Originally from Harrison, NY,  Alimorad pursued his degree in Music Technology at Northeastern University, where he began his career as a solo artist. He quickly became one of Boston’s most popular college acts, culminating with Alimorad being selected by the University, and his class, to perform the National Anthem on Northeastern Night at Fenway Park.

Additional dates included a headlining showcase at SXSW (Austin, TX), The Listening Room (Nashville, TN), and a featured spot in the Composer’s Showcase (Las Vegas, NV). International coverage of the album included a live broadcast on 94.1 FM in Melbourne, Australia before the tour halted due to the COVID-19 lockdown.

Following This Is Tomorrow Calling, Alimorad paired with Ross Vannelli as producer and co-songwriter for a series of singles released throughout 2022.

“It Never Rains” taps into disco history while giving a classic a fresh twist for today’s dancefloors. DJ Viviano, one of the legendary original DJs from Studio 54, produced this track, which is steeped in club culture tradition, blending nostalgia with a modern vibe. Originally titled “It Never Rains in Southern California” and first recorded by Albert Hammond, this cover breathes new life into the song. The heartbeat of the track is disco, pulsating with grooves and four-on-the-floor beats that quickly transport listeners back to the heyday of New York nightlife. House elements are layered in, updating the structure with deep bass, sharp percussion, and subtle electronic accents that push the song into modern territory while still keeping its nostalgic essence. What sets “It Never Rains” apart is its perfect balance: the music doesn’t lean too heavily on nostalgia, nor does it completely abandon its classic roots for the sake of modernization. Instead, it bursts forth in the middle, delivering a warm, danceable homage that celebrates disco’s legacy while welcoming a house-influenced future.

Flowing (To You) – Luna Blanca Feat. Davina-Carolin -link up here lunablancamusic.com –

Richard Hecks and His Nouveau Flamenco Band Luna Blanca usually play instrumental guitar music. Here’s a vocal piece with Davina-Carolin, a brilliant singer and pianist. davina-carolin.com

The song ‘Flowing (To You)’ by Luna Blanca feat. Davina-Carolin uses metaphors like flowing lights, morning rain, and ocean on fire to describe the transformative power of love. The lyrics convey a sense of renewal, healing, and being guided by love.

Solo Noi kicked off in 2016 as a songwriting duo focused on the jazz/blues soft rock scene. The band consists of John Fitz (vocals, bass, and guitars), Robert S Smith (vocals and keyboards), Sten Stenapo (drums), and Ollie Davies (guitar). John and Robert have quite the history, having played at some of London’s top venues like Ronnie Scott’s, Imperial College, and the Roundhouse, as well as recording at Maison Rouge and The Town House. They both found success with their releases in the 80s and 90s. Now, they tap into that wealth of experience to craft soft rock, bluesy, jazzy songs that are perfect for radio. Their 2024 release, Dreaming of America, has already climbed to over 300,000 streams, and each new release is eagerly awaited by a growing fan base ready to hear what Solo Noi will drop next.

This summer, they’re hitting the UK festival circuit, and you can bet this new track will be part of the setlist. Imagine a mix of Foreigner and Bon Jovi with some Beatles-inspired lyrics, and you’re getting close to the fantastic sound they produce, blending traditional vocal harmonies, catchy melodies, smart lyrics, and a lineup featuring guitars, drums, and keyboards.

Pia Baris – a name that’s bringing a breath of fresh air to the music world. At just 19 years old, the German singer and songwriter is on the cusp of an impressive career. Her music? An atmospheric mix of melancholic sounds, minimalist beats, and contemporary pop – artfully composed and lyrically touching.

From an early age, Pia demonstrated an extraordinary sense for melodies and storytelling. From her first performances in choirs to solo roles at the Frankfurt Opera to her scholarship at the renowned Frankfurt Conservatory, her voice and stage presence are unparalleled. At the age of 16, she celebrated a significant milestone with her first song, “Red Flag,” when she performed it at the LEA Awards in Frankfurt—accompanied by artists such as Milow and Yvonne Catterfeld.

The media response was quick: RTL dedicated a home story to her, and other reports hailed her as one of the most promising newcomers on the German music scene. With her profound songwriting, which reflects on themes like love, loss, and personal growth, Pia speaks the language of an entire generation – honest, raw, and unvarnished.

Her song “selfdestructive” not only earned her airplay on renowned radio stations, but also a spot on Spotify’s coveted editorial playlists. As her artistic horizons continue to expand, Pia Baris is now embarking on a new adventure: The dream of performing on a European stage is within reach. Much remains unsaid, but one thing is certain – Pia not only has the voice, but also the vision to leave a lasting mark on the music world.

Now Pia is building on this success: On November 29, 2024, her melancholic ballad “Scars” will be released. Inspired by artists like Billie Eilish, it addresses emotional vulnerability and inner struggles with touching depth.

Valentina Black has a huge following of over 2.5 million followers on social media with a ready-made global fan-base that has been growing organically at incredible pace.

With her mother, also a musician, as a primary influence, Valentina’s musical upbringing was one of wild contrasts; she listened to James Brown, funk, Michael Jackson and Jimi Hendrix while her mother nurtured her with Ella Fitzgerald and Disco music. The hefty presence of rock, r’n’b, pop and funk quickly became telling factors, and a young Valentina was soon singing with local bands twice her age.

During this time she also worked as a dancer for main Italian broadcast channels (Rai and Mediaset). Her professional career took off a few years later, debuting with Jimmy Carl Black, the legendary drummer from Frank Zappa’s ‘Mothers of Inventions’. Impressed by “her golden voice, a beautiful little angel”, he recruited her for the recording sessions of “Freedom Jazz Dance” as singer and Hammond organ player, under the stage name of Valentina Black.

Valentina’s raspy and angelic voice and rhythmic flow has taken her into studios in London, LA, and New York. She has opened for international DJ’s like Fritz Kalkbrenner and many others, and released more than 70 tracks for a number of labels such as Toolroom, King Street Sounds and Kevin Sanderson’s KMS Records. She produced several tracks, including the single ‘Everywhere you go’, topping the charts of Shazam, iTunes and aired worldwide on BBC, Pandora..
