Mike Taveira x Allie X - Sex for Breakfast [Review]

September 17, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop, Commercial

Rating: 4.5 out of 5

“The clever word play and use of overlapping lyrics really hooked me in early. Both voices do a great job of selling the sultry emotion and lyrical build keeping the listener leaning in from start to finish. The overall tempo makes you want to move in a nice sultry groove.

This a nice addition to that playlist you use when the lights go off and the action heats up.”

    Caroline Romano - Oddities and Prodigies [Review]

    September 16, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop, Commercial, Pop, Rock

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “Caroline Romano drops ‘Oddities and Prodigies’ on us, and the track is bound to remind some of Pink as it delivers the same brand of energetic talent that hooks and pulls you along. The vocal talent makes the track, but the writing is strong and the hook keeps the listener engaged. If I had any negative critique at all it, is that the track is short at two minutes and I was left wanting more. ”

      Mack Imagine - Frosted Flakes [Review]

      September 14, 2021 by Kreadiv Kesh in Music, Commercial

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “Most people travel to LA to pursue their dreams but Mack Imagine’s new single “Frosted Flakes” is about finding a new love. LA has so much to offer and despite it being so big you can really find happiness with it. Even if you start being there alone you can find someone to enjoy the experience with you. ”
      — Kreadiv Kesh [LA On Lock Blogger]

      Mack Imagine is a singer-songwriting pop duo based in Southern California formed in 2020. During the pandemic, Matthew Zeko (guitar, vocals) and Jack Brady (piano, vocals) decided to quit covering songs--and started to write their own. Reaching from their life experiences and musical influences, the two began to quickly create their own aesthetic through their vocals and guitar melody writing.

        Mia Mormino - Stick-Up [Review]

        September 10, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop, Commercial

        Rating: 4.5 out of 5

        “I am a sucker for a good story song and a murder ballad certainly fits the bill. okay so Mia Mormino’s track isn’t exactly a ballad with its jazz infused energy and retro scat vibes, but it the story of a pissed off and fed up Burlesque dancer ready to exact her revenge on the men who expect more from her than she is willing to give.

        Mormino’s talent brings it all to life and the writing is dead on. Pun intended. My only wish is there was a bad ass video to give some imagery to this track. ”

            Only Bricks - Antisocial [Review]

            Review: 4 out of 5

            “Only Bricks’s new single “Antisocial” takes you from party mode to not wanting to be around anyone but yourself. The song is less party more pity party. It explains the thoughts of an introvert and someone who tries to be social but always find a way to hide. ”

                “Pop duo Calabasas teams up with the vocal talents of Marc E Bassy on this track. “voices’ is a groove and a vibe that utilizes a perfect production and build to convey the lyrical intent. The track is pure Pop but uses styles of other genres like EDM and Hip-Hop to create the sound. This is the kind of track you will listen to once and sing along with forever. ”

                  “Madisyn Gifford has that unique tone and quality that makes you feel as if she is a close persona’ friend you’ve known her for years. ‘Nice Things’ feels like a confessional of sorts, but in that fun and joking kind of way that friends banter.

                  This Pop track simply feels real and genuine and keeps you leaning in start to finish. The writing takes a unique spin on the usual break up tropes we’ve all heard so often.”

                    “DxBoy makes the most of this Trap beat and flow. ‘Lit Again’ is an ode to escaping lockdown and getting out there in the world alongside people and finding your vibe. The track comes with an easy beat to fall in on the groove and the lyrical flow hooks and holds the listener as well. Short but no so short that the flow doesn’t grab you and make its point. ”

                                Iris Gold - Girl Pick Up Your Drum [Music Video Review]

                                August 14, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Commercial

                                “There is cool — then there is Iris Gold who goes way beyond cool to a next level of cold stone verve and swagger.

                                ’Girl Pick Up You Drum’ is a genre bending arrangement of magical funk, rock and roll, and Hip-Hop fusion that hooks the listener in sheer talent and confidence. If Lenny Kravitz and Amy Winehouse had created a baby, that child would only hope to be half as smooth as soulful as Iris Gold. The spark and life here are undeniable. Pure star power!”

                                  “Strong writing often feels so obvious and simple, that you wonder why no one has ever written and performed the lines before. Everybody Loves An Outlaw is a band that is quite adept at creating such brazenly simple, yet stunningly captivating lines and their new single ‘Rebels & Outlaws’ feels like a track you have heard before because of this brilliance. The classic talent is almost timeless in sound making the single feel like a hit from the very first listen.”

                                    George McBride - Pink Paisley [Music Video Review]

                                    “As a writer myself, I am sucker for a good storytelling song, and George McBride has given us exactly that with ‘Pink Paisley.’

                                    The story of addiction, and the myriad of struggles that comes with it, is one that sadly many can relate to. The overall vibe is of a Indie Rock track and the video does an admirable job of accentuating the writing with strong imagery.

                                    This is a track that feels true to life and the emotions come through in the writing and performance.”

                                      Eric Punzo - Criminal [Review]

                                      August 13, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music, Commercial

                                      “Eric Punzo offers a couple of different vocal styles on this track, and both are engaging. When an artist fully commits to their craft, they sacrifice other parts of their life to spend time alone honing their craft. This song is about sequestering yourself and living like a ‘Criminal’ in self-induced solitary.

                                      Artists are not the only ones to do this, as sometimes we all simply pull away to protect ourselves from others so the nuances of this track have a wide reaching resonance. ”

                                        Anna Thompson - Hot Now [Music Video Review]

                                        “Anna Thompson is definitely, ‘Hot Now,’ and this track takes a few different angles on what that means to her past and present. From facing the judgmental people she knew in high school, who snubbed her and now want to be friends to the fake and flashy friends fame attracts, Thompson takes the emotion of not knowing who you can trust and who wants to be friends for the right reasons, versus merely using you and your rising stardom to their own benefit. The track is about being caught in the middle of these two dichotomies. ”
