This bounce ... is everthing. Modern funk

The funk in this and your music... I can’t believe you aren’t more known! Love the switch up on feels through out the song 🔥

that's very slick the high notes are the business 

Lyrics

V1:
What a perfect time to pay attention to the flowers
And how they dance for no one but the light,
and grow on their own time,
don’t that just sound nice.

Cause I don’t wanna waste away when
my spirits called to more than concrete spaces.
And I hear Mother Nature calling me back home when I need serenity
and a space to breath

Hook:
So I keep on running,
Running back to the water.
Running,
Running back to the water.

V2:
Oh sometimes I lose my focus,
and I forget where I’m going
man it gets dark sometimes, but it don’t feel like night
When theres no stars up in the sky,
and unfamiliar voices under city lights.

I don’t wanna fade away when
my soul is made for more than expectations.
And I hear Mother Nature calling me back home when I need serenity
and a space to breath

Hook:
So I keep on running,
Running back to the water.
Running,
Running back to the water.

"This is the first single from my upcoming EP 'TIDES'. I grew up in Nova Scotia, a small province on the east coast of Canada, where they have the highest tides in the world. The tides come in and out roughly twice a day and the waters travel 280 km (174 miles) of shoreline to the head of the Bay where, in the Minas Basin, the height of the tide can reach 16 meters (53ft).

I grew up a country girl, in rural Canada. All of my friend’s families were farmers, so I was running around in chicken barns, pork farms, cow farms and also spent a lot of time working in apple orchards and vineyards. As a kid growing up, there was such much to learn from nature. There are four very distinct seasons, that all have lessons to teach and incredible beauty to offer, but one thing that is constant is the tide. Nova Scotia has the highest tides in the world. They come in and out roughly twice a day and the waters travel 280 km (174 miles) and can reach 16 meters (53ft) in height. It’s a magical thing to look out at the ocean at high tide, and then watch it disappear until its as if there was no ocean there to begin with. It was just the norm for me as a kid. As I grew into my 20’s and moved further away from home, spent more time in cities I became more and more disconnected from nature, and possibly from myself, which I suppose is what you’re meant to do in your 20’s. But how ironic that we often need to lose the “idea of ourself” to find out the essence of who we really are and often it’s not that far away from where we began. I guess that’s the full circle we see often in life. Funny enough for me, it wasn’t until I moved to London, UK that I fully began to settle into myself, all while constantly developing, discovering and growing.

This project is kinda my ode to my home, Nova Scotia. It’s about my own self discovery and experiences at this point in my life. It’s very introspective and personal. I touch a lot on nature themes, life & death, family. Water is me telling myself to slow down. “What a perfect time to pay attention to the flowers”. Be more in tune with myself, with nature, with the universe. To focus on what’s important and knowing when to take a break and reconnect with mother nature. Every time I fall a bit too far off track, it’s like nature or “home” is calling me back to re-set."

The Distance

CAN'T BELIEVE YOU WANT TO MAKE A MESS OUT OF ME
BUT WHEN I HIT YOU UP AND TRY TO MAKE AMENDS YOU RESIST

WHEN I SEE YOU ON THE STREET
YOU DON'T EVEN COME AND SPEAK
NO WAY, NO WAY
CATCH THE PACE KNOW YOUR PLACE

HIT MY PHONE CHECK EXPLORE
CATCHING FEELINGS I CANT HELP IT
I KNOW YOU'LL SEE, TRYNA HOLD

(CHORUS)
IF FLOWERS ARE RED THEN WHY'D THEY TURNED BLUE
I GAVE YOU THE SKY, JUMPED OVER THE MOON
(X2)

(VERSE 2)
GOT ME CRYING ALL NIGHT
ACTING LIKE IT AIN'T FOR THE BETTER BABE
IF I DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO COPE I COULD LOVE YOU LIKE YOU WANT ME TO
BUT YOU KNOW IT'S COOL
AND I SEE YOU POPPING IN NOLA
GUESS IT'S REAL GOOD FOR YA, BUT WHO AM I TO HOLD YA
GOTTA LET IT SLIDE
I COULD NOT REPLACE YOU BUT WHO ON MY ARM THAT COULD HOLD ME
YEAH
GOTTA LET US FLY

(CHORUS)

After a successful Kickstarter campaign, Iman Europe releases her debut album, Nami. Nami is Iman's name backwards; a nickname given to her as a child. Ironically enough, Nami also means "wave" in Japanese and "us" in Polish, which plays a part in the thematic direction of the album. In this Los Angeles love story, Iman showcases her sonic versatility and immaculate writing skills, while keeping listeners engaged from start to finish. According to Iman Europe, she "made an album, album", taking the time to skillfully craft a storyline that many listeners can follow and relate to. "This is a story of falling in and out of love with someone, ultimately to find that love within yourself," she says. Tapping into her Creative Writing Bachelor's Degree, Iman also wrote an affirmation book titled Nami Says to accompany the album.

Eternal Light REMIX

It’s impossible not to become infatuated with Gavin Turek. A disco queen for the modern era, Gavin Turek makes dance music that trades escapism for alchemy, transforming heartbreak and hurt into moments of absolute glory. Since first breaking through with her 2017 EP Good Look For You (hailed by Stereogum as “Studio 54-core for the 21st century”), the L.A.-born artist has matched her magnetic presence and mesmerizing vocals with songwriting that speaks an unguarded truth about her inner life—all while dazzling audiences across the globe with her deeply communal and party-like live show. For the latest chapter in a vibrant career that’s included collaborating with such eclectic artists as TOKiMONSTA and Mayer Hawthorne, touring with the likes of Hayley Kiyoko, and earning lavish acclaim from leading outlets like Rolling Stone, Vogue, NPR, and Spin, Gavin is now gearing up for the release of Diva of the People, her highly anticipated sophomore album and most visionary work to date. 
Raised on a melting pot of genres that still informs her sound today (classic soul and R&B, disco, ’70s funk, ’80s pop), Gavin grew up in a musical household and first started creating her own songs at age six. An accomplished dancer who incorporates plenty of free-flowing choreography into her live show (and who also DJs disco and house), Gavin lived abroad in India and Africa as part of her extensive dance training, but eventually returned to her lifelong passion for music. As she immersed herself in refining her vision, she put out Good Look For You via her own label Madame Gold Records, shared a series of one-off singles (including 2019’s “2AM” and its Lena Waithe-produced video), then made her full-length debut with the high-concept and boldly experimental Madame Gold (a critically lauded album produced by Childish Gambino collaborator Chris Hartz). With its title taken from a nickname bestowed on Gavin by a friend, Diva of the People wholly reflects the force-of-nature personality and intense sensitivity of an artist who identifies as “sonically nostalgic but emotionally available.” All throughout the album, Gavin brings the pure simplicity of timeless pop and groove-driven sound of disco to songs examining everything from the madness of technology addiction to the frustrations of dating in a culture bent on perfectibility. The result: an emotionally raw but wildly radiant body of work that leans into disco’s legacy as a conduit for empowerment, ultimately delivering all the joyful catharsis we need right now.
