New Music from the Inbox for May 7, 2018: AKA Wolves, Deaf Poets, Mute Choir, & More!
Artist: AKA Wolves
Song: “Wanna Get”

LA producer and artist AKA Wolves has spent the last several years doing behind the scenes work for artists such as Deorro, Lostboycrow, and BellSaint, but is pleased to release his own debut single. I love the funky bass line and the shining synths.

From Portland, this indie band has a hefty tour line-up for the next two months, promoting their recently released album. As with the other tracks on the album, this song dissects the connection between memory and consciousness.

This Portuguese thrash metal band recorded this single with the “Circulo de Musica de Camara” Orchestra, blending thrash and orchestral metal. The track proves that the band is not afraid to explore soundscapes outside of their usual comfort zone.

A blend of disco rhythms and silky synths to create highly infectious pop is what Iconique is all about. I enjoy how fun this song is.
