 Alex Uhlmann Only For A Minute Germany Exchanging his tennis racket for a guitar and a microphone, self-taught Alex Uhlmann has conquered his own mountain and now is on the radio. Once a professional sportsman, that same ethos of hard work, training, and pushing the personal best has come in very handy when it comes to learning a new set of skills. With the added talent factor, Alex Uhlmann became the lead singer in Friday Night Hero, a popular indie-rock band that's enjoyed plenty of TV exposure. Now with a proficient solo career as well, Only For A Minute brings the latest composition out in the open. Sounds of a busy scene burst into guitar and vocal. Falsetto pitches reach into the lofty spaces of the heart as bouncy and sunny chords frolic in the groove. Drums and keyboards add extra layers to the drive, slow and sleek passing time brings avenues of sonic clarity to the mix. Emotionally relevant words and catchy chorus hooks let the music gracefully slide through the room in an easy going saunter. As it progresses, new layers of harmony and throbbing drums reveal a raw and powerful backbone.

Asking his wife for help, together they were able to help discover what he was all about. A process of self-discovery meant that Gavin Fox could gradually find the true man behind the image and pseudo-confidence. It's a blessing to have someone in your life who can help with these things and yet ultimately they have to be explored alone. With his new single, If I Could Survive This, Gavin Fox describes through music his personal and intimate journey to authenticity. A melodic rock guitar riff opens the track as drums and bass roar into the mix carried by a snappy vocal. Swagger and sway frames the pace as quick step words fire phonics into the space crafted by the warm and choppy backing. All the while a rock sensibility is delivered by heavy bass and fast guitar chord progressions. Smooth chorus elements brace the friction from the verses as the energy is transmuted from one mood to another in neat manoeuvres.

The Overview Effect sees Dublin's Peter Fitzpatrick AKA Circuit3 tease the earbuds with premier skills in the run-up to his third studio album. An EP that offers a multi-faceted approach to the track sees Circuit3 and friends test and hypothesise within the realms of the framework, experimenting and exploring the capabilities of his talents, Overview Effect was mastered by Richard Dowling. He's also worked with Kylie Minogue, Motorhead, Paul McCartney, Foo Fighters, and David Bowie, so it's just daft to claim modern electronica isn't proper music. A volley of blip synth opens the track as moody melodics flow into the main movement. Vocals from Alessia Turcato add a duet to the sound, pretty synthesiser fills add spectral and cosmically inclined bounce. A sway of harmonies brush against drops of twinkling tone that spiral and burst around the elevated lyrical passages. Rhyming words and repeating chorus lines keep us snug as a disparate sense of spaciousness yields eternal escapism within the composition.

The response was fantastic and with everything in place, and a long list of performances now behind them, the band release Avec Muscles EP. Ride is the single, which is already gaining global attention thanks to radio play all over the place. Bursts of toneful guitar sway in chimney clouds as the locomotion of the music leaves the platform. With tension rising on each bar and a delicate layer of melodic vocal, a progressive sense of kinesis ensues. A string begins to wail within the forward motion as elevated passengers see smooth landscapes blur within their static chambers. Evocative and imaginative passages lean in and offer secrets through the dreamy passing of musical time. You can visit ATMIG online Follow ATMIG on Facebook and Twitter

The two friends Seven Doran and Brian Murphy discovered a shared love of egg on toast and catchy up-beat music. Merging the elements of pop music that make it sound good and the artful lyricism that rock bands do so well, Ernest Moon fill the void many have wished for. The single and album were produced during the lockdown with recording sessions at Liverpool's Ark Recording Studio. Described as an innocent plea in a screaming narcissistic age, Unkind uses a 6/8 rhythm and reflects on some of the day's genuine and pseudo moral qualities. A chilled drum-score splashes into tranquil waters as bass greets violin to produce a waft of warming energy. Grasses sway in the wind as the smooth progression leans over. Vocals begin, guitar with warm and crisp distortion twinkles like hazy starlight through indigo horizons. Lush harmonies reach through the composition as strings and vocal buoyantly drift on choppy drums and sparkling bars.

 Richard Evans Brave New World From Sentinel Cold Star Media Ex James keyboard player Richard Evans has just released his debut album. Brave New World is the video single that flagships his electro sound. Synthwave and electronica sound like the future and what better way to push the boat out than by singing about it, too.

The Manchester based musician has achieved nine awards already from the British Arts Council and another from Creative England. How does he do it? Swishes of sound resonate with vibration and tone as the swelling begins. Keyboard layers smooch in darkly lit corridors as jostling harmonies make room for a swaggering percussion layer. Formations of like-minded bars add to the direction of the groove which invites the lyrics to begin. A brit-pop sound to Richard Evans' voice provides a soulful edge to the upbeat and lively composition. Meandering passages of flowing gated synth coalesce and sparkle in gleeful moments of realisation. Laid-back and also full of life, Brave New World fills the senses with an intelligent array of futuristic sounds.
