Manchester-based keyboardist and producer Matt Wilde continues his strong start to 2022 with his second single of the year ‘Inner Peace’ which sees him teaming up with multi-instrumentalist and producer, Natty Reeves.

Throughout the track Natty’s Spanish guitar and Matt’s piano effortlessly interweave to create the harmonic richness of the track, bringing a new outlook to jazz collaboration. As the track develops, the direction of the music changes through raw improvisations from Natty, and then Matt, with synth textures interplaying to create a foundation for the rest of the track to shine.

Inner Peace

Following support from the likes of Jamie Cullum (BBCR2), Jazz FM & more, Manchester keyboardist, composer and producer Matt Wilde steps up with his debut physical release, having spent much of his early years laying the foundations of his musical development through workshops at Band on the Wall.

A truly feel-good slice of musical goodness centred around Matt’s lyrical, virtuosic and jazz-leaning keys, ‘Every Story / Pivot’ delivers wondrous blends of hip-hop and jazz elements.

Both Every Story and Pivot depict a reflection. As put by Matt, “Everyone has their own story; they have something unique to share with the world which encapsulates the highs and lows of their individual lives, and that can resonate with other human beings. By taking the time to listen to every story from different perspectives, we can hear voices that are unheard and undervalued.”

On Pivot, Matt says, “Our lives pivot between different perspectives and moments that can change the direction we’re travelling in. Unexpected shifts of reality and emotion. Pivot depicts the contrast between moments of stillness and moments of energy”

‘Every Story / Pivot’ is the fourth release from Manchester institution Band on the Wall’s 7” vinyl series on their new label, created to support Manchester’s emerging artists.

‘Insomnia’ is the third solo album by Italian jazz beat maestro Koralle for Melting Pot Music. Without exaggeration, it can be described as the most mature and advanced piece of work by the beatmaker and producer from Bologna. On ‘Insomnia’, Koralle invites some of his favourite artists and musical peers to collaborate and exchange sounds and ideas, beats, melodies, and lyrics. The guest list includes fellow producers & musicians FloFilz, Pachakuti, Figub Brazlevic, Kuranes, Phoniks and Brous One as well as rappers and singers Kid Abstrakt, KeepVibeNear, Ryshon Jones.

Koralle produced most of the songs during long nights while struggling with insomnia. Insomnia is a common sleep disorder that can make it hard to fall asleep, hard to stay asleep, or cause you to wake up too early and not be able to get back to sleep. Insomnia can sap not only your energy level and mood but also your health, work performance and quality of life. Luckily the quality of sleep has improved for Koralle since then. 

Insomnia will be available on LP and digital. The album and singles artworks have been created by Italian painter Giulia Dall'ara.
