The Manic Standstill
Reasons Why Wiretap / Double Helix Records The LA music scene is as vibrant as it is diverse, influences from all corners of the atlas get a mention and a sounding in the many venues large and small across the metropolis. From working with giants like Save Ferris, The Two Tens, Josie Cotton, and Richie Ramone, The Manic Standstill frontman Adam Bones puts it all back into the system with his sleek and stylish song writing. The band of today was formed after the recording of this track, with it being the foundation stone for the next chapter in the Bones logbook. This recording captures the energy of Aixa Vilar and Michelle Rangel from Go Betty Go’s rhythm section plus Prima Donna’s Kevin Preston on backing vocals. His method of what he calls ‘kidnapping’ musicians to perform on the material has led to a huge album that’s dotted with talent from all over the scene. This is just the first story. So, what are the Reasons Why? A wall of guitars smashes the tune into being with drums rolling and breaking along the first few bars. A grunge and punk style riff then hammers itself into shape and the vocals begin. A great voice, with a sense of rock star and stadiums, the track carries through the punk rhythm on the drums with layers of harmonising guitars playing power chords and bass throbbing along with the scale. Reasons Why from The Manic Standstill is a fantastic surge of punchy punk riff-based hard rock. You can follow The Manic Standstill on Facebook and Instagram

Bass Legend Ben Basile Brings Us Home To 74 Leonard Street Where Ska Jazz Is Served All Night25/3/2025 
Ben Basile
74 Leonard Street Sleep Walk Sounds The next single from the forthcoming debut album Benergy from Ben Basile, bassist from Big D and the Kids Table, is here to stay. It’s named after an address, which seeing as it’s Sleep Walk Sounds conjures images of Madness and baggy trousers. It turns out that 74 Leonard Street was a great ska-punk venue that entertained swathes over its all-too-short lifetime. The Old Knitting Factory became the genre’s go-to place in the Manhattan area during the 2000s and some of the most memorable sounds evolved from at least one root in that club. Particularly reputed for the jazz influence on the ska scene, the use of the brass section became more flamboyant and orchestral thanks to the reaction of the crowds to that sound. Ben Basile knows a few things about his specialism, his degree in Music and Jazz Studies makes him an ideal candidate to be the bassist with the universe all his own. If you’re still in a dressing gown and slippers then it’s okay, this is made for you. A smooth and laid-back sensation laps across the bars as generous brass and bass links arms in arm to manifest a tune. A lean to the left, one side of the orchestra flourishes, a swagger to the right, and the organ and trumpet have a go. Everyone gets to shine in the Benergy sphere, there’s a great reggae backdrop that floats along on classical music inflections that could have come from Chopin. A wandering technique carries the music from phrase to phrase through leafy suburbs of sonically enriching seductions. Or is that productions? The album will be brilliant.

Yarin Glam
Rebel Los-Angeles Since Israeli Yarin Glam moved to LA, she has been following her passion and making the most incredible music. With thousands of followers across all the channels from around the globe, her sounds are enjoyed on a mass media level. She’s been featured in magazines like Earmilk, Wonderland, Notion, and Atwood. Yarin Glam’s RnB style is infused with her cultural traditions, with middle eastern influence touching every thought she has. Expressing lyrics about being free-spirited, challenging mental health, and rising above social expectations, you can’t judge a book by its cover, and you can’t judge a woman by her pretty face. You have to listen to her song. So let’s go. It opens with a great snappy rhythm that takes control. A bass sinks down to take the lead as Yarin begins to sing. She begins to explain that she’s not your orthodox kind of girl, and the beat hits with a rising pulse. Harmonies and synths begin to take the song into a new level as the beat continues to push harder. Interesting and clever, the mix is full of vocal mixing and layers of effect that create a mosaic of emotion and groove. A fun and easy-going track, Rebel from Yarin Glam is as anthemic as it is repeatable. She’s put her soul into the sound and it’s as good as they get.

Peter Murphy
The Artroom Wonder Metropolis Records Make a date for the 9th of May, that’s the day when the new Peter Murphy album Silver Shade is released. But first, we can enjoy the next single from the record. Since featuring Boy George in a duet with his previous Let The Flowers Grow, this new album takes the post-punk permanent to the next level. Fans have already been given Swoon, the first track since that memorable experience, and now The Artroom Wonder is here to continue the story. Written about Peter’s experience with former Bauhaus bandmate Daniel Ash, as senior school students they once sneaked into the 6th form common room which served as the art classroom and heard the most incredible music. Continuing the theme of guest musicians, for The Artroom Wonder it’s the turn of Tool bassist Justin Chancellor. This time it’s Murphy and company who get to be the cool kids playing the incredible music. Let’s sneak in. A retro synth enters with a catchy bass tone, it creates an upbeat rhythm with a sludgy sensation. Then a drumbeat joins the current and adds a bit of voltage. A marching beat that’s a bit faster than a casual walk takes us on and into an adventurism of sound. Peter Murphy begins; his voice captures everything we love about the genre. As the verse viscously moves onward the music simmers and then boils with harmony and melodic additions. The vocal ats like a bass tone in the flow as the synthesiser catches the feel and flings the families of tone into the sky. With a creativity and picturesque lyrical inventiveness, we’re drawn into this mysterious and fascinating world of the artroom. Kindled from dreams, based on experience, matured in the cellar of the mind, and expressed through song, a potent number indeed.

Smitech Wesson
Whisper (featuring Teresa Meads) Türkiye He’s a monster on the synthesiser desk with huge, resounding numbers following back to back. They’re always charged and motivated, with something dark and something entertaining making waves among the layers. Using his knowledge of what feels good to him and exploring the way music creates sensations and motivations with its rhythm and melody, Smitech Wesson brings home the biscuits as his output never fails to capture the thread and weave something golden. He’s worked on plenty of music over the years and now he’s ready with his latest EP. This three-track hammer-head shark is ready to bite when you are, so with the skills of Teresa Meads, here is the title-track Whisper. A catchy melody begins the music with a dance vibe that sounds almost retro. Piano decorated with electronic nuance; the rhythm takes hold as the vocals begin. Teresa Meads offers a vocal trance style musicality; her melodic journey takes us through the words like a picture book. A wave of new sounds leaps in as the bass rises, and the drums evolve to offer a much deeper drive into the valley of sound. A push of energy maintains the upbeat momentum as the rhythms create a neat and organised dance foundation. An abstract sense from the vocal line lifts the entire piece into a dreamy haze.

The Enchanting Electronic Universe Of Cyrnai Is Alive With Sound And The Calamity Of Beauty20/3/2025 
Cyrnai
Calamity Of Beauty California She’s a dab hand with the studio and imagination; California’s Cyrnai widens the scope of electronic music production with her artistic character. Since the 1980s, the escapism and adventurist flavour of her creativity has given rise to mesmerising and memorable sounds. As a part of her highly-acclaimed renaissance, Carolyn Fok AKA Cyrnai is preparing to release her new album into the wild. Calamity Of Beauty is another crafted road of neo-kosmische and industrial techno that is as adaptive as it is apt. A double A single is out now that includes the title track Calamity Of Beauty plus another stunning cut in Pandemonium Framework. This duo of disco improvers can only create desire for the record, which is out sooner than later. This is Cyrnai with Calamity Of Beauty. The track opens with a ghosting synth that permeates the atmosphere with multiple voices in unison and harmony. Strings, woodwind, nature, and more all combine in a thrust of suction and composition that can only draw us in. Memorable depths of haunting clarity fold into new and glittering spaces of sonic fascination. Space-age technologies and humanist gusts of emotional charge collide like moons on the horizon of breaking infinity. Gripping timbres in solitude rise from a wave of fizzling orchestrations and lean out like hands eager to be grasped. Can we hold on?
