Smigonaut’s latest EP ‘New Escape’ brings a pleasing melodic melange and a nonchalant swing into bass music - a rather unique sound that the Boston-based electronic artist is well-known for.

Striking a highly refined balance between the experimental ingredients and a solid 2&4 stomp, this three-track trip combines exciting sonic elements in a manner that will send you shimmying across the floor and at the same time, never leave you lacking for low-end. Intelligent, sensitive, groovy and energetic, ‘New Escape’ is one of the hottest EPs to drop in the left-field neuro bass sonic sector this year.

If you haven’t heard of Michael League, be prepared to immerse yourself into an ocean of virtuosity, joy & musical madness as there is no better time than now! The electrifying bass player and bandleader, who is very likely to be your favourite musician’s favourite musician, is the soul of the Grammy-winning outfit Snarky Puppy, and in his debut solo album ‘So Many Me’ he reveals a more intimate and vulnerable side of his creative expression.

Michael played every single instrument on the record including vocals, piano, synths, bass and Turkish percussion, as well as wrote, composed and conceptualized all of the tracks - talk about being in a league of his own! The music is fittingly poignant, uniquely uplifting and refreshing & the lyrics speak about various things like relationships, death and the cycles of life. As stated by the artist, it is above all a record about human observation, and is definitely one of my favourite records of the year so far!

Chennai based singer-songwriter and producer Damini Chauhan continues her electro-pop journey as ‘Krameri’ with a pensive, coming-of-age, yet light-hearted sounding new EP titled “Feels Like Amnesia”. The multi-faceted artist who hails from Gujarat, and has a penchant for the latest musical trends, can also be spotted alongside a stellar lineup of musicians in AR Rahman’s latest musical extravaganza “99 Songs” handling modular duties for (arguably) India’s finest and most well-known composer. The EP beautifully balances a bold simplicity with honest expression, and most definitely leads her one step closer to a bright musical future.
