Listening to the music of American trumpeter and composer Sam Hankins, we completely relax and enter that unforgettable state of light excitement. His compositions are the perfect place for our attention during a walk through an unknown city, contemplation through binoculars on a yacht or cruise liner, or a romantic meeting in a cozy cafe. Recently, his new single 'IT'S OKAY' was released, which absorbed the best formula that carries pop jazz.

The intro is called 'Once There'. Extremely space track that invites us to travel between the stars and planets, between abandoned stations and space debris. We go to a new galaxy created by the California band Blackout Transmission. The name of that outer space is 'Sparse Illumination'.

Classics are immortal. Trip-hop has always been somewhere close, although it has always remained an alternative element. Amelie Swann is an artist from Philadelphia who builds her music on the trip-hop stem. Her debut EP 'Dirty Looks' was released on April 9 and has already attracted the attention of music lovers and fans of alternative genres of modern music.

San Francisco as the capital of hippies in the 60's rightly became a follower of this great legacy. A wave of new rock n roll that included shoegaze and modern psychedelic rock flooded the city at the turn of the new millennium.

In spirit - indie, in atmosphere - psychedelic rock, and in performance - bedroom pop. Other labels can also be pasted to the single 'Forsythia' from the musical duo La Palma, but at the first listening one thing becomes clear - the musicians are on the right track.

Michael Wilson is one man band. The talented multi-instrumentalist and singer from Portland named his music project Dittomaster. You can't equate its sound with anything. The uniqueness of Dittomaster's music is in its experimental combination of parts of musical styles that are accustomed to living apart in the nature of sounds themselves.

EP 'Champagne' from the eponymous band from the American city of Austin is the first serious attempt this musicians to assert itself in the indie scene. The EP consists of 6 tracks and it really conceptual like a mini album that opens the band as an interesting phenomenon in modern American music.

What is the difference between cult and legendary bands? Once recording a song that stirred the masses, or performing on the big stage and turning a lot of fans into a shamanic rite, this is enough for cult. It takes a lot more effort to become a legend. Need to do tons of work, perform at many concerts, make records with other artists, add other genres of art to own role and play, play and play, no matter what.

'Crystal Paradise' is the first single from the recently released album 'Tender Vittles' by the American duo Bass Race. The band's music is a gentle stream of indie, which got its charm from the silk sound and velvet arrangements.

Away from the Earth is instrumental music played by one person and presented as an original music project from Memphis, USA. The originality of the melodies is undeniable.
