Slimdog Productions - From Narita With Love

Slimdog Productions makes a return to M.P.R Chill with the track entitled 'From Narita With Love'

 

 

Released April 2024

"Slimdog Productions, the brainchild of David Bell Jr, hailing from Colorado Springs, Colorado. David's musical odyssey began in 2004 on the then flourishing platform, MySpace, where he took his first steps into the world of rhythms. In 2005, he joined with two other talented individuals to form the formidable group known as “Block Scholars.” They took home the prestigious “Hip Hop Song Of The Year” award at the Hollywood Music In Media Awards for their song “All Of My Life" in 2014. Despite the group's eventual dissolution, It was on his third solo album, “Slimstrumentals Vol III,” where David's musical ingenuity truly shined. The album's standout track, "SuperFly'd," captured the attention of listeners far beyond the borders of Colorado. In a surprising turn of events, "SuperFly'd" climbed the charts in Norway, making waves on not one, but two iTunes charts. On January 21, 2024, the song secured a notable position, claiming position 13 on the Dance chart and position 84 on the General Genres chart, then again charting for a 3rd time on the France Dance charts at 46 on June 25th, 2024. As David Bell Jr continues to make his way in the industry, one thing remains clear: his music has the power to captivate hearts and minds around the world. Slimdog Productions invites listeners to embark on a journey through sound, where the possibilities are limitless and the experiences unforgettable.".

Monssun - Wonderland XX

Playing on M.P.R Chill is the 2019 release entitled 'Wonderland XX' by Monssun.

 

 

Release date: Jun 28, 2019

Monssun is a musician and producer based in Lithuania. "I mostly create electronic & electropop music, though over the years many different styles were written, so at this point I see myself as a multi-genre artist".

"Through the releases you will find some chillout music, a bit of drum n bass, electronic tracks that feature synths and ambience soundscapes accompanied with some progressive beats. While first focusing on purely instrumental compositions, I'm adding more vocals to my music and finding my own sound. My main focus are electronic & electropop genres, but I seldom do write something in between like experimental stuff, soundtracks, and I also do covers that you can mostly find on YouTube, along with lots of officially unreleased productions".

CR Srikanth - Ghosa (The Call)

The forthcoming single release by CR Srikanth entitled 'Ghosa (The Call)' is now playing on M.P.R Ambient.

 

 

Release - February 2025

"Ghosa" is an evocative orchestral composition that takes the listener on a journey through a world of doom-laden mysticism and celestial calls. Crafted entirely with the powerful and versatile soundscape of Omnisphere, this piece marries the grandeur of orchestral arrangements with the ethereal resonance of mystical textures.

The track unfolds with a sense of impending doom, as dark, brooding harmonies build a foreboding atmosphere. Layers of ominous drones, otherworldly vocal textures, and rich, resonant tones intertwine to create an immersive sonic landscape. As the composition progresses, shimmering chimes and heavenly pads pierce through the darkness, symbolizing divine intervention—a call from the heavens.

"Ghosa" is not just a piece of music; it’s an auditory representation of cosmic judgment and the ethereal balance between righteousness and sin. The celestial soundscapes evoke the presence of higher realms, while the orchestral undertones provide a grounded, emotional weight. This composition is a testament to the power of sound in storytelling, blending doom, divinity, and orchestral majesty into a singular, unforgettable experience.
