Ok, we know it’s a bold statement, but if you’ve seen this Venezuelan music and multimedia artist’s aesthetic, the way she pushes boundaries and the quality of her work, you’ve got to draw some parallels. Like David Bowie in the 70s, Arca’s entre into the art world (it seems limiting to just call her a...
Indie Music Worldwide – The Best Songs of 2021 on Spotify Welcome to the best songs of 2021 on Spotify according to the curators at Independent Music Promotions. As festivals and artists announce cancellations and multiple crises plague the music industry, it’s ever more important to recognize all the amazing new music still being released...
There was a lot to be disappointed in from 2016. They took Bowie, Prince, Merle, Leon and Leonard away from us. Kanye created one of the coolest stage sets — the mid-crowd hovering platform — only to implode a few weeks in as the stage was mechanically reeled in. Macklemore headlined Bonnaroo. Coldplay played the...
Over the years, since appearing in a pink Polo and a backpack with sunglasses like shutter blinds, Kanye West has taught us all a lot about where hip-hop can go and what fame can do to a man. With the release of his seventh album, The Life of Pablo, Mr. West has offered another...
As a three months for music, 2015 has contributed lots to the zeitgeist; between Kanye ‘jokingly’ attempting to take Beck’s Grammy from him, to Kanye’s Brit Awards performance being heavily censored and Kanye’s…you get the picture. While the infamous rapper might just feature on this mini-countdown (I’ll keep you in suspense for just a little...
Here’s the second chapter in a look at 2014’s releases… Lana Del Rey Yet another ‘marmite’ artist, the jury is still out for me on Lana del Rey. I do find her voice amazing at times, but it is slightly numbing that her belated success has only come after a re-branding process that saw her...
#12 Amok by Atoms For Peace Thom Yorke’s out-of-thin-air “Supergroup” finally gives us a stamped-and-sealed debut album of new material from the brains and spinal cords of Flea, Nigel Godrich, Joey Waronker and Mauro Refosco. Amok is everything Yorke’s solo album, The Eraser, is only with rhythms more tribal and persistent, songs that expand and experience rapid evolution. It’s always...
Kanye West, it seems, is just behind Daft Punk in terms of complete world domination and endless hype (I don’t think I’ve seen anyone infiltrate as many markets as Daft Punk on their recent release). No matter what he does, there is hype. The press reports every time he picks his nose. Early reviews for...
On “City Of Gods,” off the mixtape, KingMi, from Montana Maxx (or Mt. Maxx), the Detroit rapper explains, “I’m from a city where it’s god this and god that / but when we hungry it’s sell this or rob that.” No flash. No champagne. Just real life in America’s currently most disheveled city. On the...
For one of the most innovate and infectious hip hop tracks you’re likely to hear all year, check out “Sub-Conscience” by Tha Sleep Walkers, with it’s hypnotic Eastern samples and sparse, well-thought out rhymes. Sounding inspired by acts like The Roots and Kanye West with a touch of Andre 3000, this is both smart and...
Today we have an exclusive interview with MC Sykosis. Welcome to Independent Music Promotions. I liked both your delivery and the production, which seems to cover a bunch of electronic and bass/hip hop genres. Tell us about your music and any new releases. Thanks for the compliment! My music, in my opinion, has evolved immensely...
