Please Insert Coin: ‘Games’ by The Octopus Division

‘Games’ by The Octopus Division If you love the 80s and don't know Matt Muncie (aka The Octopus Division), you've definitely missed something. But as it's never too late for good music, you can catch up on what you've missed anytime and almost anywhere.  The Octopus Division's latest work is called ‘Games’ and once again represents the decade of neon lights perfectly. The major sequences are classically chosen, and you'll be hooked from the start. Back in the world of arcade games, the song becomes an intense journey of self-discovery, describing personal growth. Timelessness and shared experiences emphasize the importance of interpersonal bonds. ‘Games’ creates a dreamy atmosphere that allows you to immerse yourself in another world and makes you think about the future - all because you pressed the start button.  The entire production clearly bears Matt's signature, with classic drums, synth arrangements, and above all, the usual concise vocal part, which...

Sunset Valley

Nächster Stopp, an diesem Montag, im April, Chelmsford,UK, dort "treffen" wir Roisin O'Hagan und ihren aktuellen Song "Sunset Valley". "...the best things are gonna take time...", lautet eine Zeile im neuesten Track, eine Zeile der Hoffnung, des Glaubens. 
Der Hauptdarsteller in ihrer Story hofft eines Tages die Person, welche er einst liebte bzw. noch immer liebt, wieder zu treffen, wo auch immer sie sich befinden mag. Die besten Dinge des Lebens brauch eben ihre Zeit. 
Musikalisch bewegt sich Roisin O'Hagan perfekt zwischen Americana meets Country meets Indie Pop. Diese brillante Mischung weiß sie geschickt zu nutzen und zaubert mit "Sunset Valley" einen Song der ein wenig an ein romantisches Lagerfeuer unter Vollmond erinnert. Prädestiniertes Storytelling für die zuvor erwähnden Genren respektive kreative Romantik mit einem Schuß Pop a la Taylor Swift wird geboten. 
"Sunset Valley" by Roisin O'Hagan definitiv eine großartige Performance und eine Bereicherung für unsere, wie auch für andere Playlists.
