Hey guys. You probably noticed we haven’t posted in a while. That’s kind of a bummer. There’s been some things going on in the background that has kept us from doing this blog justice, mostly concerning obligations and real work and real-life responsibility. It’s a new year though, and I am committed to posting several times a week at the very least. I hope you stayed around, and enjoy our journey into the future, because we still have so much amazing music to share with you. Let’s get it started today with this awesome track from Levant called “Time to Shine.”

Levant- “Time to Shine”

This project is really cool. Levant wrote and arranged all the songs on this project, but then had different people come into the studio to play/sing the songs.  This track features JJ Jackson from The Bastard Sons and is the closing track on the album, Beneath rubble, run rivers red, which can be found on all your major music providers. I really love how this song feels like a taste of something new and something old. It has some moments that sound a lot like mid 00s indie, and even some tinges of grunge, but it’s also something completely new and fresh. The thing I think that stands out the most to me in this song is the creative use of the sample, and the transitions between piano and low end instrumentation.
