Uk-Based Reggae Artist from Jamaica, Ross I-Yota, Announces New EP, “Reggae Garden.

Reggae music personified; Jamaican-born, UK-based Ross I-Yota embodies boundless versatility and creativity, both as a performer and storyteller. Even though he prides himself on his consistently iconic reggae brand, he is in no way limited to this sound only; he has showcased an innate ability to present music in multiple ways, reshaping how we perceive music with his distinctive genre-fusion style. His tunes are driven by the core nostalgic reggae soundscape but fuse a host of other strands such as dancehall, roots, and Afro-Caribbean-influenced sounds that certainly appeal to a vast market. And he does not sing for the sake of singing; he produces conscious music with relatable, relevant, and impactful lyrics as he values the aspects of reggae music where lyrics, musical quality, and authenticity matter.

Ross I-Yota is now gearing towards the release of his new EP dubbed “Reggae Garden”- a 4-track body of work that has been inspired by love: love for one another, love for oneself, love for reggae music, and that butterfly-causing romantic love.

Through this conscious cosmic exploration, Ross I-Yota takes us on a musical journey that is informative, inspiring, and entertaining, a noteworthy accomplishment in an age where many artists produce differently. You can tell how invested he was in making this project as well as his selfless intentions that inspired it. Also, you can feel his love for the genre woven throughout each performance. This is the kind of music that the world needs now!

“Reggae Garden” was inspired by the golden age of reggae/roots and dub music; while listening to some of those classics back in time, Ross I-Yota was inspired to create something with a similar vibe, melding the genre’s legendary essence with his unique touch to produce this substantial body of work.

“Show Love” is a bona fide masterpiece and a call for universal love for one another. The underlying message here is that we are all one, and thus, there is no need for this hatred, racism, meaningless wars, and subjugation. This is a call for us to see everyone for who they are—humans—instead of seeing them for the color of their skin, race, religion, continent, or heritage. The blend of the quintessential reggae percussion, bass, drums, and guitars, along with the sweet-sounding lead and choir-like backing vocal harmonies ensures that the message gets home and remains cemented.

The catchy hook, “show a lot of love (a lot of love)

Spread a lot of love (a lot of love)

Give a lot of love (a lot of love)” is where the gist of this track’s deeply relevant message resides!

“Free Up” reminds me of Bob Marley’s “Redemption Song” because it is a call for us to emancipate ourselves from mental slavery and free up our minds because no one else but us can. Many have become susceptible to misinformation, propaganda, and outright lies from those serving in various capacities of power, and it is about that time that we take that power back and allow ourselves to think freely without being manipulated.

The beat in “Reggae Garden” is irresistibly catchy and lingers in the mind. It is hypnotic and special, and the harmonious blend of vocals by Ross I-Yota and guest artist Ellel Flo elevates the song to greater heights. The way they bounce off one another is ear-worming and enchanting as they lyrically and melodically assert their love for reggae music. This tune is simply an ode to that unconditional love for reggae and everything it represents.

The last tune, “Reservation” is a classic reggae ballad inspired by love. Ross I-Yota wants you to listen to this track and feel all the emotions of being in love. He wants listeners to relate to the song and understand the feeling of being head over heels for someone. Armed with a mesmerizing and magnetic singing style, he really captures the essence of love and going out on a date with that special someone who makes your heart skip a beat!

 In conclusion, There is absolutely no reason why you shouldn’t be head over heels for this EP that was made with love and is all about that love!

Indonesia Based Producer Redrapbeat’s “Plastic Sweet Heart” Is Addicting and Heartwarming with a Retro Aesthesis- You Just Need to Tune In and Savor!

Redrapbeat, a virtuosic music producer and digital artist, prides himself on his versatility and storytelling panache. His strongest artistic attribute lies in the fact that he can transform just about any story into melodies with universal appeal. And when it comes to his creative expression, he does not believe in self-limitation, which is why you cannot box him in any one genre. He navigates the ever-evolving realms of hip-hop, electronic, lo-fi, and orchestral symphonies, among others. He is living proof that music can indeed be enjoyed in multiple forms and still invoke emotions in listeners. He is dedicated to exploring the intersection of different genres and pushing the boundaries of his own creativity to create unique music with instant appeal!

The track “Plastic Sweet Heart” is so many things. I want to hail the mixing here; it is top-level, and the artwork is also first-class. The end result is a song of the finest quality.

Many listeners report that this track evokes nostalgia for the 80s, reminiscent of the era’s distinctive sound… others going to a certain place in Tokyo, Japan, reveling under the colorful and flashing disco lights that move in time with the music as they dance with reckless abandon.

This is the kind of jam that makes you feel young again as it hits you right in the heart. And those synths, my god! They spread pleasant melodies all around. Everything stands out: the music, the energy, and the vibe exuded here.

It’s actually too bad that this jam isn’t long enough—before you know it, it is over and leaves you wanting more. That’s just how good it is, and to imagine that I randomly stumbled upon it makes me love it tenfold.

A longer version of this track with captivating female vocals could further enhance its appeal. I’d really float like a butterfly and sting like a bee!

Available on all popular platforms, give this banger a listen; you’re likely to enjoy every second of it!

Uk-Based Award-Winning Artist Marc Woosnam’s Debut Project, “Some Remedy” Is an Ultimately Triumphant Album That Makes Its Mark Time and Time Again.

With this 12-track album, Marc Woosnam offers quite the remedy with a scintillating blend of grunge, blues, rock, and folk. Wielding brash, soulful, smooth, and passionate sounds that hit hard and instantly captivate a listener, this album bridges the gap between stark human moments and wild, untamable energy, offering a unique perspective that only Woosnam can deliver. As a product of a 15-year creative process, it is little surprise that it has already secured its place in the Amazon Album Rock Charts.

You know, at the end of the day, it’s not just about making an album; it’s about capturing the essence of his music, the stories he wanted to tell, the emotions he wanted to convey, and the connection he wanted to make with his listeners. This album is a reflection of his musical soul, and he hopes it resonates with your hearts.

I listened to this magnificent body of work, which sees Marc pour his heart and soul into each and every track, and I’ve sampled a few tracks here to scratch your musical itch because you really need to experience this extensive work of art.

He hits the ground running and never once pauses for breath. Armed with all the trademark sounds of classic, bluesy, and grunge rock music, this Berkshire-based wizard wastes no time in making his mark, delivering a stellar opening cut in “All Fall Down”, a fiery track that emerges from thunderous percussive beats and rollicking electric riffs thanks to the help of both Marcus and Rob. As the track builds, the boys unleash a timeless medley of rhythm guitar, upright bass, and some self-assured vocals, laying a steady foundation with a strong automotive anthem!

“Sacrament” arrives in a gentle, blues-infused blend, conjuring up gorgeous shades of the original rock scene. It feels like the beating heart of yesteryear, revitalized for the modern age, making it a joy to hear. The theme is melancholic and delivered with the heart-wrenching tones of someone grappling with heartbreak and disappointment. The tune also brims with virtuosic guitar picking and awe-inspiring musicianship.

“Prosperity” is a proper rocker; it is a bold, textured sound that takes the lead from a broad selection of styles, showcasing Woosnam’s more nuanced, expressive side to his caustic rock sound.

“Met Your Match” features vividly expressive lyrics. It is a track that does not tiptoe around its weighty subject matter. This is a genuine standout that gives the listener something to think about long after the last note has faded because Marc offers variety with instrumentation and garage rock sensibilities.

Crashing riffs and pounding drums in “Sin” break down into a dark spiral of hard rock anthemics echoing visceral 90’s sounds and grunge aesthetics that conjure up comparisons to legendary bands like Nirvana and Guns N’ Roses.

“Till I Stop Missing You” features a gentle yet powerful production that wraps around the lyrics like a warm embrace. The tuneful guitar chops provide a captivating backdrop to delightfully complement the scene-stealing vocal performance. This tune is emotional, and Marc touches on a soul-stirring sentimental subject regarding the difficulties of letting go.

“Into Everything, Nothing” is another soulful jam with heartfelt lyrics and squeaky clean singing as Woosnam touches on a delicate theme, leaving a lasting impression with how he readily conveys vulnerability.

“Some Remedy” is not just music but relatable stories told through Marc’s own lenses, and it deserves to be heard more.
