Get ready for a high-energy workout with this blast from a past tune by Promantz. Thought released in 2021, “Your Vibe” has throwback elements from the 90s with heavy synth riffs, slick R&B vocals, and a dark bassline.

It features an honest feel with the instrumentation featuring a chilled organ, an acoustic guitar strumming along, and a subdued guitar that surprises listeners at the end. The turning point of “Turned Over” is the raw emotions displayed in the vocals. If you like James Bay, Kodaline, and James Blunt, then you will love “Turned Over”.
“Midnight Man” by Jaguar Sun
Explore It is a nod to those midnight summer walks where all you can do is think back on old memories and think about where you’ll be tomorrow. It is a mellow indie-rock tune with a lush blend of soothing vocals and acoustic instrumentation. This is the perfect tune to cruise around on a sunny day, to relax after a long day of work.
“Laura” by Sofi Gev
“We used a French Connection analog synth to produce the song’s signature piano melody and added Moog bass, strings, and electric guitar to add character and emotion. I could never have improved on the original, but I hope listeners enjoy it and that it leads more people to Natasha’s music.”
Sofi Gev is back with her cover of the impressive song “Laura” by Bat for Lashes. Using the instrumentation as a basis for the song’s emotion, Sofi Gev gives “Laura” a personal touch with her own musicality. The verses swell with each musical note until it crashes with full-blown energy and passion at the chorus. But Sofi Gev doesn’t do this with the instrumentation, but her voice as well as how she performs the songs in something to listen for. It is such a touching cover for a lovely song!
“Romantica” by Peter Cavallo
Enjoy this marvelous orchestra piece by Australian musician Peter Cavallo. It features him on solo violin with Prague String Orchestra. It is the perfect tune to study with as it has dynamic sections yet calmed with soft strings melodies. It is quite a relaxing listen!
