Gelli Haha Drops Normalize

Over the last couple of months I’ve been completely mesmerized by the work of Gelli Haha; she’s offering a spin on pop music with a bit of electronic club culture pushing the sound. The influence of the groove on this track is drawn from 80s Nigerian boogie (remind me to look into that!), and it’s got this hazy club bop to it; the sort that sees you grooving on the dancefloor drenched in sweat as the bass shakes your core. Gelli’s voice lets the tune filter in an immense pop sensation, and in a way, it feels like modern disco, dreamily coating the club in a huge sound. Her album Switcheroo drops on June 27th via Innovative Leisure.

Gelli Haha Shares Spit Video

When you find yourself stuck in a musical rut, sometimes you just need to kick over your chair, stand up and dance…and what better way to get started than by cranking up this new Gelli Haha track. A self-imposed rule of only using “S” words creates this artistic layer to the project, along with the incredible video by David Gutel that has Gelli strapped into some absurd scientific experiment. For me, I got locked into this groove, wrapped around a tight little punch that feels like you’re running in place at full steam. It’s propulsive, but stationary, locked into this groove that forces your body to convulse in a freeing fashion. Not sure what all that means? Press play below and grab Switcheroo on June 27th from Innovative Leisure.

Gelli Haha Shares Funny Music

If you’re ready to let yourself go, seeing as it’s Wednesday, you might want to settle in and crank up this new Gelli Haha jam. You can play the first 55 seconds alone, thrusting yourself into this realm of twisting beats and kaleidoscope of pop hooks, but you won’t have to wait too much longer for the vocals to enter the picture. At times, they sound synthetically angelic, like they’re transmitted from the heavens; they then get spliced up with various other vocal samples, shooting in and out of the textured layers. Suddenly, the pop twists, albeit briefly, hitting harder and sharper, almost with more purpose dropping from the vocals here. You’re not going to be able to find your footing here, as you’ll be joyously spun about, round and round until you find yourself grabbing a copy of Switcheroo, out on June 27th via Innovative Leisure.

Stream New Album From Sam Blasucci

Like most Fridays, lots of great albums are dropping today, but I’d like to point your attention to the new one from L.A. based musician Sam Blasucci. Now I’ve previously shared his stunning tune “Witching Hour” so you should be familiar with the general sound. Expanding on that track, Blasucci has an expansive, fourteen track album highlighting his skill at creating alternative pop tunes. He flows between twangy alt-country, 60s lounge, and a wealth of other styles and genres. Check out Real Life Thing in full below and enjoy the adventure.

Of course if you’re feeling the album, consider a purchase. It comes through a joint release from Calico Discos and Innovative Leisure.

Sam Blasucci Returns With Witching Hour

Sam Blasucci really caught my ear around this time last year with the release of his debut solo LP Off My Stars, which was a heavily spun piece by me. Blasucci doesn’t have any plans to slow down with his new solo work as another new album of material entitled Real Life Thing is due out on November 1st via Innovative Leisure. Prior to the full album, Sam was kind enough to send along a preview of the new material with this single “Witching Hour.” It turns a little bit, and delivers a more piano driven, slight Elton John undertone of inspiration, sound. I am here for it.

Friday Album Streams: Rural France, Joyer, Writhing Squares and More

Definitely a busy week on the album release list, and if I had more time, I’d be way into reviews. But, life always seems to be in the way, so the best way I can throw my weight behind great music is to give you a chance to stream some of the really solid albums that dropped on the Internet this weekend. So, just check out all the records below, and be sure to buy!

Maria Chiara Argiro Releases Floating

Not quite sure how many times I’ve hit play on this new Maria Chiara Argiro, but I must admit, this might be my absolute favorite of the singles off her new LP. There’s a lot that’s said about her experience in classical music training, and the way the craft develops throughout the first few minutes of this tune, it’s clear she’s well-versed in a creative build. A light autotune vocal creeps in, and as that tune gets electronically molded you can hear the faintest pulse working beneath the tune; I found that it kind of created this swinging movement within the tune that may entirely have been made up inside my brain. My love revolves around the fact that things don’t stop there, instead building and blossoming into this heavy groove that’s built upon this majesty of electronic movement. You better believe Closer is going to turn some heads when it drops on April 26th via Innovative Leisure.

Maria Chiara Argiro Announces Closer

I need to admit, I was initially drawn to this new track from Maria Chiara Argiro because of the striking contemporary dance performance; there was something both unsettling and intriguing, which led me deeper into Argiro’s track. It opens carefully, almost tip-toeing into the beat and piano lines; when Maria describes her new record as ‘a dream I’m sort of walking through,” you can almost feel that in the first minute. Then, the vocals began to crawl through the cracks, layered with little backing notes that out this otherworldly element matching up with the video portrayal. If you’re looking for something super cool, something you can sink into, then look for Closer; it drops on April 26th via Innovative Leisure.

Check Out 300 Miles From Mirror Tree

Los Angeles based artist Michael Gold writes and creates music under the moniker Mirror Tree and I am here to fully push his new project. Just today, this new single “300 Miles” hit the ground and features this intricate interplay of sounds ranging from psych, to indie pop to traditional Bengali folk. With such a blend of styles, one might expect the song to fall apart, but it does the opposite as it melds everything into a lovely pop number. Seeing the joy on Gold’s face in the video should also draw you into the song and it’s vibes.

Mirror Tree will be releasing this song as part of a debut LP due out on September 8th via Innovative Leisure. Pre-orders are live now.

Allah-Las Share the Stuff

What is the stuff you ask? To be frank, I don’t quite know what “the stuff” is, but I do know that this cock-sure brood from Allah-Las offers a glimpse at a newer sound for the group. They’re still employing a sound heavy on the work of the riffs, though here, they’re sort of steadied and almost marching to the beat running below. You can’t deny that the band still have the effortless cool locked in here, though it’s nice to see them get one foot out of the pigeonholed psych category. This single comes with the announcement of Zuma 85, their new LP for Innovative Leisure, coming your way on October 13th.
