The sound of strumming guitars; the feel of soft, wet clay; the scent of fresh brewed coffee: this was Zella Day’s childhood. Secluded in the quaint mountain town of Pinetop, Arizona, Zella’s creativity flourished with the forest at her doorstep. High above Phoenix Valley, Pinetop holds a population of 7,000, and Zella's family-owned Mor Mor Coffee House was an only sanctuary for artists. Surrounding herself with local musicians, Zella was inspired to pick up the guitar at a young age. Before long, the blossoming chanteuse started performing sets including Bob Dylan and Elvis songs - selections inspired by her coffee house family. The native Arizonan had found a calling in music and used it as a form of self-realization, penning her experiences and discovering herself through the intricacies of song. She drew inspiration from the serene Arizona mountains and turned to Clint Eastwood, old Western films, and cowboy rebel culture to help shape the attitude behind her music. The result is a raw, organic sound unconfined by the boundaries of genre. It effortlessly floats between the tonalities of female frontier-maker Stevie Nicks and art pop songbird Lana Del Rey while invoking imagery painted by Old Arizona and a free-spirited perspective.

To date, Zella Day’s music has barely crossed paths with the outside world; however, her short series of self-released demos and collaborations caught fire throughout the indie community. One such supporter of her undeniable talent was the boutique music press outlet B3SCI. Having recently formed a singles record imprint, B3SCI was undoubtedly the natural home for the songwriter's first official offering to the world.

The upcoming two-track single leads with “Sweet Ophelia,” a blending of personal encounters in an eerie resemblance to that of Hamlet’s Ophelia. Crunching drum machines and menacing electronics juxtapose Zella’s airy croons as she sings about the sanctity of physical connection, powerfully portraying both the majesty and fragility of letting love consume you. The B-side, “1965,” takes a more straightforward approach, showcasing Zella’s strong voice atop soft, pattering drums and fluttering guitars. The lyrics tell a story about finding a genuine connection among a sea of inauthenticity. Moreover, the track celebrates its title - the year that a generation united despite a delusive society.

On April 7th, B3SCI Records will release 'Sweet Ophelia / 1965' on limited edition 7-inch clear vinyl. The tracks were brought to life at Los Angeles's WAX LTD. Studios with the production and mixing prowess of Xandy Barry and Wally Gagel. This debut collection showcases a young songstress’ visceral visions and liberated mentality, while foreshadowing the depth of a long career that's yet to come.

Common Kings- Alcoholic

Making a splash with your debut single is so, so important these days, and Sydney musician XIRA has absolutely knocked it out of the park with her sensational debut single Locks Changed. Locks Changed is a confident and tall-standing pop tune with a thick electronic backbone, uniting XIRA's playful yet commanding vocals - sorta reminiscent of Kira Puru on singles like Tension - with a clanging production heavy on percussive samplings and jagged, deep-pitched synth. It's crunchy and confident with a whole lot of sass, and considering it's just the start for the Sydney-based pop figure, it comes with a promising as hell future. Dive into the single below, and get to know her a little better before she takes over the national pop market one banger at a time. - Hayden Davies, Pilerats.

Locks Changed

Nicotine - Nicole Bullet

You got me caught up
I’m lost in your chaos again
Changing all the chemicals
That you put in my head
We can be friends now
We can be alone
We can be whatever 
Doesn’t matter where we go
We can spend a long time we can take it slow, yeh we can take it slow

And if it’s alright 
It doesn’t even matter 
If it’s okay 
She said to me 
And I’ll stay 
She said to me 
I’ll stay 

It takes more than promises 
And honesty that I just can’t see
So take from me 
This jealousy and bitterness 
that I just don’t need 
It takes more than promises 
And honesty that I just can’t see
So take from me 
This jealousy and bitterness 
that I just don’t need 

I’ve been over and under I’m losing myself
And I’m starting to wonder and question myself
But I don’t wanna fall too fast 
Feeling like I’m falling down
You were so closed to me Supposed to be 
More than just friends

And if it’s alright 
It doesn’t even matter 
If it’s okay 
She said to me 
And I’ll stay 
She said to me 
I’ll stay 

It takes more than promises 
And honesty that I just can’t see
So take from me 
This jealousy and bitterness that I just don’t need 
It takes more than promises 
And honesty that I just can’t see
So take from me 
This jealousy and bitterness that I just don’t need 

We can be friends now
We can be alone
We can be whatever doesn’t matter where we go
We can spend a long time we can take it slow, yeh we can take it slow

We can be friends now
We can be alone
We can be whatever doesn’t matter where we go
We can spend a long time we can take it slow, yeh we can take it slow

And if it’s alright 
It doesn’t even matter 
If it’s okay 
She said to me 
And I’ll stay 
She said to me 
I’ll stay
