A sonic journey through memories, childhood fears, and timeless groove.
Behind grandma’s garden, a small pond. A reflection. A fear. A memory.
From this simple yet deeply evocative image comes “The Pond”, the new single by Catania-based producer and artist Salvo “Dub”, aka Go.Soul.Map., in collaboration with singer-songwriter and performer Jack Bloom.
This track unfolds like a whisper from the past—caught between the shadows of memory and the soft light of adult irony. “The Pond” serves as a metaphor for those irrational childhood fears that once froze us in place—like the dark, or a figure lurking beneath still water—and that, with time, reveal themselves for what they truly are: illusions.
Telling this story is Jack Bloom, whose gentle voice and tender lyrics shape a familiar yet surreal scene: a group of children, a ball rolling toward the water, the silence that follows… and that unexplainable fear that keeps everyone still.
Musically, “The Pond” is a refined stylistic exercise. Go.Soul.Map.’s warm, driving groove draws from classic disco roots, yet is dressed in contemporary elegance, with sonic textures that sway between nostalgia and modernity. It’s a production that once again confirms the versatility of the “Catanese master of the beat,” capable of turning even the most intimate emotions into dancefloor movement.
A track for those unafraid to look within. A track for those who’ve learned to laugh at their own shadows. A track for those who, even now, sometimes stop by a pond… and let their thoughts wander.
“Crazy Funky” marks the official debut of Tommy Soul as a producer — a track born from the desire to blend the groove of 80s funk and disco with a contemporary sonic approach.
A warm, dominant funky bassline drives the track alongside a vintage-flavoured, punchy drum groove, supported by modern electronic synths and sound details that firmly place it in the present. The lyrics and vocal melody sung by Tommy Soul, reveal an unexpected falsetto, especially in the harmonic tension of the hook “make me crazy!”
The goal was to reinterpret the spirit of original disco productions and bring it into a modern, more electronic and club-oriented dimension, while preserving the analogue soul and authentic warmth of the sound.
The result is a track with a strong character: a relentless bassline, gritty vocals, an infectious groove, and an energy built for the dancefloor.
The two versions offer different perspectives on the same groove:
The Disco Version is airy, spatial, and bright — rich in percussive layers for a unique disco feel, perfect for radio play as well.
The Club Version is more direct and punchier, designed to dominate darker dancefloors and tailored for underground DJs.
“Crazy Funky” acts as a bridge between past and future: on one side, the inspiration of 80s funk and disco productions — with thick basslines, tight drums, and minimal vocal melodies; on the other, a modern electronic sound design influenced by the nu-disco, modern funk, and deep club scenes.
The track captures the best of both worlds, crafting a fresh, analog, and irresistible language. Pressed on 12” 45 RPM vinyl, Crazy Funky is a maxi-single built for DJs who want to ignite the dancefloor with a deep, authentic, and captivating groove. Alongside the vinyl release, the single will also be available on all major digital platforms.
ANALOG MASTERING
The mastering of “Crazy Funky” was carried out entirely on vintage analog consoles and finalized to magnetic tape. Each stem was treated individually through high-quality analog outboard gear, preserving the natural warmth and depth of the sound.
This old-school “as it used to be done” approach is an essential part of Tommy Soul’s philosophy: bringing back the physicality and organic feel typical of classic analog productions to modern electronic music.
The result is a full, warm, and authentic sound — with lively dynamics and a groove that breathes. Tommy Soul pays meticulous attention to sonic quality and tonal coherence, believing that the warmth and natural imperfection of analog sound are what make music truly alive.
POSITIONING & STYLE
The track sits within the nu-disco / modern boogie / electronic funk landscape, drawing direct inspiration from the sound and aesthetic of artists such as DJ Harvey, Moodymann, Theo Parrish, Kerri Chandler, Louie Vega, Hunee, Folamour, Danilo Plessow aka Motor City Drum Ensemble, and collectives like Rush Hour, Toy Tonics, Dekmantel, My Analog Journal, HOR Berlin, and more.
Meet Jack Bloom: an emerging voice from Italy’s alt-pop scene, born in 2002 and already shaping a sound that feels both intimate and international.
His new single, “Where Do You Go?”, is a shimmering piece of groove-driven nostalgia.
Imagine the hypnotic pulse of Metronomy’s “The Look” meeting the emotional clarity and crisp production of Harry Styles’ “As It Was”. The result is a song that feels like dancing through a memory — upbeat, but never shallow; catchy, yet emotionally loaded.
“Where Do You Go?” opens with tight, propulsive drums and a bouncing bassline that pulls you in from the first second. Add warm synth textures, understated guitar licks, and a vocal line that feels both personal and instantly memorable, and you’ve got a track that’s ready for radio rotation, indie playlists, and late-night drives.
“Where do you go, when you don’t call? / With all this space and time… you’re always on my mind.”
It’s a question we’ve all asked, quietly or out loud. Jack turns it into a hook — simple, haunting, and honest. The lyrics explore emotional absence, and the echo left behind by someone who’s no longer present, but never really gone. It’s about drifting, longing, and the quiet obsession of remembering.
Jack Bloom writes, produces, and performs his own music. Raised in Northern Italy, he grew up surrounded by British indie, electronic textures, and the kind of heartfelt pop that crosses borders. Despite being only 23, his artistic identity is already sharp: emotionally open, sonically polished, and impossible to ignore.
His DIY approach brings authenticity; his sense of melody brings staying power.
“Where Do You Go?” bridges indie and pop with rare balance. It’s infectious, but smart. Smooth, but layered. Whether you’re programming a pop show, an alt-indie hour, or looking for the next artist to break through the European scene, Jack Bloom deserves your attention.

This is Sankofa: the soul’s journey back to the past in order to move forward.
Heading South is more than a journey—it’s a movement through space and sensation. The road stretches ahead, winding through rolling hills, towering mountains, and vast, open plains. The sunlight is constant, warm, and golden, wrapping everything in a quiet glow. It’s the kind of light that feels like a memory.
As the traveller moves forward, a soundscape rises—a track filled with atmospheric tones and visionary textures. It recalls the musical spirit of Khruangbin, Tommy Guerrero, and Mildlife, artists who blur borders and paint landscapes with sound. The music seems to speak, telling stories without words, stories of distant places and the calm vastness of wide horizons.
Agosta blends Trip-Hop with the soul of psychedelic rock and the pulse of funk, creating something both rooted and borderless. The rhythm flows with a steady, sun-soaked ease, giving the sensation of perpetual motion. There’s a groove that breathes with every curve in the road, with every ray of light, as if the earth itself is part of the beat.
Guitars lead the melodic thread, their voices infused with soul, speaking in a musical language shaped by many cultures. It’s a sound that carries both nostalgia and curiosity—a feeling of traveling not just through landscapes, but through memories, through identity, and through the echoes of one’s origins.
Eventually, the road reaches its final destination: Sicily. A place that is not just the end, but a return. Here, the music finds its roots. It becomes personal. Agosta’s native land becomes the final note in a composition that has always been about movement—forward, inward, and homeward.
“Letter To My Twin Flame” conveys feminine vulnerability and strength with raw intensity. Written and performed by Reiwa Pia, the song unfolds as an intimate confession — a letter to a soul intertwined with her own.
At its core lies a powerful inner conflict: the struggle to hold on to a love that seems to be slipping away. Even as turmoil surrounds her, the voice refuses to surrender. Her words carry longing and quiet resolve, but also defiance—as if whispering, “I’m still here, but I need you to show me you are too.” The plea “show me you care, prove it to me” becomes a refrain of survival—a call for presence, honesty, and a love brave enough to endure.
Musically, the track draws from the rich textures of trip-hop, wrapping Pia’s delicate voice in a slow-burning cinematic soundscape. The arrangement, masterfully shaped by Salvo “Dub,” captures the lyrics’ emotional depth, showcasing Agosta’s distinctive sonic identity and the For Today album: a blend of mood-driven pop and storytelling that feels both timeless and deeply personal.
..a declaration of absolute trust, of love or devotion — where the journey and the destination fully coincide.
