Lyrics: 

See me as your enemy, or see me as your friend
It is 19 months since I was there, and held you in my hand
It is 18 since I told you, and you took away my name

Now when you saw me, you turned away your head
You won't forgive me, and I will understand
Now and then

Used to be your future, now you see me as your end
When you're hiding, we're colliding
Better be, and stop pretend
I was silent, you were blind
Better leave those fears behind

If you're still bleeding, see me as a friend
You won't believe me
And I will understand
Now and then
Now and then

You won't believe me
Won't be an end
I know you're done, ignored and gone, but I'm around
If you see light in fighting me, you'll be your enemy

And still today, you will not pretend
You won't believe me
And I will understand
Now and then

Now & Then

“Riding on the wave of a successful single release, with support from Too Future, Run The Trap, IndieFeed, and us here at EarMilk, west coast singer-songwriter Chase McBride releases his new full-length album, “Cold Water”. The collection of eight songs, written during a transitional creative period, reveal a fresh, more distilled version of McBride’s previous folk sound.” - EarMilk

The oldest of the three
You said that the first time you spoke to me
You always had to lead
You seem to have everything you need

The days, they move easy
The waves, they don't mean as much to me as I used to believe
The days, they move easy
It occurs, when you are here the waves they wash away from me

To be honest
I could see
It in your eyes
When you kissed me tangerine
If all this
Is a dream
I wouldn't mind us
Drifting to sleep

The days, they move easy
The waves, they don't mean as much to me as I used to believe
The days, they move easy
It occurs, when you are here the waves they wash away from me

Cold Water

Days Move Easy

LYRICS:
Hearts like leaves they float along
Where oh where do they belong
Hearts like leaves they float around
Will they ever find the ground?

Tired of winds that change my ways
Won't you give our hearts some weight
Won't you give our hearts some weight
So we fall in the right places

Hearts like leaves they're to and fro
Hard to know where they will go
Aren't you tired of floating on
Floating til your time is gone

Tired of winds that change my ways
Won't you give our hearts some weight
Won't you give our hearts some weight
So we fall in the right places

When the winds have changed my ways
Won't you give our hearts some weight
Won't you give our hearts some weight
So we fall in the right places

Max Herman - Forever

Additional production and mixdown by DJ Rocca

Legendary Adriatic DJ and producer Verdo doesn't release often, but when he does you need to listen. He always has one foot on the dancefloor, while the other makes a leap into outer space.

Resident at the infamous Gratis Club in Senigallia, a skilled musician who brings virtuoso playing and someone with his own immediately identifiable sound, Verdo is a real hidden treasure. The Italian has previously released on Danny Was A Drag King and also this label back in 2017, and mixes up anything from afro to acid, disco to downtempo in his grooves.

'Symmetry' kicks off in strident fashion, with throwback piano chords lighting up the airwaves as stomping drums make you move. It's the sound of an all out celebration of the sort we have all been missing recently. 'Babbions' strikes a more tender note, with warm chords rising up through the cosmic arps and long legged drums. It's a twinkling track that glows bright and lifts your spirits no end.

'Procida' layers up more retro-future chords with bubbling melodies and star-gazing pads that will soundtrack sunsets by the sea in perfect fashion. "Second Trip' is a thoughtful track that sinks you into warm grooves, with shimmering keys that bring the romance. This one also comes as a bonus beatless version for lush ambient escapism and sentimental moments.

Verdo's back, and back in style.

Verdo - Second Trip (Senigallia Sunrise Beatless Mix)

Due out on limited CD on July 24th

DR-69 : PORYA HATAMI - Kani + Remixes (incl. Darren McClure, Purl, Arovane, Tomotsugu Nakamura, Sven Laux)

Originally released in 2013 on the Inner Ocean label, Porya Hatami’s “Kani” was a four track EP showcasing his intimate take on modern ambient music. The Iranian artist has issued a large number of albums that imbue pastoral ambient with subtle field recordings and melodies. The melodic aspect of Hatami’s work took centre stage in this release, and shone bright across the four pieces.

So now, seven years later, “Kani” is being given the reissue that it deserves, and will delight those listeners new to it, and those who are rediscovering it again. Besides the original four tracks, there are an additional five remixes by artists working in a similar orbit to Hatami, and some who have collaborated directly with him in the past.

These reworks cover plenty of ground, reimagining the source material into new shapes. Some remixes extend the foggy soundscapes and conjure delicate melodic plucks. Others add mellow pulses that infer rhythm under the washes of sound, while others take these rhythmic ideas much further.

Porya Hatami - Restless (Sven Laux Interpretation)

Something chilled and ambient going back into a Vangelis inspired style. Has a feeling perhaps of flying over vast landscapes.

The Paper Kites - Bloom (Bonus Track)

Gavyn Bailey is a singer and songwriter known for his quirky, commercial style, and deep soul mentality, with a writing maturity well beyond his young age. He’s been music-minded ever since the age of three, while recovering from a kidney transplant, he taught himself many instruments and worked on honing his love for songwriting - an outlet that has gained global attention. He used his experience as an avenue to inspire others going through similar situations, whatever that may be, and is currently an ambassador for Children’s Hospital Of Orange County (CHOC) Mental Heath Initiative, aiding both children and adults through music and dialog.

In 2013, Gavyn released his debut EP “Sickly in Love” which landed #4 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter charts. That same year he was nominated for an OC Music Award for Best Youth Artist as well as LA Music Awards for Best Album and Male Singer/Songwriter of the year. In 2014 he joined a Scandinavian tour with the popular former Danish band, Dúné. The following year, his song “All Growed’ Up” was placed in the Canadian MTV television series, Degrassi (see gallery for video).

Gavyn has performed packed venues such as The Dolby Theater, The Lincoln Center in New York City, The House of Blues, The Roxy, and more. He has performed along side Carole King, Aloe Blacc, BJ Thomas, and Alicia Keys during his involvement in Paul Newman’s SeriousFun Camps Charity Galas.

Since 2016, Gavyn put his focus into songwriting for himself as well as other artists when he signed a publishing deal with Bump Into Genius and Warner/Chappell Music. He has since collaborated with artists including Ray Dalton, Tim Schou, Xenia (“The Voice”), Karen Dezelle, MOODY, Romeo Blanco, Soren Bryce, Dylan Jordan, Zhavia, and SVEA, among others, and has accumulated a diverse song catalogue with over 3 million streams and counting for his work as a co-writer. His song “Novocaine” by Tim Schou was awarded Grand Prize at the IAMA in 2018 (International Acoustic Music Awards.)

Gavyn began releasing singles for his new project in June 2019. The three singles released since, “No Space” , “Numb Me, Bad” and “Grass Is Never Greener” accumulated over 100,000 streams and counting. He is also actively cowriting and recently secured a placement on Freeform’s ​Party of Five​ with artist, Xenia for her song “Love You Give Away”. In December 2019, Gavyn was featured on the “People Making a Difference” segment on CBS News. 

In March of 2020, a song co-written by Gavyn “Ville ønske jeg havde kendt dig” placed 3rd at the Dansk Melodi Grand Prix in Copenhagen, Denmark. Gavyn took part in the initial creation of the song before it was translated to Danish.
