Ace Motel Georgia and Kamil are an alternative indie-pop duo from Manchester that make up Ace Motel. They have just released their single 'Still With Me' taken from their upcoming EP. This latest single is deliciously smooth and soothing, with a relaxing, chill-out sound. The duo say they've been influenced by numerous genres but a few specific influences include The Japanese House, Bon Iver, and The XX. When it comes to writing their music the pair are trying to be as original as possible, steering away from conventional song structures and they say they are aiming to create an "all-consuming atmosphere". With the glimmering vocals shining bright throughout the song they certainly do create that all-consuming feel. The New Investors The New Investors are an exciting indie-alternative 5-piece hailing from Copenhagen. They are another exciting band who have emerged onto the alternative scene. They've recently released their latest single 'Deborah' and this full-blooded single is taken from their latest album 'In Love With Everyone'. Musically this latest single explores the fusion of rock with a touch of electronic pop, the outcome of which has been a song packed full of enticing hooks aided by frighteningly formidable vocals. The vocals might be strong and powerful but the lyrics ring of despair and helplessness. As the band explain, the lyrics explore themes of "loneliness and ponderous routines of idle Sundays". The verses are subdued and somehow wander into the heavy-duty, full-blooded chorus. This single and indeed the album really highlights the difference from their debut album which was an album to listen to holding a Pina Colada whilst taking in those beach vibes but with a jumper near by due to the undertones of woe and sadness but this latest single has said goodbye to the beach vibes and replaced them with a darker, melancholic feel but somehow maintaining the catchy guitar sound.
