Let’s get one thing straight, Televised Mind isn’t your run-of-the-mill, cookie-cutter band. They’re a musical force to be reckoned with, and their fearless approach to creativity is a refreshing slap in the face of the mundane. Ste Walker and his crew have joined forces like a league of musical superheroes, and the result is a sound that blends genres with the audacity of a rock ‘n’ roll Molotov cocktail.
The upcoming single ‘Masks’ is a raw, unapologetic exploration of identity and illusion. In a world where societal pressure and the pursuit of ‘perfection’ have us all wearing invisible masks, Televised Mind rips them off with a sonic recklessness that’s as liberating as it is intense. Armed with a unique blend of ‘steel-plated post-punk,’ punk, indie, and alternative rock, Televised Mind isn’t here to play nice. They’ll hit you hard, and you’ll love every bruise they leave.
So, ‘Masks’ is a call to action, a rebellion against conformity, and a brutal reminder that we are all, in one way or another, wearing masks. Get ready, because Televised Mind is about to leave their indelible mark on 2023, and it’s going to be glorious. Coming out on October on 27th!
And while you wait for the new single, enjoy the previous two releases:
RBLN, an electronic music producer, has released his captivating collection of tracks titled “STARRY EYED.” Within these 8 tracks, he assembles landscapes of bright waves of electronic sound, dance rhythms, dark harmonies, and tense textured motifs. “STARRY EYED” is a compilation of remarkable tracks that birth a story and immerse you in RBLN’s musical world. It’s as if RBLN creates a cosmos of enticing and textured motifs with a touch of dark waves and sensual rhythms.
RBLN begins the dive into the album’s journey with the title track, “STARRY EYED.” This slow composition features a seductive, enticing booming rhythm, soft synth pads, and deep vocals. Meanwhile, in the track “FOUL,” it seems to adhere to a predetermined rhyme and motif, and the unique and rhythmic vocals immediately establish the tempo. A subtle experimental element adds a touch of metallic flavor to the sound of “FOUL.” I felt as though I had entered a cyberpunk world where it’s always raining. Neon lights in the darkness, a hint of dystopia, and the promise of an unforgettable party make this album exceptional.
The perfect electro-synth experiment in the track “DO YOU FEEL IT?” is truly captivating. The ethereal vocals induce a hypnotic feeling, while the slowly unfolding rhythm immediately plunges you into the depths of space or the strangest of evenings. The track “AFTER MIDNIGHT” kickstarts the perfect dance night. Its danceable rhythm, resonant echo, and synth pads, tender like an embrace, give the track a special romantic wave. Before the listener’s eyes, the most beautiful love story on the dance floor unfolds. Perfectly done.
I’d like to highlight the tracks “CHASE SCENE” and “SILENCE.” In “CHASE SCENE,” the musician reaches the highest levels of sound craftsmanship. It’s here that the artist’s unique style, finely tuned to the smallest details, shines through. You’ll want to close your eyes and fully immerse yourself in the stylish and trendy dance. The album concludes with “SILENCE.” The gentle ambient beginning creates a sense of immersion into the heart of electronic music, while the experimental rhythm takes you deep into the artist’s creative core. This track is a true gem on the compilation, as it combines all the best elements of RBLN’s music with enticing musical patterns and textured arrangement.
This album collection truly brings a fresh sound to the electronic music landscape. RBLN skillfully merges vibrant dance beats with a unique dark sound, creating an unparalleled atmosphere. RBLN has a unique talent for creating music that sparks a revolution, changes musical standards, and lingers in memory for a long time.
So, hello RBLN! When I first heard your single “Empty Head,” to be honest, I listened to it for a long time, and the melody stayed with me. Even after some time has passed, without replaying the track, I can still hum that tune. And now, listening to your new release, I feel like I’ll be reminiscing and replaying it for months once again. I’m truly impressed and thoroughly enjoying your mysterious and distinctive sound. It was outstanding!
Friends, you can’t imagine how mesmerized I am by Chealen’s new single ‘Italian Stars’! It’s like I’ve stepped into a colorful cartoon movie where everything comes to life and becomes more vibrant. This song is a real journey into the past, and I feel like the heroine of my own movie.
The acoustic piano ballad is like a gentle musical embrace. The piano plays so tenderly, as if touching every strand of hair on my head. And the lyrics… They’re like keys to my heart, opening all the drawers of memories.
And here’s the kicker – Chealen penned this song over four years ago, yet it’s still as vibrant and relevant as ever! It goes to show that true art doesn’t just withstand the test of time;. It thrives and evolves, becoming even more spellbinding as it ages.
So, if you want to immerse yourself in an atmosphere of lightness and joy, if you want to feel that magic that music brings, then this track is the one for you! I listened to it, and it was simply fantastic!
We’ve wrapped up our summer chart, and it was a blast! Our amazing listeners had the chance to vote for their favorite summer tracks, and guess what? The hands-down winner for the summer of 2023 was “Flight at the End” by the incredibly talented Matt Warren. We caught up with Matt to chat about his feelings regarding the chart and to dive into his musical journey. So, let’s get cozy and dive right in!
Hello Matt! Congratulations on the success of your song “Flight at the End” on the chart. First place is truly impressive, and it’s a great honor and joy to feel the support of your loyal listeners. Can you share your feelings and impressions of being at the top of the chart?
Thank you! Obviously, I’m really pleased with first place and that people took the time to cast a vote for me. ‘Flight’ is the first single from my upcoming album, ‘Excited to Die’, which sees a change in direction for me. My previous stuff has been pretty mellow in style and always cast an ear towards harmonies, hooks and singles. But, with the new songs they have all come as part of an album that was written chronologically with a view to being an actual ‘album’ and not a collection of singles. Definitely a more old school approach. If the singles weren’t there then I wasn’t going to worry about it. But, feedback so far has led me to believe that there may be a couple of them so it worked out well. And, ‘Flight’ sneaking in with first place has helped me get more confidence in the project. So, thank you, I’m chuffed.
Please delve into the story behind the creation of “Flight at the End.” What inspired you to create this song, and how did the creative process unfold?
‘Flight at the End’ started with a guitar riff I had kicking about for a few months. I’d never really been able to settle on where to use it no matter what I did. But, after writing the first three tracks for ‘Excited to Die’ I knew I needed something to up the ante a bit and lift the energy. The riff came back to mind and so I started there. Lyrically, the song follows on from the concept tied into the album as whole and explores conspiracy theories and the cyclical damage caused by paranoia and mistrust and how these destructive forces can lead to our ultimate downfall. Light-hearted stuff obviously…
Did you ever anticipate that your song would receive such an enthusiastic response and support?
No, I really didn’t. As I say, taking a tentative step into the psych rock genre is new to me so I had no idea if there would be any support at all – or, if I was even doing it right. But, throughout the whole process I kept asking the question, ‘do I like this?’ – if the answer was yes then I carried on and saw it through. So, whilst it felt like the project was done for me, and me alone, it’s always nice to know that there’s some support or you’ve been able to tap into other peoples consciousnesses somehow and make a connection.
Could you share how your passion for music initially ignited and describe your journey in the music industry up to this point?
Music for me started pretty young when I was introduced to bands like The Beatles and singer / songwriters like John Denver via my parents’ tastes. When I started to explore for myself I was drawn to bands like Adam and the Ants and Culture Club – I was always drawn to the more flamboyant and theatrical artists. Obviously, when I discovered rock I was like a kid in a sweet shop and massively embraced bands like Twisted Sister, Kiss and artists like Alice Cooper and David Bowie. I got my first guitar at 16 and whilst it was fun to learn other people’s songs I was always fascinated by being able to write my own. I stuck with music from that point and went on to study contemporary music and recording at both college and university. I’ve worked in loads of bands over the years and we’ve had some really nice ‘wins’ including great gigs and TV appearances, but it wasn’t until Covid that I thought about starting out on my own. And, that’s where we are today. I still work in other bands, and really enjoy it, but it’s nice having an outlet for my own stuff as well – my moods, my feelings and me saying exactly what I want to say. It’s been said before, but it’s true… music is therapy.
What are your dreams and aspirations for the future?
Ooh, dreams and aspirations for the future? Well, with the new album ‘Excited to Die’ coming out November 1st I’d love for it to be well received and be picked up for a distribution deal of some kind. I can’t see it happening tbh but, you did ask about dreams lol! It’d also be pretty cool to get on some kind of tour and be able to put a live band together to showcase the songs from this album because I’d be really excited myself to be able to get out and do them face to face with an audience. Other than that, I want to carry on with what this album has started and experiment with different styles and choices and push myself into different areas both musically and thematically.
Lastly, what advice would you offer to your fellow musicians?
Ah, I’m in no position to offer advice to anyone. But, what I did learn recently that I’ve found helpful is to stop writing with a view to what other people are going to think, or, if they will like what I’m writing. I enjoy the process, the songs and the freedom of just being able to write for me. As I mentioned before, if anyone else comes along for the journey and likes it too… amazing! But, if they don’t, at least you’ve done something that’s yours and it’s something you meant. To be honest, most other musicians probably know this already but it’s something that re-aligned me and put me back in the place where I wanted to be musically and personally.
When I listen to the song ‘Coffee’ by Chealen, it feels like my soul turns into a wisp of steam above a cup of fragrant coffee. This music invites you to a morning conversation with yourself, to that quiet moment when the world around freezes, and you can savor the moment.
Hidden in this song is wisdom. It teaches us to pause and find beauty in the little things, like the aroma of coffee or musical notes. It’s not just a song; it’s a fragrant tale of how meetings and farewells, moments, and memories intertwine like a rich espresso. Chealen sings about coffee, but perhaps it’s not just a beverage. It’s a metaphor for our lives. Sometimes it’s sweet, like mocha with chocolate undertones, sometimes bitter, like black coffee without sugar. But even in the saddest moments, it sounds like that first sip of morning coffee that awakens us to a new day.
This song is a real find for those seeking not only sounds in music but true emotions. It’s like a magical key that opens doors to a world where every chord is a new adventure, every word a small philosophical puzzle. And it’s as if every guitar note is a piece of inspiration that falls into the coffee cup and turns it into a drink filled with meaning. ‘Coffee’ by Chealen is a reminder that even the most mundane moment can become extraordinary if we learn to see the beauty in it.
