London based singer, Hugo Valentine is here to warm your heart on this Valentine’s day with his new single, ‘All I Want’. This the fourth single from the artist. The fun upbeat track is perfect for this holiday. It reminds me of some old Elton John type music. It’s would be an amazing single at a festival, I can just imagine the audience rocking back and forth to this. The first thing that hooked me was the vibrant cover art, it’s beautiful. Who’s the photographer? The track hooked me because of the beautiful vocals that feel like a summer day and the nice pop/rock instrumental that follows.
Growing up with an assorted musical upbringing, Hugo began taking piano lessons in his London home after his Grandmother bought him his first Piano. At the age of 10, Hugo was admitted into the Royal College of Music junior department and remained there for four years where he was trained in classical music and, above all, the piano.
Following the success of his recent single ‘Memories’, having streamed over 165,000 times since its release in December. Having played a number of festivals and shows with his band in 2019 including Camp Bestival, Chris Evans’ Carfest and headline shows at 229 The Venue and Paper Dress Vintage in London, Hugo is well prepared for a year packed full of all things music and is tipped for a truly successful year already, with no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
Talking about this upcoming release, Hugo honestly and openly discusses the inspiration for ‘All I Want’: “This is the closest thing to a love song I’ve written to date, but rather than being about any one person, in particular, this song is simply a call to and for love. The lyrics harbor a slightly deeper meaning, nodding towards the loneliness among today’s youth as a result of isolation through technology and social media. Whilst we live in an age of heightened communication and technology, this ironically pushes people further apart on a human level as they tend to rely more and more on electronic connections and engagement rather than physical and human encounters – “I’m hoping for something real to find.” This often makes it harder to find ways of connecting in person. ‘All I Want’ is an understanding of this idea, which is manifested simply, as a very real and human desire for Love, in its truest form.”
I think being honest about just wanting love is a big thing because not everyone can admit it and for him to be that vulnerable is amazing. I commend him and I can’t wait to hear more.

Minneapolis producer-songwriter Eile Weile teams up with Alt-Hip-Pop artist TeawhYB to showcase a different kind of blend that includes synth-pop and 80s R&B. The track includes soft-spoken vocals over an early 2000’s boy band kind of melody during the chorus. The track definitely has the potential for an automatic hit and its super catchy. It’s romantic and has the ability to be great with chroagraphy. I can’t wait to see the visual for this.
“Sand” will be made available on all streaming platforms and digital download stores on December 13th.

Kahnin has released a new single about his journey titled, ‘Brand New Start.’ The track fuses old school R&B with modern day country melodies to give that nostalgia feel you love. It really feels good to the soul when hearing this kind of music in my opinion, very warm tones vocal wise and sleek production. He spoke briefly on the track, “It is a song written about struggles with alcoholism and the crushing affect it has on the loved ones that surround the addict. It’s also a song that let’s the listener know there is a light in the darkness if they choose to see it. Kahnin is the artist name for Gudmundur J Gudmundsson who is based out of Keflavik, Iceland. I love inspiring music where the artist puts its story out there to inspire purgers. You can never go wrong with that. Make sure to add this hit to your playlist.

British producer, songwriter and guitarist Beau Diako follows debut single “Buttermilk” and sophomore offering “Flutter ft, Raelee Nikole with his third and final single “Flamingo” ft. Jordan Rakei. The track consist of smooth vocals and instrumental that makes you wanna dance all day.
“Flamingo is probably the closest I can get to making a pop song. It was written quite a few years ago and was one of the first full tracks I made and produced. I was still in a zone of trying to make music that was bright and accessible after a previous project, and wanted something that people could move to. It was fun to make some hectic guitar layers sound simple and light whilst using weird foley sounds to replace drums to go along with the tropical imagery I had for the song.
A few months later I sent this track to my friend Jordan Rakei after we had been writing for his album Origin, and he came back with the perfect vocal.” – Beau Diako
“It’s always great working with Beau. He’s always been the secret piece to a lot of other people’s music, and it’s so good to jump on his debut release! It’s his time to shine!”- Jordan Rakei
The self-taught musician takes influences from a diverse range of artists such as Radiohead, Sufjan Stevens, James Blake, Joanna Newsom, while exploring a range of genres- from indie, jazz, folk, electronic and soul music – all which is evident in his genre-defying sound.
