JESSICA WILDE drops sensational ‘Heads In The Roses’ visual

London’s Jessica Wilde is proving one of the UK’s hottest new talents right now, with a string of sizzling singles that have lit up BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, and gained serious press praise from the likes of Complex, Clash, The Independent, and many more. Her eager Instagram following has also been expanding rapidly and lapping up Wilde’s regular ‘PxSSY PWR’ playlists and IG Live series, with which she showcases her favorite female artists as her comedic alter-ego; ‘Ya gurl Charlene’.

Wilde’s style ranges from chilled and thoughtful spoken word gems to bouncy in-your-face bangers that are woven with her gritty real-life experiences and poetic observations. The combination of her candid hazy diary entry interludes and huge soaring pop-soul choruses packs a real and lasting musical punch. New cut ‘Heads in The Roses’ maybe Wilde’s strongest single to date as she approaches the release of her debut album ‘Sober, Wasted, Wasted, Sober on 11^th March 2022. The highly anticipated album charts Wilde’s journey from addiction and toxic relationships to self-empowerment and living sober.

‘Heads in The Roses’ is a dark and meaningful song about the escapism of drug misuse represented in a gorgeous bass-loaded resplendent soulful production. It’s about burying your head in the roses and not facing up to the reality of addiction, framed in catchy nu-soul pop chic. About the track, Jess explains, “I found love in this escapism…I was fully caught up in the fantasy and wanted that captured in the video which re-enacts a true romance story between me and another girl.”

Following a hugely successful expansion into a real-life live show last year, Jessica Wilde’s PxSSY PWR night will return to the Brixton Hootananny stage on 7^th April for the launch of her debut album, presented by her pink wigged, biro smoking alters ego ‘Ya gurl Charlene’! If the first night is anything to go by, this will not be an event to miss! Jessica Wilde is signed to Sony ATV and has collaborated with artists including Rudimental, Emeli Sande, Tough Love, Kizzo, and renowned K Pop Label SM Entertainment.

Mamas Gun and Brian Jackson shines light on the truth on latest release “DIG!”

Mamas Gun makes a strong comeback with their new single “DIG!.” The track sounds more like a strong statement of intent than just a release. The UK band is known for its smooth blend of blue-eyed soul and traditional black music. They show once again that they can make music that sounds both thoughtful and very new, while still being real, emotional, and sophisticated.

“DIG!” was recorded directly onto analogue tape, and every note has warmth, grit, and soul. The production choice gives the music a rich, natural sound that complements the band’s unique groove. It is a piece of music that makes people slow down, really listen, and experience it rather than hear it.

Adding famous collaborator Brian Jackson, whose vocals, keyboard, and flute give the song a timeless elegance, adds even more depth and magic. Jackson is known for working with artists such as Stevie Wonder, Gil Scott-Heron, Roy Ayers, and Earth, Wind & Fire. His addition makes the song something truly special. His reunion with Andy Platts, the lead singer of Mamas Gun, almost twenty years after they first worked together creatively in New York, gives “DIG!” a very personal touch that can be felt throughout. “DIG!” sets a strong mood based on connection, art, and essence. Mamas Gun not only goes back to their roots but also makes them stronger. This song is heartfelt, timeless, and completely captivating.

Bromsen crafts a suspension between attachment and release in new single “Concendrain”

Bromsen’s latest release, “Concendrain,” is very immersive and lives in the space between control and disintegration. The song smoothly shifts from focused to tired, from connected to free, and captures a complex emotional balance that is both personal and universal.

“Concendrain” starts slowly and carefully, the structure has layers that change over time, so each part can come out on its own without any stress or hurry. As time goes on, electronic textures begin to emerge, giving the music a mood that eventually turns into rock-infused energy. These different sounds don’t clash, they work together to create a track that is alive, fluid, and always changing.

The guitar, voice, and rhythm should all work together on the song. These parts don’t compete for attention; instead, they work together to make a smooth flow that pulls the listener into the song’s emotional depth. The arrangement features vocals that complement complex guitar lines and a steady beat that keeps everything in line.

“Concendrain” is really interesting because it has two sides. The track is about the fight in your head between giving up and pushing through, and between staying focused and giving in to tiredness. Bromsen and Reatsch work together to make something that looks natural and well-made. “Concendrain” doesn’t try to be cool or follow trends. Instead, it gives you a slow experience that you should really pay attention to. “Concendrain” is a powerful and thought-provoking work that sticks with you long after the last note has faded away. It stands out because its structure changes, its atmosphere is rich, and its emotions are strong.
