After Ours
Adam Grundy

After Ours, the musical project of Kayla Janowitz, is releasing her music video today for a key song called “Different Now.” From the After Ours new LP of Imaginary Friend that releases on June 6th, this single dances around self-reflection and the realization that we can all find solace in self-healing. I was also able to catch up with Kayla for a brief interview below. If you’re enjoying the music video, please consider pre-saving Imaginary Friend here.

My Life In 35 Songs, Track 8: “Feeling a Moment” by Feeder

My Life in 35 Songs

Turning to face what you’ve become, bury the ashes of someone…

I love the way it breaks the silence.

If you’ve never heard “Feeling a Moment” before, do yourself a favor and click play on that YouTube video down below, or go cue it up on your preferred streaming service.

About two weeks ago, I was able to sit down with Elliott Douglas, better known as M.A.G.S., during his recent tour stop in Washington D.C. to discuss his recently announced plans to take a hiatus from the project. I asked him about the factors that led to this decision, his recent collaboration with American Football, and what the future looks like for him.

Apple Music/UMG Launch “Sound Therapy” Songs

Jason Tate

Variety:

Apple Music, under an exclusive deal with Universal Music Group, is rolling out a collection of instrumental versions of pop songs — crafted based on audio science — that it claims can help you better sleep, relax and focus.

Apple Music’s Sound Therapy collection takes well-known songs and blends in “special sound waves designed to enhance users’ daily routines, while retaining the artist’s original vision,” according to the companies. For example, a “dreamy version of Katy Perry’s ‘Double Rainbow’… could help listeners drift off to sleep.”
