Elaquent //// Worst Case Scenario



"Growth is about adaptation, existing in transit, and nourishing flux. It gives us a reason to move on to our next project, challenges us, and feeds our creative hunger. 

Sona Elango, as the multi-talented Elaquent, captures a catalogue of experiences and feelings that span time zones from over the better part of 2016. Elaquent has created a reflective sound weaving themes of travel and personal growth into the core of his music. Worst Case Scenario is a record with roots in Europe and Japan, inspired by moments of reflection in hostels, airports, and trains. It boasts Elaquent’s growth not only as a beat maker and producer, but as an artist, conscious of peers, music lovers, and strangers alike. He explains how “I wanted it to feel personal and conducive to who I am, but I’ll let everyone deduce what they want about each song. It’s open to interpretation.” Elaquent demonstrates that relative themes have a power that is bigger than ourselves. He manages to hit the bittersweet mark of self-reflection perfectly, reminding us that sometimes the most daunting and intimidating reflections, can secretly be moments of peace and reassurance. 

“...going on 30, no longer feeling like you're invincible, everyone is getting married and living a completely different kind of life. I don’t want to get old, wondering whether I did everything in life that I wanted to do. This album, Worst Case Scenario, it’s the idea that if all else fails, I’ll know that at least I was able to do all these amazing things in my life”. 

Worst Case Scenario is ultimately a public chapter in Elaquent’s life, embodying an unhurried yet vibrant form of personal storytelling. “It’s a soulful and colourful record” he says. “I was in a different mindset; it was a challenge to myself. I wanted to expand on previous concepts, and make a record that is about doing things not just to do them, but because it makes sense”. Unabashedly human, and eager to make it count, Elaquent is a reminder to us all that we’re here for a good time, not a long time."

DARKER THAN WAX //// 'SUMMER JAMS' | Complex UK premiere



'SUMMER JAMS'
> Premiere on Complex UK : bit.ly/2bJ2sGF
> 10% Merch special : www.darkerthanwax.com
> Download Entire compilation : bit.ly/2bIDW8u
Summer is almost over, so we thought it would be nice to drop a mini compilation for our global family. It's been a period of solid growth at DTW, and we simply wanted to share more positive vibes with you all. We called upon 4 of our artists from different corners of the globe - @10a (NZ), @kayloo-sound(France), soundcloud.com/neguim_beats(Brazil) and @silo-beats (Belgium) for this project, and they have blessed us with varying interpretations. DTW co-founder @kayevman jumps in on a EWI collaboration with Neguim on 'Just Feel', adding that extra dimension to the sounds.
'Summer Jams' is about taking your time and remembering how to breathe, as opposed to filling up your routine all at once. It's pretty hectic sometimes with too much noise going on, and it's important to slow things down and recalibrate once again.
Also, for those who might be keen on buying some of our merch pieces, we are giving a 10% discount on all orders above 50 USD. Use the code : WEMOVE upon checkout and it's all smiles after.

10th Letter //// ESCAPE FROM ATL



"This album is dedicated to the city that i have called home for some time now. This album is an ode to the films of John Carpenter that raised me and a vision that still inspires me to this day. This album is really a soundtrack to a blockbuster about a post nuclear city filled with cyber punks, mutant motorcycle gangs and warlords that doesn't exist in this physical world. I hope you enjoy."

Waking Astronomer //// Bottles



"Although newcomers, the collective, which includes the talents of multi-instrumentalist/composer Alexa Lima, vocalist (and Marvel/DC Comics illustrator) Afua Richardson, and producer Deku, joined forces to create one of the more exhilarating experimental pop groups to surface in the Atlanta music scene in years.

The electronic-jazz and soul instrumentations embellished through this cut are layered seamlessly with lead singer Afua’s meditative vocals and catchy wordplay to gives us a unique, yet mesmerizing soundscape. Gaining a formidable following through their live shows over the past few years, the trio is set to release their first full project via Psych Army Intergalactic Records on February 5th.

The record will be available on all major digital music retailers and streaming services, and the cassette will be available on the Psych Army bandcamp. The album will also be out in comic bookform sometime after the initial release.
Waking Astronomer is solidifying themselves within the industry and doing it their own innovative way. Witness it all for yourself as you tune into “Bottles” below."
