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...

Anachronistic Alchemy: “He Brings Trouble” by Transit Cop

“He Brings Trouble” by Transit Cop

Transit Cop from Cheltenham, UK, have come of age. Seventeen years have passed, yet they’ve retained their youthful charm and fused it with the energy of the present. Their latest release, “He Brings Trouble,” is a frenetic swan song to a troublemaker. Accompanied by a fantastic riff, Guy Lewis showcases his vocal prowess, capturing the chaos in palpable moods. 
Driven by the drums, they race through the alleys of memorability without looking back. Time flies too quickly, and suddenly, you’re grown up. Drums and synthesizers are perfectly linked by the bass, creating a timeless sound that sets them apart. 
“He Brings Trouble” revives the past without sounding retro. Perhaps these seventeen years had to pass for them to reach their maturity. The wait has definitely been worth it, and anticipation for their next release is already at the starting blocks. We eagerly await to see if they can top “He Brings Trouble.” It will be challenging, but I believe they still have quite a bit up their sleeve. 





For anyone wondering who Transit Cop are, here is the answer: 
Transit Cop consists of 
Guy Lewis (lead vocals, guitar), 
Marcus Attwood (bass and guitar), 
Andy Brotherton (drums), 
Russ Mulligan (guitar) and, 
Paul Richards (keyboards and synths)
