WINTER MOODS RELEASE HAPPY SINGLE AND VIDEO

Happy is the latest single from Winter Moods; the fourth song lifted off the band’s most recent album The Journey and most certainly one that will grab a good chunk of radio airplay too. The official music video for the song (filmed and edited by Motion Blur), was released on the same day as the single. The footage was shot during the band's memorable 30th anniversary concert, which took place last June at in Fort St Elmo. The concert also raised over €40k for Puttinu Cares.

JACK'S FUSION'S ELECTRIC DEBUT

There may (or may not, depending on your love of the sciences) be an interesting story behind the choice of Jack's Fusion for a band name. Whatever your inclination, the one sure thing is that this upcoming band's sound is indeed rather powerful or, as they prefer to put it, 'a mix of sounds and ideas that one could almost call an energy cocktail'. What better name then to give their debut single, if not Electric? Guitar-driven, rhythmic and packing a melodic punch, Electric

BERNE RELEASES NEW SINGLE AND VIDEO

London-based Maltese singer-songwriter Berne recently released the official music video for her emotive new single In The Woods. The slightly-creepy yet dramatic video sees Berne exploring personal demons as a narrative to the track. In a comment about the single, which was produced by Niki Gravino, Berne said In The Woods “is about being in a dark place so often and for so long that it becomes the only place you know. You begin to appreciate the beauty of this place because

THE SOUND OF SUMMER LOVE

The summer may be officially over, but that hasn't stopped local pop artist Malcolm Pisani from going ahead and releasing his latest single, an uplifting number by the name of Summer Love that is simply bursting with positive energy. The single is the latest in a string of releases which, during the past three years, have certainly raised Pisani's profile in the world of Maltese pop. Summer Love was composed and produced by Ticli & Gas, a Sicilian DJ and producer team that ha

CLUB MURDER DERAILED!

Ahead of the band's upcoming appearance at The Butcher's Pit Halloween concert alongside A Broken Design and Loathe, Maltese extreme rap-metal crossover act ClubMurder has just released a new track. As one might expect of this notorious collective, Derailed is a juggernaut of a track, boosted by raging guitars, slick scratching and pummelling rhythms, pinned together with the mother of all grisly metal grooves. The song was launched online on the band's YouTube channel yester

PLANET SEED LAUNCH NEW SINGLE & VIDEO

Despite only being around for a relatively short time, Maltese rock band Planet Seed has managed to maintain a firm presence within the local music scene. This is largely down to the band's immediate impact with debut single It's Gonna Be OK in 2012, which occupied the top spot on Bay Radio's Malta Top 10 charts for 4 consecutive weeks, even earning the band nominations for the Best Newcomers Award at the BMA's and MMA's that same year. Since then, the band has released two m

THIRD SINGLE FROM FORTY DAYS OF RAIN

In the year that has passed since releasing debut single Strings left to fray, Forty Days of Rain has continued to build up a steady following boosted by follow-up single Everything you want, regular radio airplay and the band's sporadic live performances. It's a trend that shows no signs of letting up too soon either, especially with the release of the band's third single Stay. Firmly rooted in Forty Days of Rain's signature melodic alt.rock timbre, the new single is a confi

THEA DOES IT AGAIN

Summer may be officially over, but just as the warm weather isn't going anywhere just yet, the sounds that dominated the local airwaves throughout the sunny season are still very much present, among them Thea Saliba's latest single, Do it again. Officially launched during this year's Farsons Great Beer Festival where Saliba was invited to perform on the main stage, the song is an upbeat number with a breezy Balearic sway. Produced by London-based Charthouse Music, the dance t

LYNDSAY: IT’S ALL ABOUT POP

There's always been an evident pop streak in all of Lyndsay's single releases to date, regardless of which genre she happened to be exploring at the time. Having dabbled in mainstream rock, acoustic pop, club music, power ballads and even dipped her toes in leftfield pop on last year's sublime Regent Street, her new single Sick Day is quite possibly her strongest statement in this regard. It's a catchy, flowing number with a subtle pulsating beat that more or less qualifies i

JASMAR CASSAR RELEASES DEBUT SINGLE AND VIDEO

There's one thing that upcoming Maltese artist Jasmar Cassar knows for sure, and it's that he loves singing. Despite his young age - he turns 17 next month - Cassar's been singing for more than a decade already, albeit operating mainly on the festival circuit. Further to his experiences as a young contender at the 2008 and 2010 editions of the Malta Junior Eurovision Song Contest, Cassar went on to place second at the Italian San Remo D.O.C. 2013 festival. In 2014, his song T

GRESHA RELEASES DEBUT SINGLE

By his own admission, Maltese artist Gresha is a self-styled bedroom producer, one of countless like-minded souls around the globe who have grasped the technology that is so readily available and used it transform their musical vision into reality. Having studied music, piano in particular as well as singing from a very young age, Gresha's initial forays into music saw him perform with various bands over the years, but he also harboured the dream of one day doing his own thin

RIKKI LEE'S NAUGHTY NEW SINGLE

His 2014 single Smile wasn't just a full-on summer anthem brimming with positivity, it also came with a music video that reflected that same feelgood factor while managing to fit in a private jet, a Pontiac and countless pictures of smiling people in the space of 4 minutes. One year and two other pumping singles later, Rikki Lee is back with a tune that is as naughty as its title suggests and an uber-sexy music video that Pitbull himself would have probably loved to crash.

THE VOYAGE: NEW SINGLE AND MUSIC VIDEO

They surfaced onto the local scene last year with debut single The Love You Never Took, a song that resolutely mapped out the band's musical co-ordinates. Operating in the space between guitar-driven pop and alternative rock, the song made it to the Top 10 of the Maltese radio charts, successfully bringing The Voyage's music out of their rehearsal room to the attention of Maltese music followers. The several gigs that followed underlined the fact that the band's energy was no

DASHA BRITAN: SOUNDS LIKE THURSDAY

The three original productions available to download at Dasha Britan's Soundcloud page have one common factor; they all feature a guest vocalist. Not so her latest release Thursday, which finds the Ukrainian-born Malta-based DJ and producer stepping up to the microphone herself to take over vocal duties. As with her previous releases, the new single is lifted off her forthcoming debut album Faces, currently a work-in-progress at Tobymusic studios, which should see the light o

NO TURNING BACK: CHRIS AND MOIRA'S LATEST RELEASE

It may be called No Turning Back, but that is exactly what Chris and Moira have done for their latest single. The song was originally featured on the 2004 album Uncivilized, which Chris and Moira had recorded and released back then under the name of Krave, but has been given a new lease of life after being picked for the soundtrack of new movie Cheat, which was shot in Italy and Malta.

SECRETS: NEW SINGLE FROM JON LUKAS WOODENMAN

45 years on from releasing what is quite likely the first international hit single by a Maltese artist, jon lukas woodenman remains entirely immersed in the world of music. If he isn't putting together his weekly woodenman's jukebox radio show, he's either attending a gig somewhere or other, or quite possibly in a recording studio working on new material. Having independently released a new single each year for at least the past four years - and written a gem of a pop tune by

CORINNA RELEASES INVINCIBLE SINGLE

A teacher by profession, Corinna is more popularly known locally as a model and possibly more than that, as a singer. In fact, having started singing at a very young age, it’s safe to say that music has been a primary constant in her life as far back as she can remember. Though her releases may be sporadic, she has nevertheless amassed a good number of songs to her name since releasing her debut single Someone New in 2011. Over the past four years she has worked closely with

An emerging talent on the local pop scene, Sarah Bonnici has just released her debut single Bandwagon.
