Transmissions + Henry Walters - 'Slippers and Robes for Slappers and Rubes' EP
A collaborative EP from Henry Walters and Transmissions, Slippers and Robes for Slappers and Rube envelops across both fervent rockers (“Mermaid”) and ambient electronic experimentation (“Alpine Blues”). The release represents an evenly divided collaboration — featuring two reciprocal covers, two new collaborative tracks, and a new original song each. “Human Get-Together” opens the album with a charming, stream-of-conscious feeling. “You’ll have egg on your face at the human get-together,” the vocals let out amidst steady acoustic guitar and gentle piano touches. Ardent pulses of electric guitar punctuate the title-touting chorus, distinguishing between the peppier vocal pace within the verses. This
Listen: The Planet Hour - "Gutpunch!" -- Obscure Sound
Scottish band The Planet Hour strut a compelling rock sound throughout their new single “Gutpunch!” — representing the project’s first foray into using electric guitars. This more rock-forward stylistic direction thoroughly succeeds here, following an initial acoustic-forward embrace on earlier releases. With a variety of live shows and another upcoming single in “Nothing More To Say,” The Planet Hour’s momentum is palpable. Trickling guitar twangs drive seamlessly into a calmly melodic vocal confidence. “Another gut punch,” they begin, adding “I’m gonna need a medic to walk it off.” Singer/guitarist Jamie Taylor notes that the track was written while the roof

Stockholm-based artist Above Moi emits a compelling folk-pop appeal on new single “I Will Come and Get Us.” The track comes via the debut album Songs I Might, which plays as a snapshot of the artist’s life — the artist being Emil Andersson, aka Above Moi. A beautiful assortment of piano, guitar, and strings propel alongside Andersson’s riveting vocal presence for a memorable sound — impressing across both piano-set quaintness and soaring pop heights. A gentle intertwining of piano and acoustic guitars complement a reflective vocal presence. “Look in every wardrobe, every corner, to make sure that we are safe,”
Listen: Jody Chamberlain - "The Sun" -- Obscure Sound
Lush acoustics, flourishing guitar twangs, and harmonious vocals lead a radiant entrancement on “The Sun,” a recent single from Atlanta-based singer/songwriter Jody Chamberlain. The production pairs a jovial soundscape, fit for beach-side contemplation, with a lyrical yearning for “self isolation and solace.” Wordless vocal harmonizing and a dynamic vocal lead intertwine, developing seamlessly from introspection to a title-touting vibrancy. Bursting guitars past the two-minute mark further the replay-friendly qualities, playing with an aesthetic fondly reminiscent of Dent May. “The Sun” is a hooky earworm from Jody Chamberlain. — This and other tracks featured this month can be streamed on the
Least and Most: Tunnel of Love | Mumbling About…
While he's never pulled a Landing On Water style curveball, it's not as though Springsteen has ever really repeated an album formula since he broke through. From the success of Born To Run he dialled the production down for the leaner, meaner Darkness... while Nebraska's stark, acoustic desperation was an equally far cry from the…
