Interview: SOLLUS

SOLLUS is the musical project by British music producer, Harrison Brown. Having recently released his debut single, “The Lights”, Brown is bringing about an electronic sounds that blends the likes of indie, house, hip-hop and ambience - something away from the norm. With the release of his EP on the horizon, Legendary Kids Press was able to speak to him about music, his production work and his beginnings.

How would you describe your music to those who have never listened to your before?

My interest in older music (50s, 60s, 70s) has had a large influence in the music I make. I’m drawn to the raw qualities it encompasses, such as originality and the lack of technology artists had at their disposal. I’ve tried to incorporate such qualities into something current that’s influenced by indie and electronic music. Each song has a different feel and reflects the music genres of interest to me, such as RnB, dance, soul, rock, hip-hop and the list goes on.

You’ve stated that you’ll be releasing your debut EP later on this year. Can you give us any more details on when it’ll be released?

The EP is ready to be released. I not long [ago] released the debut single, “The Lights” and thought the best way I could get my music across to the small audience I have would be to feed it out slowly and build up interest. But, realistically, I plan to release the EP before the end of February.

Review: Keys & Corridors - Thieves (EP)

Thieves is the debut EP from Akron, Ohio alternative rock band, Keys & Corridors. Featuring an alternative sound that blends the likes of pop-punk, acoustic guitar and melodic rock, the EP is a strong release from a band who are sure to make an impact on the scene.

Thieves beings with a strong alternative rock vibe, with track “Exchange” showcasing Keys & Corridors’ energy and instrumental ability. Dual female vocals offer a vibe that’s similar to that of Courage My Love, and the track is one of the EP’s strongest. It’s followed by the melodic “Abandon Ship”, which features vocals from Atlas Uncharted’s Dommie Frusteri. Starting off slower than “Exchange”, it builds into melodic rock that’s heavily guitar driven and better shows off vocalist Kaylene Widdoes’ vocal ability.

Review: Tonight Alive - How Does It Feel? (Single)

Australian quintet Tonight Alive have released the latest single off their upcoming album. Titled “How Does It Feel?”, the song starts off with some solo, high-tempo guitar riffs until about five seconds in, when a medium-to-fast pace drumbeat kicks in, followed by backing vocals from vocalist Jenna McDougall.

Lyrically, this song holds the emotions of feeling trapped in a possible relationship - or friendship - because the other person thinks they’re always right and won’t listen to anyone else, while wanting everything to go their own way. This is shown in the lyrics “How does it feel? / How can you say? / That I’m the only one / You only want your way.”

Review: Sollus - The Lights (Single)

“The Lights” is the debut single from British music producer and artist, SOLLUS. Real name Harrison Brown, SOLLUS is a solo project that melds light, electronic ambience with an indie sound that creates something that’s outside the box - something completely unique. “The Lights” is the world’s introduction to this new and refreshing sound, and is also a look into what Brown’s upcoming EP will possibly deliver.

Starting out with an ambient and light sound - one reminiscent of the type of music you’d hear during films from the 1950s or 1960s - “The Lights” builds into keyboard and electronic combinations that blend together seamlessly. About a minute into the track, listeners are introduced to Caralis vocalist Dan Frau, who provides vocals. Frau and Brown’s partnership goes back to Caralis’ beginnings and the pair’s friendship shows in “The Lights”, with Frau’s ambient and soft vocals melding with Brown’s instrumentation almost effortlessly. They stand out just enough to be heard, but not too much as to override the backing track. The addition of backing vocals during the chorus is also a noticeable feature, creating a subtle but strong aspect to the track. The track continues in the same way as the minutes pass before returning listeners to the old-timey sound they were introduced with, bringing things full circle.
