MATHS TIME JOY - HEAVY ON MY MIND

Grammy nominated producer Maths Time Joy shares his latest single ‘Heavy On My Mind’ - an excellent collaboration with London three-piece RITUAL.

On the track, Tim Worthington, AKA Maths Time Joy said:I made this track several years ago and Ritual wrote to it maybe a year or two later. I remember hearing their music and being a fan and we eventually linked up to work together, but most of this track we ended up writing remotely.”

Back in August he stunned listeners with the release of ‘Real Deal’, a soulful offering laced with the immaculate dual vocals of Sinead Harrnet and J Warner. This was followed by the infectious ‘Two Steps’ feat.Kevin Garett and the blissful ‘Fall Back’ feat. Matt Woods.

Packed with emotion, ‘Heavy On My Mind’ is a great example of merging electronic production seamlessly into neo-soul. Relaxing but though provoking, it is chilled music with substance. Mellow.

Whitstable DnB star Harriet Jaxxon has collaborated with explosive female MC Tali for new track ‘What We Gonna Do’.

An initial soft approach builds and builds with the help of the hook line ‘What We Gonna Do?’ spiked by fizzing electrics and blowing bass into a crushing crescendo. An era and genre spanning single, there is a bit of everything that fans of the star’s signature DnB style will love. Captivating.

Like a conveyor belt of joyfulness, Folkestone’s indie pop soloist Nick Harrison, AKA CHERITON, has released a beautifully crafted article of happiness.

Reeling off major pieces of music, CHERITON, has already racked up releases such as the seriously-well-received EP ‘Parallel’ (released in July 2020) and the more recent ‘So In Love’ with friend and producer Andy Hall Hall. Now, with ‘My Reverie’, he is lost in his own pleasant daydreams, and this guy knows how to make you feel good armed with a serene melody and catchy chorus. Joyous.

Benenden singer SHELLS has collaborated with a duo of monsterous House acts in creation of new track ‘Love Like You’.

Dutch pair Redondo, known for their fresh tech-house sound, and up-and-coming DJ Producer Voost have cocktailed their skills to create a track dripping in club nights, heaving dancefloors and all hands aloft.

As always Shells, lends her outrageous vocal talent over a piano core and alluring drumbeat. These sirens of summer sound are calling us to the floor. Elevating.
