“This is music that is wholly authentic, incredibly bold, and nothing short of stunning. Each song is unparalleled and engaging in a way that is commercially viable while still maintaining an indie skeleton.” -Absolute Punk

This song doesn’t even have a name. We were surprised to find it in our inbox so quickly after The King’s death yesterday, so we asked Tanlines‘ Jesse Cohen what the deal was. He said, “We were working in the studio on something else when the news broke and I happened to be playing with a synth that sounded like the one from ‘Beat It.’ So Eric figured out the guitar line and we made this tribute quickly.” You can see them pulling this together briefly in the above video. As we said before, the breadth of MJ’s influence and spark are immeasurable and maybe the good of his passing will be its reignition. Let this be the beginning.

Maybe it’s her Detroit upbringing…maybe it’s her recent signing to the classic Motown label, but whatever it is, L.A.-based singer/songwriter MoZella brings a forthright classic soul/pop component to her fresh and frothy songs. For her sophomore as-yet-untitled album due later this year – and her first for new home Motown – MoZella delivers a potent mix of bright pop melodies and contemporary beats with just enough retro production sound to keep things interesting and a cut above most of what’s out there parading as modern pop music. We’ve followed her through the past five years of on-again off-again label support and solo acoustic club dates and it’s gratifying to see MoZella return with a new batch of fleshed out songs.
It’s a skillful balancing act between the demands of the pervasive “hip-pop” and remaining true to her own songwriting passions, but the 27-year-old performer manages to pull it off with songs such as the 60’s-styled dancefloor gem “Freezing” or the acoustic-meets-synthbeat single “More Of You”. As loyal readers will attest, we’re pretty selective when it comes to the current crop of radio wannahits — there’s just so much mindless formula and marketing strategies at work (not to mention autotune vocal slouching). So when we DO hear something special – like MoZella – it gives us a fleeting hope for the masses.
