The #1 blog for music that fits in film, games, & shows. Curating cinematic sounds, soundtracks, and more.
Jane N’ The Jungle have never been subtle. The Phoenix duo: Jordan White on vocals, Brian Dellis on guitar, have built their sound around intensity, and their latest single “Parasite” keeps the pressure on. Produced by Cameron Mizell (Machine Gun Kelly, Avril Lavigne), the track starts low and slow. A dark synth pad and distant…
Leather Laces is a four-piece electronic project out of Italy with a fixation on sonic aggression and rhythm as a weapon. Their lineup isn’t built around traditional band roles. Instead, each member handles a distinct piece of the machine: rhythm programming, analog saturation, modulation, and structural dynamics. Their debut Rocket Launcher made it clear this…
Richard Green has a habit of making classical compositions feel immediate. Based between Milan and London, he’s spent the last few years building a neoclassical trilogy – composed at home, recorded in Italy, and performed by some of the country’s best players. “A Story,” featuring Irene Veneziano on piano and Archimia on strings, is the…
Vineetha Menon grew up between Wales and India, in a home where kirtan wasn’t just music—it was the atmosphere. Her grandfather opened the doors to saints and traveling musicians, and her earliest memories include devotional singing and quiet tears she couldn’t explain. She now lives in Oceanside, California, where she runs a yoga studio and…
Katy Jarzebowski has spent the last decade scoring everything from documentaries to ballets, and her debut album FEATHERS pulls directly from that experience. Originally written for a pandemic-era ballet, the six tracks now stand alone as a kind of experimental suite—one that blends orchestral tools with sound design tricks and a willingness to let weird…
Karen Salicath Jamali didn’t set out to become a composer. Her music arrived unannounced – after a near-death experience in 2012 left her changed, she began to play piano despite having no formal training. Since then, she’s recorded thousands of pieces, performed at Carnegie Hall, and built a unique body of work that sits somewhere…
Kirsten Hildegard is a singer-songwriter from New York, now living in Copenhagen. With a background in philosophical theology from Yale and a deep connection to Danish myth, her work pulls more from literature and memory than pop convention. Her debut single, Still the Waves, arrives as a quietly personal track, shaped as much by grief…
Impulse Nine is the solo project of Tucson-based guitarist and designer Steve, who spent over two decades writing demos before finishing what he now calls the most important thing he’s ever made. NOTHING IS EASY is his debut album, but it doesn’t feel like a debut. It plays like closure. The album was built across…
Some music just feels ready for film. Not because it’s dramatic or overproduced, but because it gives scenes space to breathe. This month’s picks don’t sound alike, but they all carry something that fits into a visual world: Some are quiet, some are rhythmic, some feel a bit off on purpose. But none of them…
Stray Blue have always moved at their own pace. The Greek trio, formed in Chania in the early 2000s, built their following on small stages, heartfelt performances, and songs that leaned more on sincerity than style. Even after a long break from live shows, their sound remains focused on connection. This new two-track release: An…
