Kevin Erlicher aka Loverground is back with a second seductive EP My Love Is True whose eponymous track is featuring the young producer bb.sway. The two musicians will make you flutter with lightness to the rhythm of the overpowering synthesizer notes. Their airy vocals are mixed with a house melody and thus, they deliver to their listeners a feathery track that has one goal: make love great again﻿.

Den Dala’s new single “Carefree” is a real feel good groover song. It takes you to a place where you always have your sharpest glasses on and every movement is in unison with the beat. How could it be else, Carefree has everything a positive mind needs: a simple and catchy bassline, followed by melodic guitars, and topped off with a stunning synthesizer solo. Playing Ping Pong, jamming, drinking, and let your soul dangle is what inspired Den Dala to write this song. It developed in a time when there wasn’t much more to do anyways. This feeling of lightness and not caring too much about things is the essence of this mellow instrumental track.

#1 Dads (formerly Dads) is the solo moniker of Tom Iansek, the front man for acclaimed alt-pop band Big Scary. The project is a way for Iansek to remain creative between Big Scary album cycles and touring, and to find a place for songs that would remain homeless outside of his more well-known outfit.

About Face has been built over the past two years. Songs about mundanity, songs about desire, songs about loss… themes sung about for centuries, and delivered in a restrained and humble manner on this new LP.
The most notable development from 2011’s Man Of Leisure is a new foray into collaboration, a taste for which Iansek developed while working with external musicians on Big Scary's Not Art, and skill which he honed through his work as a producer for other artists. In his words, co-writing was “a way to lighten the burden of writing/recording/mixing/producing an album by myself”. Indeed, once the riffs for So Soldier and Return To were written, Iansek’s mind took him to Ainslie Wills’ and Tom Snowden’s voices respectively, rather than his own.
