Premiere: Kitt Wakeley Unveils 2nd Collaboration With Joe Satriani Recorded At Abbey Road Studios – “Forgive Me”

Songwriter-composer Kitt Wakeley announces the release of his latest composition, “Forgive Me,” featuring Joe Satriani. Off his upcoming album Symphony of Sinners and Saints, this is the second single featuring Joe Satriani and the third from the album, following-up on “Conflicted,” and “Sinners And Saints.” The album was  recorded at Abbey Roads Studios with the participation of the London Philharmonic and London Voices. Apart from Joe Satriani, Symphony of Sinners and Saints will include featured artists Andy Timmons, Paige Harwell, Brent Berry and Ryan Miller. 

“Forgive Me” is a profound composition that transports the listener into Wakeley’s orchestral rock universe, distilling  an ethereal and solemn feel throughout, while beautifully translating into sounds the coexistence of beauty and tragedy. With complex feelings arising when life’s dichotomy is finally transcended, Kitt Wakeley builds on his past successes as one of the first artists to mesh rock music with massive orchestras and choirs, initiating a movement that keeps gaining momentum with each year passing. 

He shares, “It was interesting to see the yin and yang of two genre’s colliding. More interesting was performing live. The prim and proper orchestral players interacting with the rock musicians was a sociological case study. Everyone got along great and had an appreciation for what the others did. That’s where I initially came up with the concept of “Sinners and Saints”. Eventually, it made sense to create the vernacular “Symphony of Sinners and Saints”.

 

After topping the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales with “Conflicted” featuring Joe Satriani, the first song released from the upcoming album, Kitt Wakeley is sure to break some more records with “Forgive Me.” Listeners will have to be patient to hear Satriani’s exceptional solo, imagined by Wakeley to act as the climatic finish of the composition.

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

Mamas Gun

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

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.
