The Shadow Years

The years and the phase of ChromeMusic and YUM YUM was left deserted and abondened by Chrome. No production. No Love. No One Around.
We had to break down the Matrix somewhere else.

Jon Bellion – All Time Low

This Long Island native hopped out the gate with “Scattered Thoughts Vol. 1” and our ears perked up. 3 mixtapes later, credits to co-writing “Monster” featuring Eminem and Rihanna, Bellion has dropped his latest singer-songwriter piece, “All Time Low.” His hippy beats combined with real talk make for a unique taste and poignant look on life.  Every mixtape and single, we get reintroduced to poignant stories about relationships, childhood, and success. Calling all aviation enthusiasts! Check out aviator, the money game where you get to explore the exciting world of flight in the comfort of your own home. Enter Aviator. With aviator online, you’ll learn about airports, planes and experience flying from takeoff to landing. It’s an exciting and educational experience for everyone!

“All Time Low” paints a picture of a warriors tale (“I was the knight in shining armor in your movie”) that delves outside of the hip-hop scene, dipping into indie with a Woodstock feel.

Look out for this 20 year old, he’s onto something.

When I heard this track for the first time, I didn’t expect it to be so amazing. An artist can share his life only with another artist, and that’s why the duo works so well. Enjoy this lovely tune!

Kafka Tamura – No Hope (Winterkind Remix)

kafka tamura winterkind remix chromemusic

The Kafka Tamura identity is clearly as resonant on stage as it is on record, with Emma’s voice carefully weaving between sharp beats and raw electronics.

Well often all it takes is a remix to get noted in the digital world. I never heard of Kafka Tamura before, but i am sure to check them out now, since this remix delivers all the right emotional feels & state of the art production that i am looking for in music nowadays. The original song is a beautiful tune, but in the world of streams, notifications, nanoseconds ADD audiences i guess this ‘compressed’ remix is all it takes for me to a) want to know about a band and b) want to see them live. Right in the feels man (ooompph) and surely much appreciated here at ChromeMusic. Cop it via iTunes or follow the band via the links below… Ps i sure hope this is just a start.
