Featured Music: Backlights, ‘Chase Scenes’

Backlights serve up some moody vocals and swirling synthesizer chords on this single from their soon to be released EP.  ‘Chase Scenes’ has a sweet and melancholy feel to it. I can almost hear the rain tapping suggestively in the streets. This track gets at a deeper more layered sound, seeming both heavy and light, wound up but unforced. Backlights have been creating quite a buzz lately. We can’t wait to hear some more from the NYC four piece.

Featured Music: Dilian, ‘Basement’

Dilian is a Brooklyn musician with an amazing sound, somehow managing to be clear and chaotic, naive and clever, moody and upbeat, all at the same time. We’ve been listening to Dilian’s ‘Basement’ all week. I think you’ll agree there really is a certain magic on this track, a folksy, inventive song with a sort of moody exuberance. Dilian has some new material on the way so keep your ears open.
