New Music from the Inbox: Muse, Brockhampton, Jean Michel Blais, and more!
Artist: Muse
Song: Something Human
The folk-pop vibes on this new track make it lighter and happier than most Muse music, however it is recognizable in Bellamy’s distinct vibrato, it’s blend of acoustic and electronic, and cinematic grandeur that has made Muse so successful for so many years. Expect to see this one on a new album out November!

Artist: Jean-Michel Blais
Song: Roses
Album: Dans Ma Main
This graceful, emotional and intimate classical piano composition is for his friend’s mother who died from cancer. He says of the song: “The ostinato, the repeating single note in the intro, represents her beating heart, and the ever-present tumour, sometimes forgotten but still growing. How do ill people find peace, if they can at all? “roses” is my attempt to reflect a journey of someone’s musical memories, wandering from pop to classical remembrances, concluding on nostalgic harmony.”

Song: No Consequences
Album: My Flag is a Burning Rag of Love
This is a perfect track if you don’t mind something a little bit weird. It has a manic energy and discordance that is a bit unsettling at first but it the heavy beats make for a good tether and it is interesting enough to make it worth it.
