New Music Friday – Releases from MELOVIN, Ieva Zasimauskaite & Lindita

It's Friday, which means it's once again time to delve into a selection of new releases from familiar faces, old and new! This week see's new music from two 2018 participants as well as a host of Albania's finest! MELOVIN - That’s Your Role Fresh from his Eurovision participation for Ukraine earlier this year, MELOVIN is back with brand new single 'That's Your Role'. The 21 year old dedicates the single to those who follow their dreams and revealed to 112 UA that it was difficult to compose. “It was some kind of a gamble with the lyrics, it was hard to write it, as well as the music, though we managed to do it fast,” MELOVIN noted.112 UA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePTD0rK3Ing Freddie & Bogi - Csakazértis szerelem We love a duet, especially when both artists have a link to Eurovision! That's exactly what we have here as Hungary's 2016 representative, Freddie, joins forces with A Dal veterin Bogi for the song Csakazértis szerelem. Although she hasn't quite made it to the contest yet, Bogi has taken part in the Hungarian selection four times. Could 2019 be her year? http://escxtra.com/2018/08/29/freddie-and-bogi-spread-just-love-in-their-new-song-csakazertis-szerelem/ Deep Zone Project - Golden Girls Can you believe it's been 10 years since Deep Zone Project represented Bulgaria (alongside Balthazar) with the house infused bop 'DJ Take Me Away'. Earlier this month they released new single Golden Girls, which was also selected as the official song for the 2018 Rhythmic Gymnastics World Championships. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_Py6cY8EXo Ieva Zasimauskaitė - Absorbed Along with MELOVIN, this week see's another new release from a 2018 Eurovision star. Lithuania's Ieva Zasimauskaitė has unveiled the music video for new orchestral single 'Absorbed'. Fans of 'When We're Old' are sure to be sold on the single which follows a similar tempo and pace as her Eurovision entry. http://escxtra.com/2018/08/29/ieva-zasimauskaite-is-absorbed-by-love-in-brand-new-single/ Time for a treat from Albania as three former artists release their new music videos. Lindita - Murda She represented the nation at last year's contest with 'Botë' and now releases her new english language single 'Murda'. The catchy reggae-fused track is presented in a rather raunchy music video, directed by Chris Brann. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f09KKkXqW0c Kejsi Tola - U Rritem Kejsi Tola represented Albania in 2009 with 'Carry Me In Your Dreams'. Her new single 'U Rritem' is an impressive mix of traditional Albanian folk and modern dance-pop. The song is accompanied by a stunning music video, with it's impressive backdrop of sun, sea and golden beaches! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3zp84zQHtA Olta Boka - Pa Faj Our final feature comes from Olta Boka who represented the nation in 2008 with the song "Zemrën e lamë peng". Her new single 'Pa Faj' is a pleasant contrast to her Eurovision entry, with it's evident Albanian rhythms delivering a much welcomed late-summer banger. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnYVt7a5FYM Which of this week's songs did you like the best?
