‘Fake Sick!’ by George Alley

George Alley wears many hats: from being a professor to serving as a curator, he’s involved in everything related to art. A prolific music contributor for UK’s Loverboy Magazine, where he interviews notable musicians, he is also a podcaster for the top-ten iTunes comedy show “I’m Going to Kill You!” and the pandemic-themed cast “Queerona.” And, most importantly (for us), he’s a composer and performer.

We’ve introduced this versatile artist from Philadelphia before, and we remember tracks like ‘Doctor Doctor’ and ‘Just Leave Me Dreaming.’ Now, he’s making a comeback. The mood is much brighter and more colorful. Musically, he blends great indie pop/rock sounds with psychedelic punk, resulting in George Alley’s "Prince Charming Pop-Punk". It’s like a soft mix of Bon Jovi meets Katrina and the Waves.

Inspired by Oscar Wilde’s thought that ‘to love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance,’ George Alley infuses his music with guitar riffs that capture the energy and rebellious spirit of self-love. Authentically executed, the DIY ethos captures the intoxication of the present, embracing the spontaneity of the moment. This spirit is vividly portrayed in ‘Fake Sick!,’ the latest single by George Alley.

ListenNOW! "Misery" from the new album CASUALTY by Straight Razor

#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.
