No Artificial Colours – Reach For Me (Feat. Alex Mills)

NAC_Reachforme_Low

No Artificial Colours, a London dance duo that have been active in the remix and guest mix scene for a little while now, connect with vocalist Alex Mills for PMR Records single “Reach For Me”. Constructed of a similar sound palette to artists like Disclosure and Julio Bashmore, “Reach For Me” stands out from its trend by its quality and magnetism (the track draws you into it almost immediately).

Annie Eve – Elvis (Live at St. Stephen’s Church, London)

annieeve

The immensely talented UK singer and Communion Records signee Annie Eve recently recorded this stunning acoustic version of her track “Elvis” at St. Stephen’s Church, London. We use this reference, only for the sake of a reference, that Annie’s in a league tone-wise with Daughter’s Elena Tonra but as Annie Eve’s American C&W-influenced tone is very much hers.
