ECR Music Group is thrilled to unleash MILES EAST’s long-awaited new album, “Between Lightning and Thunder.” The album is expected to significantly impact the indie music scene following the successful launch of three lead-up singles, which have already amassed numerous streams and secured a place on Apple Music’s “New In Rock” editorial playlist.

Midway, “It’s Ours To Lose” and “Lucky To Be Here Tonight” further deepen the listener’s emotional engagement, demonstrating MILES EAST’s unparalleled ability to blend classic acoustic and soul with introspective allure.
The penultimate track, “Song Of Hope,” emerges as a guiding light, encouraging listeners to embrace the possibility of a brighter future. Meanwhile, the finale, “All I Need,” concludes with a quiet yet profound sense of redemptive simplicity that lingers long after the last note fades. Each song is meticulously crafted with attention to detail, navigating the album’s classic acoustic and soul soundscape with a tranquil, reflective optimism that embodies resilient hearts traversing life’s darkest storms.
“Between Lightning and Thunder” is essential listening for anyone seeking an introspective, timeless, and unforgettable musical adventure. This album offers an unmissable opportunity to experience MILES EAST’s extraordinary talent, artistic vision, and passion for expression. It will become a cherished addition to worldwide playlists, resonating deeply with long-time fans and new audiences. .

Kalpee Honors Heritage and Heart on His Emotion-Rich New EP Dougla Boi
Kalpee is back with Dougla Boi, a beautiful new EP that is both personal and powerful. It gives listeners a close look at the layers of identity, heritage, and emotion that make him who he is. The Trinidad and Tobago artist is confident in his own space, which is rooted in New Calypso and polished with hints of dancehall, R&B, and afrobeats. In this space, genre bends, but emotion leads.
Named after the Trinidadian word for someone of mixed African and Indian heritage, Dougla Boi is honest, proud, and warm about the complexities of culture. Kalpee opens a window into the dualities that define him across six tracks, turning personal truth into universal resonance. The EP is just under 19 minutes long, but every second is carefully planned to take listeners on a journey through courage, joy, healing, and the quiet strength that comes from accepting all parts of yourself.
The first single, “Under,” stands out right away for its calming yet emotionally charged experience. Kalpee’s voice flows over a beat that sounds both new and old, fitting the EP’s theme of bringing cultures together. It’s one of the best examples of how he can mix soft and hard sounds, which is what makes his New Calypso sound so unique.
“Everybody,” which features Full Blown, is another excellent song that has already done very well. It has a happy vibe and an infectious bounce, making it one of the EP’s most replayable songs. “Everybody” captures the spirit of community and shared experience, which is what Kalpee means when he says that identity is not a box but a rhythm.
