We are coming back with "Loud Sounds" to show you some of the best new tracks we've found.
Poise – Marble (feat. Half Waif)
Rising artist Poise (aka Lucie Murphy)joins forces with indie synth pop star Half Waif. The resulting song feels effortless. The weightless ethereal vocals from both participants are counterbalanced by huge bass and heavy rhythm, with the rest of song's sonic space staying beautifully transparent.
Lucie Murphy
Making the song was my first foray into the pop sphere. In lieu of technical skill I learned to trust my taste and gut instincts while producing and arranging. One of my key influences in this process was my friend, Nandi Rose's project, Half Waif (ANTI-). I've known Nandi for nearly a decade; she has been such an inspiration to me as a songwriter and woman in the music industry. I was thrilled when she agreed to collaborate on the song with me. Nandi wrote and recorded her part 9 months pregnant, completing it just days before her son, River, was born. It was auspicious timing and I'm amazed at how much beauty women can bring into the world.
AK Sports – Ride Or Die
This cut from Sydney-bred artist and producer AK Sports is a true dancefloor filler. The track is built from infra-deep bass, harsh kicks and laser-sharp synths building up a feeling that's half euphoria and half anxiety. But the main element of the track is, of course, the vocal hook that gave the composition its title.
