Layer Cake – Debut Single: Keep Me Awake

What came out has been compared to Brit rock favourites such as the Arctic Monkeys and The Kooks – however you can compare us to whoever you like, as long as they are incredibly more successful than us and we can live vicariously through an over fluffed complimentary comparison.

Frank James – ‘Killah’ Single & Video

Shackled to an unusual hip-hop inspired beat and driven by James’s raw vocals and steel string guitar its indie-folk as you haven’t heard it before: effortlessly edgy, stripped down and sultry. Killah is latest single off James’s debut release The Hopecity EP which was recorded and produced in London by Brendan Davies.

“I really wanted to emphasise the power a woman can have on you with this track not just lyrically but sonically too the way they can draw you in that’s the guitar, the chaos they can cause that’s the beat and although you know you should leave because it just might kill you, you stay that’s the hook” – Frank James

J. Bruno’s dreamy slacker-pop, psych-soul infused ballad ‘Lose Yourself’

The track draws on both pop and hiphop inspirations, but in a hippie-sort-of-way, where the main focal point is J. Bruno’s clear and rhythmic vocal that has a persuading cool and old school sound to it. It’s a slow and groovy track, packed in an oozing lo-fi and a tight bottom. A picturesque universe infused by a mix of soul, psychedelic rock and old school love ballads with romantic stories crooned and whispered on top.

VULGARIANS | Share new video

It’s a tongue-firmly-in-cheek video from the band that follows the demise of clown’s career, drawing a narrative from the satiric theme of the title. Speaking about the clip, drummer, Connor Cheesman says: “The main concept behind the video is that of a failed children’s entertainer. He’s essentially looking for a place to bury himself, so he can be loved and appreciated again – hence the title of the track. He searches high and low for the perfect site, but eventually finds it in an unlikely place.”

Skope single submission: J.Lately, “Fun’s Up”. Bay Area emcee, Locksmith collaborator

“This song is about the feeling of working a long week, finishing your shift late Friday night, getting your paycheck, then hitting your friends up like ‘don’t tell me the party is over already’, metaphorically speaking,” J. says. “It’s about appreciating the fun moments in life that we work so hard for, and even if they’re just fleeting moments, enjoying them as much as possible before they’re gone. The summer may be coming to an end, but the fun is definitely not up.”
