This Love Is My Homeland (Ays Ser Im Yerkire)stands as a musical testimony to the people of Artsakh, known internationally as Nagorno Karabakh.

Emerging from Brisbane’s urban hip-hop landscape, Mikey G (Michael Alenaddaf) represents a journey shaped by resilience and reinvention. His path began with childhood recognition on Australian Idol Kids, followed by a decade away from the spotlight, and later a grassroots comeback fuelled by social media. His artistry blends golden-era rap influences with Brisbane’s shifting cultural identity. With recent singles such as Buckwild and Don’t You Love The Light gaining attention, alongside collaborations with producers including Eestbound and Beau Vallis, Mikey G is positioning himself as a fresh force within Queensland’s hip-hop scene. His upcoming project highlights community, multicultural identity, wellness, and creative evolution.
Mikey G’s work connects Brisbane’s suburban realism with global hip-hop sensibilities. His lyrics explore themes of self-discovery, ambition, and mental health advocacy. His flow often reflects the introspective clarity of J. Cole and the melodic smoothness of Jack Harlow. Visually, his brand merges Brisbane’s river-city scenery with gritty urban textures, creating a contrast that mirrors the duality in his identity.
His early exposure on Australian Idol Kids in 2004, performing In Da Club, introduced him to national audiences. A voluntary retreat from mainstream attention allowed him to immerse himself in Brisbane’s underground rap community, study lyricism through artists like Lupe Fiasco, and participate in cyphers around South Bank Parklands.
The #4barfriday challenge on Instagram reignited his artistic drive, with freestyle videos filmed in locations such as Fortitude Valley’s Bakery Lane gaining viral momentum. His early collaboration with Eestbound on the 2017 release River City Tapes formed the foundation of his jazz-rap fusion style.
His studio debut, The Soul Section EP (2020), engineered by Sage Audio and co-produced by Beau Vallis, showcased neo-soul grooves intertwined with introspective narratives, receiving rotation on 4ZZZ FM. Recent singles Buckwild (2023) and Don’t You Love The Light (2024) display his evolving trap-influenced production without sacrificing lyrical depth.

JCCutter explains that his creative process for the track was shaped by the idea that storms arrive, weeks drag on, and pain grows loud, yet somehow people continue to rise above it. The song closes the album because it represents the quiet promise present in every challenge and hardship: not being alone, not being defeated, and not simply standing tall, but rising because of what has been endured. For anyone needing a song that climbs beside them, this track offers that lift.
JCCutter often shares that music is the language and soul of humanity. It can be seen, heard, and felt, even when it is not consciously noticed. His personal journey mirrors that of many others. He always wanted to write music and share it, but life and responsibility took him around the world. Although those experiences were remarkable, the pull to write never left. He continued creating privately until deciding to step fully into writing, composing, arranging, and editing in the present day. He now invites listeners to enjoy the work, share their thoughts, and pass the music along.
This massive country rock anthem has now been added to the A-List Playlist and will be played every day, including as a special Country Powerplay at 3 PM Pacific USA time for the next month.

“Wa do ghe vbe n’oye vbe edian — Come see how it is here Akhwin Igho vbo — Money comes fast and goes fast.”

Brighton, Sussex alternative rock powerhouse Veritas Lit have officially landed on the Discover Music.fm A-List Playlist with two striking new releases — “Sanctuary of the Lost” and their six-minute-plus rock opus “Ruins.” Together, the tracks showcase the band’s distinctive sound: darkly melodic, cinematic, and emotionally charged.
“Sanctuary of the Lost” channels the essence of Evanescence and All About Eve, yet carries its own grit and atmosphere. Opening with slow, haunting sound, the track builds into an epic fusion of ethereal vocals, mammoth epic guitars and powerful cinematic drumming. Its beauty lies in contrast — delicate and angelic one moment, roaring and fierce the next — creating a sound that feels cinematic, soulful, and alive.
“Ruins,” the band’s defining rock opus, runs over six minutes and plays like a dark hymn for the modern age. Orchestral strings and haunting melodies build tension before erupting into a dramatic, Bonnie Tyler-style crescendo. The voice soars with emotion, at times echoing the spiritual power of Turkish star Sertab. It’s poetic, independent, and cinematic — a grand statement that blends rock and symphonic storytelling with fearless creativity.

Playlist
Catch this hot new rocker every day and night on the A-List Rock Playlist + as a special ROCK POWERPLAY at 4:30 PM Pacific USA time daily at for the next month.
In an era of rented hype and filtered fame, The Goldy lockS Band continues to prove that craft beats cash when a vision won’t quit. The band behind the fan-fueled “Only Talent” movement and the culture-jolting “Buy the Record Not the Bod” campaign returns with a new single, “Textbook,” a hook-loaded rocker that calls out narcissism with wit, bite, and a wink. True to form, the group is doubling down on its DIY DNA—building stage sets from scratch, hand-making costumes out of scraps and recycled materials, and inviting a local school to co-create a classroom-set music video that fuses the pep of Van Halen’s “Hot for Teacher,” the iconic pop punch of Britney Spears’ “…Baby One More Time,” and the quirky charm of Napoleon Dynamite.
The Song: A “Textbook” Case of Narcissism—Set to a Big, Satisfying Chorus
“Textbook” was sparked by a too-familiar scenario: a friend’s narcissistic husband who can’t stop orbiting his favorite topic—himself. Whether it’s dinners that turn into monologues or moments that somehow always circle back to his “stardom,” the behavior is, well… textbook. The track flips frustration into catharsis—sharp lyricism, crunchy guitars, and a chorus that lands like a mic drop. It’s the soundtrack for anyone who’s ever rolled their eyes at the predictable grandstanding of the self-obsessed.
Goldy: “We’ve all met the person who sucks the oxygen out of the room. Textbook is the permission slip to laugh, call it what it is, and move on.”
Rod: I’ve never had a song speak to me so intimately and flow so freely during the writing process. Every piece of the song flowed without hesitation or complications
Johnny: Textbook is a Groove built together during a rehearsal. it’s a fun song with a great melodic movement.
The Ethos: DIY or Die (with Style)
Long before it was trendy, The Goldy lockS Band built its world by hand. But for Goldy, this started decades ago in a place where stars were born: Prince’s Paisley Park. As a teen seamstress, she designed and sewed clothes and stage costumes for Prince himself and a roster of his developmental acts—boy bands, singers, and rising performers.
That early crash course in couture-for-the-stage became the backbone of her creative career. Goldy soon took those skills into another world of spectacle: professional wrestling. She became the go-to creator of bold, theatrical entrance wear for WWE, WCW, and TNA superstars, ensuring wrestlers hit the ramp looking like legends.
Today, those same hands still cut and stitch—but now the needle and thread are for her own family of performers. Goldy designs and sews all the Goldy lockS Band’s costumes from thrifted fabrics and recycled scraps, transforming cast-off materials into couture-level stagewear. Her work sits proudly in the lineage of today’s most visionary pop costumers—think Benson Boone’s sleek looks or Chapel Roan’s daring theatricality—but with an even grittier, handmade edge.
And it’s not just wardrobe.
Sets: fabricated from lumber, pallets, paint, and found materials—engineered to tour, transform, and surprise.
Props & FX: clever, practical builds (think: rain rigs, custom signage, mash-ups of hardware-store hacks and showbiz tricks).
It’s not just resourcefulness—it’s proof of concept for the band’s thesis: If the talent is real, the work will stand.
Goldy: “DIY isn’t a budget—it’s a belief. When we say ‘Only Talent,’ we mean that the art leads and everything else follows.”
The Campaigns: “Only Talent” and “Buy the Record Not the Bod”
The band’s two flagship messages are simple and disruptive:
Only Talent: Celebrate craft over clout, skill over spectacle.
Buy the Record Not the Bod: Stop rewarding clicks on bodies and start paying artists for music.
And it’s not just talk:
Over 220 magazines, blogs, and outlets have covered the Only Talent movement, making it a bona fide viral story.
To hammer home the message, Goldy and drummer Rod Saylor appeared nude—covered only in strategically placed CDs. It was a tongue-in-cheek parody of OnlyFans, designed to shock people into the truth: support physical goods, not just endless streaming.
The nudity was never about titillation—it was about confrontation. It spotlights the troubling statistic that 15% of young women ages 15–20 believe OnlyFans is “the future.” Even more alarming, girls as young as 10 in countries like Spain already see it as glamorous and aspirational, instead of pursuing education, work, or a vocation.
The band’s stance is unapologetic: buy the art, don’t sell your body. Support music as a craft, not as clickbait.
Goldy: “If you love what we do, buy the record. That’s the difference between artists surviving and artists thriving.”

Kirz has steadily built a reputation as a versatile artist whose talents, sound, and lyrics bridge the worlds of Afro-pop, Reggae, and Dancehall. With his soulful voice and distinctive delivery, he fuses modern Afrobeat with rich African influences, creating music that reflects both his aspirations and lived experiences.

The move exposed him to the energy, resilience, and diversity of city life, instilling in him the humility and drive that would shape his musical journey. Surrounded by a variety of sounds, from movie soundtracks to different genres of music, Kirz honed his craft as a songwriter, backup vocalist, and recording engineer while working in several studios.
His career breakthrough came in 2017 when he won the Docdeff Beat Killer Contest, a milestone that opened doors to performing at concerts and festivals across Lagos. Despite the challenges of one of the world’s most competitive cities, he remained focused on his goal of becoming an internationally recognized Afro/Dancehall artist.
Kirz began collaborating with producers and artists from Jamaica, Haiti, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Grenada, and the United States. His first major single, Bad Condition, gained traction and built anticipation for future projects. In 2018, he followed with Pray for Me and Far Away, songs that resonated with fans and expanded his global reach.
The year 2019 saw the release of Freedom, produced by Jahboot, known for his work with dancehall icon Popcaan, as well as Party Boy, produced by Blacka Kartel, a producer closely associated with Vybez Kartel. Kirz also created a Dancehall version of Beyoncé’s Brown Skin Girl, further showcasing his adaptability and cross-genre appeal.
More recently, his single Gold Digger, released under Manatee Records, has marked another turning point. Manatee Records, established in the early 1990s with offices in Chicago, Kingston, and London, has been instrumental in launching new talent. With a presence spanning Jamaica, the United States, Belize, London, Paris, and across Africa, the label continues to support Kirz as he pushes his music to international audiences.

Goldy Locks Sparks a Movement With Bold New Campaign: “Buy the Record, Not the Bod”
Nashville, TN – July 11, 2025 – Goldy Locks, lead vocalist of The Goldy lockS Band and a pioneer in both rock and pro wrestling, has launched a powerful new campaign confronting the objectification of women in music. Titled “Buy the Record, Not the Bod,” the campaign challenges fans to support the art, not the image, and reignites a national conversation around how female artists are treated — and how they survive.
Known for her fearless performances and outspoken personality, Goldy has built a career that spans reality television, wrestling, entrepreneurship, and now full-throttle rock. She’s opened for artists like Pink, Nickelback, and Bret Michaels, all while performing high-energy shows across the country. But her latest move may be her most impactful yet.
In a striking photo campaign, Goldy poses nude, holding only physical copies of her music. The message is direct: support the artist, not just the image.
“I’m tired of hearing people say, ‘start an OnlyFans if you want to keep making music,’” says Goldy. “This campaign is my answer. I’ll be vulnerable to make a statement, not for subscriptions. If you love an artist, buy the album. Don’t just stream it and scroll away.”
Streaming royalties pay a fraction of what artists need to survive. While millions consume music daily, the earnings for most independent artists fall well below the poverty line. Goldy’s response is rooted in resilience and a desire to show fans that real support means buying music, merch, and tickets.
“You want to support women in music? Buy the CD. Grab the vinyl. Wear the T-shirt. That’s how the music keeps going,” she says.
The campaign isn’t about modesty. It’s about reclaiming agency. Goldy is asking fans to stand up for the creators they love and reject the pressure placed on women to monetize their appearance.
The idea, Goldy says, came to her during prayer. “I asked for guidance on what to do next, and this vision came to me. I started pitching the idea to store owners and every single one said yes before I even finished explaining.”
Her message is resonating. Fans are sharing photos, purchases, and stories under the hashtag #BuyTheRecordNotTheBod, helping spread the word and amplifying the voices of independent women in music.
Meanwhile, Goldy’s new collaborative single “I Didn’t Know” — featuring country rap icons The LACS and wrestling legend Mickie James Aldis — continues to expand her reach and artistic vision, tackling themes of betrayal, heartbreak, and self-discovery.
For Goldy, this moment is about more than just one campaign. It’s about shifting the narrative for the next generation of female artists.
“I want to show young women they don’t have to sell themselves short. They don’t need to play to an algorithm. They can lead with truth, talent, and courage.”
Fans are encouraged to join the movement by:
Purchasing music directly from independent artists
Buying physical albums, vinyl, and merch
Sharing indie music on social media
Starting conversations about respect and representation in entertainment
As Goldy puts it, “This isn’t about shock. It’s about survival. The question is simple — will you support the music, or just consume the image?”
Support the Movement. Fuel the Music.
Goldy Locks is proving that talent, truth, and grit still have a place in the music industry — and she’s calling on fans everywhere to help keep it alive. Whether through physical album sales, merchandise, or simply spreading the word, “Buy the Record, Not the Bod” is more than a campaign. It’s a stand for artistic integrity.
In a powerful twist on the campaign, drummer Rod Saylor coined “Buy the Record, Not the ROD,” adding a male perspective that drills into the double standard around male nudity and vulnerability in media—while underscoring the band’s unity in rallying for fair streaming payouts and true artistic empowerment.

As guitar music and rock experiences a resurgence in 2025, spurred by the passing of Ozzy Osbourne and the return of Oasis, Dean emerges with a sound that is both emotionally raw and musically powerful.
After losing his wife to cancer, Dean stepped away from music for years. But in the wake of that personal tragedy, he picked up his guitar once more and began recording again. The result is a collection of deeply personal rock anthems. Beyond 17 is his second new single release with more to follow, so watch this space.
This new single channels the essence of classic rock with thunderous drums, screeching guitar solos, thick driving riffs, and a vocal performance that shifts from deep and soulful to soaring and anthemic. It’s a track that pulses with emotion, blending heartfelt lyrics with a sinister edge and a long, blazing guitar solo that evokes the spirit of early Black Sabbath.
Beyond 17 is more than just a song. It is an anthem of resilience and a celebration of rock’s enduring spirit. It captures the pain of loss, the drive to carry on, and the power of music to heal. With its anthemic structure and powerful instrumentation, it feels like a classic rock track reborn for a new generation.
Joseph H Dean has confirmed that he has over an album’s worth of original material recorded before his wife’s illness returned. These songs have never been heard before, and he plans to release new tracks every few weeks. Beyond 17 is only the beginning.
Despite his rock influences and guitar heroes, Dean cites Lady Gaga as his favorite artist. He considers himself her biggest fan and is inspired by her fearless expression and artistry. His favorite tracks include “I Don’t Know What Love Is,” “Killah,” “Bad Romance,” and “Born This Way.”
Joseph H Dean’s return to music is more than a comeback. It is a powerful statement from an artist who has turned grief into creation, and who now stands ready to share his journey one song at a time.

Balkan underground legends The Thunder Corpses are re-emerging with a powerful new release: a remastered version of their fan-favorite single “The Skies of London”, leading the charge into their upcoming box set compilation, Songs We Died To.
The track is a modern alternative groove built on a solid beat and sharp guitar stabs, quickly evolving into a wall of indie noise. With deep, storytelling vocals and a busy rhythmic bassline, the song moves seamlessly between ethereal textures and fast-paced, gothic-tinged alt-rock. Think early The Damned, Joy Division, or Jesus and Mary Chain, but reimagined with a slick, contemporary production reminiscent of Artemis. It’s gritty, addictive, and steeped in shoegaze textures with a darker, more urgent edge.
Formed in the shadowy corners of the Balkan garage-surf scene, The Thunder Corpses gained early recognition with their debut album Somewhere Over the Black Bay. Their sound, an atmospheric mix of psychedelic pop, surf rock, and punk-infused garage, was praised for its raw energy and moody undertones. Serbian daily Danas hailed them as “one of the most promising bands in the region,” spotlighting their unique fusion of lo-fi aesthetics and genre-defying songwriting.
Both Somewhere Over the Black Bay and their follow-up This earned spots in Balkanrock’s “Best Regional Releases” list, a rare feat for any underground band. While their approach has always leaned toward DIY and anti-commercialism, the group still managed to reach international audiences, including their first U.S. radio airplay on KUCI FM in California.
Now, they’re set to release their most ambitious project yet. The upcoming box set, Songs We Died To, will compile carefully remastered versions of standout tracks from across their discography. At the heart of this collection is “The Skies of London,” newly polished but still retaining the hazy, emotionally detached atmosphere that first won fans over. It’s a song that perfectly encapsulates the band’s core: hypnotic, restrained, cinematic, and deeply personal.
Key Dates:
“The Skies of London” (Remastered) drops on July 13
Songs We Died To full box set releases on July 31
This box set serves not just as a compilation but as a testament to the band’s journey through the underground, capturing the raw moods and sonic evolution that have defined their sound.

Catch “Living Without Hope” playing every few hours, and as our POWERPLAY at 10:30 AM Pacific USA time, every day for the next month!
South African singer-songwriter Charlie Harris dives deep into raw emotion with his haunting new single, “Living Without Hope” — a track that captures the stillness and solitude of heartbreak.
Produced by longtime collaborator Robin Walsh, the 3-minute track is a sparse, slow-burning meditation on how sadness can quietly infiltrate our daily lives. Carried by Charlie’s intimate vocals and unfiltered songwriting, Living Without Hope doesn’t dress up the truth — it sits in it.
“It’s a song to share how we all sometimes feel,” says Charlie. “That quiet ache when sadness and loneliness take over your every thought, and it feels like you’re living without any hope. I wanted to put that into words — not for sympathy, but for solidarity.”
Following his warmly received single When Are You Coming Home?, and the folk-rock optimism that defined his earlier albums Digital Dust Side A and B, this new track signals a shift toward a starker, more reflective sound. But Charlie’s signature touch remains: vulnerability, storytelling, and an emotional through-line that lingers long after the last note.
Based in Johannesburg, Charlie Harris has built a loyal following through his poetic songwriting, warm folk-rock energy, and ability to find the extraordinary in everyday emotion.

After a four-year hiatus, Amrit Ghatore is back — not to chase fame, but to offer healing. His new single isn’t just another pop release — it’s a cinematic, emotionally rich journey that gives voice to the unheard and hope to the emotionally worn.
“I didn’t want to just write a song. I wanted to hold space for people who feel like they have to hold everything in. This is for them,” Ghatore shares.
“Hold You in the Dark” is a modern epic pop ballad — mysterious, melodic, spine-tingling, and steeped in emotion. Featuring sweeping orchestral arrangements, delicate piano, and Ghatore’s raw, expressive vocals, it plays more like a whispered prayer than a commercial single. It’s a reminder that sometimes music isn’t about noise — it’s about silence being held.
The accompanying music video deepens the experience, following a young woman navigating life in London while silently coping with inner wounds. Ghatore never appears with her on screen — a poignant symbol of how music can reach our hearts without ever standing in front of us. His presence is felt in every note, every lyric, every breath.
As the video unfolds, the protagonist confronts her past and reconnects with her inner child — an emotional crescendo that mirrors the track’s ethereal, healing climax. Ghatore, meanwhile, delivers his performance from the echoing beauty of an empty cathedral, his voice lifting like incense into the air — reaching out to all who listen.
Who Is Amrit Ghatore?
A British artist with Indian and East African heritage, Amrit Ghatore is not your typical pop act. Tall, striking, and always donning a Kenyan-style turban, his identity is as layered and textured as his music. Blending Eastern tradition with Western cinematic pop, Ghatore creates more than music — he builds sonic sanctuaries for the soul.
With “Hold You in the Dark,” he proves that modern pop can still be sacred, vulnerable, and deeply human.

Shawn Cook—formerly known as Vital—is a rapper, singer, and songwriter raised between California’s Bay Area and Chicago. With a musical mission to create “timeless music that will still sound fresh 20 years from now,” Cook’s career reflects both passion and persistence. His earliest performances took place at church-sponsored stage plays, where he entertained his mother’s friends. By age 13, despite being California-born, he stood out for his East Coast-influenced rap style, prompting those around him to say, “Dawg, he different.”
His musical inspirations include icons such as James Brown, Michael Jackson, Slick Rick, and the Wu-Tang Clan, alongside Bay Area legends like Mac Dre, Too Short, and Dubee. Drawing from a challenging upbringing, Cook turned to hip-hop as an emotional outlet: “I didn’t want to sing it to you; I wanted to rap it to you.”
Mentored by Bay Area pioneer Dubee, Cook’s career took shape over nearly two decades. A key turning point came through his collaboration with WashHouse Music Group founder Jonas Teele, which led to work with New Orleans rapper Juvenile and Bay Area stars B-Legit and Keek the Sneak. Cook also developed a close friendship with Mac Dre and appeared on The Game Is Thick Part 2 before Dre’s untimely passing.
His profile grew significantly after linking with Berner of Wiz Khalifa’s Taylor Gang, contributing to the breakout track All in a Day (featuring YG and Young Thug), which has garnered over 21 million YouTube views. That success sparked further collaborations with major artists including Snoop Dogg and Cypress Hill’s B-Real on the song Faded. Between features and solo releases, Cook has amassed over 21 million Spotify streams and 36 million views on YouTube.
Cook’s songwriting credentials are equally impressive. He co-wrote for Grammy-nominated Samoan reggae artist J-Boog on Rose Petals, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Reggae Chart, and helped pen Morning, one of Marc E. Bassy’s biggest pop hits with over 174 million Spotify streams. The latter earned him a Certified Gold Plaque.
In 2018, he released The Silky Slim LP, his first project under his birth name, setting the tone for a new artistic era. Now, he prepares for the release of his upcoming EP Claudette, led by the single Stay, which showcases a more introspective side, exploring love and emotional maturity.
His latest single London Bridgescontinues that trajectory. Described as a musical marriage proposal from a reserved man deeply in love, the track carries heartfelt lyrics like “Take my hand, come with me… Trust that love, never leaves… When it all falls down.” It’s a testament to loyalty, vulnerability, and emotional commitment.
Known for his positive energy and clear artistic vision, Shawn Cook aims to leave a lasting impact on pop and hip-hop by blending depth with modern appeal. London Bridges is a standout addition to his evolving catalog—and one that’s making waves on the A-List Playlist right now.

Lifted from his conceptual album Voyage on Soulmate Seas, this track is a masterclass in heartfelt songwriting, catchy hooks, and warm, polished production. With its soaring vocals and powerful storytelling, ‘Every Second’is set to spin every few hours on the station, and will also feature as a special ROCK POWERPLAY at 5:30 PM Pacific USA time for the next month.
Voyage on Soulmate Seasmarks a bold and deeply thoughtful project from lifelong songwriter John Consalvo.

Opening with a spoken-word piece titled Passing The Torch, the journey unfolds with acoustic finesse, electric energy, and Consalvo’s distinct vocal presence.
Early highlights include Where Do I Find Her – a euphoric rock track with emotional weight and poetic depth – and the more playful, acoustic-led Jilly Bean, which brings a lighter touch to the album’s arc. From there, listeners are pulled into the emotional power of Alone, a Bon Jovi-esque anthem that contrasts bright, uplifting melodies with themes of heartbreak and release.
The southern rock spirit comes alive in Get My Million, a gritty and infectious anthem that critiques the illusion of wealth as a path to love. It’s followed by the introspective and poignantEvery Second, which showcases Consalvo’s ability to blend folk-rock intimacy with a universal emotional reach. The track’s acoustic warmth and raw vocal delivery make it a standout moment on the album – and now, on air.
Further down the line, tracks likeIMY evolve into Goo Goo Dolls-style pop-rock anthems, while Sometimes brings a heartfelt vulnerability that’s both cutting and comforting. Instrumental interlude The Miss adds cinematic flair, leading into the gentle storytelling of Show Me How To Live.
The album closes with strength and variety – from the hopeful And There She Was, to the blues-soaked harmonies of Shake My Soul, and finally, the energetic Now We’re Off, which brings a pop-punk finish to this expansive and engaging journey.
With Voyage on Soulmate Seas, John Consalvo proves himself a master of narrative-driven rock, weaving poetic depth with melodic magnetism. ‘Every Second’ is just one gem from this rich collection, and its addition to the A-List Playlist guarantees that more listeners will discover the beauty and strength of Consalvo’s work in the weeks ahead.

We’re proud to announce that the breathtaking new single “Mirrors” by Amrit Ghatore has officially landed on our A-List Playlist. This powerful, cinematic, and emotionally rich track will be playing every couple of hours, with a special POWERPLAY spotlight at 12 PM Pacific USA time running throughout the next month.
A Return Marked by Reflection
After years of creative silence, British singer-songwriter and visionary Amrit Ghatore resurfaces with “Mirrors”—a soul-stirring debut that doesn’t just speak; it listens. Stripping back the noise, the track offers a raw and poetic meditation on identity, self-realization, and the truths we often avoid.
But “Mirrors” isn’t just a return— It’s a reckoning. A transformation. A letting go.
Born in Stillness, Forged in Truth
Following a deliberate step away from the spotlight, Amrit didn’t disappear—he went inward. He listened deeply: to the world, to its silence, and to the questions that echo in solitude.
“Mirrors” emerged not from heartbreak, but from a deeper awakening—a moment of clarity in the blur of modern life. It’s a cinematic expression of spiritual confrontation, where vulnerability becomes a weapon and silence speaks volumes.
The Sound of Searching
Layered with delicate piano, moody guitar textures, and Amrit’s hauntingly intimate vocals, “Mirrors” plays like a quiet revelation. It’s the sound of someone watching their reflection until it moves—without them.
The result is understated yet immense. Every note feels intentional. Every lyric leaves space to breathe.
At surface level, it’s a song about love and loss. But listen closely, and you’ll discover a journey inward—a mirror held up to the soul.
A New Era Begins
Known for his previous BBC-supported experimental releases, Amrit Ghatore steps into 2025 with a bold, redefined artistic vision—deeply rooted in introspection, spirituality, and unfiltered emotion.
This is more than just a single. It’s the beginning of a new chapter.

WHO IS TONY MICHAEL?
Tony Michael will be completing his new album, with the title song,” In the shadow of a famous man”. Which is Expected to hit the charts after almost 40 years away from the Music scene.
Tony was born in Brooklyn New York. At the early age of 4, his biological father deserted the family leaving Tony to grow up without a father figure. His Grandfather helped raise Tony. But granddad was a very strict Italian Immigrant who had an impeccable work ethic.
Tony was very close to his Mother Marie (nick named Mickey), who is now at rest in the Lord. Mickey was everything to Tony, and was very supportive of Tony’s love for music. Mickey was Tony’s inspiration. Some of his fondest memories as a child, was when his uncles would put him on the dining room table and have Tony sing for the whole family and they would throw money on the table cheering the little guy on.
Tony was an active child with an active mind. He was ahead of most children his age. His mother once told me, I quote. “When asked what he wanted to be when he grew up, my son always said, “a boxer, a priest, a detective and a singer”.
DISNEYLAND
Tony’s uncle worked for years at Technicolor and sent Tony to meet with his friend Ron who worked at Disneyland. When Tony arrived in Disneyland, he was asked if he could sing. Of course, Tony was quick to respond with a yes. And that began the beginning of a major league music career.
Through his position at Disneyland, Tony met some prosperous figures in the entertainment industry. Thus, lead him to the beginning of his career as a singer/songwriter. Tony and his new band, Good News soon began playing the concert circuits.
Tony was given the title by New York Disc Jockey Jack Avery as the “Enchanter” of music, who mesmerized his audience whenever he performed. His style came out of his heart and took the fans to an emotional roller coaster ride. Bringing them his proven original music and a well-rounded show including a segment honoring the King of Rock and Roll, as he portraits Elvis’s music from the perspective of a close and personal friend in a fashion unique to anyone else. This was not an imitation but a testimony of the King of Rock-N-Roll.
TONY MICHAEL BRINGS DOWN THE HOUSE!
Tony is a holder of the Memphis top 100 recording award and a two-time recipient of the Nashville Gold Eagle award both in 1986 and 1987. His hit song HURT which was a remake of the 1954 version originally performed by Roy Hamilton, and later versions by Timi Yuro as well as Elvis himself.
Tony and his manager Jerry (JB) were responsible for exposing some of the major rip-off Music companies in Nashville. Headlines read “Tony Michael brings down the house” of the corrupt entertainment Industry cheats who dirtied the Industries Music Row reputation for many years.
Recognized nationally as well as internationally, Tonys version of “HURT” sung with such feeling, and ending climaxing with a vocal range of stupendous control, aired on many of the major radio stations in the US as well as Japan and various European countries.
This made Tony Michael a household name in the entertainment industry.
This writer, Kat Carpenter the daughter of Rick Carpenter, Music Promoter/Manager, as told by my dad, had the distinct pleasure of meeting Tony Michael in the late 1970s in Long Island New York. They became close friends as my dad began promoting Tony. It was as if they were put together by some divine encounter.
Dad went on to tell me about the New York concert. The story goes like this. “I felt as though I had known him for years. There was nothing synthetic about this entertainer, on or off the stage”. He spent a majority of his career performing for many charitable causes such as United Cerebral Palsy, March of Dimes, Cancer research and the fight for Missing and exploited Children. A giving person who cared only to be able to put a smile and a bit of happiness into those hearts of so many.
IT ALL CAME TO A SUDDEN HALT
Tony Michael was going places as a well-known figure in the entertainment industry and then it all came to an abrupt halt. Tony was asked to perform a benefit show for the terminally ill patients at the Northridge Hospital, in Northridge California after his 1981 USA Tour. Tony who always found it difficult to say no, he went on to perform that evening.
I remember it well. It was a small group of about 30, so just the guitar and his voice were adequate. As I spoke with the family and friends of some of the patients, I could feel their emotions, and I felt the presence of something phenomenal in the air that I can only describe as calming and peaceful, that which I have only witnessed in church when I was a young lad. There wasn’t a dry eye in that hospital ward which included myself. As I listened, the comments were flowing with the tears of joy and sadness all wrapped up together in the ward. The thing that stood out the most in my mind and heart that very night was the father of a young girl who hadn’t much more time on this earth, he told me, I quote “I cannot ever in my life repay what Tony gave my daughter this day”. You see his daughter has not responded in any physical manner in the last six years after her accident. “When Tony sang the song “I Believe”, She looked up at me squeezed my hand with tears running down her cheeks and she smiled and I knew at that moment she was finally at peace.”. “Two days later she passed away”.
How can you ever repay anyone for a gift so precious. This is what Tony is made of. He stood out from the rest. “It was in the middle of the next song when Tony collapsed. He was already at the hospital and it was like total chaos. He was admitted and no-one could get near him with round the clock security at his door. I knew then that something was seriously wrong. I spoke with his manager a few days later and was told that Tony suffered from a minor stroke brought on by physical exhaustion. It was then that Tony vanished for nine years.
MOVING ON
I later found out that his accountant, Richard (Dick) White had embezzled all of Tony’s assets and left him almost penniless. Tony had an investment in a Detective agency in Studio City California. And so, what did he do? Tony began to establish himself as a successful Private Investigator and specialized in Child abduction cases. His rate of recovery was staggering with a track record of recovering 95% of the agency cases. When asked how he was able to maintain a 95% success rate. Tony gave all the credit to God, claiming that “The good Lord put me in the right places at the right time”. Tony ran a highly sophisticated Agency for several years until one day he was working on a kidnaping child case which led him to uncover a cartel ring that utilized piolets from a top airline company to get their drug and precious stones into the United States.. Due to the failed attempts on Tony’s and his family’s lives, he decided to move out of California and maintained a low profile.
WHERE IN THE HECK IS THE BULL MOUNTAINS
It was now 1989. Nine years later when I was tipped off that TONY MICHAEL, was found. He was appearing at a place called the Tumbleweed Saloon somewhere in a place called THE BULL MOUNTAINS Montana. Of course, I had to fly there to see if it truly was the legend I once grew to care about. I remember getting off the plane in Billings Montana. It was a Saturday evening. I had a Limo waiting. He took me about 60 miles to the Tumbleweed Saloon. I found it to be a friendly atmosphere. It was almost as if I went back in time to the old west, cowboys everywhere, and of course I was in my three-piece suit and a fedora hat. I remember a cowboy approaching me and said, “You need to get rid of that hat and get Cha a real cowboy hat”.
As I made my way through the crowd, I noticed the homemade stage with hay bails all around it. It reminded me of the Grand Ole Opry house. The show began with a selection of local talent, which later I was told that Tony worked with these folks to get them ready for this show. I though to myself that Tony came here to a place most of us have never heard of and harnessed this local talent into a group of Las Vegas show personalities. Suddenly it got really quiet with the announcement that Tony Michael was on stage.
The place exploded just as it once was when Tony performed his concerts. He came out from behind the stage. Thinner, older, yet somehow his voice was untouched by the scorn of time. He appeared confident as he always was. The shrills from the girls brought back long-ago memories. The excitement was still there just like a fine wine, Tony appeared to have gotten better in time. It really was him, I was so excited that I couldn’t wait to get back to my office and begin to let the world know that TONY MICHAEL was alive and well. The news media grabbed ahold of the story and low and behold I was reunited with my talented friend. I couldn’t persuade him to let me bring him back where he belongs, on stage.
ABUSED, TROUBLED, NEGLECTED AND ABANDONED YOUTH
Tony told me that he founded the Chapel of Hope Ministries and for 13 years he and the love of his life Melinda, housed and counselled abused, troubled, neglected and abandoned children. He stated that he and his wife ministered to over 400 youth from all walks of life. And that it all abruptly ended as he went on to explain how the church had been set on fire and burned to the ground.
It was no surprise to me that in 2021 Tony was recognized and awarded the 2021 American Christian Patriot of the Year award. For his work as a Pastor, counselling and Pastoring to the youth and to the broken families from all over the country. Tony was also working as a Counselor at the County Youth Detention Center. Tony brought the very first Church services to that facility. And as if he didn’t do enough, while he was Pastoring, he also donated his time for six years with the Musselshell County Sheriff’s Department and became a reserve Deputy that the community grew to trust and get help from.
SAYS WHAT HE MEANS AND MEANS WHAT HE SAYS
This is the heart of the man I came to know as TONY MICHAEL. A man who says what he means and means what he says, and will overcome all obstacles to achieve whatever task that is put before him.
When asked how he achieves all these things, he gives credit first to God and secondly his dear wife MelLinda, which Tony claims as his better half.
LEAVING A LEGACY
Another 34 years had passed, only to find Tony once again now living in Nevada. I had my daughter Kat locate him and she and I convinced Tony to let us release his music. He was apprehensive and gave excuses like, “Rick my friend I am seventy years old with a head missing hair, what in the world have I got to offer”? I said, “I’m ninety-one years young and am ready for a comeback”, Next I made the only statemen I could have, the statement that I knew would hit him where it matters most. I said, “how about a Legacy for your children and grandchildren.” Tony finally accepted the partnership because he wanted to leave his children and grandchildren a Legacy of his music.
SO HERE WE ARE TODAY
So that brings us all current. At the age of 70, Tony is getting ready to release his album with a whole lot of persuading from myself and my daughter.
You will soon be hearing his music and there is no doubt that it will move to the charts even though my Dads long time friend doesn’t care about fame.
We believe God has given RCI Communications and Glory Music the privilege to fulfill a lifelong destiny. There is no doubt in our minds that the Legacy Tony will leave for his loved ones will stand the test of time and, will also be a Legacy for the music Industry.

“Addicted” is the hot new single from Georgian artist Tika Balanchine. The track explores the emotional highs and lows of love, capturing the feeling of romantic addiction with raw honesty and soul. “Love can be the best high but also the hardest addiction to break,” says Balanchine, who drew inspiration from the way love can mimic the effects of a drug—intoxicating, irresistible, and sometimes toxic.
Recorded at Bravo Records, Addicted blends a vintage-inspired sound with a modern R&B sheen, showcasing Tika’s signature mix of soulful melodies and emotionally charged vocals. With its mellow groove, heartfelt lyrics, and powerful delivery, the single radiates warmth and vulnerability, marking another standout moment in Balanchine’s growing catalog.
We’re thrilled to announce that Voices, the explosive new anthem from Prancing Rhinos, has landed on our A-List Playlist! Catch this high-powered ROCK METAL POWERPLAY every few hours for the next month—prepare for a supersonic ride of intensity and raw emotion. You can also hear this fast rising track as a special ROCK POWERPLAY at 11:30 AM Pacific USA time every day at for the next month.
Prancing Rhinos have released their latest single, “Voices,” accompanied by a brand-new music video. Taken from their album di[e]mension, the track embodies the band’s signature fusion of heaviness, melody, and raw emotion.
di[e]mension is an intense journey through the darkest depths of human existence. The album explores both inner and outer struggles—revenge, guilt, self-destruction, and the relentless urge for change. Its lyrics are raw, uncompromising, and deeply emotional, shifting between rage, frustration, despair, and profound self-reflection. It serves as a battle against personal demons, the weight of the past, and a world that often seems to offer only emptiness and pain.
Musically, di[e]mensionis as diverse as the emotions it conveys. While alternative metal serves as its foundation, each track introduces a distinct influence. Crushing metalcore riffs and pounding breakdowns collide with dark rap and trap beats, while powerful rock melodies and relentless heaviness shape a dynamic, ever-shifting sound. This genre-blending approach enhances the album’s emotional depth, intensifying the atmosphere of each song.
Toward the album’s conclusion, a shift occurs. After the overwhelming darkness, light slowly begins to break through. The mood grows more hopeful, and the perspective turns forward. Though the struggle persists, it is no longer solely about destruction—it becomes a reflection of the possibility of change.
More than just music, di[e]mension is a raw and unfiltered expression of everything that burns within its creators.
Prancing Rhinos delivers a sound that is both thick-skinned and heavy, yet melodic, aesthetic, and sophisticated. Their music fuses progressive nu-metal with elements of death metal, incorporating rap and trip-hop influences. Since forming in mid-2023, the band has embraced this versatility, showcasing it in their latest work.

We are very pleased to announce that the epic and melodic new single ‘Sleeping Satellite’ from UK chart topper ‘Kuill’ is now on our A-List Playlist. As well as hearing this hot new single every couple of hours on the playlist, global and local listeners can also hear it as a special POWERPLAY at 7:30 PM Pacific USA time for the next month.
British pop artist Kuill has recently announced his new release, a rendition of the ’90s classic “Sleeping Satellite” by Tasmin Archer, which will be released on March 7th, 2025. As a pop singer and songwriter on the rise, Kuill has a knack for blending modern sounds with hints of the past, and his take on this classic hit is a perfect example.
“Sleeping Satellite” by Tasmin Archer was a number-one hit in several countries after its release in 1992, and it’s still going strong all these years later! The original track stands out for its mellow, almost sombre quality, built on an acoustic arrangement with new-age synths and groove-driven drums. Its gentle mood and clear rhythm touched the hearts of many listeners at the time and continue to do so today.
Kuill‘s version, on the other hand, has a brighter, punchier sound. The cover retains the heart of the original while adding the artist’s distinctive twist to the mix. In this rendition, a catchy staccato electric guitar provides extra rhythm and vibe, balanced by atmospheric suspended piano chords and electronic textures that fill the sound space. The electronic drums carry a contemporary R&B vibe, perfectly matching the overall arrangement and lending the song a dreamy, ethereal mood while maintaining rhythm and punch.
Kuill’s vocal performance is full of emotion, showcasing a wide range of tones that display his mastery and control. At times, his vocal style is reminiscent of artists like KD Lang or Mick Hucknall. At other moments, his vocal flow could appeal to fans of top-charting performers such as Ed Sheeran or Maroon 5. The production is top-notch, not only highlighting the artist’s dynamic singing ability but also adding depth and power to the instrumental, perfectly conveying the emotion that drives the song. Instead of simply mimicking the original, Kuill offers a personal and original take, adding to the legacy of this wonderful track rather than replicating it verbatim.
“Sleeping Satellite” is an incredible way for Kuill to welcome the new year, especially after such an impressive run in 2024. He appeared on “The Voice UK 2024″, where he was mentored by the iconic Tom Jones. He also supported Russell Crowe‘s “Indoor Garden Party” and had the honor of performing “God Save The King” at Twickenham Stadium, London, for King Charles during the England vs. South Africa rugby match—an unforgettable moment in front of a crowd of 80,000.
His album “Fragile Creatures” continues to make waves, climbing high on the iTunes charts and achieving an impressive 31st place on the Official UK Album Charts—a phenomenal accomplishment for an independent artist like Kuill.
The upcoming release of “Sleeping Satellite” feels like another significant step forward for Kuill, who plans to continue releasing high-quality music and bringing his songs and renditions to live audiences. He recently performed at an exclusive Press Night in Leeds, England, where high-quality audio and video captured his setlist, featuring some of his best songs and more.
“Sleeping Satellite” will be available on streaming services on March 7th, 2025. In the meantime, fans can discover more of Kuill’s music on Spotify, Apple Music, and other platforms. PRE-SAVE NOW
Over the course of the past four years of releasing songs as a professional artist online, Kuill’s music has touched the hearts and minds of countless listeners all around the globe. By putting in the work from day one and refining his outstanding natural talents into a sonic force to be reckoned with, his sensationally soulful spin on the Pop genre has provided him with the good fortune of a platform and opportunity to turn his wildest dreams into his daily reality.
Kuill has spent every day of his life devoted and dedicated to his craft, and the UK-based artist has achieved extraordinary results all along the way. From thrilling listeners around the world with his first two albums, Changing Faces (2022) and Fragile Creatures (2024), to internationally recognized, chart-topping success by reaching the number one spot on iTunes’ singer/songwriter charts, his journey has been remarkable.
