Komorebi: “Rebirth”

By: Jack Anderson

New Delhi-based singer, pianist, composer and choir practitioner Taran Marwah has been rapidly ascending past her local scene over the past half decade. Adopting the Japanese term for “sunlight filtering through leaves”, Komorebi, as her musical moniker, Marwah’s been creating a seductive blend of electronic and traditional Indian instrumentation, resulting in tinges of trip hop that recall the likes of Portishead, Björk, and Massive Attack. Komorebi’s scored for major streaming networks, held down her fair share of festivals, and accrued plenty of acclaim, and yet Marwah’s still climbing.

Keep on the lookout for two new bi-lingual records from Komorebi within the next year and wash off the first half of this work week with her latest single and music video “Rebirth”!

Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol: “Peaches”

It’s fuzzy, it’s doomy, and it’s relentless. The new single from Austin “doom-woppers” Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol keeps in stride with the group’s brand of metal-meets-melodic hard rock, giving you a two-and-a-half-minute riff bomb of what’s in store for their upcoming album Ca$h Grab, out later this year.

Mean Jolene: “Private Plane”

The new single from Ausitn power-pop outfit Mean Jolene has it all: beautifully harmonized gang vocals with a 1960’s shimmer, 90’s female rock guitar hooks and grit, and an earnest look at the double-edged sword of escapism: a necessity for self-preservation pocked with a compulsion towards innocent complacency. And there’s something about the energy of […]
