Vocalist and composer Ruth Naomi Floyd has been at the forefront of creating music dedicated to vocal jazz settings that express theology, history, and justice. In her Spring Garden Records debut, Floyd contextually points to the past by drawing from the life, mission, and sacrifice of Octavius Valentine Catto, an educator, intellectual, and civil rights activist who was martyred on Election Day 1871 in Philadelphia while working for African Americans' voting rights.

June Rodriguez compiles an EP of deep dark progressive house rollers for late nights at the club.  On "Beyond the Door", Rodriguez incorporates familiar afro tribal themes along with fresh punchy rhythms.  Stitching productions together, Rodriguez stresses consistent energy through layering of raw elements, skipping over the obvious drops associated with modern EDM.

Enjoy the journey into the realm of house and go "Beyond the Door".

KYL IX drops another gem in "Promise You Won't Change", the Philadelphia artist's second single.

YokoRsh's debut EP "End to the Empire" merges various styles of rock music into an engaging listen filled with political discourse and meaningful lyrics.

A strong debut from Philly's newest rock outfit.

June Rodriguez delivers a rolling progressive house banger in "Sacred". Chanting vocals blend with layers of delayed melodies and a hypnotic percussive pattern to create some of the Philly producer's most accomplished music to date.

Sean Danger Smith returns with another upbeat indie anthem in "Song's That Bad".

Somebody Like You's debut EP "Just For Today" showcases artist and producer Jack Steinman's introspective songwriting and hybrid production style. Somebody Like You's productions blend acoustic guitars and lofi drums with foundsounds and walls of distortion. Steinman's vocals hum along in layers, often providing a drone that sits inside the music, with lyrics that are meaningful and reflective. 

We are so excited for Somebody Like You to join Spring Garden Records.
