We can enjoy listening to Krewella’s new EP "Ammunition"

Jahan Yousaf, a member of Krewella, said "krewella is back? nah we’ve been here all along" on her Twitter page. Krewella, an electro/rock duo by Yamine and Jahan Yousaf sisters, released the new EP Ammunition on May 20. I love their new songs and celebrate their new departure as Krewella.



This EP includes 6 songs: Beggars, Broken Record, Marching On, Surrender The Throne, Ammunition, and Can’t Forget You. I am impressed strongly by Marching On, Surrender The Throne, and Can’t Forget You in particular. I want to shout the impressive phrase "We’re marching on!"

They delivered the message "We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it" to their fans called "Krew".

Stella.J.C, a pianist and composer, released the song Stronger Every Day in Japan. I am in love with her sound and melody in this song. Three musicians play: Wouter Hamel as vocal, Yusuke Hirado on keyboard and Shingo Sekiguchi on guiter.

Zedd – True Colors

Zedd’s new album True Colors was out. I want all of music lovers to listen to the album. He does not delivered his music to limited listeners, but persons who love both popular music and EDM. I hope that you will listen to some songs taken from the album if you are interested in popular music. Let me introduce my following text about my favorite songs included in this album:

Transmission [feat. Logic & X Ambassadors] Sounds like popular music which caught on the world in the late 20th century, for example, Jamiroquai. However, the synthesizer sound in this song is generated with software in 2010's.

Sound of software synthesizer such as reFX NEXUS2 has updated at short intervals. Old-time hardware synthesizers may not be able to generate the present electronic sound. You can taste present progressive sounds in this song.

Papercut [feat. Troye Sivan] I visualize a calm sea when listening to the early part. I do not see any waves. Troye’s song is like a monologue. The voice is floating away into a blank space.

The mode is switched in the latter part of the song. The sound changes to being dynamic. You will be swallowed by the world of the attractive sound. His song is like a dialogue for a significant other.

Daisy Your heart will be melted slowly by the voice of Julia Michaels and strings which is conducted by Ron Fair. Julia’s soft voice matches the melody written by Zedd.

All of the melodies are impressive. I love the melody of the part “When you running, running…” in particular. A stream of the melodies is beautiful and comfortable.

Note: the following is the story about the three singles on my Medium: “Zedd – I Want You To Know/Addicted To A Memory/Beautiful Now”.

Zedd – I Want You To Know/Addicted To A Memory/Beautiful Now

Zedd's new album True Colors will be soon released. Three singles came out from the album: I Want You To Know, Addicted To A Memory and Beautiful Now. You can listen to all the songs on YouTube.

I Want You To Know [feat. Selena Gomez]



Selena Gomez joins the song as a vocalist. Her voice and Zedd's synthesizer sounds go head-to-head and glitter as the sparks fly. Synthesizer sounds flow throughout my body like blood. My body is suffused with the sounds. Want to dance!

Addicted To A Memory [feat. Bahari]



The synthesizer sounds in this song look like flying pieces of a block of ice broken with something acuate such as a pickel. The sounds include Bahari's voice and lead to the atmosphere like a religious festival. Believers worship electronic sounds.

Beautiful Now [feat. Jon Bellion]



I want to sing along to the impressive phrase "BAH BAH BAH BABABAH BAH BAH BABABAH BAH BAH BAH BABABAH BABABABA" with all of music lovers. The phrase is repeated and mixed with strong bass drum to touch listeners' heart.
