SoCal singer-songwriter Kaz Murphy digs into the roots of folk and Americana on OLD PROTEST RECORDS, turning a love of old protest songs into something loose, earthy and distinctly his own. Acoustic guitar sits at the centre, surrounded by fiddle, mandolin and a touch of bluegrass warmth, giving the track the feeling of an old record playing somewhere on a wooden porch. Murphy has been making music for decades, moving through folk, art-rock, country and anti-folk, and that history comes through in the relaxed storytelling and lived-in character of his voice. OLD PROTEST RECORDS is less about polished nostalgia than keeping an old musical language alive, with Murphy weaving fragments of the songs that shaped him into a new, flowing piece. It feels weathered, human and slightly ragged around the edges — exactly where this kind of folk song belongs.

Going down this November and December with Empty Shell Casing

E. Lundquist’s Chasing, featuring Michael Damani, settles into a smooth space where soul, R&B and downtempo grooves meet warm electronic textures. The track moves at an unhurried pace, letting soft synths, melodic guitar lines and Damani’s silky vocals sit naturally together without crowding the arrangement. There’s a calm, reflective quality to the production, but it never feels empty, with subtle layers adding movement beneath the surface. Lundquist has a strong ear for atmosphere here, keeping the groove understated while allowing the melody to carry the emotional side of the song. Chasing feels like a late-night listen, relaxed and spacious, with enough warmth in the instrumentation to keep it grounded. It’s a thoughtful piece of soul-inflected electronic music that finds its strength in restraint rather than excess.

The Grapes bring a scrappy indie rock edge to Repeat Mode, with ringing guitars, a steady driving rhythm and vocals that keep the emotional tension close to the surface. The track has a restless, slightly rough-around-the-edges character that suits its theme of being caught up in someone long after a relationship has started to fall apart. Rather than leaning too heavily into gloom, the band keeps the arrangement moving, giving the song a natural momentum while the repeated patterns mirror that feeling of going back to the same thoughts again and again. There’s a good balance between melody and rawness here, with the guitars providing enough bite without overpowering the songwriting. Repeat Mode feels immediate, uncomplicated and genuinely indie rock, with a nervous energy that makes the track stick.
