LATE NITE / WONDERLAND

“Keepin’ It Kool” is the second single from Potatohead People’s upcoming “Eat Your Heart Out” album. Opening with swinging drums, a Bill Withers-esque guitar lick and an earworm of a hook sung by the PP, the song opens up into beautiful R&B vocals from Vancouver’s Kendra Dias. Lyrically the song touches on two common & paradoxical relationship angles–thinking someone is playing it cool, while that person is only playing it cool to see the same interest back. Lovely string arrangements, classic organ, and throwback musical change-ups turn thesong into pure magic. “Eat Your Heart Out” hits everywhere on May 10th.

I first wrote the chords of 'Mars' in 2016 and forgot about it. When I started working on the album with the theme of space, I found it again and this airy floating composition came back naturally. It embodies a line between the innocence of a quest and the tension of a future at stake. Kurtis Wells was the perfect match for this track and his lyrics and vocal interpretations absolutely captures this balance.  
You can hear a short extract of the original composition at the end of the video clip directed by Theo Asciak.

To celebrate Canadian R&B singer Ariel's signing with Mello Music Group, Ariel is releasing her first single, “Something Amazing,” since her debut EP, Symfonia, in 2023. Produced by Relyae, the track’s warm synths and laid-back guitar riffs call back to the sounds of 90s R&B. Laced with Ariel’s lush vocals, she looks to find the magic in the everyday moments of a relationship as she sings, “Forget about the right time / Cause’ baby this is our time / You’re feeling like my lifeline / Came in and let the sunshine in.”

“For ‘Something Amazing,’ I was listening to a lot of Lucy Pearl, SAULT, and Moonchild at the time. I wanted a super sunny and warm sound. Relyae nailed it. I always wanted to write a love song about the time after you fall in love, that calm, complete feeling you get when you really trust and connect with someone. When you can find magic in the mundane stuff it's pretty amazing.” - Ariel

Ariel crafts a sound that feels both familiar and new, like a lush and breezy confetti of imminent nostalgia. Her 2023 debut EP, Symfonia, has garnered over one million streams to date, airplay on BBC Radio 1, and a co-sign from music critic Anthony Fantano. Having just signed to Mello Music Group, Ariel has leaped into a new stage of her rising career that promises more music, starting with the release of her new single “Something Amazing.”

Highly Anticipated Soulful Ballad Unveiled in MXXWLL Collaboration: Who’s the One They Can’t Live Without?
This song may seem like a love song on the surface, but it’s actually a tribute to Nao Yoshioka’s deep admiration for “music,” which has saved her life many times. The lyrics passionately convey the peace that music brings to the soul and the urgent need for it to survive. Crafted by her for the upcoming album “Flow” scheduled for release in June, this message song vividly demonstrates her prowess as a singer-songwriter with its honest lyrics and soul-stirring melody. The finished track, symbolizing 21st-century G-funk endorsed by the likes of Snoop Dogg and DJ Jazzy Jeff, was further refined by the Sydney-based producer, MXXWLL. Collaborating with MXXWLL has always been a longtime dream for Nao, and after being moved by his first album “Beats Vol.1” nearly seven years ago, that dream has finally come true.
Captivated by MXXWLL’s funky, hip-hop-infused beats filled with creative playfulness, Nao approached him as a fan when he visited Japan after the pandemic. That single step set this project in motion. She passionately expresses, “When I listen to music, even familiar scenes appear differently, and it makes me feel that the world is beautiful even in difficult times. Music brings me peace and brightens my days.” Through this collaboration, MXXWLL was moved by the songs she presented, and with his exceptional production skills, he brought out their charm, elevating the music to an entirely new dimension. This work builds a new bridge between Australia and Japan through music and welcomes moments that spread around the world.

[Bio] A contemporary soul singer with a powerful voice and expressive skills refined in New York, this artist blends a modern taste distinct from a laid-back style yet deeply rooted in history. Born in Japan and having moved to New York alone, Nao’s encounter with soul music led to a pivotal moment where her heart synchronized with the Sam Cooke classic, inspiring her to create music that resonates deeply with people’s emotions. Despite being Japanese, she has a soulful voice reminiscent of Aretha Franklin and Whitney Houston, combined with a strength of character forged through life experiences as an outsider and overcoming adversities. Nao’s impressive live vocal performances have achieved over 3.4 million views on a now-viral YouTube video. She has performed solo at prestigious venues like Blue Note New York and London Jazz Cafe. She has participated in major festivals like the Java Jazz Festival in Asia and the Capital Jazz Fest in the USA, making a mark internationally. Nao is the first Japanese artist to reach the 32nd spot on the Billboard UAC chart. Her collaborations with veteran artists like John Batiste, Nathan East, Eric Roberson, and Mamas Gun have garnered strong support, and she’s also worked with rising artists like Devin Morrison and Blue Lab Beats. In 2024, the release of her highly anticipated 5th album and a world tour are eagerly awaited.
