LA Musician Your Ex Shares Smooth New EP Interludes & Daydreams p.2

Music4U — Tue, 04 Apr 2023 15:57:39 +0000

Singer/songwriter/producer Your Ex is an LA native who found a passion for music at a young age that later flourished into a deep exploration of the arts. As an independent artist, Your Ex took a spot on Spotify’s Fresh Finds and Best Of Alternative R&B playlists with his single “BUT HER LOVE” in 2021, and he is now back for the first time in two years with brand-new music in the form of EP Interludes & Daydreams p.2.

Featuring lo-fi beats and Your Ex’s smooth, warm vocals, the five-track project is another impressive offering and the perfect follow-up to 2021’s Interludes & Daydreams p.1. Among the five tracks is new single “Everything You Need”, which is one of Your Ex’s favourite tracks he’s released to date. The project looks set to see him continue where he left off two years ago and reach new heights, and with a third part in the EP series already in the works, he doesn’t plan on slowing down anytime soon.

Speaking further on the new EP, Your Ex says, “I wanted to create something authentic to me, neither explicitly modern nor overtly commercial. There’s a thread within my music that fans will soon find. When writing these songs, I tend to dive in and out of past and present situations, dissecting lessons and exposing personal faults that in the past have been difficult to come face to face with. The series of Interludes & Daydreams is about specific moments in a shared timeline that kinda defined who I am now.

“This is for those that are looking for an explanation or some validation for their blurred emotions. Love can be a crushingly confusing place, even when it’s real.” Interludes & Daydreams p.2 is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://yourex.lnk.to/idp2.

Ty Rise Shares “Stop Me”

Music4U — Fri, 30 Dec 2022 13:39:58 +0000

Rising singer, songwriter, producer and visual creative Ty Rise has returned with “Stop Me”. The LA-based newcomer got off to an impressive start last year upon releasing his debut EP, My Own, with the independent release already accumulating in excess of 100,000 streams on Spotify alone, and he looks set to continue his momentum and reach even greater heights with “Stop Me”.

With catchy melodies and a hard-hitting trap beat, “Stop Me” fuses elements of hip-hop and R&B and showcases just why Ty Rise has been such a hit so far, so early on in his career. The track also arrives with an accompanying self-directed music video. The vibrant and fast-paced visuals, which show Ty driving through the Mojave Desert, California, complement the track’s high-octane production and are sure to impress.

Speaking further on the new release, Ty says, “At its essence, ‘Stop Me’ is about wanting to take a chance on love, while at the same time realising what a leap of faith and crazy journey love really is. It’s about asking someone to come along and risk it all for the kind of love that goes into the unknown, shoots for the stars and is sometimes willing to get lost.”

Clearly armed with heaps of talent to support his individual sound and style, Ty Rise is only just getting started, making him one to watch out for as more music is unveiled. “Stop Me” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://tyrise.lnk.to/stopme.

Jack Xander Uncovers Stunning New Single “Sun Up My Sleeve”

Music4U — Fri, 23 Dec 2022 11:32:20 +0000

Jack Xander’s music is undoubtedly addictive. Although the LA-based artist only made his music debut earlier this year, it’s already clear what a huge talent he is. His knack for unique melodies makes his songs incredibly intriguing and engaging with high replay value as can be heard on his new single, “Sun Up My Sleeve”.

“Sun Up My Sleeve” is Jack’s third single and features the same captivating and immersive sound that he is becoming known for and takes the listener on an intoxicating journey to a gloomy and foreboding world. Jack’s forlorn vocal stylings are delicate yet powerful and reminiscent of underground ‘80s alternative bands, allowing the song to stand out and make an impact on first listen. The new single also features an equally impressive B-side titled “Wasting Time”, which serves as the perfect high-energy counterpart to the darker nature of “Sun Up My Sleeve”.

Speaking further on the new single, Jack says, “I feel that ‘Sun Up My Sleeve’ is a window into the loneliest part of my soul, where no hope lives, but an orange ray of light sometimes peeks through. It was recorded live in my home studio with my brother (Alfie H-W) on drums, Leo Major on synths, and bass by Dawson Kroeger. The original demo was recorded at the beginning of lockdown.” “Sun Up My Sleeve” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms.
