Will's Weekend Wrap-Up
Howdy, howdy, NoiseTraders! Another weekend, another weekend wrap-up… ain't life grand like that? We've got some really exciting features coming down the pike for you guys and I can excitedly say that we're almost done pinning the bow on our latest NoiseTrade Eastside Manor Session. It'll be out next week (more details below) and we couldn't be more stoked for it! We're also doing some interesting things behind the scenes for our artists, so if that includes you, please take a quick moment and fill out our short Artist Survey (located HERE). Other than that, enjoy your weekend, my friends. Alrighty, get into all the things! – WILL HODGE, NoiseTrade Music Editor/Community Manager
David Ramirez — NoiseTrade Sampler
David Ramirez
NoiseTrade Sampler
With the newest installment of our NoiseTrade Eastside Manor Sessions hitting our digital shelves this coming Thursday, I thought it might be a good idea to bring anyone who's not familiar with David Ramirez up to speed. With a confessional, acoustic songwriting style and a whiskey-soaked, road-weary rasp, Ramirez sonically lands somewhere between Nebraska-era Springsteen and Ryan Adams circa Cold Roses/Jacksonville City Nights/29. Ramirez opens his NoiseTrade Sampler with a beautiful acoustic version of "The Bad Days" from 2013's The Rooster EP, but it is his closing cover of Radiohead's "Fake Plastic Trees" from Radioplay that really showcases his range, both vocally and emotionally.
Alma —
Alma
"For A Poet" (single)
Simply self-described as a "will-she-or-won't-she story about accidentally falling in love", Alma's "For A Poet" is a soulful jazz-pop ditty that brings to mind Corinne Bailey Rae or a poppier Lauryn Hill. "For A Poet" initially came out last summer, a few months before her debut full length Tactics was officially released. Both releases can be found on our site, so consider "For A Poet" an aural appetizer to whet your appetite for the full-plate offering of Tactics. Her Madison, WI-to-Chicago, IL-to-Los Angeles, CA journey shines through in her musical melting pot style. If your ears are in the market for smooth poetics set over jazz-laced guitars and R&B-flavored; rhythms, Alma may have exactly what you need.
Hanging From The Rafters — Box of Songs
Hanging From The Rafters
Box of Songs
I seriously can't get enough of Hanging From The Rafters and their dreamy debut album Box of Songs. The ambient trip-hop trio has such an experimental sound and each of the eight songs on the album is truly transformative in its own unique way. Mixing trance-like guitars, hypnotic grooves, and lead singer Lolly Brown's enchanting vocal, Hanging From The Rafters provides a lush, layered listening experience.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle — The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (eBook)
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (eBook)
With Sir Ian McKellan's Mr. Holmes still holding strong at movie theaters, why not brush up on some classic Sherlock with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. Compiling the first 12 stories of the infamous detective's adventures, this eBook echoes the way they were initially published as a single collection back in 1892. There's even an additional interactive layer in this version as well.
