“JES unleases a new single signle that comes with all the energy and light that you would expect from a big, bold Dance Pop track. ‘Under The Midnight Sun’ is a dazzling production of talent offering the warmth of alluring vocals and the strong imagery in the accompanying video.”
“A Disco era throwback with enough of an Electro Pop contemporary vibe to make it feel fresh and contemporary.
One of these days we will all be able to return to the dance floor, and ‘Magnetic’ from Bashaya Soul should be one of the tracks spun to get us up and moving when that day arrives.”
“A smooth and sensual track about the power of love and lust. For me, the cadence and groove really set the mood for the lyrics and emotive vocal delivery. Grayson Ty has the talent to make the simple arrangement work on this single, because he makes you feel every last word.”
“There is nothing like harmonic vocals. Singer and Songwriter, Lo Knowles new single ‘The One Where They Run’ is about going to a place that is peaceful and free. Even when you are on the run from your emotions its ok to escape to your own place. The finger snapping draws in the melody even more.”
“This high-energy hype track feels like the perfect add to your workout playlist. On ‘Turn The Light On,’ Mighty infuses a catchy hook and a nice rising progression to give us this track which feels like something between an infectious dance floor mix and a big bold sports anthem ready for the arena.”
“Thanks to the incredible vocal talent of Kelli-Leigh, ‘Can’t Get Enough’ is both the title of her latest single, and an apt description of listener’s reaction to her sound.
Her performance here is silky and smooth, landing in the sweet groove of a pure R&B sound, with just a hint of a more commercial sound coming through in the arrangement.”
“Sometimes you hear echoes of music past in a track, and in them, you find your connection. ‘Kleptomania’ conjured a blend of Foreigner and Michael Jackson for me, and while few similarities exist between those acts, the blend here is energetic and sharp. Nothing but a Nightmare has submitted several songs to us and the talent always shines. Their diversity of sound truly makes the band stand out and capture my interest.”
“A pure Rock anthem for anyone that has ever had trouble playing it cool.
Nothing but a Nightmare delivers an energetic true rock sound, and their latest single ‘Problems Being Cool’ defies the traditional cliches of the genre, to bring forth a track with both heart and grit. ”
“This year has been filled with many deaths and tears. Veldor’s new single ‘Bat Shit Crazy’ pretty much sums the year up. He sings about living right, being alive and getting through the bad days. Some people get lost in their pain and discover their own gate way to take the pain away. This may cause pain to others as they drift away to the other side.”
“Are you a good or bad girlfriend?
Christina Hart’s new single points out that sometimes we have flaws and baggage but its ok. In her new electro- pop single ‘Bad Girlfriend’ she points out the pros and cons of being with her. This is the opposite of crushing but more of a heads up of what type of person you are loving.”
“It is the rare song that can come with a tongue-in-cheek set of lyrics and still mange to pull of a meaningful track. Scott Luka has done it here with ‘In The Club,’ which originally was meant as a sarcastic condemnation on the often cliched tropes prevalent in a lot of popular music, but along the way the track became a bit more nostalgic for me and that left me feeling sort of caught in between musical worlds and times. Reminiscent for the past, and reluctant but hopeful for that next great thing. In this music is like life and here all of it felt very tangible for me.”
“In what is the debut single for Wax Owls, ‘Set It Free’ is a big soaring brand of Commercial Folk. Falling into a stratosphere somewhere between Mumford & Sons and Tom Petty the band’s sound feels lively and emotional on this track. Lyrically, the song is about moving back and sort of facing your past while acknowledging the roads you’ve traveled. ”
“Khamari perfectly captures that moment when you spot her, the one that you will do anything to spark a conversation with ... all in the hope that from there a relationship will bloom and blossom.
’That Girl’ has a definite Frank Ocean vibe to it and the track is one that just feels like the euphoric triumvirate of love, lust, and hope.”
“We all have some sort of fear. For Biz Colletti its the fear of being alone with someone. When she saw the true colors of someone she lost herself. Now she doesn’t trust herself to be alone with that person. We all have been there before. Her vocals are soft spoken but the delivery will draw you in emotionally.”
“It hasn’t been easy to party as of late, but Adrian Gamboa isn’t letting that stop him from dropping this up beat track on us in our time of need.
’How I need It’ is pure party in song form. The back and forth flow with Kiara Simone’ a shameless simulation of male/female flirtation as they both try to stake their role in what is sure to be a wild, fun-filled night for both.”
“A big, boisterous track that at times reminded me of Kelly Clarkson, ‘Every Room’ is a triumph for Olivia Grasso.
Grasso has an energy about her vocals, and an uplifting spirit behind her songwriting, which combine to make this energetic track come alive. ”
“You get what you give ... is an expression we’ve all heard. Taking that idea a bit deeper than most usages of the expression, Abby J Hall uses the lyrics of ‘All I Wanted’ to express the idea that we all need to lower our walls in order to form the intense connections that make any relationships truly meaningful and strong.
Within the song, she sings .. I hate being vulnerable,’ but ironically, Hall does exactly that on both her stellar songwriting and the emotive performance of this track.”
“LACES once performed to success under the name Charlotte Sometimes, but a series of life events and personal decisions have led to her burying that name, both literally and figuratively.
In more ways than one, ‘worship’ represents a rebirth, and in the dark moodiness of a stellar vocal performance, lurks an emotion and depth that breaths life into this track, as well as the new direction of LACES renewed career.”
“This track is a perfect example of the beat and melody doing the heavy lifting in regard to the prevailing emotion of a song. The vocal delivery hints at a desperate yearning and almost pained morose, but at times choose a monotone delivery which works for the emotions involved. Such a track can lose its energy and feel flat, but the production behind the flow kept this track alive and tangible, allowing you to feel the lyrics in a way you might not have otherwise. The performance is spot on, but in a very subtle way.”
“Being lonely is tough on the emotions no matter where you are, but in a vibrant setting like LA the feelings are all the more acute. This track utilizes universal emotions within settings familiar for those who know the City of Angels to create a lively track that toes the commercial line between Pop and more of a singer/songwriter vibe.”
