3) Ariel Pink & Winston Marshall - Rudolfs Laptop

  

New single from US lo-fi pop (Ariel Marcus Rosenberg) + Winston Aubrey Aladar deBalkan Marshall (ex Mumford & Sons) 

I approached Ariel the day after he released the og version of this track, Reindeers Falling, on his substack to make the music vid for it as a long time fan of his art, and havng made more unofficial vids for him than anyone else, before I broke into doing official vids. I worked non stop for multiple days on this, I get the argument's against a.i art but not the way I use it as a tool, if u think that then cancel Tarintino n every other major artist you love. Everything's a remix and I work HELLA hard to remix the shit I do as do my friends and peers. Luv y'all even if you disagree, merrh Xmas n happy holifays n life no matter what u do. Right Wing, Left Wing, Chicken Wing right?

5) Erai / ...And Then I Feel Nothing - split

 

 

 
News from Berlin emo-punk... 

When Rouven, who drums for both ...And Then I Feel Nothing and erai, had decided to go and travel eastern Europe between June 2022 and February 2023, we considered it a good idea to record one song for each band before his departure. That way we would have a project to work on and finalize during his absence. It wouldn't have made much sense to book a studio for recording just two songs, so we rented some inexpensive microphones and recorded and later mixed both songs ourselves. Meanwhile, we had to find a new singer, too, and by September we were fortunate enough to meet Andrey, who had just left his hometown Moscow for good. As it turns out, he had been running a recording studio full-time for the last 10 years. However, we decided to not alter the almost finished mix again and just leave it as it was, to document the band's skill and craft for the time being.
