Melodies roam, whisper into one's ear, enchant and captivate. Vocals sound, rise vigorously, stir and thrill with an alluring might. Jointly, both shape the glowing essence, the haunting euphony and rhythmic excitement music claims to combine. A dulcet harmony and vibrant atmosphere is brought into being, calms one's flustered mind, mends one's troubled soul, exalts one's imagination and titiliates one's senses, strikes a chord, affects and moves. Music in its charming and vivifying complexity bears the imprint of ease and serenity, of impulse and verve. All you need to do is, embrace and indulge.
BranchesThe Fireflys
When listening to the Fireflys' latest poignant creation of songwriting, 'Branches', one can't help but imagine sitting at a campfire, merging in the placid atmosphere of one's surroundings as well as of the song itself. Melodic memories of an early versionof the song flare up, tonally absorbing and imbuing already back then, however, now harmoniously complemented by Adele Halsall's smooth and passionate voice - the lead singer of pop/rock quartetChasing Infinity just recently joined forces with the soulful runcorn rock outfit, aiming to bring briskly melodious and emotionally evocative compositions into being. And with 'Branches' the band's calmly floating but powerful musicality is in bloom: Lee's husky and soothing voice stirs, whilst apollonian, ambient acoustic guitar serenades and rhythmically vibrant drummingblossom, whilst mellow harmonies soar and ardently dynamic guitarplay expands in a charming country-esque style. The song's lyrical narrationflows naturally, resonates stirring sentiment, remains minimalist though, shows a repetitive formula even, which does no harm to its gleaming emotionality at all. 'Branches' provides authentic and heartfelt music-making that prospers

Ex Girlfriend Emma Harrop
Emma Harrop's strong and soulful voice is a blessing considering nowadays shortage of great female indie vocalists, and, in association with a symphonious synergy of perky pop characteristics and acoustic tenderness, one to linger on in a copious fashion. The former 'My Heroine' frontwoman combines feisty instrumental and lyrical dynamics, blends in atmospheric guitar vivacity and tensely pulsating percussion momentum - what she gets is 'Ex Girlfriend', an energetic song that captivates with vivid rhythm and catchy, candid lyrics, one that equally rocks with fervent vocal vigor.

Different Beatthe broxton hundred
Richard Lucas (lead vocals/bass), Gary Yari-Gerrard (guitar/backing vocals), Richard Ormond (drums) & Joey Berry (bass)
Edgy and ardent vocals glimmer whilst vivifying and sonorously cadenced drumming flutters, whilst spirited and dimly oscillating riffage of frisky and funky reverb commands a constantly solid and dynamically moody composition. Undoubtedly, 'Different Beat' hits the mark with lovers of infectiously beat-driven, rhythmically diverse and jaunty musical verve.
Just Another Girlthe broxton hundred
With refreshingly fiery and gripping vocal edge, with orotund and ludically thrilling riffage of lively levity, with energetically clangorous drum beats Broxton Hundred succeed in setting the tone - namely, a vivace and buzzy one.
Suspenseful guitar buoyancy heralds boisterous melodic impetus yet to come, as deep, ceremonious vocal humming, accompanied by ponderous and steadily stomping drum strokes, ascends and merges in a nebulously haunting, feisty vocal epiphany: 'Gold And Green' boasts with fiercely revolting, thunderous riffage, with cloudy bass gloom and bold, pompous drum rhythm soon after, evoking a grave and solemn mood throughout, and conclusively manifests as an electrifying and atmospheric composition.

Can You Hear MeThe Sonic Revolvers

Black Lake 1inFive
Chris Roche (keys/guitar), Mike Brother-Cheer (guitar), Jason Halsall (vocals/guitar), James Twaites (bass), Matt Hill (drums)
A melodious, vivid key arrangement unfolds exuberantly and bestows lively instrumental flair upon 'Black Lake' which bears the imprint of inciting original music, moreover is a bow to authentic rock'n'roll. Bluesy, vehement and cocky vocal uproar is sonorously backed, aligns with the stormily staggering, vim-ladden and zestfully clangorous instrumental pulse of a firm and impetuous belter.
