Yumi And The Weather - Be Your Lover
Taken from Yumi And The Weather's latest album It's All In My Head, Be Your Lover will sweep you away in a hauntingly atmospheric storm of alternative-rock melodies, and highly addictive hypnotic vocals that overflow with contagious sexual energy.
Yumi And The Weather confides: "We are sexual creatures and it's been suppressed through either some religions, society, and even ourselves because of confidence or/and lack of opportunities. This song is inspired by the beautiful and comfortable sexual encounters I had, and is a playful expression to represent these moments.”

The Fair Attempts - Dark Star
Darkwave at its finest. Dark Star by Finnish industrial rock musician The Fair Attempts - the moniker of Friendly Timo- is an ode to the negative thoughts we store in the corners of our minds, and rise to the surface poisoning us. Haunting synths and piano outbursts wrapped in a veil o dark, heavy vocals whispering to you "your thoughts are killing you".
Three minutes burst of pure awesomeness.
