Music Submission: Ben Vogel
Smart pop music that surges with rock and roll energy! A singer-songwriter & multi-instrumentalist whose music has been called “familiar but never derivative,” Ben honed his skills on the central Texas club circuit before relocating to Coeur d’ Alene, Idaho. Informed by a half-century’s worth of concise, hook-filled guitar pop, yet with a 21st-century freshness, Ben’s first album Whistling After Midnight was released in 2019. The single “Cassidy” gained radio play on WNUR and CHiRP in the Chicagoland area and was well reviewed by a handful of outlets including I Don’t Hear a Single, making their top 10 list for the year. Ben is self-producing and playing all the instruments on his follow-up album, due out in August 2022 and preceded by the single “You’re Only Drowning.”

Music Submission: Edge Of The World
Talking to us about the release Edge Of The World share: “Most of the songs are Vladimir’s personal experiences, the relationship between a man and a woman, but the main song from the album called “Signs”is about something else, something maybe even mystical, hidden side of our life. Global issues are regulated by a small group of people, very rich people, we can say that our world is ruled by money, you can buy everything you want, if you have enough money: food, clothing, human resources or even man himself, and this is so sad! Those people who have gathered money and resources, act solely in their own interests, and not in the interests of society. And that’s what this song is about, most people have sold themselves for nothing, they work at a job they don’t like, they buy things they don’t need, they eat junk food, they don’t sleep well and suffer from depression, and why? because they sold themselves for nothing, but sooner or later all this will collapse overnight and people will realise that they are chasing false values.”
