THEGUUDS// Ginga Soul, KADOLEAF, Tyler Langley, Native Son and more
Ginga Soul - “Nostalgia”
Miami based neo-soul artist Ginga Soul recently dropped a six-track EP titled On My Mind. The project paints a warm and fuzzy feeling about discovering love and the lustful feelings that come along with it. “Nostalgia” featuring Näylon is one of the few stand out tracks from Soul’s musical offering. Their voices compliment each other perfectly and the melodies are comforting.
KADOLEAF - “Berlin”
VA songwriter/producer KADOLEAF dropped his latest single “Berlin.” Building off the same sonic textures from his EP Popmonstre released last July. KADOLEAF blur the lines between pop and alt R&B in the most harmonious way. His relentless effort of not falling victim to the current popular sounds of today is prevalent. “Berlin” feels like a montage of good and bad moments during a vacation with a significant other. The drums create the feeling of being on-the-go while, the subtle Mac Demarco-ish strings keep you grounded for the adventure. KADOLEAF is constantly experimenting with sounds which makes it impossible to predict which direction he’ll go next.
Tyler Langley - “ROCKFORD”
R&B singer Tyler Langley returns with her follow up project Almost There. The 20-min body of work consists of memorable melodies and smothering 808s that make you sink into Langley’s benign voice. “ROCKFORD” is one of the many tracks that highlights Langley’s growth as a vocalist since her 2020 album Return to Saturn. With a slower tempo, Langley is given the space to interchange melodies and rhyme patterns with fluency.
Native Son - “Ctrl Freak”
NY based artist Native Son aka Ano Chrispin returns with his first single “Ctrl Freak,” which would be featured on his upcoming EP slated to drop next year. This track exudes punk ; undiluted punk in the most purest delivery. Son’s ability to tap into contemporary and modern post rock is second to none. The production is chaotic and intense; feels like one of those cool car chase scenes from a 70’s film.
