Tyson is back with his next single 'After You're Gone' and it's a full-on disco power ballad. It sounds a lot like his previous work, but with a greater emphasis on the vocals talents of the secretive London producer.

Tom Cheshire met Hinds in Atlanta, GA on a corner under a bridge in 1993. They were panhandling and drinking cough syrup and before long, music began spewing from their pores. Songs were written on an acoustic guitar and a bucket with the occasional toy piano in the background. Late nights turned into early mornings and much booze was consumed. They write and sing for the underdog and give the listener a [...]

It was just us moving through those incredible landscapes. Maybe my taste for melancholia and pure sounds kind of stems from there." With her dismal lyrics now in her back pocket, she attended Berklee College of Music [...]
