Emmanuel Patterson

Emmanuel Patterson is a visual and musical artist out of Minneapolis, Minnesota.

“Silver Eyes” was written in the darkest hour of a sleepless night many years ago. It’s a song about that empty feeling of losing your way in life. The darkness.

The vocals are mere murmurs lost in the crevices of space and time — and the soundscape is an ethereal cosmic whisper gliding along the floor of a masterful melody.

It’s perhaps the perfect sonic backdrop for a long and sleepless night before one slips into the great abyss of the dreamworld.

Ben Laver

UK-based Ben Laver’s love for music began at the tender age of four years old.

Ben learned to play the piano by watching his father play and then honed his skills by studying at The Guildhall School of Music & Drama.

Today, Laver is creating beautiful neo-classical gems — and his latest drop is the first of a three part release inspired by the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows.

And now, here is the ethereal “Sleep” off this same EP.

Undertones of complex human narratives seem to litter the creative genius of Laver.

His new EP “Day One” is an emotional work of art focused on the natural sounds of an upright felt piano.

Robert Laser

In these strange and turbulent times of supposed social and political unrest, it seems the human race is utterly sick and in need of a healing. But, how might we be able to heal ourselves? Well, that’s easy — with music. And, psychedelics might not hurt either. But, I digress. Back to the music.

Robert Laser is an Indie rocker coming to us from planet earth. We think.

And, his latest three tracks are anything but bland. Instead, they’re some pretty gnarly lofi jams fit for the transcendence of the human race.

We hope to hear more from this promising artist soon.

“how can we heal ourselves when there’s no one who is looking out”

Check out Laser’s other two tracks on Soundcloud. I’d tell you to follow him on Facebook. But, I don’t think he has one. Peace and love.

Deep Sea Peach Tree

Deep Sea Peach Tree are a collective of alternative indie-rockers out of New York, New York.

Kristof Denis is on the guitar and holding down the lead vocals, Adam Wanetik is on the drums, and John Colapinto on the bass.

In June of last year, they released “Vaguely Navy” — a very chill album worth checking out. But first, here is their groovy jam, “Thinking Out Loud”. Lazy lofi surfer rock that’s good as gold.

P.F. Phillip and The Night Riders

P.F. Phillip and The Night Riders are an up-and-coming indie rock band and roommates from East London.

They dig jamming, eating pasta together, and watching trashy American comedies.

You might be able to catch them playing a show somewhere around London. Try The Finsbury, The Troubadour or The Old Queens Head.

And now, here is their nostalgic jam — “Your Lips Are For Kissing”.
