    ILIRA - Clean Break [Music Review]

    November 03, 2022 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop, Commercial

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “An energetic Electro Pop track with strong Commercial vibes, ‘Clean Break’ is a track that pays homage to Roxette, Ace of Base and the sound of decades past, while still having a fresh contemporary Pop feel as well. ILIRA has the energy and vocal chops to hook the listener and there is that extra spirit and energy to truly make the track stand out from the fray.

    Raised in a small Swiss town by Kosovo-Albanian parents, ILIRA struggled to find her place in an environment with clashing cultures. Citing a wide set of musical influences from Nirvana to Rihanna as her first major muses, ILIRA developed a rebellious middle- finger-wagging attitude at a very young age, shaping her into the artist that she is today. ILIRA began cutting her teeth on the live stage in various talent shows on Albanian and Swiss TV, all the while writing songs to beats she had purchased online and posting clips of these songs to Instagram. Flash forward to a move to Berlin, Sony Music Germany snap ILIRA up and she begins penning catchy pop tracks in LA and London. She reached #1 on the German Airplay Charts with her hit collaboration “FADING.” ILIRA rounded of the year with upbeat cuts such as EXTRA FR!ES and PAY ME BACK!, and is currently in the studio honing her debut album.”

      Kia Rose DrUgS + cAnDy - [ Review ]

      October 23, 2022 by Kreadiv Kesh in Music Videos, Electro Pop

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “Kia Rose “DrUgS + cAnDy is a different type of pop song. The video is visually cute but it takes you into the mind of someone who has their head in the clouds. Somethings seem larger than others and your best friend could be a teddy bear. You are stuck between tripping and having fun but in the moment find a way to relax. ”

        September 23, 2022 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “Elodie Rêverie stands out in a way that few artists are able to achieve. From the first notes to the distinct vocal tone, she manages to stamp her mark right fromt he start. We have featured a handful of her tracks her at LA on Lock as an adoptive daughter of the LA music scene, she has carved out a definite place in the musical landscape with her distinctive vocals and strong songwriting. “LA Love” adds to her prowess with a energetic build and those soft emotive vocals that draw the listener deep inside the track.”

          “Yung Wacho drops this Pop infused Rap flow that conveys an emotional energy that is hard to escape. A fun ride that is easy to connect with and sing along to. We’ve all had that crush that inspires us and this track used that as the muse to create a fun Commercial track that will no doubt be added to many playlists shared with crushes. ”

            FLYNN - Regrets [Music Video Review]

            August 12, 2022 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Electro Pop, Commercial, Adult Contemporary

            Ratng: 4 out of 5

            “It is hard to navigate life without a few ‘Regrets’ along the way and FLYNN takes on that subject with his latest track. Ending a relationship is never easy, but sometimes in our attempts to find what we are missing we realize are actions were a mistake and it’s hard to traverse a burned out bridge. This energetic Electro Pop track takes that very road and does so with energy and verve.”

              Gwyn Love x LA+CH - good luck rly [Review]

              June 17, 2022 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop, Indie Electronic, Alternative, Pop

              Rating: 4 out of 5

              “Gwyn Love has the kind of emotive voice that hooks you from the first word. This track has some Pop Punk elements that have a 90s nostalgia feel but also some Contemporary Pop vibes that make it feel modern and timely. Almost in the vein of Taylor Swift collabs with Green Day. Well-written and sneakily pointed the track keeps you leaning in and eager for the next line. ”

                  ANDI - Devil's Work [Review]

                  June 03, 2022 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop, Commercial

                  Rating: 4.5 out of 5

                  “This new track starts out feeling a bit like the musical version of the teen Classic, The Breakfast Club but for those who have never seen the classic movie here is a bit from her publicist about the track ...

                  Andi’s new track, ‘Devil’s Work,’ is a piano-driven ballad ruminating on the heartbreak that comes from not feeling worthy. Andi’s vocals soar as her yearning falsetto lingers with the weight of her words. Not just a reflection but a call to action, Andi’s “Devil’s Work” speaks directly to those struggling with their mental health and self-acceptance.

                  Andi goes into detail below:

                  ’This song was inspired by the lack of open conversation about mental health. So many people portray perfect lives online yet are struggling behind the scenes. The lyric, “Her reflection shows her ribcage but she thinks she weighs too much,” portrays the reality of this day in age - especially on social media. There is a beauty standard that is so unattainable that young girls and boys are unable to see themselves clearly. I want this song to help people get through tough times that feel impossible to get through.

                  The line, “magazines have editors and makeup does the devils work,” is another metaphor for social media setting unhealthy standards. You aren’t seeing the editing of the pictures, posing, fake lighting; you’re just getting the final product. This is so unhealthy for young boys and girls.”

                    Neville - VINCENT VAN GOGH [Review]

                    “An intriguing song on the vocal talent and arrangement alone, but that is not all Neville and her single, ‘VINCENT VAN GOGH’ offers. The writing is sharp, and makes it’s point by highlighting the unnecessary and stupid challenges that women face in society.

                    This is a Pop track with some Electro vibes to it. A track you can move to or reflect on, and either way it offers nice attitude and a bit of verve that makes it truly come alive.”

                      “A dark twisty track about revenge, or at least contempt between best friends turned lovers, and ultimately into exes in every possible way. Both voices are uniquely talented and sell the emotion well. The funky groove is sinister in its composition, adding to the brooding vibes of the track.

                      ’Am I The Drama?’ is the question of the day and this track makes it clear the drama is tangible between these two. ”

                                Liv Charette - Red Flags White [Review]

                                “Liv Charette simply exudes talent and confidence, and this track hooks right from the first line. ‘Red Flags White’ is a modern dating anthem or more of a moving forward anthem. Just allowing yourself to have some fun and accept the things you cant change or at least not allowing them to stop a bit of fun.

                                The big bold talent and delivery brings the track to life and this song feels like a declaration of diva status.”

                                  Becky HIll x Galantis - Run [Music Video Review]

                                  “Becky Hill is a phenomenal talent, and her latest single ‘Run’ is another triumph for this talent Brit. Teaming up with Swedish group Galantis, this big bold offering is an epic conversation about how we run from love after being hurt a few times. The uplifting nature of the melody and build lends the track an almost motivational quality and serves as a reminder to us all that there is power in the vulnerability of keeping our hearts open to the idea of love. ”

                                    The Attire - Girls Like You

                                    February 24, 2022 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop, Commercial

                                    “The Attire is comparable to Bruno MArrs and Maroon 5 and falls solidly in the Funk Pop sound. ‘Girls Like You’ is a soulful ode to affairs of the heart and the way our hearts get drug down some rocky roads but we keep taking that bumpy ride hoping for that magical ride we call love.

                                    The beauty here is that it take a few rough rides to recognize that smooth trip when it arrives. ”

                                        “A hauntingly beautiful track about carving out your own wants and needs in a world that all too often demands you give in and sacrifice pieces of yourself to fit in. The build has a brooding vibe and also a fierce determination to stand up for yourself int he face of demands from others. A reminder we all need from time to time so add this one to your self motivational playlists and feel the power of the writing and delivery. ”
