The Sinner Inside

The Flight's title track from their forthcoming EP, The Sinner Inside (set for release May 12th), is tragically gorgeous with its soft strings which lend their sound to a pretty melody, an achingly prominent rhythm, and Alana Stewart's rich vocals wrapping up deliciously articulate lyrics like "I see my whole life was symptomatic, commonly tragic", "all my women, thinking that you're one in a million, you can be ambitious, long as you ain't vicious", and "'atta way, 'atta way, that's the way to treat a girl, that's the way to change the world, change my world".

A composition this emotional deserves to be fallen for, so check out the track below and follow the links to find out more about the London based production duo.

Sweet Ophelia

L.A. based artist Zella Day's single offers up swelling melodies, sultry vocals, and a heavy rhythm that sucks into the track within seconds. 

With its soft allusions to Hamlet's naive Ophelia (who placed such an emphasis on the love of one man) intermixing gorgeously with Day's personal feelings, the song's power lies not only in its lyrics (whose opening verse states "leave me now you're too young girl, cherry pie with your gold curls, growing up like a grapevine, wrapped around you in due time" with amazing aplomb) but also in a composition which proudly displays a wide range of instrumentation, including the gorgeous fusion of low trumpets holding steady over a pretty, wandering piano melody.

We Won't Go Home

The Colourist released their video for their single "We Won't Go Home" from their forthcoming self-titled debut album (due for release tomorrow) and it's just as youthfully exuberant as the song itself. 

Hazy images and colorful tints laid over intermingling shots of a party and the band's performance gives the video a laid-back vibe which mimics that perfectly fun melody and upbeat rhythm with ease while the back and forth dialogue of the pre-chorus ("I said 'Hey, where are you going?'" "Well I don't know but truly you can see we're moving way too slow") gives the track a fresh feel and makes it impossible to not sing along.

Check out the new video below and get the single now when you pre-order The Colourist on iTunes.

Chandelier

Sia released her single "Chandelier" and everything from the heavy beat which opens the song and the pulsating and electrifying melody that throws itself in just in time for that chorus to the emotionally wrought verses which state "party girls don't get hurt, can't feel anything, when will I learn? I push it down, push it down" and "I'm the one 'for a good time call', phone's blowin' up, they're ringin' my doorbell, I feel the love, feel the love" are gut-wrenchingly heartfelt and open.

The haunting beat and soft melody culminate in an emotional chorus which is impossible to ignore as Sia's flawless vocals beg "help me, I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down, won't open my eyes, keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight". Check out Sia's latest single below and grab it from iTunes now.
