Ghost Loft Astronaunt Remix

JOEL COMPASS

“ASTRONAUT (GHOST LOFT REMIX)”
OUT NOW
 
The London-born singer, songwriter, and producer Joel Compass offers an impressive combination of undeniable talent and huge commercial appeal. His latest track, “Astronaut,” got the Ghost Loft treatment this week, and now you can take it in. It’s got all of Ghost Loft’s trademarks – those spacey synths most especially. And don’t worry, it’s still got that awesome falsetto courtesy of Joel Compass. How could it not?
This is one where it makes me feel like I’m in a dream sequence.  “Astronaut” is a slower song and isn’t one that will have you up and dancing like crazy.  It is one were I could see danced to as a slow song where you have your partner in close and sharing this strange yet graceful dream.  I don’t know if I could listen to it multiple times in a row, but it is unique enough that I would have a place on my playlist for slower songs.

Two New Releases by Divine Fits

Divine Fits has released to new music videos for their new songs “Chained to Love” and “Ain’t That The Way”.  The sound of this band, for me is reminiscent of the ’60’s to early ’70’s bands.  The music is light and doesn’t over power the lead singer.  The music videos are kitschy as well with the “Chained to Love” being edited around old black & white movie scenes and then the “Ain’t That the Way” video  having that 1970 television feel.  Watch the videos below and see what you think and be sure to go to Wild Honey Pie’s site for more indie news http://www.thewildhoneypie.com/

Anna Rose’s New Album

The Enchanting Anna Rose Returns With
Behold A Pale Horse
Available August 6

 

 
 
When I listen to the two songs above they have two distinct feels.  Some artists stay in one grove, but Anna changes it up a little.  On “Behold a Pale Horse” to me it has a Folk feel to it with some Southern Rock mixed in for good measure.  Then you shift gears a little for “Beautiful World”.  “Beautiful World” feels like a Pop Country song.  I enjoyed both tracks and I like that the music doesn’t over power Anna’s voice.  It has a nice clear sound to it.
Check out the video links above and then see if she will be in your area below.

Glimpse Inside Ghibli Museum With Matsutoya’s Music Video

EMI Records is currently streaming a part of Yumi Matsutoya’s music video for the theme song for the upcoming, Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli’s, The Wind Rises flim.  The song is entitled Hikoki Gumo (Airplane Cloud).  What makes the music video so unique is because part of it is filmed in the Ghibli Museum, which does not allow photos or videos to be taken in the museum.  So thank you to the Ghibli Museum and EMI Records for allowing this rare look inside the museum walls.

Art Decade’s Release from Upcoming Album

Art Decade Debuts Forceful New Single

“No One’s Waiting” on Consequence of Sound
 
 
This song isn’t a head banger or a fast pop song nor is it a really slow ballad.  “No One’s Waiting” falls somewhere in between.  I love the background music and the feel it gives to the single.  This is one that could be featured real easily in a movie sound track.  Give it a shot by clicking the link above, I think you will enjoy it.
 
“No One’s Waiting” is from Art Decade’s upcoming LP due out September 2013

Ep. 13 of ComicPop Visits with Metropolis America’s Lead Vocalist Cristian Mora

In this episode April, Chris and Richard visit with the lead vocalist and bass player Cristian Mora, of the band Metropolis America.  Cristian was kind enough to take time out of his busy schedule to talk with us about the band’s music and current project for the Summer with their “Cold Pop” Tracks.  We had a great time and enjoyed having him on the show.  You can click the link below to listen to the visit, go to our website, www.comicpoplibrary.com, or catch it on our iTunes feed when it uploads a little later.

After you listen to the show, check out the links below to Metropolis America’s FaceBook page and their website where Cristian commented that listeners can download their music at no cost!  You can’t beat great music at that price and it shows how serious the band is about sharing their music with their fans.  The site also has their music videos that you can watch and you can sign up for their e-newsletter to get updated information on the band, when it happens.

I want to thank Margo Drgos, of the MuseBox, for helping behind the scenes to make this visit possible.

Creed Bratton’s “Unemployment Line”

THE OFFICE’S

 

CREED BRATTON 

Premieres His Heartfelt Music VIDEO

Creed Bratton’s weathered sagacity is never more
apparent than on “Unemployment Line.”  The new video features shots of Bratton fingerpicking his acoustic guitar in an overgrown field, contrasted with meditative shots of today’s America – all strip malls, car dealerships, dilapidated freeways, and marginal communities.

Creed is speaking through his music for the majority of people facing unemployment during these hard times, with “Unemployment Line”.  Most people if it is not effecting them, they now someone that it is facing the unemployment line or a lesser paying job.  Sending out a prayer to all that this is happening to and for all the countries of the world that this hardship will end soon.
“Unemployment Line” is off of

Ghost Loft Takes on “LNOE”

BRITISH / CANADIAN INDIE OUTFIT
The High Wire
Premiere FREE Ghost Loft Remix of Buzzed About Single “LNOE”

“’LNOE’ captivates with a high-flying melody that sticks, but the indie pop anthem has been transplanted into an electronic setting, taking on an almost apocalyptic tone that makes the “last night on Earth” line really come to life.”
Ghost Loft has been busy this last year in Remixing songs for several groups.  This is another one to add to their portfolio, “LNOE” performed by The High Wire.
 
The High Wire began in 2007 as a vehicle for singer/songwriter Tim Crompton. Tim started out recording tracks solo with Producer Julian Simmons (Guillemots, Midlake), until West coast Canadian Alexia Hagen and UK native Ross Forrest joined Tim as core members of The High Wire and the three-piece vision was established.
