LLOREN drops live session from KONK studios
After years of making cinematic music for film & TV, British pop singer and former “The Voice” finalist LLOREN is limbering up to release her dream pop debut album “It’s Always Sunny in LA” very soon.
But first she is dropping a special version of her track ‘Beverly Hills Baby’ recorded in a live session at the legendary KONK Studios. Established in the early 1970s by The Kinks as their private studio and a few years later opened to outside acts like Bay City Rollers, Thin Lizzy, and the Bee Gees, KONK Studios has recently played host to The Arctic Monkeys, Bombay Bicycle Club and Wild Beasts.
The song is from the perspective a woman who seemingly has it all, but she’s lonely, so she seeks the love of a younger man in a desperate bid to cling onto something youthful and romantic, to feel something magical one last time, but she knows it’s not real, that a part time love, is fleeting but that’s what makes it so desperately romantic.
“I hung out at the Beverly Hills hotel once and met a fascinating woman who was staying in town to have her face done. We talked about lots of things, her daughter, her penchant for younger men and I liked her story”, explains LLOREN.
The new release is a break in LLOREN’s string of recent singles which tease her new album and feature huge stadium-pop atmospheres and 80’s style production. Like her previous 2024 releases, “Beverly Hills Baby” continues to reveal LLOREN’s love of nostalgia and the US, but strips things back to leave more space for reflection and intimacy. There’s a slight Americana ballad tinge to the track and the versatility of LLOREN’s voice becomes more of a warming comfort here than the soaring choruses of tracks like ‘The One’ and ‘California Daydream’.
The track follows airplay for LLOREN’s music from BBC Radio 2’s Angela Griffin and Radio X’s John Kennedy and press acclaim from prestigious music tastemakers The Line Of Best Fit. LLOREN’s video for her track “Like This” also won a Telly Award in the US, as well as also being nominated for a prestigious Leo Award in Canada.
Grey’s Anatomy, The L Word, 1923, Wish, The Company You Keep, Made In Chelsea, Love Island UK and Love Island USA are just some of the many sync credits LLOREN has amassed to date, which have steadily proved her rich, multi-faceted vocal and powerful contemporary inspired compositions to be a cut above the rest.
LLOREN was recently invited to join American artist Fleurie on her first European tour. During the tour, she also caught the eyes of promoters who invited her back to open for household names Johannes Oerding and Michael Patrick Kelly and an audience of 10000 people. In the UK, LLOREN is no stranger to the annual PRIDE celebrations having played both Manchester and London where she headlined the women’s stage and has entertained crowds over 10000. She has also toured with Canadian artist Mauvey with whom she collaborated with on the track ‘Pillow’, performing it at BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend as well as the Isle Of Wight Festival 2023.

Fall in Love with Dmillyyy’s New EP “Cupid Pack”


Dmillyyy kicked off the month of love with the lead single, “Balance.” “Balance” was Dmillyyy’s first song of the year. The record served as a teaser for his new EP, Cupid Pack, which was released on Valentine’s Day. Cupid Pack is a five-track EP that dives into the intricacies of love. The EP is an eclectic body of work as it utilizes various genres of music, such as Alternative R&B, Melodic Rap, and Reggaeton.
Cupid Pack starts off with the song, “Thunderstruck.” The track is a record that features a wavy beat and Dmillyyy’s smooth flow. The sound is reminiscent of Jaden. The next track, “Balance,” is a fan favorite and for good reason. “Balance” has a bouncy beat that makes listeners want to groove. The record has a Drake feel to it. The catchy hook reels you in immediately. Dmillyyy cleverly sprinkles in some Spanish lyrics, which are a prelude to the third track on the EP. “Q.M. Interludio” follows “Balance.” The Latin Music interlude showcases the versatility that Dmillyyy possesses. The penultimate track, “WYGD,” is a downtempo, love song that is enchanting. The tune has a sample that blends well with the theme of the song. “WYGD” sets up the EP’s closer as “Madness” is another slow jam. “Madness” is the perfect finale. The sensual track embodies passion and love.
The EP’s introspective/extrospective take on love provides all listeners with songs that resonate with them. Although each song has its own flavor and unique sound, they still connect and carry a cohesive message. “Cupid Pack is an image painted to describe different emotions that may arise for particular love interests.” Dmillyyy continues: “Sometimes it isn’t that serious and just the feeling that you want to cherish. Sometimes the other’s existence makes you want to question everything and reflect back on your own life. Either way, both parties are living in the moment and letting that lead the way.” Cupid Pack is only the beginning as Dmillyyy has much in store for the year. While waiting for his next masterpiece, be sure to show love to the immaculate EP that is Cupid Pack.
