Music Update Apr 2022

Here comes music update of April 2022. These tracks, artists and bands are the ones that captured most of our attention during the last month. We had a really good time listening to them over and over again! 🙂

Feel free to buy their music on Bandcamp if possible. That’s the best way to support artists and bands.

You can also follow their channels, say “Hi!” and share about them on your social media. Or maybe you could even think about sending over some of these tracks to your friends, colleagues and loved ones? Why not? It will probably bring some minutes of fresh joy to their daily music listening routines.

Music Update Light Songs for Lazy Sundays

Emma Alves is an independent and passion-driven artist from Vancouver, Canada. The R&B songstress delivers honey-dipped vocals that coax her listener’s full attention. Their genre-bending songs ‘Archenemy‘ and ‘Winter‘ lean into the darker side of her writing, previewing a taste of what’s to come later this year. The song “Archenemy” is produced in Tokyo, Japan. It emulates the beautiful setting of its creation through the lyrics: “Sweeter than sakura trees in the spring”.

Growing up a songwriter, Emma has always had an impressive hand in the making of their music. As a young girl, they would write whimsical songs about fairies and magic. At just 15 years old, she wrote the entirety of her debut album, ‘Every Dreamer.’ Now, Alves thrives to find magic within the studio, overseeing all aspects of the creative process.

“Katoomba” was actually the first song that we wrote for the album and, whilst we try and bring a different vibe to all of our songs, we feel that “Katoomba” really summarises the sound of ‘Giant Walker’. Lyrically, it captures the essence of how we felt at the time – trying to stay sane in the first lockdown. Funnily enough, the song was actually named after a trip to the Blue Mountains, Katoomba in Australia, as that’s where we purchased the fuzz pedal which inspired the initial riff.
