Double Impact DJ Chills The Summer With Their Hit Single "Looking For A Kiss"

Noize Cartel Records artist "Double Impact DJ" is set to release a hit single titled "Looking for a Kiss" set for worldwide distribution 17 June 2016. "Looking for a Kiss" is fully own-produced cover version of Lou Reed's "Vanishing Act", released in 2003 from his album "Raven".

Double Impact DJ wrote the Single "Looking for a Kiss" after hearing "Vanishing Act" during a circus performance. It immediately came to their heads to use the rather melancholic interpretation and adapt it to merry deep house track. Using an upbeat and the strong voice of Kelsey truly generates a summer feeling in its listeners. It is the objective of Double Impact DJ to deliver music that is memorable, instinctive, and inspired from their inner state, while always keeping true to their roots, and most importantly create a feeling of enjoyment in their listeners worldwide.

"Looking for a Kiss" follows the artists first hit-single titled "Elevate Me", released at Noize Cartel Records in early 2016, which reached number 1 in the global Housecharts; as well as their single titled "Collider", which took the number 2 spot on the charts in 2014! Double Impact set their focus internationally after their single with Tori Adams titled "Sugarpixie" made the top 10% out of 18,000 nominations in the 2014 International Song writing Competition (ISC). The Duo's international exposure led them to collaborations with Grammy winner Judge Earle Holder, Gold & Platinum record producer Jerry Ropero and Jed Rex, as well as completed remixes with the likes of Tritonal & Paris, Blohm and SNKNGL. Teamed with Noize Cartel Records and their successful progression of releases in 2015, "Looking for a Kiss" is expected to follow the standard for quality music releases in 2016.

"Looking For A Kiss" is a version of "Vanishing Act" (Reed). Published by EMI Music Publishing Ltd o/b/o Lou Reed Music. Used by permission. All rights reserved.

The LP is a conscious effort to push Watermark High forward, the sound of an artist who has discovered himself, revealing a unique personal aesthetic.

Performing as Watermark High since 2012, the self-titled LP follows 2013's Murmurs, 2014's Bright Black and 2015's For Good EPs. Watermark High is a remixer and live performer in addition to maintaining his production schedule. 2016 will see Watermark High continuing to build his profile in his native South Africa, performing at electronic music festivals and clubs while also shifting his attention to international touring opportunities.

I undertook to Latin dances course over 6 years and without imagined that one day it would influence my creativity. But here, Samba Makossa was born in this desert crossing... But for me there are only two options: either you give up and disappears into the abyss, or you resist by fighting with all your forces to head out of the water. And I always chose the second option, oh yes, the one to fight and continue to live in joy. Because I do not want to give pleasure to anyone to rejoice in my misfortune."

Acclaimed Haitian American Singer/Songwriter And Performer Natalie Jean Announces Release Of Two Exciting New Singles


Natalie Jean is a very rare kind of vocalist. Winning recognition across the most diverse of musical genres and quite comfortable performing in English, French and Creole. In exciting news, building up to the release of her next album, Jean has recently dropped two new infectious pop singles "Please Don't" and "Now I See" and fans old and new couldn't be happier.

Many people would say that the best artists have the most diverse influences, bringing them together into something new. Few performers meet that description as well as award winning Haitian American singer/songwriter Natalie Jean, a second generation artist raised with music surrounding her since a child, later seeing her interests expand into poetry, and practically every style of music a person could name, including Pop, Country, Dance, Heavy Metal and much more. Jean recently announced the release of two new singles setting the stage for her coming, and very highly anticipated, new album. The two new songs "Please Don't" (written by Michael Peloso) and "Now I See", written by Jean herself, are vocal driven, highly emotional pop and certainly show Jean in her best, and most compelling light.

"I'm so very excited about my two new songs, both musically and lyrically," commented Jean, about 'Now I See' and 'Please Don't'. "I think these show an aspect of my next album that fans are going to love and I hope they build interest in the rest of my work."

Jean is certainly no stranger to critical praise. "Now I See" and "Please Don't" build off of the recent success of her being nominated in the Best Dance Category in the 2014 Artist in Music Awards, as well as being nominated five times in The 2014 Indie Music Music Channel Awards for Best Blues Song, Best Blues Artist, Best Jazz Song, Best Best Rap Song, and Best R&B Artist and being nominated by the LA Music Awards in the Best Pop category.

"Now I See" and "Please Don't" are scheduled to be released on June 10th, 2016. Her new album has a July 8th, 2016 release date, with excitement rising for both releases not only with fans, but also with the independent music press and media.

Early feedback for the new Natalie Jean singles from those who have heard review copies has been passionate.

Elaine G., a Boston based blogger, recently remarked, "I am really a fan of Natalie Jean's pop and dance songs and I'm happy to say her two new singles are very emotional pop that show off her hypnotic voice. 'Please Don't' has lyrics that touched me since I've been in a quite similar situation, being in a relationship where the man was doing things he promised he wouldn't and all the problems that led to. Natalie Jean's honesty really comes through in her voice and I think this single is destined to really raise her profile. "Now I See" is also amazing. Five stars for both. If the rest of her new album is of the same high quality, it's going to really make a mark."

Acclaimed Songwriter Andreas Carlsson Becomes Advisor And Investor In Online Music Recording Studio Soundtrap


Award-winning Andreas Carlsson, one of the world's most accomplished music producers and a songwriter for the stars, is joining online music recording studio Soundtrap as an advisor and investor. During his prodigious career, Carlsson has written songs for the likes of Katy Perry, the Backstreet Boys, Celine Dion, Britney Spears, Bon Jovi, Carrie Underwood, Ricky Martin and many more. Carlsson's many mega-hits have helped at least four singers win the coveted "diamond award" bestowed on those recording artists who have sold over 100 million albums throughout their career. He has received five Grammy nominations, two Emmy awards and is currently working with Cirque du Soleil's new Broadway show, 'Paramour' where he has written ten songs including the opening act and main ballad.

The innovative concept behind Soundtrap and its huge potential are what attracted Carlsson, he said. Soundtrap is the first online music and audio recording studio where users can find and collaborate with people from all over the world on a multitude of devices across iOS, Android, Chromebook, Mac and Windows platforms. See video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xheoUkbyhE4

One of Soundtrap's most important features is how accessible and easy to use it is compared to other online recording studios. As someone who runs two renowned music schools in Sweden, Carlsson sees particular promise in Soundtrap's impact on young budding musicians. "I wish Soundtrap had existed when I was starting out," explained Carlsson. "Such tools were -- and are -- way too complex and dampen creative ability. Soundtrap makes it simple to compose and share music, 'democratizing' music making so anyone can do it."

In fact, one focus of Soundtrap is the education market, where it is being used by teachers and students in K-12 and above and it has been named "The Best Website for Teaching and Learning 2015" by the American Association of School Librarians.

"With his deep connections in the worldwide contemporary music scene, Andreas is an ideal advisor and partner for us," said Per Emanuelsson, CEO of Soundtrap. "He knows the who's who in the industry and understands where the music industry is headed. Plus, we share the view that the digitization that's happening on the distribution side of the music industry is inevitably picking up the pace on the production side as well, creating many new opportunities for us."

Carlsson is a prime example of the outsized role Swedes are playing in the music world today. As the New Yorker stated in 2014, "Swedish influence is everywhere in pop music." Carlsson himself lives in both Sweden and Los Angeles and his towering career is a reminder of why Sweden has become the third largest music exporter in the world despite its diminutive population. In fact, half of the top 10 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 were written or produced by Swedes in May of 2012.

About Soundtrap
Soundtrap is the first online music recording studio to work across all operating systems, Mac, iOS, Android, Windows and Chromebook, where you collaborate with music makers from all around the world in an easy-to-use browser, cloud-based system. Headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, birthplace of many successful music tech startups such as Spotify, Soundcloud, Tidal and Beats Music, the company also has an office in Silicon Valley.
