Sep
Hi and welcome everyone to this artists preview,

KJ$ – Angelic Rhymez

Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/0xdBvf2EOaryLjM5OcNbSv?si=Ai_mXJ57RWKEaXELJVOQ6Q
This is a heavily constructed track not only in its production but also in its lyrics. If you listen/or read the lyrics you’ll be able to see that the syllables count down in relation to his lyrics. For example at the start of the song my lyrics start from 13 counting down to 10. Which correlates with the song’s most angelic number 1093. The rest of the lyrics are for anyone who is willing to take the time and figure it out!
A must-hear emotive smash is what you get from KJ$ on the new song “Angelic Rhymez”. The song has so many amazing qualities to it, that it makes it tough to pick one to start. For the production, he brings a strong sound full of appeal, that builds excitement well throughout to make sure it keeps you invested.
Aside from the syllables, these lyrics have a correlation to my hometown of Bozeman, Montana, and his own personal representations. KJ$’s goal is to reach anyone willing to give him advice and build a presence on social media.
Easo – Dancin

Biography: Zae Trillz is a 22-Year-old artist that grew up in Huntsville, Alabama. During middle school, Zae Trillz spent most of his time writing poems he wrote inside of his composition notebooks. He would turn the poems he wrote into songs for fun. He started making music during high school under the Zae Trillz alias.
Being very independent, he learned to mix and master his own songs and distribute them. A few years later he released his first serious project called “Void”. He describes this project as the beginning of his story. He has an interest in educating the youth in his own way, by embracing them.
Track Info: The process of “SLUMS” is something you would consider gradual. Zae Trillz heard the beat from a producer he met sometime back. He referred to it as a classical sound. With the song SLUMS, he just wanted to paint a picture with what he was saying, while also giving a catchy vibe with the hook. The beat is something you don’t hear a lot of artists rap on.

Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/7ni8KSH1bShovpZwrh1fWU
Vacation Phase is an indie pop duo composed of renowned guitarist and producer Jimmy Messer (Awolnation, Kygo, Shawn James) and Los Angeles artist and singer Evan Robinson. Formed in early 2022, Messer and Robinson didn’t expect a new career path and a full-length album to birth from a random songwriting session, but one recording quickly became ten, and demand for more from the new duo quickly followed.
Vacation Phase’s debut single “Summer Lover” will make you fall in love again, if only for the summer. Appropriately written and recorded in sunny Venice Beach CA, this track is melting hearts and taking names. The band’s recent sold-out residency at LA hotspot, Black Rabbit Rose has the industry buzzing and fans alike.
“Summer Lover” packs you a surfboard, two bottles of red, SOLO cups, and a “just for the summer” attitude. Jammed full of undeniable vocal hooks, a sticky groove, and dreamy guitar work, “Summer Lover” is the feel-good smash of the summer. Lyrically driven by self-deprecation and “so you’re saying there’s a chance”, “Summer Lover” photographs a day on the beach perfectly bending ‘70s strings into a surf rock guitar riff. “She’s an eight, I’m a seven, I admit it” captures the conundrum in which Vacation Phase finds itself.

A new sound from Omaha artist Jr Graves, this mid-west indie/pop single is, stylistically, a reflection of origin. This inviting guitar riff and dramatic, sad lyrics embody the mid-west emo vibe with all of the things you love about the new wave of Bedroom Pop. We hope you enjoy tapping into the self-reflective tones of these vocals, and the soft instrumental put there to dry those tears.
Jr Graves Quotes: “I have so much planned in my head you know? Some place where my R&B sound blends with my love of acoustic drums and loud-ass fenders. But the first take on that journey is “Oh No” for me… for sure. Hope to sneak more of this in for myself and y’all more as we go.”
