio stations across the UK and secured
Axel a prominent spot on the Foodies Festival 2018 Tour with
performances across the country. Axel’s debut single, Shine
was featured in The Metro, The Mirror, The Sun and the
Huffington Post.
Axel’s first gig with a band was supporting Turin Breaks, to such
positive feedback that they were asked to play the Indie Week
Europe Festival and global music event MIDEM. Axel then took
to the road with The Coffee House Sessions which performed
to 24 university coffee lounges over a two week period. He has
performed at Busk the Box, London Live and I Luv Live has been
invited back on the 2019 Foodie Festival Tour.

The ‘Crazy Dance’ EP by Sampladelic is a lovely little moment of joy and
old school flavours. The title track is a nifty little number with choppy
vocal cuts and a trendy beat. ‘O.K. for the PARTY’ brings smooth jazz
influences with a little spicy attitude of the seductive percussion. ‘Jazz’ the
Kobe JT Remix is a bumpy edit of the second track, playing with the
atmosphere. This trio of tracks flit across the sounds of the underground
garage movement in a pleasing way.
Bass=Win returns with yet another instant UKG classic with the banging
'Crazy Dance' EP from Sampladelic. 2 original floorfillers in the form of the
title track and 'O.K. for the PARTY' along with a remix of 'Jazz' from
Guildford producer/DJ, Kobe JT make this one a must-have summer
slammer!!

‘Anyway Friday’ by Kamandi is a
refreshing piece of calm and
solitude. The dark undertone and
thick sturdy beat gives the mind a
place to rest and reflect. Delicate
fragments and waves of good
energy weave through to create a
comforting warmth. The subtle
vibrancy in the melody lifts you
above the clouds for just a
moment. Close your eyes and
allow the sounds to guide you.

The ‘Atlas’ EP by James Grow is a brilliant Tech House trio for the summer. ‘Faith’
is a timeless piece which will smash any great club set, it simply comprises of a
monotonous yet heady beat which drills steadily into the subconscious as the
track progresses. ‘Dombovar’ has a bold intensity in the atmospheric sounds
which grip you. The title track is last, but not least, it brings the dark desires
forward with a cheeky smile of that warped synth and pumping beat.
This an EP James Grow wrote with Kenja specifically in mind. We welcome him to
the family as he drops three blinding club tracks in a deep tech style: ATLAS is a
banger in true Kenja style. FAITH was a labour of love for James but the love
totally shows in the music. DOMBOVAR shows James’s versatility as a producer
and DJ.

‘Hurricane’ by Morganway delivers a whirlwind of emotions. The fierce guitars
lead us in with a powerful strength. A subtle, charming violin adds a touch of
beauty and innocence. Her voice enters. Fragility through the pain, sweet hints
of vulnerability are given. The chains that you wrapped around me. She gains
strength as the emotions fill her soul, gnarly wrathful notes and big bold power
replace the sweetness. It's our world that's crashing down. The sound and
vocals fill every inch of space, the great energy surging through your mind. A
story of hurt and love’s anguish is told.
East Anglian rock / Americana collective Morganway have released their
second single ‘Hurricane’, taken from their upcoming self-titled debut album
due this summer… ‘Hurricane’ was one of the first tracks written by the band,
and has become the staple show closer, “It’s been with us pretty much since
the beginning. We tend to end every show with it, and each time it’s a little
different” Callum Morgan comments. The version presented on record captures
that raw spontaneity, and has the signature crunchy guitars, roaring vocals and
marriage of melody, harmony and pulse-pounding rhythm that has charmed
live audiences around the UK, “The bulk of it was recorded live, with minimal
overdubs. We also changed its key at the last minute, and suddenly there was a
newfound urgency to the song that I think was always missing when we’d
attempted to record it before. SJ did her lead vocals late at night, with all the
main studio lights dimmed to create an almost eerie atmosphere, and she gave
the most ferocious vocal take we’d heard from her.”, adds Callum.
