Mia Muze – Four Pebbles
Single | 05/05/2024
3:48 | Digital/Visualizer
Indie Pop / Meditation
Springwood, QLD, Australia

For those who need to relax, recover, refuel, and retrieve themselves (so, basically everyone), here is a very helpful guided meditation session provided by Mia Muze. The artist from Queensland introduces the listeners to the rituals of the Children of Plum Village while soothing the audience’s senses with meditative sounds. This short and pleasant tune can be used for the beginning of a salutogenetic session.

Tanks and Tears – Timewave
Album | 01/03/2024 | Swiss Dark Nights Records
29:59 | 9 tracks | CD/Digital
Coldwave / Darkwave
Prato, Italy

They took a short break after releasing their first longplayer Aware in 2019, and now their comeback which started in 2022 has reached its first climax. Tuscan 80s-reviving Post Punk protagonists Tanks and Tears present a sophomore album that pushes the borders of cold and dark Wave sounds. With Timewave, the quartet has forged a bridge from the golden era of Post Punk to today, and they have frozen all clocks simultaneously.

Yama Uba – Silhouettes
Album | 24/01/2024 | Psychic Eye Records / Ratskin Records
35:28 | 9 tracks | Vinyl/CD/Digital
Darkwave / Synthwave
Oakland, CA, USA

The album Silhouettes is an impressive play with light and shadows, and a powerful vortex that drags the listeners to a foreign and fascinating space. Amidst this bright darkness Post Punk clashes with Jazz and Noise in the middle of a dancefloor where the only garment worn is bare honesty. Yama Uba sing, play, shout, and dance in a world that is very similar to ours.
