Dom Malin Drops New Single ‘bloodmoon’
With bloodmoon, Dom Malin delivers a hauntingly beautiful meditation on connection, memory, and the quiet gravity of human emotion. Rooted in his signature indie-folk warmth and tinged with subtle Americana, the British singer-songwriter’s latest release is a compelling addition to his growing catalog of introspective gems. It’s the kind of song that doesn’t just settle in your ears — it lingers in your chest, resonating with that unspoken ache we all carry for people and places that still live in our hearts.
Malin’s songwriting here is deceptively simple yet deeply poetic. The metaphor of the blood moon — rare, magnetic, quietly powerful — becomes a vessel for exploring the enduring bonds we share with those who may no longer be in our lives but remain a part of us. He paints with light: the glow of memory, the pull of distant affection, the delicate comfort of knowing someone out there still holds a piece of your soul. There’s a timeless quality to the way he captures this feeling — it’s nostalgic, yes, but also grounded and true.
The production on bloodmoon is rich and immersive, with amber-toned instrumentation that builds organically around Malin’s vulnerable vocals. Gentle acoustic strums, ambient textures, and restrained percussion form a soundscape that feels both intimate and cinematic. Influences from his time in the States — touches of Americana and roots rock — blend effortlessly with his UK folk sensibilities, creating a track that feels familiar yet fresh, grounded yet expansive.
At the heart of bloodmoon is Malin’s voice — earnest, weathered in just the right way, and full of quiet conviction. He doesn’t overreach emotionally; instead, he lets the song breathe, giving space for the listener to feel alongside him. There’s a rawness in his delivery that makes every line land a little deeper, especially when he sings about the comfort of a distant presence still bringing warmth to one’s life.
Bloodmoon is not just another single — it’s a statement. It marks a confident step forward for Dom Malin as he prepares to release his collaborative EP with Luna Keller later this year. Thoughtful, cinematic, and emotionally resonant, this track reaffirms Malin’s place as one of the UK’s most promising indie-folk voices. Bloodmoon is a gentle reminder that some connections — like lunar events — are rare, radiant, and unforgettable.
The Devil’s Violinist returns!West Coast beat-boss / rhyme capo Dios Negasi finally drops the long-awaited LP, Black Violin 2. Out now via streaming courtesy of Chamber Music Ent / Reagan Era Records this edition tops the grit factor and guest roster of the 2023 first edition.
The project is named after legendary composer Niccolo Paginini (1782-1840) who was nicknamed “The Devil’s Violinist” for his supernatural ability on the instrument and adherence to wearing all black. Negasi also has a similar mastery of dark boom-bap sounds, creating some of the roughest tracks of this century.
Reagan Era Records cohort Skrillz Dior makes multiple appearances on the project and Los Angeles homies also appear including Dyverse, Killa Kali, K-Borne and Chamber Music’s Ominous also guest. However, the guest list on this project also taps a litany of mic legends including Ghostface Killah, Young Zee (Da Outsidaz), Conway The Machine, RJ Payne, Blu and Fredro Starr (Onyx).

Speaking on working with legends Negasi said “Ominous was dead set on topping Black Violins 1 plus I think he just likes seeing me under pressure. Of course when you are dealing with artists of this caliber, the end product takes longer to complete but I love this album!”
Additional props must be given to M-s BEATZ THE MAD KID from Colombia who produced “Black Scrolls” ft RJ Payne, Chris Scott who sprinkled keys on “Gods Wallabee Clarks” ft Ghostface Killah and “Only God Can Save You” ft Conway The Machine and finally the UK’s Too Nasty who engineered the album.
(rings in the holidays with a blast! Enlisting Onyx’s Fredro Starr for new single “Bust Back” the Dios produced banger combines two of the grittiest lyricists of the West and East coasts.
