Kevin Rieth grew up in York, PA and was almost immediately obsessed with all things music, from banging on pots and pans to requesting The Beatles’ “Get Back” during preschool singalong.

He took up the trumpet in fifth grade, and the rest is history. Kevin is a proud member of the LGBTQ community and currently resides in San Diego, CA with his cat, Simon.

Robert Dufresne

Nach "Hug the line" stellt sich Kevin Rieth jetzt mit "Robert Dufresne" vor und diese Vorstellung ist schier perfekt, ganz im Stile seiner großen Vorbilder wird im Power Pop/Rock inszeniert. Nach seinem Debüt dachte ich mir, "das wird schwer zu toppen sein", aber er belehrte mich eines besseren und setzte mit seiner zweiten Single noch eins drauf.

Der Sound lässt einen nostalgisch werden und zurückblicken. Das Arrangement stimmig, die Vocalparts ein Genuss, immer wieder wird man an diese wundervollen Musikepoche erinnert.

Die Inspiration zur Geschichte liefern zwei Figuren aus Kevins musikalischer Vergangenheit, Robert ein fröhlicher, barfuß tanzender Mann, in seinem Wesen unbekümmert, dem gegenüber Nina, seine Geliebte aus Spanien, mit der Vergangenheit einer Kleinkriminellen ausgestattet. "...a whimsical journey through an alternate reality...", so der Künstler selbst.

"Robert Dufresne" by Kevin Rieth, Baroque Pop meets Power Pop meets the story of Robert and Nina and paints a wonderfully colourful picture framed by an extraordinary artist.

Definitely a hidden gem and if I have to give this little masterpiece a name I would call it "The nostalgic present" of Kevin Rieth.

#DanceNOW! Double Triangle, Carlos Ucedda - "I adore you (Double Triangle Remix)"

If the song sounds familiar to you now, we have already presented Carlos Ucedda and ‘I adore you’ once before; back then, the song was still very 80s (greetings to Luke Tangerine at this point). Together with Double Triangle, they take a step further into the 90s. You could almost say: ‘I adore you’ has arrived in the golden era of techno. The remix shows Double Triangle in top form, with good progression that keeps up the tension and simultaneously proves that, together with Carlos Ucedda, they can also capture the 90s flair magnificently and present it in the style of the 2000s. Great Remix of a fantastic Song by the end of the year!

OUTNOW! Dichtboi - "Wer bin ich¿"

"Wer bin ich¿" zeigt eine tiefe Identitätskrise und Sinnsuche des Menschen. Dichtboi symbolisiert den verzweifelten Versuch, der Realität durch Illusionen zu entfliehen. Der Text erinnert daran, dass wahrer Mut darin besteht, sich den Herausforderungen des Lebens zu stellen und Erfüllung innerhalb der realen Grenzen zu suchen, oder es wird zur Flucht in eine andere Welt, die leider oft nur einen Ausweg kennt. Und so bleibt am Ende der Beginn einer neuen Ebene der Existenz. Nachdenkliches von Dichtboi zum Jahresende.

#ListenNOW! ‘Impulsein (ft. Micheline van Hautem)’ by Jean-Philippe Ruelle

Who hasn't experienced the initial excitement of new love? Intense and pulsating. Everything is new, and there is so much to discover. Jean-Philippe Ruelle picks up on this theme and stages it in ‘Impulsein’. While the first part is still characterised by this positive hectic pace, the second part plunges us into a continuation dominated by passion. The vocals and instrumentation are given great impetus by the sophisticated arrangement and bring a great deal of musical depth. ‘Impulsein’ by Jean-Philippe Ruelle and the beauty of an instrumental.

#OUTNOW! Eutanásia - "Eutanásia (Album)"

In his work, post-punk merges with electronic textures and guitars, drawing the listener into the dark alleys of existence; it is a descent into the catacombs of the underground, into the realm of longing and the unknown. Eutanásia (aka Pedro Werner) is the name of the artist who has just released his debut album of the same name. The lead single, ‘Doce Demais’ (feat. Two Internet Ghosts), is just a small excerpt from it and shows just one nuance of the multi-layered album. Not just for genre fans!
