New York rapper, artist and entrepreneur Tabby Wakes is a breath of fresh air in her hometown’s musical scene. After making a splash this winter with single and video “Tabby Night” (“A blend of trap, rap, and some catchy pop vibes… an alluring work of art” – Earmilk), she showcases more of her melodic sound with new single “Angel.” Collaborating once again with co-producer Brenmar, “Angel” is a bittersweet bop taken from her forthcoming Fool’s Gold EP, a slow jam about old crushes perfect for late nights and early mornings alike. Turn it up!
Brooklyn-born Tabby Wakes is the latest original voice to take flight on Fool’s Gold, via the irresistible “Tabby Night.” Featuring Brenmar on the boards with Tabby, “Tabby Night” is a candy coated banger with a dark center, teasing all of the unexpectedly catchy sounds Tabby has cooked up for her debut EP, out soon on FG.
Incorporating elements of R&B, dance and pop with a punk spirit, Canada’s HERO has no genre. Describing his approach as “putting familiar sounds through a VHS player,” HERO’s debut Dirty Work EP on Fool’s Gold features six self-produced tracks exploring the underbelly of romance over a darkly catchy, electronic pulse. From the title track (with its striking music video, filmed in Oslo with director Johannes Greve Muskat) to slow jam “Stay the Night,” Dirty Work might be FG’s most cinematic release to date, and the sound of an auspicious new artist merging his influences into one singular vision.
