Bright New Single From Mazey Haze

Dutch artist Nadine Appledoorn came on my radar a year ago with her new musical project Mazey Haze and her tunes have been hitting my frequent streams on the regular. Today I am beyond happy to share with you her latest new tune entitled “The Weight of the Weekend”. When one gets the label “indie pop” sometimes it can be a convoluted and vague genre description, but for me, this is truly a perfectly done indie pop tune. It’s light while maintaining a level of brightness and drops in short moments of upbeat, rock sounds to keep this thing engaging and mesmerizing for its short 3.5 minutes. Stay tuned.

Bright New Single From Mazey Haze

Amsterdam based artist Nadine Appledoorn records and makes music under the creative moniker Mazey Haze. She has burst onto the scene this year with the announcement of a debut EP called Always Dancing coming on October 22nd which will feature this stunning new song “Headspin”. Appledoorn combine so many elements of bands I love like Alvvays, Camera Obscura, etc. but also adds in this sort of pop star vibe to give the tune her own, unique spin. I think you’ll be hearing a lot more from Mazey Haze in the future.

Fort Not Drop Another Charmer

I can’t tell you how excited I am to hear the whole of the new Fort Not LP; we’ve already been teased with two delectables, and now we’ve got another. I love how there’s an implied nod to indiepop in the band’s sound, though here, they kind of pull back just a little bit to craft this timelessness you only get in the purest of pop purveyors. For me, it’s the vocals pulling that off; they have this sort of breezy warmth, like basking on the beach as they crash into your face. Plus, it doesn’t hurt that its coming out on one of my favorite labels of the moment, Meritorio Records; they’ll release The Club is Open on September 18th.
