Top songs on the Minnesota Sound playlist.
Dizzy Fae "Spooky Link"
“Spooky Link” is a groovy, halloween themed pop/r&b track. The lyrics are fun and flirty, themed around the holiday in a sexy, fun way. The track has a smooth drum beat with shimmering synth pads and bouncing bass. The vocals are layered and full of ad libs. Overall the song is a great track for dancing at a halloween party this season!
WORLDWIDE CHAOS, Heavy Knee, g00db0iii, Nigel T "Worldwide Seance"
“Worldwide Seance” is an underground rap track with gritty tones. The track blends theatrical hardcore elements with loud trap beats and spooky aesthetics. The drums hit particularly hard and the bass is booming. The vocals are largely delivered in an over the top growling tone that adds to the theatricality and uniqueness of the music. This is the group's first release.
Night Jobs "Brody"
“Brody’ is a song with a high-production DIY garage rock sound and a lot of energy. The track prominently features massive group vocals, scratchy guitars and hard hitting drums. Elements of punk and pop rock are evident here, with strong melodic lead vocals fronting the charge. This song comes from the bands latest EP release “Never Happener.”
Elle PF "Don't Think Too Much"
“Don’t Think Too Much” opens with an array of echoing rhodes keys and atmospheric vocal melodies. The song takes a twist into a tighter groove, with a steady beat and a simple synth bass. The vocals utilize pitch correction in a tasteful manner, adding a sense of depth to the production. The song is a solid indie bop with unique sounds and a nice energy. To hear more from Elle PF check out the new single “Can you show me?”
TIAE "Everywhere"
TIAE returns with another upbeat banger featuring major afro pop vibes and infectious positivity. Like TIAE’s first single “Fun Times,” this song is overflowing with good energy. This is where TIAE thrives, he has a unique ability to make his music fun and danceable. This is TIAE’s second single release.
Saint Anthony Main "Winter"
A wash of atmospheric synth pads opens the track “Winter,” a DIY electronic indie track with hypnotic drums and a wash of reverb. The vocals are moody and nostalgic, delivered in a sleepy tone. The song's lyrics, like the artist's name, are deeply rooted in Minneapolis geography and its evident that the artist's home plays a big part in overall inspiration. This song comes from Saint Anthony Main’s new album “Retrograde.”
