Lauren LoGrasso - Road to Glory [Review]

Yonee - Bad [Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“Sultry and forbidden, Yonee drops a smooth flow detailing the ‘Bad’ things he wants to do with the one he desires. Lyrically this one sets a mood and transports you to a emotional place and time.”
Me an Di - Hiatus [Review]
Rating: 4.5 out of 5
“Born in LA rush hour traffic, ‘Hiatus’ is an high energy pop single about that moment in a relationship where it is either time to break free and breath on your own, or double down and commit.
The track is lively with a dance energy and infectious vocals.
For those near LA the single release show will be November 8th at 10 pm at Hotel Cafe.”
Dylan Rockoff - Bad Haircut [Music Video Review]
Rating: 4.5 out of 5
“Dylan Rockoff brings a little of that Bruno funk flavor in this fun ode to the fickle nature of both love, and haircuts.
Then again a ‘Bad Haircut’ can ruin far more than your day so maybe this is actually a serious song. Nah, because luckily bad haircuts don’t last forever even if the photographic evidence does. ”
Millé - Minimal Love [Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“The early tones intrigue with a quiet reserve, until the track explodes into a glorious chorus. Millé has a unique quiver to his voice at times and a raw tenderness others.”
DRAMAS - Eph [Music Video Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“This is a track that was a slow emotional build for me. The accompanying video is outstanding and helps connect the lyrics to an imagery and vision.
The sound is modern and commercial but not pop exactly, this makes the track hard to categorize, but no matter how you describe the music, the adjectives intelligent and emotional should be used.”
WILSN - Brand New Day [Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“Bold vocals, that remind of Winehouse, and a melody that is both modern and darkly retro, drive this track. Lyrically the single might not offer as much as some other songs, but the magic of the performance is that it doesn’t need to be, in order to evoke a strong emotional reaction. ”
Ariane - Sweatshirt [Music Video Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“This track felt dangerous from the first beat, and Ariane’s vocals only add to that foreboding, yet alluring sense. The video tells the story quite well as the song unfolds. Lyrically I did get caught up in the repeated phrase ‘polyester blend,’ but beyond that the lyrics and story here is so palpable I was totally immersed.”
ZOË - Amour Fou [Music Video Review]
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
“Soft and sexy, Austrian beauty ZOË captivates with an alluring vocal style. The track has a retro European vibe and the video is reminiscent of a perfume ad. Lyricailly the track could have done more, but still I could not look away or stop listening to her voice.”
Felin - Money Honey [Music Video Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“Pinpointing exactly what I love about this track is tough. There is an undeniable energy to the performance, and the video is wryly funny.The overall sound here us Euro Punk in nature and the overall project of song/video carries the same European flavor throughout. Well worth a watch and a listen.”
Miranda Glory - Pisces [Review]
Rating: 4.5 out of 5
“The vocals are smooth and tender and that brings a vulnerability that really works well here.
The production is catchy with enough Electro elements to keep this one from falling into a saccharine pop vibe. The chorus hook is fantastic and unexpected.”
Josh Stevens - Somewhere [Music Video Review]
Rating: 4.5 out of 5
“I have a soft spot in my writer’s soul for character songs, and that is exactly what this single is at its heart. John Steven’s paints a vivid picture that stirs emotional attachment with a lively track about a woman chasing her Hollywood dreams. ”
DAVVN - Are You Still Watching? [Review]
Rating: 4.5 out of 5
“Netflix and Chill gets all the glory, but who hasn’t found themselves in Netflix and Still ... As in in ‘Are You Still Watching?’
Binge watching is one thing, but sometimes that act of solitary streaming is one of loneliness and it is in those times that the innocent question feels like a judgement.
DAVVN has taken the emotions of those times, and given us an pop-minded anthem for how it feels when streaming entertainment is your only companion.”

Deceit is a lethal act to the emotions and this track is razor sharp in slicing through the aftermath while bringing a Florence & The Machine kind of vibe.”
Evie Irie - "The Optimist" [Music Video Review]
Rating: 4.5 out of 5
“Packing complex emotions and themes into her writing, Evie Irie’s songwriting is far beyond her actual age. Actually, her songwriting shines for a any age so that comment is unfair to say. Though it is a fact that she is only sixteen, so be aware of this rising star, because the vocals are just as intriguing as the writing.
The video is well down as well and helps bring ‘The Optimist’ to life.”
