King Yosef announces new EP & shares “Fair Bloom” video
“”Fair Bloom” is a song that I’ve been excited to share because it’s leaning into a new sonic space that I haven’t showcased before. This feels like my first real singing release as well as full band feeling, and is closer to what I’ve always wanted my music to be. The lyrical premise is my relationship with God as a child and the strange isolation of having religious family who “feel” his spirit and guidance, and feeling the opposite way and not having the tools to make sense of it. It is a song of empowerment and finality to my younger self’s questions.”

With Love, Foo Fighters

Fresh off the lead single “See It Through” with another label regular Qlank, the Phoenix-based house producer Ekonovah is ready to share his sophomore EP with the world.

Vitesse X’s debut LP ‘Us Ephemeral’ + Video out now!
“I made this track in the dead of winter during the pandemic last year. I was super isolated, spending most of my time in my basement studio, feeling just incredibly stir crazy.
