THe LYONZ release brand new EP- ‘Ecstasy’ / ‘Mystery Of Mr. E’
THe LYONZ have been causing a stir as of late with a series of thought-provoking cosmic hip hop EP releases. Having emerged as something strikingly different with a performance at Montreal’s International Jazz Festival, Anthony Salvo and Terrell McLeod Richardson who form the group recently featured on national TV in Canada as well as in last month’s DJ Mag. Now, THe LYONZ present possibly their best EP release to date by way of the joint pairing of ‘Ecstasy’ and ‘Mystery of Mr. E’.
First EP track ‘Ecstasy’ is a shimmering intoxicating piece of electronic music leaning on a backbone of powerful raps. The blur of experimental sounds and lyrics depict being introduced to nightlife at a young age and falling in love with a woman from the scene. Then comes ‘Mystery of Mr. E’, which is a look inside the secret life of a mystery man. The track’s elusive free flowing moods are underpinned by unpredictable snappy beats and heavy bass. Who is Mr. E? perhaps he is you, perhaps he is me? perhaps he is all of us leading double lives?
Both tracks are trippy ever-changing sculptures, hypnotic audio works of art that, like film scenes, envisage the past, present and future in collections of emotions, snapshots of real life and dreams of worlds far away. The music just oozes beauty and raw feelings with organic authenticity and natural attitude. If THe LYONZ are not on your radar yet with this latest two-pronged attack of superb tracks, then they really should be!

Leyla Romanova finds strength in silence on new release “Self-Control”
Leyla Romanova‘s new single, “Self-Control,” is a powerful emotional release that feels more like a manifesto for surviving modern chaos than a song. In a world of opinions, urgency, and emotional exhaustion, Romanova offers a track based on one radical idea: not reacting.
“Self-Control” immediately creates tension and clarity. The drums keep everything together with discipline and purpose. As the textured instrumentals expand like waves of thought through a crowded mind, the bass anchors the listener emotionally.
The contrast between outside noise and inside stillness makes the song compelling. Romanova’s work captures the feeling of being overwhelmed by pressure, opinions, and distractions while silently retaining personal peace. There are no major uprisings. But restraint is power. The song knows energy conservation is a survival strategy.

J’mall expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own on “Unattainable”
J’mall’s latest single, “Unattainable,” expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own. The song explores the emotional void caused by constant comparison rather than motivation.
“Unattainable” is about realizing that no matter how hard one works to meet others’ expectations, the reward will never be satisfying. J’mall explores the stress of “keeping up with the Joneses” and the exhaustion of comparing yourself to standards that weren’t meant for you.
The song’s honesty resonates, the message doesn’t feel preachy or polished. It feels personal, like J’mall is sharing life lessons. The record’s quiet strength is its embrace of individuality and personal responsibility without pretending it’s easy.
