A New Era of Diversity: Lachi Unveils ‘Mad Different’ Series and Captivating Debut Video

Renowned singer, songwriter, and disability rights advocate Lachi is commanding the spotlight with her groundbreaking series, Mad Different, and the dazzling debut performance video, Out of the Dark. Mad Different is an innovative concert series designed to amplify underrepresented voices through powerful music and storytelling. This first installment, Out of the Dark, highlights Lachi’s artistry with high-production visuals and compelling narratives, reshaping perceptions of disability, talent, and activism.

Mad Different features an intimate series of unplugged concerts filmed at Amazon Music Studios in New York City, as well as behind-the-scenes footage and artist interviews, offering a rare and intimate glimpse into the lives and artistry of these intersectional artists. It focuses on diverse experiences intersecting with Black/Brown, Queer, Trans, Neurodivergent, and Disability identities.

Lachi joins forces with a diverse array of world-class female musicians and celebrated co-artists, each bringing their unique perspective to the stage. From non-binary neurodivergent artist Medusa and deaf performer Indi Robinson, the series promises a rich exploration of identity and belonging through their original songs.

“As a Black woman, I was told to keep my head down to avoid being perceived as aggressive or a mad Black woman.As a person with a disability, I was forced to fit in. This led to me (and so many like me) hiding my spark, my truth, my soul. The world wasn’t built for people like me. I’m mad, and it drives me. I’m different, and it elevates me. It’s time we celebrate that – our mad, our different.” – Lachi

Mad Different is more than a series of performances; it’s a community-driven cultural movement. Fans are invited to follow the creation of each performance and engage with the artists through TikTok, YouTube, and other social media platforms. By sparking conversations about identity and difference through dynamic social media engagement and partnerships, the series fosters an inclusive dialogue. Using the hashtag #MadDifferent, fans can share their own stories of self-acceptance, creating a space where differences are celebrated, and everyone is encouraged to connect and contribute to this growing community.

The first single, Out of the Dark, will be released on October 25th, just in time for Halloween. This haunting, jazz-inspired track delves into themes of self-liberation and the journey of embracing one’s authentic self, featuring Lachi alongside co-artist Medusa. Known for their avant-garde ‘revenge-pop’ style, Medusa combines thick beats, visceral melodies, and unapologetic storytelling to explore queer joy, pain, and defiance, empowering outcasts and promoting neurodiversity. A true boundary-pusher, Medusa has performed for diverse audiences, from underground venues to major stages like NYC Pride and SXSW. Fans can experience Out of the Dark across platforms, with a performance video and both acoustic and fully-produced versions available.

Upcoming releases include A Girl (November 2024), Diseducation (December 2024), and That Kinda Black (January 2025), continuing the series’ focus on identity and empowerment. Don’t miss the debut of Out of the Dark, and join the celebration of voices living their Mad Different truths.

We are very pleased to announce that “Do iT” by GENTLE GLOW has officially joined our A-List Playlist! Get ready to hear this captivating and touching track day and night as it dominates the airwaves. Even more exciting, “Do iT” will be played daily as a special POWERPLAY at 9 PM Pacific for the next month, giving you even more chances to enjoy its vibrant and smooth energy!

The song, written by the talented duo Jasmin Neuninger and Roman Schrank, was recorded at Boogie Park Studio in Hamburg, with production by Leon Christen. This well produced and beautiful track is sure to be a favorite, so tune in and let GENTLE GLOW light up your day!

The Austrian pop band Gentle Glow releases their new single: “Do iT”

A powerful reminder to do something and be creative without thinking too much about it! September 2024 – The Austrian pop band Gentle Glow, consisting of 5 members, including the two songwriters Jasmin Neuninger and Roman Schrank, will present their new single “Do iT” on September 20, 2024. The track is a spontaneous reflection on the band’s journey and an exploration of their artistic resilience.

The band teamed up to record their new track “Do iT” at Boogie Park Studios, one of the most successfu music studios in Germany. The creation of this song is something very special because it actually came about completely by chance and almost spontaneously.

“Do iT” offers an insight into the personal and professional challenges that Jasmin Neuninger and Roman Schrank faced in the past year. The song’s creation is associated with a pivotal moment in the band’s career. While Jasmin thought about a possible job change, Neuninger and Schrank struggled with whether they should continue to invest in their music production, music marketing and instruments or focus on something else instead. This period of uncertainty led to a critical decision point for both, compounded by the challenges presented by today’s highly competitive music industry.

“Do iT” emerged from a spontaneous session in the rehearsal room at that time. In a spark of creative momentum, the two decided not to rehearse their usual live set and routine for once. Instead, they improvised new music just to make something that was more fun and more liberating for both of them. This impromptu session led to the creation of the song and captured a moment of unplanned inspiration that really paid off. The text was written after the session. That same evening, it embodied a sense of urgency and a desire to act instinctively rather than routinely and to keep that creative flame alive.

In a landscape where musicians are often confronted with the dichotomy between passion and sustainability, Gentle Glow’s new release is a reminder of the profound meaning of music that goes beyond financial gain. “Do iT” conveys the message of following your intuition and seizing the moment, which reflects a broader “carpe diem” philosophy. This topic is particularly relevant at a time of uncertainty and challenges for artists.

The song is notable for its stylistic diversity and showcases the band’s ability to combine different influences into a cohesive sound.

Gentle Glow’s “Do iT” will capture the attention of music lovers and critics alike, offering both a personal narrative and an immersive sonic experience. As the band embarks on their artistic journey, this new single marks a significant chapter in their evolving story. The song will be available in September. In the meantime, you can already delve deeper into the artist’s discography!

Feel the Power of “Read My Lips” by MATD & Johanna Koskiniemi on The Hollywood FM Digital Playlist

We are excited to announce that the powerful, rocking and melodic new single ‘Read My Lips’ from MATD Feat ‘Johanna Koskiniemi’ is now on our A-List Playlist. Stay tuned to hear this track night and day on the playlist + it will also be spun as a special ALTERNATIVE ROCK POWERPLAY at 8 PM Pacific for the next month.

This was the first MATD song Marcos Kuusjärvi and Veli Eronen sent to Finland’s Eurovision Song Contest. The song didn’t qualify, and it was never released. The song was completely remade in 2024, and the lyrics were also changed to a “lighter direction”. At the same time, it became more of a rock song.

The original idea of the song was that dictators don’t have a happy ending! The people will eventually revolt and put an end to the dictatorship. Maybe not the ultimate Eurovision material. The song was transformed to tell a new kind of story. In the new version, we approach a relationship. What could a cheating spouse read from your lips? Read My Lips! “As long as the heart beats with the rhythm of love Love needs trust, another one bites the dust.”

Singer Johanna Koskiniemi is a former music class teacher who has also just completed a basic degree in metalwork. She has always loved music and has been involved in some way with music all her life. Johanna has studied piano, saxophone, and trumpet and has also taken singing lessons.

She has also been seen in various singing competitions and theater productions and has studied music and acting all the way abroad. Johanna has been voted FinnRadio.FM’s hit Artist of the Year two years in a row, and the song she recorded, Tee Mulle Taivas, was chosen on the same channel as Hit of the Year 2023.

Nowadays, Johanna has consciously moved in a more pop direction in her production. The wonderful collaboration that started a year ago with the band MATD now continues with an even rockier song. Read My Lips is Johanna’s second English recording. It is a survival story about a difficult relationship and breakup. It is even faintly psychedelic verses lead the listener to a moment when they realize that life is far too short to waste on a bad relationship; stop crying, everything will be alright! In the chorus, the middle finger is shown to the whole world! I survived the cheater gets to bite the dust!

A-List Star: Gianluca Zanna’s Latest Single Takes Over Hollywood Playlist

We are excited to announce the addition of Gianluca Zanna’s stunning new single, ‘What Could Have Been,’ to our celebrated A-List Playlist! You can catch it day and night, and as a special POP ROCK POWERPLAY at 2 PM Pacific, it will receive daily spins for the next month.

Who is Gianluca Zanna, CEO of Zanna Records?

Gianluca Zanna’s musical journey began in Rome, Italy, where he spent his early childhood by the sea, enchanted by his grandfather’s serenades and the epic cinematic scores from his family’s movie theatre. However, his idyllic surroundings changed when he entered Italy’s prestigious National Boarding School “Convitto Nazionale” at just 10 years old. Later, he attended the elite Military Academy Nunziatella, the world’s oldest military school.

It was during his time at boarding school that Zanna discovered music’s transformative power. Rather than playing soccer like his peers, he immersed himself in songwriting, finding old instruments in the school’s attic and teaching himself to play guitar, bass, and drums. At the same time, Zanna developed a love for classical Italian poetry, drawing inspiration from greats like Ovid, Dante, and Petrarch. This passion for words and music led him to fill notebooks with poetry, which would later become lyrics for his songs.

As a young dreamer in Italy, Gianluca looked up to legendary producer and sound engineer Brian Reeves, who worked with icons such as Donna Summer, Giorgio Moroder, and U2. Today, Reeves collaborates with Zanna, mixing some of his most recent tracks, including ‘I Want to Know,’ ‘Storm,’ ‘I AM, and ‘The Other Side of My Heart (Remix).’

Be sure to listen out for ‘What Could Have Been’ and experience Gianluca Zanna’s musical evolution for yourself!

She won the award for Best Reggae Singer in November 2020 by The Lady Flava Radio Network Awards in Connecticut, USA.

For the past decade, dynamic vocals, choreography, and energy have become a signature of her live shows. O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire, Reggae on the Hill, Nottingham Carnival, MIDEM, NACA, and SxSW are just a few big stages upon which Ayana John has performed. Displaying a modelesque physique, Ayana has attracted Barbadian designers such as Nefertari, Pauline Bellamy, and Lucy Lui to model their designs on stages and red carpets. As a former Ms. Barbados Bikini and 1st runner-up Ms. Barbados Universe, a passion for fashion and stage preexisted before the music.

Since Rihanna, the presence of Barbadian musical acts on the international music charts has been lackluster. The goal is to make a significant crossover to the musical mainstream with a strong sense of Caribbean identity. Ayana sees her music on the Billboard Hot 100 and collecting a Grammy someday for Best Reggae/Dancehall Performance, Record of the Year, and Album of the Year. The sky is the limit!

In fact, the artist wants to reach out to listeners of “different races and religions” that all come together in support of his sound.

While he has yet to perform in front of an arena, Satgame is looking forward to live performances in the near future. “I’m going to give them everything out of my catalogue,” says the artist. Fans can look forward to Satgame’s energy and drive, as well as his full portfolio of music.

Speaking of music, what are Satgame’s passions outside of the art? “None. I live, die, sleep, and breathe music. There’s no quitting,” Satgame exclaims. With that level of dedication, it’s undoubtable he will create impactful work in the years to come.

The first version features Pazzy Blu and the Piano Vox version features Remii.

The band’s songwriter firmly believe that Blues is the extraordinary music gift to humanity and to help humanity progress in its battle against racism which likely will never stop & proven fiendishly challenging. Our songwriter, in exploring Blues, plan to embolden without embittering – not unlike Martin Luther King.

Tom is a songwriter-producer of the indie band Tom & His Free Mockingbirds. He is also the leader of the band and Tom has the vision of growing the band into a big band like Count Basie & His Orchestra. Tom is a prolific and consummate songwriter-producer.

The band loves all genres but often veered towards Blues and Folk Rocks. Tom as a front man is greatly influenced by blues icons like Duke Ellington & His Big Band, and Count Basie & His Orchestra. His benchmark on songwriting is Bob Dylan.

The single “I Still Luv Sweet T&T”, produced by Ackahdan, teases the senses with a blend of traditional calypso and soca. The blending of the producer’s Antigua-born rhythms and Simply Missy’s eclectic blend of NYC and Caribbean culture of sounds and melodies set a mood with her ASMR-adjacent voice.

Listening to the single “Fete Too Much”, with featured producer Trini Baby (Vernice Mariah Herreira) from Trinidad & Tobago, alongside her blends soca and dancehall vibes for a pulsating dance track. With the fabulous technique of her in-house mix and mastering engineer, and Certified Avid ProTools User, her son Jasir Abdullah-Musa, trust that playing Simply Missy tracks in the car, on radio rotation, Instagram/Facebook livestreams or podcast segments (for social media creators) is sure to be a whole sonic vibe your soul has been waiting for.

“Oh Brooklyn (A Trini Grows in Brooklyn)”, out now on all streaming platforms, speaks to growing up in the “melting pot” of Brooklyn and part-time in the Caribbean twin island of Trinidad & Tobago, and learning how to navigate expectations of loved ones in the ever-changing landscape and gentrification of Brooklyn. It reminds us that no matter the peer pressure, the struggles with learning to be “yourself,” despite culture-pressure and just plain old learning about “adulting,” we can carve out a life we love. Sometimes, that does mean leaving the place (or people) you love, so you can appreciate it/them more. Oh Brooklyn.

Take a taste of the song “Oh Brooklyn (A Trini Grows in Brooklyn)”, performed and written by Simply Missy; beat produced, mixed and mastered by Jasir Abdullah-Musa.

Simply Missy has also set a goal to secure several sync licensing deals for placement of her songs in feature films, television and commercials. She also plans to explore her film, TV and voiceover acting chops while continuing to put her voice and penned words to song.

From Mexico to the World: David Appleton’s Musical Journey and “EL AMANTE” Revelation now on the Hollywood A-List Playlist.

We are pleased to announce that the new single ‘EL AMANTE’ from ‘David Appleton’ is now on our prestigious Daily A-List Playlist. Listen out for it night and day on the playlist + it will also be played daily as a special SPANISH POWERPLAY at 7:45 PM Pacific USA time for the next month.

David Appleton, is a Dominican singer, musician and composer raised in Mexico, where he discovered his talent for music at the age of 10. In his journey as a professional in the industry he has released several albums such as: Sol, playa y arena, No Soy Poeta and Opinión, which have been very well received by the public.

David Appleton has not only written his own songs for himself but is also the composer and performer of the official theme song for the CARIBBEAN BASEBALL SERIES “Caribe”. He has also participated in Got Talent Spain and La Voz España demonstrating a bold stage presence and connection with the audience.

The song “EL AMANTE” is based on a true story, it is a married couple that begins to have difficulties because the husband begins to neglect his partner, in those neglects the lady of the house begins to flirt with the worker of the house and they start a relationship in secret but, the wife tells the worker that the only condition that they can be together is if he decides to stay in the shadows because she does not want to risk the economic status she has even though she is no longer in love with her husband.

I think this work will give a special touch to my catalog because of the colors and the musical functions, I made a trip to the classic R&B and added a touch of Godspell without losing the modernity, the craziest thing about this style is that I did it in Spanish. I think it is a song that will be enjoyed very much (I already do) and I can even say that it is something innovative for a Spanish singer.

Journey Through Sam Brothers’ Musical Odyssey: ‘The Folksinger’ EP Drops April 5th with the Haunting ‘Through The Dark’ on the Hollywood A-List Playlist

We are pleased to announce that the new single ‘Through The Dark’ from ‘Sam Brothers’ is now on our Daily A-List Playlist. Listen out for it night and day on the playlist + it will also be played daily as a special BRITISH FOLK POWERPLAY at 2 PM Pacific USA time for the next month.

New Sam Brothers EP is a love letter to The British Folk Scene. The Kent (UK) based troubadour goes all in on folk in his most recent collection of recordings, aptly named “The Folksinger”. Due for release on Friday 5th April 2024.

After many years of travelling the country and further afield, supporting the likes of Nick Lowe, Sarah Jarosz, Speirs & Bowden and in a variety of live settings, Canterbury (UK) dweller Sam Brothers has announced the release of a new EP which will be available on all streaming platforms from Friday 5th April 2024.

Due to the fact that Sam makes his living from performing, whether it be on larger stages as far away as South Korea or closer to home in the darkest depths of Kentish alehouses, it made sense that this new collection of mostly original music should be a reflection of his live performances. It was recorded by Producer/Engineer Neil Sullivan (Chris Difford, Gorrilaz, Damo Suzuki) without a great deal of overdubs or audio processing.

The collection has a strong 1960’s Greenwich Village vibe, the arrangements nod towards Irish Folk music with Bodhran courtesy of Stewart Hughes and following in the folk tradition, this collection of six songs is thematically varied. You can expect songs dealing with war in the middle east, materialism and love, not a million miles away from some of the work of folk luminaries such as Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger.

The new 6 track collection titled “The Folksinger” is in Sam’s own words “….An honest representation of where I’m at musically and is at its heart, a love letter to a kind of music that has guided me along the road”.

A track from the EP entitled “Through The Dark” will be released on streaming platforms Friday 15th March and there will be a launch show at St. Mary’s Art Centre, Sandwich on Friday 5th April featuring original Rolling Stone/Pretty Things guitarist Dick Taylor with whom Sam has worked with extensively over the years. Sam will go on to spread the word about the EP around the UK and Germany throughout April and May.

Press quote for Sam’s first album “Farewell To My Old Days” –
‘…Always compelling, a real treat. Watch this space’ – Acoustic
