Michael Rudolph Cummings: new video “This Is How I Get”!

US folk and alt-country artist MICHAEL RUDOLPH CUMMINGS presents a heartfelt third single taken from his new solo album “You Know How I Get”, to be released on October 21st as the third chapter of Ripple Music’s “Blood And Strings” acoustic series.

Says Michael Rudolph Cummings about this new track: “I have always felt songs were little gifts from instruments. The songs are in them already, it just takes time to hear them. This one came from an old 6-string banjo I picked up from a pile of broken instruments in a junk shop somewhere along the way. I think the song came out before I even got to be counter to pay for it. This is as close to the feeling of roaming night after night, town after town as I can get”.

And that scared me; not doing this record scared me.”

North London’s Sorry have today shared “Closer” – the final preview of their highly anticipated second album Anywhere But Here, out this Friday on Domino.

Sorry say, “The lyrics in ‘Closer’ came quickly in one gulp, it felt as if I was talking through quite a few people that had hurt me and me hurting people too. It’s about the person that we are made into sometimes by experiences or desire, and the shame that comes with that. It also is about addiction and the circular spiral of its pattern, rotating and returning. We wanted it to sound like a song from a NYC band in the noughties and the sound developed from there.”

AFTERMATH Warns There is “No Time to Waste” with New Single and Video

“‘No Time to Waste’ –words that everyone should live by in their daily lives. But the song is not about that. Rather it’s about all of us together having no time to waste as a free species. Everyone you talk to today says something isn’t right in the world and most can’t point out what it is that makes them feel that way. Their gut tells them something isn’t right. This song is about what we feel isn’t right with the world today and we urge people to wake up before it’s too late. It isn’t about being woke,but being awake. The song is at its core about unity and coming together to defeat our mutual enemy. Every great story has a hero and a villain. We the people are the hero in this song.” says Kyriakos “Charlie” Tsiolis.

Jay Fizzle Hosts a Paper Route Party in New “Won’t Cost Sh*t” Video

Released last month, DonaFizzo finds Jay fitting his flow into unexpected pockets on each stellar instrumental–including beats from heavy-hitters like Bandplay, Ayoza, and Sosa 808–with mutant-like machismo. With a style inspired by his own Master Splinter, Young Dolph, Fizzle’s desire to ascend from the gutter can be felt in every track. From the arcade villain-esque “Nike Check,” to the Mission: Impossible-esque bounce of “50 Freaky B*tches” ft. 21 Lil Harold, to the furiously flex-heavy “Nothing Into Something,” DonaFizzo hits harder than a bo-staff from start to finish.

They were the first to be written of the album and are meant to be ideas that seem like they could be expanded into intriguing larger stories but which are meant to remain as they are, each being a small spoken bit somewhere in each of the album’s tracks.

Influenced by Nick Drake, the Beatles, Cat Stevens and many more, Joyce explores themes of wanderlust, friendship, cherishing the here and now, and surviving in crises.

In addition to the singing, every instrument was played by the artist himself (double bass, guitar, mandolin, sitar, mellotron) – with the exception of the drums, which were recorded by Thomas Mantl, a long-time companion.
