If you look at it, you will notice that the members of Ms.Machine are influenced by Scandinavia. If you listen to it, you will clearly feel that the heaviness of the music makes the air thick and the repetition makes it almost hypnotising.<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=72028131\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=e99708\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ms-machine.bandcamp.com\/album\/ms-machine\">Ms.Machine by Ms.Machine<\/a><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Haco<\/h3>\n<p>In June of this year, vocalist, lyricist, composer, and sound artist Haco released a new album, titled <em>Nova Naturo<\/em>, filled with summer vibes. For this album, Haco drew inspiration from mythologies surrounding ideas of rebirth, combining elements that might be unexpected and this all can result in a sense of relaxation.<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=1233710241\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=e99708\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/haco-sound.bandcamp.com\/album\/nova-naturo\">Nova Naturo by Haco<\/a><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Re:O<\/h3>\n<p>Singer-songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist Re:O started as a solo musician during the pandemic in 2020. Currently, she has released a couple of songs that she describes as dark, ambient, cool and crazy (among other keywords) and hopes to be able to release an EP soon.

After the release of <em>Cosmic Lips<\/em>, the duo is planning to come with their second album at the start of 2022. To support that release, vocalist and keyboardist Momo decided to release her <a href=\"https:\/\/momocurly.bandcamp.com\/album\/momo-solo-i\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">first solo jazz album<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3984023647\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=e99708\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/momocurly.bandcamp.com\/album\/cosmic-lips\">Cosmic Lips by Momocurly<\/a><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Get Your Genki<\/h3>\n<p>It is not an unknown name anymore, since Get Your Genki has been releasing music compilations but also separate releases since the end of 2018.
