This is our latest single, a modern twist on classic Chicago style blues. It’s called Isabella, after my daughter who was born at 24 weeks. I wrote this song while in hospital, it’s a dad’s bluesy journey through the neonatal unit

Depends on what you mean by “released” lol. I haven’t finished working on this track yet, I still need to record vocals, but it’s by far the best piece of music I’ve ever worked on so far.

Hope anyone listening enjoys it and has a great day! :slight_smile:

BVDLVD - D!CKHEAD

Yo Pirates,
My name is Josh, I’m 20 and I regularly use the Dalston Junction studios in London. During the lockdown, I wanted to challenge myself to create my most insane track yet. “D!CKHEAD” was the result of that lol. All self-engineered, mixed, mastered and the beat was co-produced over discord with my friend. We sampled a bunch of sounds like Steve and the Ghast from Minecraft, and "Break Da Law '95 by Three 6 Mafia. A clearly sophisticated combo :joy:


Here’s the music video me and my girlfriend shot. Took us 8 days to film. We ended up turning her parent’s kitchen into a temporary photo studio and with £0 budget we managed to take all the newspapers from the train stations in London and create a 7ft backdrop covering the ceiling and floor.

You can watch a behind the scenes video of the whole thing by clicking here

I edited the video myself as managed to teach myself a few tricks in after effects when I was 15.

You can also find the track on these platforms too:


Sorry for the massive storytime, I’m just really proud of this song as I spent so long getting it exactly how I wanted it to sound. The pandemic really made things difficult but in a way, it was kinda fun being forced to be creative in different ways!

Good luck to everyone who enters!

For this track I used apple loops. I have lyrics for it but I’m looking for a good studio to edit and master and provide vocal recording equipment. Listen to I’m Home Intrumental - Monkey Blizzz by Monkey Blizzz on #SoundCloud

FIVE MILES AWAY’ is a concept Ep that sounds like a Christopher Nolan movie soundtrack a hybrid universe of post-punk/cinematic sound attack.
M ΛTSCH combines a mix of organic rock and hypnotic electronic soundscapes, layered with minimal electro lines and a straightforward melody, in which the influences of Depeche Mode, The Cure, and Barry De Vorzon composer are audible and deeply felt.

Power is a powerful motivational rock anthem from Alexander Lindo’s recently released album entitled “The Fight Is Ours”. Despite all of the chaos, trials and tribulations we must embrace and love ourselves, fight for our goals, our loved ones and our livelihood. It is a crime when one goes out of their way to destroy ones life. If you see someone doing harm to someone else’s life do something to help. That very same person you helped could very well be the one to determine your fate when you are left hanging off the ledge of a cliff. For all those going through hell: victims of hate, envy, jealousy and bad mind, this song is for you!
