dezabel - Fade Away [Review]

September 19, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music, Alternative, Contemporary R&B, Electro Pop

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Combining the the talents of LA area singer and songwriter, Jazelle Paris, and Zurich based producer, Bilgi, ‘Fade Away’ is a mesmerizing track that I ironically expect to do anything but fade away.

Paris not only supplied the vocals but also wrote the lyrics and melodies to the Electro Pop track that captures the fleeting thoughts and feelings of a high octane relationship slipping away into the night.”

    Cristina Hart - Bad Girlfriend [Review]

    September 18, 2020 by Kreadiv Kesh in Electro Pop, Commercial

    Rating: 3.5 out of 5

    “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.”

      “I loved the writing here. There is a power and truth to these lyrics that will really make you stop and think. The arrangement of the track and production did not quite rise to the same level as the songwriting for me, but there is clear talent hear and the words need to be heard and thought about as we look to better define our thoughts and ideas in regards to women.”

        AUDREY NUNA - damn right [Music Video Review]

        September 12, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Contemporary R&B, Rap, Electro Pop

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “AUDREY NUNA brings the verve and talent to ‘damn right’ ... her fresh new satirical track about talking shit.

        NUNA said, ‘ I find it amusing when people spend time talking shit about people who don’t even know they exist.’

        Talk shit on this rising artist all you want, but it won’t stop her rise. Here the track comes with a nice Rap flow, but is definitely a mixed genre track with R&B and Pop styling all coming to the show. The video is a very literal interpretation of the lyrics. ”

          Gabrielle Current - Undercover [Review]

          September 09, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music, Neo-Soul, R&B, Electro Pop

          Rating: 4 out of 5

          “Smooth and sultry, this Jazz infused R&B track by Gabrielle Current is pure unadulterated emotion, which is ironic given that the lyrics are all about going ‘Undercover’ to protect your emotions from the dangers of falling in love.

          The vocal delivery is sensual and soft ... but so very mesmerizing, and that steady beat backing a piano heavy melody keeps the listener under the spell of the music.”

            “Strong songwriting coupled with an emotive vocal delivery. What’s not to love?

            ’Good Days, Bad Days’ is a Pop song with depth and talent behind it. A track you can laugh to, cry to, or simply move to and still enjoy the talent and production. This track runs the gamut in all the best ways. ”

              Scott Helman - Lois [Review]

              September 04, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop

              Rating: 4 out of 5

              “Clever wordplay and an energetic vocal delivery are the beacons in this ode to Lois Lane. Actually, the track is an ode to the women that empower us all to soar to greater heights.

              Scott Helman utilizes a repetitive tone to deliver some words that style will land for some, and no doubt miss for others, but the spirit of this song was refreshing for me and the writing shined bright in my eyes. Here’s to ‘Lois’ delivering a punch to the charts that even the Man of Steel could appreciate.”

                PRIZM - Lose You [Review]

                Rating: 4 out of 5

                “PRIZM unleashes an energy-filled Electro Pop anthem with their latest single ‘Lose You.’

                Conjuring hints of the Pop classics from the 80’s and 90’s, this single is able to captivate with an infectious hook and groove that is quite inescapable. Pure Pop fun with enough lyrical resonance to speak to us all.”

                  “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. ”

                    “Being caught in a relationship that isn’t truly going anywhere, can leave a person feeling a bit untethered, even when the times you spend together provide more good than bad. ‘Drifting,’ from Emily Vu, captures such feelings in Electro Pop glory. There is a bit of a Taylor Swift vibe both lyrically and in the performance, but Vu comes across a bit more tender and understanding in her honest assessment of where life has taken the relationship. ”

                      “Michelle Ray incorporates a classic vocal sound while giving us a fresh contemporary Electro Pop single titled, ‘Chasing Shadows.’ The vocal talent shines bright here with hints of Timberlake, Bruno Mars, and even vintage Diana Ross. There is a definite throwback vibe with a Disco era energy to the overall arrangement. The track is groovy fun in all the best ways.”

                          “Gillian Heidi delivers a desperate and angst-filled vibe in the yearning allure of ‘desperate.’ Unexpected attraction to someone new while inside a relationship is a mixed bag of emotions, and while the thrill of the taboo can make a person feel alive, the guilt of cheating even emotionally is a burden that can weigh one down. The uncertainty and misgivings come across lyrically and in the performance of this track.”

                            This slow building love song never felt tepid, but rather stoic and determined in the way a lasting love must be. The rising crescendo was important in the progression. The talent shines here in this unassuming and honest track.”

                              “Kaya Stewart brings an edgy allure to her vocal performance on ‘California.’ Of course the Golden State has long possessed that same brand of allure, so in this track that serves as a love letter to the state, the tone is dead on perfect. A brief Hip-Hop interlude from Childish Major adds to the mood and vibe of the track as a solid change-up to Stewart’s talented performance.”

                                BabyJake - Don’t Give Me Problems, Give Me Wine [Music Video Review]

                                “How can you not get down with the philosophy of ‘Don’t Give Me Problems, Give me Wine?’

                                The tone here is engaging and straightforward. BabyJake emotes the passion behind the lyrics in this track that feels almost Cosmic Cowboy in nature. A hint of Folk, a jolt of Rock, a splash of that 70s Alt Country vibe and this track simply oozes with coolness.”

                                  “Pure Pop glory and attitude!

                                  The vocal talent brings alive a set of wryly humorous lyrics that are indeed entertaining but also very pointed for the times we live in.

                                  This one is for everyone who has ever had to say ‘Seriously, Just Stop,’ to that person that won’t quite texting and calling. Take a hint already.”

                                    Skylar Dayne - 30 Days [Review]

                                    “The world has been weird and challenging for most of us in some way, and ‘30 Days’ by Skylar Dayne takes one dynamic of the quarantine life and brings it to light.

                                    In the budding beginning of a new relationship just as lock-down came on, Dayne penned this track about the uncertainties of her newfound relationship in the face of a forced separation. The vocals bring alive the emotion and the production feels spot on here. ”

                                      “Coming with a fun energy, Sam The Astronaut utilizes an Electro Pop vibe to deliver a light energetic track that feels a bit like summer without overtly trying to do so.

                                      ’Monster Squad’ is a groove you can fall easily into and ride out with enthusiasm.”

Could be a lover, or simply a friend, but either way STVN makes this performance come alive with a nice easy groove.”
