HonkMagazine

Ty Stonehawker’s new single, “While You Are Gone,” showcases his talent as a singer-songwriter with a heartfelt and moving song that highlights his place among country music’s true storytellers. This track is featured on his debut solo album, “Gamblin Man,” and reflects themes of redemption and personal growth.

In “While You Are Gone,” Ty combines powerful storytelling with the distinctive sounds of pedal steel guitar and a steady bass rhythm. The result is a musical blend that feels timeless and new, combining elements of traditional country with a bit of rock.

Three years ago, he faced serious challenges, struggling with addiction and the issues that came with it. However, meeting a famous music producer changed his life in one important way. He needed to get sober, which he did, and now, with a renewed sense of purpose and determination, he is sharing his hard-earned experiences through his music.

The song captures feelings of loss, yearning, and the lessons learned from past mistakes. With its heartfelt honesty and deep emotion, “While You Are Gone” is a powerful testament to an artist who has faced tough times and emerged stronger than before.

Album Review

Tangent return with “Disclosure,” a dark electronic journey through truth and uncertainty [album]

Tangent

Dutch electronic duo Tangent returns after a 3-year hiatus with “Disclosure,” their 7th album, released today via n5MD. The album draws on ambient, electronic, and IDM sounds, revisiting the shadowy, dystopian atmosphere that has long defined the duo’s musical identity.

“Disclosure” references these themes: things long hidden, inner conflict, doubt, and facing what’s been kept out of sight for a long time, after a hard time and a long hiatus. Tangent creates a world where darkness and hope can live together across seven tracks.

The opening title track, “Disclosure,” sets the tone, tracing the slow arrival of uncomfortable truths. At its heart, the idea moves from creepy tension to a darker, heavier reality, with a growing sense of discomfort. “Absence of Force” explores the resistance of silence and the search for your voice through control and emotional control.

The next track, “Unfound Existence,” is introspective and concerns the search for identity and self-understanding. Its theme of entering uncharted personal or creative territory adds a further dimension to the album’s rumination on change and uncertainty.

“Denial” explores internal conflict in the face of difficult realities. The track explores the gap between what people know and what they are prepared to accept. “Vector of Acceleration” suggests a more primitive existential horror, the sense that things are slipping out of our control. Another way to look at this tension is “Sonoluminescence,” a track about hope, survival, and seeing the light after the dark. It’s an emotional breath of fresh air in the album’s dark world.

Tangent

“Opposing Forces“ is the album’s closing track, and it leaves you with a feeling of tension and unresolvedness. It captures the eternal struggle between hope, darkness, and change, without a clear answer. Tangent is back in the sound with “Disclosure,” and each song approaches that territory from a different angle, creating a connected journey through hard truths, personal discovery, fear, and the possibility of moving forward. The album invites you to sit with the questions.
