More work from Owen with Montreal-native, The Franklin Electric. Owen provided mixing services and also co-produced this new track with Ben Cramer (Old Sea Brigade) and Jon Matte from the band.
Read MoreOwen Lewis Vs Vale
I’ll be honest, I know very little about Irish enigma, Vale. What I will say is that his debut effort, produced and mixed Transatlantically by Owen Lewis is a pretty epic piece of synth work. It’s cinematic and pop at the same time, channelling all the best bits of artists like John Grant and the Naked & Famous. Really excited for what’s coming next from this guy.
Read MoreSimon Byrt Vs Babeheaven
Hoorah! Babeheaven’s long awaited debut LP is nearly here. In the meantime, check out their new single Craziest Things, which features additional production from synthmaster general, Mr Simon Byrt.
Read MoreOwen Lewis Vs Jon Reynolds
Jon Reynolds & The Aches continue their rise through 2020 with their new single, Imogene. I’ve spoken a lot about Jon’s talents previously, but this is another smart piece of smart Americana, engineered and mixed by Owen Lewis.
Read MoreSt£fan Vs push baby
This one’s been sat in the vaults for a minute. After working together on last year’s Woah, EP, St£fan and push baby went into the studio over Christmas 2019 to go and make a follow up EP.
Read MoreSimon Byrt Vs Marie Naffah
Some sun drenched gorgeousness from the duo of Marie Naffah and Simon Byrt.
Si’s produced Marie’s glorious new single, California, a sultry, golden vocalled paean to the Golden State. You can practically taste the oaky chardonnay and legal weed coming off this one.
Read MoreHenry Brill Vs Jack Garratt
More skeewiff joy from Mr Jack Garratt today, as he releases the ‘reworks’ portion of his record Love, Death and Dancing. Jack premiered the new versions last night on a live DJ set, and they’re ready to go on streaming services today.
Read MoreAl Groves Vs Bedside Manners
I’ve been a big fan of Merseyside punk/indie scuzz-merchants Bedside Manners since their single My People crossed my desk at the end of last year. It’s big, anthemic, snarling indie, and I’m 100% here for it.
Read MoreHenry Brill Vs Oklou
Oklou is the performing moniker of French producer, songwriter and vocalist Marylou Mayniel. Recently signed to the newly formed TaP Records, she makes visceral and thoroughly modern (even futuristic) pop for fans of Charli XCX, A.G. Cook and Shygirl.
Read MorePhil Gornell Vs Heart of Gold
Newcomer to the Friends Vs Music stable Phil Gornell has co-written, produced and mixed the track Left Town from the brand new EP, Gold by 80s flecked pop outfit Heart of Gold.
Read MoreDarren Lawson Vs Khartoum
Named after the decapitated racehorse from the Godfather (explicitly not the capital city of Sudan), Khartoum are a very exciting new rock ’n’ roll band. They’ve already played Glastonbury, Electric Picnic Festival and the god damn Louvre in Paris. They’ve even had still-prancing medical marvel Mick Jagger down the front of some of their shows. I don’t really like the Rolling Stones very much, but he must surely know something to have sold that many records.
Read MoreSean Oakley Vs Will Barradale
We’re very excited by 20 year old London newcomer, Will Barradale. For fans of James Blake, Years and Years and Hot Chip, his new single Endless Fun comes out today. Produced, programmed and mixed by Sean Oakley, it’s a brilliant piece of weird pop, talking about “yearning for a connection and finding love in the face of hopelessness.”
Read MoreRocky O’Reilly Vs The Clockworks
This one’s loads of fun. The Clockworks are an amazing new band from Loughrea in County Galway, recently signed to Creation23, the new label venture from Alan McGee. Can I Speak To A Manager is a snarling piece of punk, expertly mixed by Belfast’s own Rocky O’Reilly, and has already been picking up love at DSPs and on national radio.
Read MoreOwen Lewis & Henry Brill Vs Thunder Lily
Thunder Lily is the brainchild of Nashville-based synth-wunderkind Steven Mullan; a musical headtrip for fans of Talking Heads, the Flaming Lips and classic science fiction. Steven’s prodigious musical output has seen five singles and an EP released this year.
Read MoreHenry Brill Vs The Northern Belle
Doing his part for Nashville/Oslo relations, Henry Brill’s proud to have two more of his co-writes on the brand new album from Norwegian country outfit the Northern Belle. We Wither, We Bloom is the band’s third studio record, and features two Brill co-compositions in Remember It and Two Minds. The album’s out right now on the fantastically monikered Norwegian independent, Die With Your Boots On Records.
Read MoreHenry Brill Vs Angel Snow
Handed In My Halo is the brand new single from Nashville’s Angel Snow. There’s not much more to say than it’s a beautiful, heartwrenching song; co-written by Henry Brill, it’s been a favourite demo for a long time and it’s amazing that it’s now out in the big wide world.
Read MoreDarren Lawson Vs Lemonteeth
David Arthur & Matt Kern form brand new duo Lemonteeth, whose debut single Forgive Me Father is out today through our pals at Young Poet Records. Mixed by Darren Lawson, it’s an ambitious combination of Americana flecked with indie wonkiness. Think Big Thief put through a Tame Impala filter.
Read MoreOwen Lewis Vs Old Sea Brigade & Luke Sital-Singh
Get ready for what could be your favourite EP of the year, the debut collaborative record from Luke Sital-Singh and Old Sea Brigade. Produced, mixed and engineered by Owen Lewis, All the Ways You Sing In The Dark features four tracks of beautiful, sunflecked Americana, and is out RIGHT NOW on Nettwerk.
Read MoreOwen Lewis Vs John Lingard
Owen Lewis has been back in the studio with Australia’s John Lingard, producing, engineering and mixing his new single, We’re Almost Home. Another beautiful piece of acoustic melancholia, it follows on from previous Lewis productions Howling and Ballerina.
Read MoreOwen Lewis Vs The Franklin Electric
Just Ain’t Mine is the new single from Montreal-based Quebecois indie collective, The Franklin Electric. The track was produced, engineered and mixed by Owen Lewis alongside frequent collaborator Ben Cramer, of Old Sea Brigade.
