Wild Horse Unravels the Intricacies of Love in New Single “Tangled”

Wild Horse, the up-and-coming indie trio, is set to release their third single of the year, “TANGLED,” just in time for their much-anticipated appearance at the Great Escape Festival. The band, known for their infectious energy and unique blend of hip-hop beats and classic British rock influences, has already gained significant attention with their first two singles, “COUGAR” and “ANGLES,” both of which were featured as BBC “Tracks Of The Day.”

Written by all three band members—Jack Baldwin, Henry Baldwin, and Ed Barnes— “TANGLED” showcases Wild Horse’s evolution in sound and style. The song is produced by Matt Leppanen and was recorded at the esteemed Animal Farm Music studio in London. With an irresistible 1980s synth-pop inspired musical backdrop, “TANGLED” delves into the complexities of maintaining a long-distance relationship, an all-too-relatable theme in today’s world.

The band’s recent releases have generated exceptional praise from critics, broadcasters, and radio stations, with widespread press and blog coverage further fueling the momentum. Wild Horse’s music has been regularly played on numerous FM and internet stations worldwide, including mainstream BBC Sussex, Surrey, and Kent shows.

Adding to their growing list of achievements, Wild Horse has been selected as one of the first 50 bands to perform at the 2023 Great Escape Festival in Brighton. The trio has also embarked on their first national UK tour, taking the stage at iconic venues such as The Blues Kitchen in Manchester, The Brudenell Social Club in Leeds, The O2 Academy in Birmingham, Komedia in Brighton, The Old Fire Station in Bournemouth, O2 Academy in Oxford, Thekla in Bristol, and The O2 Academy in Islington, all between March 30th and April 29th.

Hailing from Sussex, Southern England, Wild Horse was formed by brothers Jack and Henry Baldwin, along with their best friend from primary school, Ed Barnes. The band’s members have been passionate about their music since their teens, and despite their young age, have already recorded an impressive number of tracks. This dedication has earned them enthusiastic support from BBC Intros, BBC local shows, RadioX, Caroline, Amazing, and numerous other local FM and internet stations across the globe.

Wild Horse’s signature sound—a fusion of funked-up guitar pop with exuberant hip-hop beats and classic 60s/70s Brit Rock—captures the essence of a night out, ready to take on the world. “TANGLED” promises to be a heartfelt and nostalgic journey into the struggles of long-distance love, set against the vibrant soundscape that has become synonymous with Wild Horse.

Album Review

R3b3l I explores self-discovery through sound on “A Different Frequency” album

In a music scene often ruled by lyrics, R3b3l I proves that you can tell a powerful story without a single lyric. “A Different Frequency” is a twelve-track instrumental hip-hop and rap-inspired album inviting you into a deeply personal journey of growth, self-discovery, and purpose, speaking its message purely through mood, rhythm, and expression.

“Dance Before the Throne” opens the album, immediately establishing the tone of reflection and reverence. From here, “Elevate” and “The Wave” continue, adding momentum and a sense of movement and change. Each piece is a chapter in a larger story, allowing you to interpret the music with your own experience.

Songs like “I AM Power,” “Level Up,” and “Awaken” seem to be a big part of the progression of the album. The energy is one of empowerment and inner evolution. “The Jazzy Hop” is a nice change of pace in style, with a smooth, groove-flavored taste that shows R3b3l I’s versatility. Meanwhile, “Carousel,” “Raindrops,” and “Heartbeat” are moments of introspection that balance uplifting themes with emotional depth and openness.

Artist Spotlight

“Signalling Signatures” finds Mr Pigeons exploring dreams, truth, and hidden meanings

While the first look at an upcoming project usually sets the expectations, Mr Pigeons does something more ambitious with “Signalling Signatures.” With this release, the hip-hop artist opens up a portal into “Shining Arras,” inviting you into a world where dreams, symbols, and hidden meanings collide.

“Signalling Signatures” is an exploration of the thin veil between reality and imagination, based on themes of altered consciousness and shifting perspectives. The song is a mix of mythology, film, and spiritual symbolism and encourages you to look beyond the ordinary and find the messages in everyday life. Mr Pigeons delivers with purpose and swagger, blending introspection with crisp storytelling. He also renders the abstract ideas of the song accessible.

The thing about “Signalling Signatures” that is so compelling is its sheer audacity to challenge you. There are no easy answers in this song, only a quest for truth, perception, and uncertainty. A good opening chapter to “Shining Arras,” and it manages to build up suspense as well as showing Mr Pigeons’ artistic vision. “Signalling Signatures” is a good introduction to what could be an interesting new creative phase for the artist.
