My new album Oh Boy is out now!

For fans of David Bowie, Of Montreal, Disco (the genre), Late of the Pier, Kate Bush and more. It's a rapid cycling romp through funky 70s style disco pop with lots of synths and deep, moody soundtrack pieces with... lots of synths. Hope you like it, I am but an independent artist trying to find cool people like you!

Urban Ghosts - Monochromes in a Colourful Mind

Rushing through life, we become like ghosts

Lost in the urban subways of humanity

Blaring past each other, unaware

Of the beauty that might surrounds us

The speed of life is a relentless force

Dragging us along, whether we want to go or not

We forget to stop and see what's in front of us

To take that breath to appreciate the moment

The world passes us by in a blur

As we chase after our dreams and desires

But occasionally, in the midst of the chaos

We remember to slow down and admire

The beauty that lives in the simple things

The colours of the sunset, the smile of a child

The sound of the birds, the rustling of leaves

These are the moments that make life worthwhile

And practice against becoming ghosts in the urban subways

Open your eyes, focus, and take it all in

Because the speed of life will continue to rush on

But we can choose to slow down and truly live.

I love color walking. It’s a practice that helps mindfulness, as it requires you to be present, and stimulates creativity and curiosity.

Once you fixate your mind on a color, it’s so easy to find it everywhere. Not only in color walks, but in life, you always find whatever you look for.

Song of the Day: Stop (you can let it go) -Jennarie

Song of the Day: Stop (you can let it go) -Jennarie

Montreal-born, Toronto-raised queer pop artist JENNARIE‘s sophomore luscious jazz single ‘Stop (you can let it go),’is a vibey and motivational piece, anchored by luscious vocals and a splash of jazz harmonies reminiscent of Yebba and Amy Winehouse. “I’ve learned to detect the subtle yet potent presence of resentment in my body—a tightening in my chest, a tendency to ruminate on others’ choices…

Interview with Of Montreal

It was an honor to interview the mastermind behind Of Montreal and sole member of the enigmatic indie pop-rock band—however, they are much more than a pop-rock band and infuse a plethora of musical genres in their clever and incomparable work. Kevin Barnes was kind enough to take time to answer the following questions for our curious readers and bring clarity to their new masterpiece Freewave…

Silky White - Monochromes in a Colourful Mind

Silky white wild flowers,

appearing only terribly briefly,

flaunting their beauty

in the face of fleeting time.

Petals as soft as silk,

glimmering in the sunlight,

only to wilt away

before the day's end.

Their delicate nature

only adds to their allure,

a reminder of the perfect impermanence

of the most precious in this world.

But for those lucky enough

to catch a glimpse of their glory,

the memory of their beauty

will remain unmatched.
