The post NOVEMBER SONG OF THE MONTH: “controlme” by H3VEN appeared first on Space Hound Records.

No fancy studio, no expensive gear—just a headset mic and raw creativity. That’s how this emerging hip-hop, indie artist from Michigan made October’s winning Song of the month, “Not Alone.” 

Despite only starting his music journey in late 2023, H3VEN’s introspective lyricism and ambient sound has resonated with listeners worldwide, and his track, “Not Alone,” is no exception. 

Although the track has an upbeat feel, H3VEN reveals a deeper message beneath the surface. 

“The song is about questioning everything—society, authority, and even yourself,” he explains. “It’s a reflection of fear and control.”

Aside from its catchy melody, H3VEN feels that the genuine expression of “Not Alone” is what his listeners resonate with the most.

“It doesn’t shy away from uncomfortable truths,” he says, “and that vulnerability connects with people on a deeper level.”

When it comes to the process for creating his tracks, H3VEN’s approach is both spontaneous and intuitive. 

“I never usually write any of my music,” he admits. “It’s all made up on the spot.”

To do this, H3VEN hums along to the instrumental, feeling out the rhythm until he locks into a flow. Once it clicks, he starts adding lyrics, allowing the song to take shape.

With just the essentials, H3VEN creates music that is honest, impactful and irresistibly appealing. His work is proof that true talent and originality can always find its way to the top.

Congratulations to H3VEN for winning Song of the Month and to all the winners who won Song of the Stream for the month of October!

Hailing from Lake Placid, Florida, Velvet Horizon is an alternative/indie folk artist who has combined his atmospheric sound with Irish rapper and producer, Immute, to create the voted Song of the Month of September, “TRIALS.” 

Through a fellow artist by the name Moonlight $ky, someone Velvet Horizon had known since childhood, Velvet Horizon and Immute initially connected over a call and instantly hit it off.

Despite living in different countries, the two artists managed to create a sound that has captured the attention of listeners worldwide. With cinematic energy, dark pop vibes and a touch of nerdcore, “TRIALS” became a must-listen for fans of immersive storytelling and high-intensity music. 

When asked about the inspiration behind the winning track, Velvet Horizon shared, “The love for horror, but most of all, the passionate love for ‘The Outlast Trials’ and the ‘Outlast’ series in general.” 

Although the track was originally conceived as a tribute to the game developers of “Outlast”, “TRIALS” evolved into a cinematic and layered track touching on broader themes of mental health.

“The lyrics to me show how fast somebody can decline from being mentally stable to a drastic change of being clinically insane or unstable,” explains Immute. “There are many ways of losing the mind, and I think that it is a very popular occurrence for such a thing to happen in today’s standards, which is why I think the lyrics would suit the feeling, especially for these times.”

With its dark pop and nerdcore elements, “TRIALS” has drawn comparisons to Imagine Dragons, a parallel that Immute acknowledges.

“It sounds like an Imagine Dragons-themed song, but with a twist, since it dives into nerdcore, mental health and abstract sounding cadences that complement the instrumental.”

The creative process behind “TRIALS” was both meticulous and chaotic. Velvet Horizon focused on lyrics, vocals and crafting a cinematic feel, while Immute contributed to the lyrics, engineering and additional production elements.

“We avoided doing a lot of digital editing or copy and pasting and spent hours recording multiple upon multiple takes in different voices or different distances to make the crowd effects we had more natural,” Velvet Horizon says.

Creating the track did not come without its hurdles.

 “I almost lost the FLP once,” admitted Immute. “I never told Velvet this, because he’s known to lose projects too and he would be like, ‘See!’” 

Despite the challenges, both artists agreed that the most rewarding part was hearing the final product and seeing fans’ reactions. 

“Showing people who don’t think I can sing this song in particular is such a great feeling when they eat their own expectations,” Velvet Horizon shares.

Meanwhile, Immute found satisfaction in pushing his artistic boundaries beyond rap.

“I’ve never seen myself as a singer, but getting to make something like ‘TRIALS’ is a huge deal to me because I hit some of the notes correctly,” he says. 

The response from fans has been overwhelmingly positive, particularly from horror and gaming communities.

“A lot of ‘Outlast’ fans really enjoyed it from the feedback that I’ve gotten,” Immute says.

While “TRIALS” continues to be a successful collaboration between Immute and Velvet Horizon, it wasn’t their first. In fact, their very first collaboration titled, “Lovers to Fighters” was a joke diss track challenge from friends which led to a project titled, “It IZ What It IZ.” 

Although Immute and Velvet Horizon could not continue as an official duo, when given the chance, they still enjoy creating tracks such as “TRIALS” together. Looking ahead, both artists are open to future collaborations. 

“There will be a rise of ‘It IZ What It IZ’ again, I hope,” Velvet Horizon teases. 

“Most Definitely!” Immute echoes. 

Those interested in listening to “TRIALS” can listen on all major streaming platforms now.

Congratulations to Velvet Horizon and Immute for their Song of the Month win, and to all the Song of the Stream winners for the month of September!

Following his Song of the Month win of April 2024, Irish music artist and producer, Immute, is back at it again. This time, he has impressed listeners with his House/EDM track titled, “ABSOLUTE!” 

“It’s a club song,” says Immute, “And I think that the ‘drink, drink, drink, drink’ part could be a good trend starter.” 

Although the track is described as a drinking song inspired by Stormae’s “Alor on Danse,” Immute believes it can be understood as even more. 

“Everybody deserves a night away from hard work,” says Immute, “Whether it’s drinking and partying, or doing something else they like.”

His creative process for creating the track is the perfect example. With three bottles of Captain Morgan and a few shots of Absolut Vodka, Immute gained the energy to start writing, stacking his vocals and rapping to (without slurring) his track. He may have had to hold in his sickness in the process, but the end result was a song that he says is one he can for once listen to on repeat from his own catalogue.

Congratulations to Immute for winning Song of the Month and to all the Song of the Month nominees and winners of the Song of the Stream for the month of August!

NED5 is a dynamic band whose versatility with pop-rock and indie-rock, alongside a punk edge, has resonated with fans far and wide. Comprised of Carol (main vocals), Matos (main guitar), Vidu (keyboard/second guitar), Silva (bass), and Eugénio (drums/second vocals), NED5 has quickly made a name for themselves with their emotive and relatable music.

From Portugal, the band initially formed during the pandemic as a school project involving Silva, Vidu and Eugénio. Their chemistry was undeniable, prompting them to continue playing together outside of school, rehearsing at Eugénio’s house. Matos soon joined the group, and after their first concert, Carol was brought on as the lead singer, allowing Eugénio to focus on the drums. 

NED5’s winning single, “I Would Lie,” perfectly encapsulates their unique sound. Inspired by Carol’s personal experiences, the song delves into the emotional turmoil of unreciprocated love. 

“This song is special because it truly shows what I felt during a not-so-good phase of my life,” Carol explains. “It’s a sort of realization that I could have done things differently, but it was already too late.”

The song narrates the desperation of a girl waiting for her beloved’s effort in their relationship. In a bid to get his attention, she decides it’s better to lie and hide her true feelings. 

“I sat down, grabbed my keyboard, and just started letting it all out,” says Carol. “All the feelings I had stuck inside me turned into a song.” With its raw emotion and sad lyrics, it soon became the relatable song it is today. 

“I Would Lie” is one of NED5’s two main singles, the other being “Dancing Dress,” which showcases their punk side. Both tracks are set to be featured on their upcoming EP, along with three new songs that will further explore their signature mix of genres.

NED5 continues to captivate audiences with their heartfelt music, and with their upcoming EP, they aim to connect even more deeply with their fans. On top of their upcoming EP, NED5 has also been focusing on live performances and opportunities. To stay up to date on NED5, follow their Instagram and stream their winning song “I Would Lie” on Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube.
