HOAX – “Grow”
This five-piece indie-soul band met at Hofstra University in New York in 2015. They found a common interest in vintage sounds and started to experiment with topping pop, R&B and hiphop with an alternative, indie-soul layer. Their sophisticated, societal lyricism adds a touch of authenticity to their eclectic style. Their 2016 debut single “Beach House” lead to a nine-chapter short story.
Brimming with 70s nostalgic tones, their latest single is an effortless blend between old and new. The disco rhythm and vintage modulating guitar chords give it a multi-colored dance-floor vibe, while still keeping a foothold in the modern indie-pop realm. Lyrically reflecting on what it means to be human, Mike Raj’s cheery falsetto vocals boogie down to this catchy, happiness-inducing retro jam.
Robert Palmer – “Every Kinda People”
From his album “Double Fun” (1978):Against The Current – “Voices”
From their album “Past Lives” (2018):Chris Rob – “No Doubt”
Born and raised in Chicago, this singer, songwriter and producer is also a multi-instrumentalist, playing piano, drums, guitar and bass. Since 2003 he’s performed with greats such as Kanye West and Stevie Wonder and was musical director for a John Legend tour. He’s also opened for Prince, Ashford & Simpson and Alicia Keys amongst countless others and released four studio albums to date.
Soaked in soulful seventies tones, his latest single radiates a suave, Motown-reminiscent vibe. The organic sounding orchestration of an oscillating beat, airy guitar and breezy brass give this song a nostalgic, debonair feel, while his polished and soul-infused vocals, serenading that someone special, add a vintage smoothness, making this a swinging earworm with a buoyantly funky flavor.
