Alfa & Emmavie - Fly Away

This album introduces a new twenty-two year old artist named Mara Hruby from Oakland, CA. She arrived on the scene at the start of 2010, playing shows throughout the Bay Area, and is releasing her debut EP, From Her Eyes. Mara has worked on this album for the past nine months; she has applied her multi-talented dedication to recording, arranging, and engineering her own work. She has performed on stage, dancing and backing other artists in the Bay Area; unconsciously preparing herself for this path. She has chosen to speak through music in order to connect with those of us who love music. 

These seven tracks represent the genesis of the view “From Mara’s Eyes” of the various works of her favorite male artists. Each song is connected to a memory experience in Mara’s young life. The beauty and elegance of Van Hunt’s “Character,” Bob Marley’s love of Jah, Mos Def’s soulful poetry, André “3000” Benjamin’s “Take Off Your Cool,” as well as D’Angelo’s “Send It On” – are all examples of art forms from today’s exceptional musicians. 

Send it On

Taking the edge off our post Bank Holiday blues is London based, soulful singer/songwriter Ego Ella May. Heavily tipped by the likes of CD-R Projects and Boiler Room as one of London's hottest properties, her experimental collaborations have seen her recently work with Soulection regular IAMNOBODI. Combining with @ItsMiniD to create the moniker @MDMay, Ella May has crafted a rework of the Common & Mary J Blige smooth classic, Come Close. Download and enjoy.

“Mirrors / Tristesse” is a summer album about love, guilt, freedom and the versions of ourselves we try to outrun. Set against the heat of the Mediterranean coast, these twelve songs move through the first sparks of desire, the jealousy and mischief that follow, the quiet tragedies we don’t see until they’re already behind us, and the melancholy that becomes a permanent companion.

Built from a fusion of French chanson, chamber-folk and intimate indie storytelling, the album draws on the emotional architecture of Mirrors — self-interrogation, memory, the stories we perform — and carries it into the sun-drenched world of Bonjour Tristesse.

From the villa above the sea to the Parisian atelier, from the white suit on stage to the final acceptance of tristesse itself, these songs follow the arc of a summer that begins like a lie and ends like a lesson you never stop learning.

A coastal dream darkened by consequence — a sister album to Mirrors, and a chapter in its shadow.

He Symbolises Freedom

he was like..
6'5".
big lips & brown eyes.
his mind reminds me of 
the sunrise.
it got brighter by the minute.
I'm too caught up to be committed,
now I'm feeling different.
'cause I just wanna race to you.
with skates on.
got me praying you can stay long.
I remember when you first hit my peripheral,
shoulda known it would hit me, yo.

'cause I was like..
oh my.
wide-eyed & mesmerized,
and I don't ever really get like that.
tried to hold it, tried to reel that back,
but the feelings' too..
strong for me to kill em.
& imma need some space from you.
gotta go & make some art for you.
aww shit, you an artist too?
damn.
it's funny what the heart'll do.

I just wanna know...
do you think of me when you're in the studio?
do you think of me when..
I just wanna know..
do you think of me when you're in the studio?
when you're in the studio, yeah.

'cause when I'm in this booth,
all I see is you.
I'm in my thoughts,
all I think is you.
wondering if we speak the same language,
wondering if you vibrate on my wavelength.
but we need to stick to being focused.
love is the realest hocus pocus.
i ain't got time,
you ain't got time, no.
later we'll see how it go.

I just wanna know...
do you think of me when you're in the studio?
do you think of me when..
I just wanna know..
do you think of me when you're in the studio?
when you're in the studio, yeah.

do you think of me when making art?
have I carved my name deep on your heart, boy?
do you think of me when...
when it's late night and you're up grinding?
when you're in the studio, yeah.

20-year-old Atu comes to us from Ann Arbor, Michigan courtesy of Sango. When we first heard Atu's music, we were blown away with his clear 90's r&b influences and diverse future sound. The Malawian producer delicately fuses bass and soul, adding his signature, elegant vocal sampling to the mix. He incorporates unique time signatures and plays nicely with the silence, consistently leaving you wanting more. Atu is poised today to deliver the sound of tomorrow through his progressive aural direction.
