A connoisseur of vintage synths and keyboards, Wavewulf is an experimental artist to watch out for. Smooth production mixed with gargantuan soundscapes make for a unique and exciting take on electronic music. His ethos is just as wide as his music, basing his current album on concepts of the universe and the soul, of life and death and the human condition. He also used the tragic loss of his parents as inspiration, with songs that have all-encompassing feelings of desolation, awareness and poignant sadness, balanced out with songs that feel like a celebration of their lives, showing how much they meant to him. When you know the context it really gives you a whole new perspective when listening again. It hits differently.
Wavewulf really picks up on a variety of inspirations for his music, from David Bowie to Brain Eno. There are also references to video games and movies from the 80s and 90s as well as a particular proclivity for Depeche Mode, whose music started Wavewulf on his path ..
22nd January 2021 is a date that is destined to be marked in the annals of electronica history as the day that Wavewulf released his seminal synth masterwork, ‘Space Art and Angels’.
This album takes the listener on a supernatural voyage of galaxies, stars and supernovas that conjures up irresistible images of tranquil constellations and milky ways. Wavewulf is able to engineer this impact on the listener through his mastery of the synth that perfectly encapsulates an intergalactic sound, whilst the artist has also demonstrated his ability in conjuring up very powerful earth-bound emotions.
The album’s opening track track ‘Space Capsule’ is a wonderful instrumental composition that would perfectly fit into any science fiction film soundtrack and instantly demands the listener’s complete attention. The album’s stand out tracks lie in ‘Voyagers’ and ‘Ghosts of the Past’ which have an eerie vibe to them thanks to the exceptional synth playing combined with a gentle drum beat that creat..
Surrey based rapper Leoscappin is set to release his new EP ‘Alienated’ on February 5th. Despite having grown up in Brazil, the artist is currently settled in England, and it’s melodic American hip-hop that influences his sound. Quite the combination, then.
The lead track from the EP, ‘Lost You’, features smooth rap vocals, addictive synth and is perfect for anyone looking for something to chill out to. His thoughtful, topical lyrics are sure to resonate with many and his effortless vocals are enough to make anyone jealous of his potential.
Speaking about his experiences writing music, Leoscappin explained:
“I try to make all my songs have a different feeling and vibe. Some will make you think about your life, others are just for parties and some are just me trying to tell a story. I usually have an idea as soon as I listen to the beat and will follow through with that for the whole song, meaning if I don’t vibe with the beat in the first few seconds I’ll just move on”.

Glasgow-based duo Der Mist bring unique a fusion genre featuring elements of pop, rock, new wave, indie and electronic to the table, bringing a refreshing new edition to the world of upcoming music. Their self titled album is due for release on February 26th but if you can’t wait until then, you can get a preview of whats to come from their new single ‘It’s Alright’ which is out now, as well as getting excited for other tracks from the album being released over the next month.
You would be forgiven for mistaking Der Mist for a band due to their massive sound but the talent behind the music are multi-instrumentalists Craig McKissick and Ali Whitty. Ali met Craig after working his way through other bands such as Crash My Model Car (signed to V2 Records) and Augusta Fireball and eventually setting up a charity supporting young musicians. The pair have strayed away from what is expected of modern music and using a combination of their musical and technical skills to follow their own path..
Glasgow based electro-rock duo der Mist is set to smash on to the scene with their brand new single ‘It’s Alright’, releasing on January 15. The unique blend of pop, indie, rock and synth sounds gives this band a super unique edge that is hard to find in today’s climate. The new single brings something fresh and acts as a precursor to the release of their debut self-titled album next month which is something you do not want to miss.
Composed of Craig McKissick and Ali Whitty, both based in Glasgow, the duo are armed with a plethora of instruments and skills, making them sound as though there’s more in the band than just two. Having previously playing in Crash My Model Car (signed to V2 Records) and Augusta Fireball, Ali was introduced to Craig through a local charity he set up to help young musicians. Their introduction clearly worked, as the two decided to miss out on being in a traditional full band to become something a bit different.
Covid-19 lockdowns may have separated the duo,..

“[SFZ’s] A Massively interesting character and [there’s] a lot to come from him”
BBC Introducing
With his new song ‘Elevate’, there is a testament to his unquestionable talent and authenticity as an upcoming artist in the hip-hop scene. The track has a lo fi vibe and an seamless feel and sound to it.
Though, importantly, you can still hear every motivational and hard-gritted lyric behind every beat of the bar. This further reinforces his talent to effortlessly shell on the mic every time he is called to do so.

One of pop’s most interesting newcomers Sabine Moore, or Waterflower, has finally released her anticipated third studio album, a piece which will surely captivate and mesmerise listeners.
From the very off, the title track immediately hooks you in, immersing listeners in strange, new environments through audio alone. The sound of this album is incredible, as each track is vastly different from the last but rich in depth and complexity. The Latvia-based singer found popularity due to her ability to create musical tones using plants and flowers, and it is clear that this drive to create atmospheric sounds continues on Balta Gaisma.
Waterflower’s unique experimental brand of pop shines through on the album, with many tracks so distinct and boundary-pushing that the very template of modern pop songs are called into question. Although the album sounds so vast and expansive, there are moments of deep intimacy in which listeners find themselves as witnesses to the artist bearing her soul.
