Big Dreams Die Hard, a song by Y.A.S on Spotify

We love this new track from Y.A.S 'Big Dreams Die Hard'

February 08, 2019 by Gems Secrets in Dark, Electronic, Pop

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

London based artist, Y.A.S, released a catchy new song the other day titled ‘Big Dreams Die Hard’. The upbeat electronic inspired pop track carries a very unique and original sounding vocal style. It’s fun, it’s catchy, and it’s wildly addictive.

Her bubbly personality is soaked in a dark and vibrant energy throughout the instrumental that not only demands your attention but will have you listening over and over again. If you like what you hear, don’t forget to connect with Y.A.S online to stay up to date and enjoy!

WHAT THE ARTIST HAS TO SAY:

"Big dreams die hard is about reaching a crossroads on the road to my dreams. Do I give up? Or one more shot? It deals with the painful questions I ask myself almost every day on this journey. Am I just not good enough? Is it not on the cards for me? This song mourns the innocence and beauty of the dream, after the reality of the industry, the criticism, the pressure, the self doubt, the rejection, the comparison, and the time running out has chipped and chipped away at it."

The San Clemente based artist is gearing up to release her debut EP this year and upon hearing ‘Min’t’ for the first time, you can definitely consider us a fan.

WHAT THE ARTIST HAS TO SAY:

“Mint is a song about drowning your sorrows and reminiscing on the past. It captures the feeling of being in a dark place and instead of choosing to confront your reality, choosing to stay in this temporary fix for as long as possible, knowing very well it will cost you in the future. It is a song about wishing to go back to the past and attempting to ignore your reality, which must eventually be confronted.”

Close Enough, a song by Falcon Punch, Megana on Spotify

Stream Falcon Punch's latest 'Close Enough' here 🎶

February 04, 2019 by Gems Secrets in Electronic, Pop

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

Falcon Punch released a brand new track over the weekend and upon hearing it for the first time we were immediately hooked by its upbeat charm. Close Enough’ is undeniably catchy and we love the vocal work with this particular track. Falcon not only outdid himself with the production, but this might just be some of the producers best work yet. Give it a listen and let us know what you think and don’t forget to subscribe! Enjoy.

WHAT THE ARTIST HAS TO SAY:

“I wrote the bones of the instrumental of this track early in the summer of 2018 while I was working on my first single with Megana, titled "Amour". After recording "Amour" I knew that Megana's voice would work perfectly on this song as well. Megana then took the first stab at writing the lyrics and root vocal melody. She wrote the lyrics of “close enough” as a confession to a new relationship. The story stands in as a warning coming from a person still in love with someone else, while using others to fill the loneliness in the meantime.”

Man Down, a song by Reece on Spotify

Reece releases new EP 'I'm Not Sure Yet', here's our favorite:

February 03, 2019 by Gems Secrets in R&B

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

Reece released his new EP Friday and we’ve had it on repeat all weekend long. Picking a favorite wasn’t easy but if we absolutely had to… ‘Man Down’ comes to mind almost immediately due to Reece’s unique vocal style with this particular track. Blended with a more upbeat melodic instrumental, ‘Man Down’ is not only the perfect track for dancing around, it’s great to kick back and relax to.

However, we recommend you listen to the entire EP from front to back to get the full experience of Reece and how he’s able to not only relax the mind, but deliver an all-out incredible experience that you can’t forget. It’ll take like… 15 minutes of your time and it’s 100% worth it.

Enjoy!
