OUT NOW - ‘Farewell Metro Boy’ by Jonathan Levy
On his swirling, musical collage ‘Farewell Metro Boy’, multi-instrumentalist @jonathanlevy_79 invited a cast of collaborators to build playful, poignant, groove-driven and jazz-tinged tracks, allowing each to evolve in unpredictable ways. Produced by @nitaihershkovits , they improvised these songs into existence, before calling in friends like trumpeter @avishkes , synth-master @rejoicer1 , drummer @_daniel_dor and more to set them in motion.

OUT NOW - ‘The Good I Have (Is With You)’ by @jonathanlevy_79
The second single from Jonathan Levy’s new LP, ‘Farewell Metro Boy’, captures a floating feeling we all know: the sweetness of being seen by another human. Levy built the track with musical copilot @nitaihershkovits who produced the album, and the two dance around each other: Levy on guitar, fretless bass and vocals, and Hershkovits on twirling keyboards. ‘The Good I Have’ is a gently-swaying hug, with Levy’s layered “oohs” helping the track squeeze a little tighter. It’s just one surprise of Levy’s welcome new chapter.

OUT NOW - ‘Please Repeat’ by @jonathan_levy79
The first single from Jonathan Levy’s upcoming LP, ‘Farewell Metro Boy’, comes in the midst of great chaos. It seems increasingly rare to find the natural patterns of inward and outward - and that’s where music comes in, reminding us that it’s always there, under it all. Through jangling percussion, echoing synths and lumbering bass, all falling in and out of sync, the song, “expands, contracts, circles back and changes shape”, says Levy. “It persists, just not in a straight line”. Producer and keyboardist @nitaihershkovits who produced the album helped steer the album into new sonic territory; the mesmerizing ‘Please Repeat’ is our point of entry. May we find our moments of ease within this swirl of life.
