Mad Morning deliver emotions with new rock anthem “Four Walls”

Mad Morning

With “Four Walls,” the Essex rock trio Mad Morning returns with a track that expands their emotional palette. This tune sets the stage for their debut album, “MAD MORNING,” set to drop on May 22 via Saviour Music. Their fourth single from their debut album, “Four Walls,” suggests that they’re more than ready to start telling deeper, outward-looking stories.

Much of their other work is written from challenges, but “Four Walls” was one of the few times they wrote from a place of a heartfelt message. Mad Morning crafts a song that feels both intimate and expansive, like a conversation reverberating in small rooms but traveling far beyond them.

It’s a production that allows the instruments to breathe and swell in ways that reflect the emotional heart of the song. The delivery balances openness and strength. The performance draws you in, reinforcing the idea that the song functions as a crutch rather than telling a story about the self.

With this release, Mad Morning not only solidifies their sound but also suggests a much grander artistic identity rooted in connection, development, and being upfront about what you’re feeling. “Four Walls” is a preview of what’s to come, indicating that the band will be a vital voice in modern rock.

“Sing-Along Songs (Album Version)” finds new energy for Arn-Identified Flying Objects and Alien Friends

Arn-Identified Flying Objects and Alien Friends

Arn-Identified Flying Objects And Alien Friends returns to “Sing-Along Songs (Album Version),” with an album version more consistent with the track’s original creative vision. The song came out in 2024 and featured an unusual mix of upbeat music and ironic lyrics that contextualized dark times.

This new version keeps that distinction but makes the arrangement a little spikier, punkier, and more playful. It blends indie pop and pop punk, fusing punk and power pop with a dash of folk rock. The more upbeat music works especially well against the darker outlook at the heart of the writing, creating a tension that keeps the track interesting rather than too serious.

The most obvious change is the intro, which now feels more in line with the original direction the song was meant to take. Co-producer David Myhr’s background vocals add some lift to the second and third choruses. Another key revision is the updated production.

The different parts of the track have more room to play off each other, with a stronger cohesive overall presentation and a more consistent, clear mix from beginning to end. “Sing-Along Songs (Album Version)” feels like a deliberate refinement, and Arn-Identified Flying Objects and Alien Friends take the new version and grind the song’s contrasting moods for a more polished, playful take on an already upbeat tune.

TaniA Kyllikki creates a powerful message of equality through “HUMAN”

TaniA Kyllikki

You might not think a Facebook post could turn into a song, but for TaniA Kyllikki, “HUMAN” is a creative process that turns a moment of frustration into a thoughtful musical statement. This house/techno track explores race, difference, judgment, equality, compassion, and the labels people put on each other. Its artistic direction leans toward empathy, humility, love, and the shared humanity beneath those differences, rather than division.

The song was inspired by Kyllikki’s reaction to the hostility she saw online toward people of different races, cultures, and backgrounds. Kyllikki and her husband, producer and multi-instrumentalist Rynellton (Garry D. Hairston), chose music to express compassion and provoke thought, rather than meet hostility with more of the same.

Kyllikki gives a personal songwriting perspective, and producer/multi-instrumentalist Rynellton helps to translate the original words into a techno-house setting. “HUMAN” strikes a cool creative balance, blending dance-oriented genres with a serious topic and letting its message fit into a modern electronic structure rather than a simple statement.

This song began as words on the net, became Kyllikki, and turned into lyrics that had to be set to music. “HUMAN” is a testimony to TaniA Kyllikki’s ability to take an unsettling observation and turn it into a creative expression of connection. That defining quality is the choice to respond to division with music, a release that is both a reflection of its origins and a continuation of the artist’s expressive path.
