Stealth bit of musical production coming in from Lucas Stern here out of New York. The track goes by the name of Watashitoisshoni, according to Google translate at least, which is said to say With Me. A nice piano driven piece of recording, with elegant electronic layers, creating a sort of Viennese coffee house meets Wes Anderson type of vibe. Smooth.
Lush pop vibes celebrating the social media powered rebirth of the very analog 90s coming in by way of Sweden’s Majro. Talk is the first single off her upcoming EP that will be out in May and is nothing less than a grand pop anthem and booming intro to the life and times of Majro.
The EP is scheduled to arrive five songs strong, each evolving around a very personal history of Majro, and will be produced by the talented Joakim Buddee of Foreverandever-fame, creating a Tim-Burton-type vibe of melancholy and beautiful emotions. Talk is attached below, for the full electro pop experience.

Sinah, here enjoying the remoteness of the Portuguese countryside, served another grand anthem last month, paving the way to her second solo album due later this year. None Of Us is a delicately produced piece recording, neatly layering deep synths, pounding drums and her distinct, cool voice and vocals.
It is being reported that what you hear was put together from self recorded drum samples of a huge fan she found in an abandoned barn, just half way between Porto and Lisbon. Talk about taking life by its horns. Don’t miss her rad cover of Frank Ocean’s Ivy, too.

A grand pop rock banger of a track coming in by way of abbrev. champs and social media connoisseurs PBSM here out of Copenhagen. Rainbow Girl is their latest Great American Dream piece of songwriting, and comes with a slick video by South Korean longboarder and internet sensation Jin, both exhibits attached below.
The track couldn’t sport a more liberal and open frame of mind and is out now via the infamous Møs Møs recording studios, again out of ever so charming Copenhagen. From Denmark to Seoul, right on the spot.
The excited group of people above goes by the stage name of Mayes, with operations run out of Germany’s second city, Hamburg. The team has been at it for some time, after forming around singer Sam Mayes, and produced a rather enlightening line of singles and videos last year. Icing is their latest exhibit of work, and neatly showcases their divine talent for driving melodies and precise riffs, all carried by Sam’s confiding vocals. Hit play.
Now, 2019 will be the year of good vibes and good vibes only and will see them tour the greater plains of the Teutonic lands, with Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Leipzig, Berlin, Hamburg and more on the ticket in May of all months. Find the dates nicely listed here. Reason enough for the Team Poule to reach out and see what the fine people of Mayes are all about.
