Marrius - Easy Fix [Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“Marrius drops ‘Easy Fix,’ a track that feels dark and alluring in a modern Noir sort of way.
The track basically asks ... How far are you willing to go, for what you’re not even supposed to have? ”
jaye - TOMORROW [Music Video Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“A track that plays with the emotions. Dark sarcastic lyrics, and disturbing imagery, go along with an upbeat almost childlike melody and beat. A good metaphor for life and how we say we are fine when underneath there is often looming turmoil. ”
Ariza - Patience [Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“I love the soft pleading quality to the vocals on this track. The beat and melody add to the anxious hopeful tone which sort of whispers to the soul.”
Daughters of Noise! - 2023 [Review]
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
“If I am honest ... I nearly dismissed this track early on. The initial sound did not hook me, but the longer I listened, that old school 90s synth vibe snaked its way into my soul, and the retro girl band vocals soon caught my ear.
I was a reluctant fan for sure, but there is something to be said for a track that can surprise you and turn your head and I came away a fan despite that initial reaction.”
du0 - Way Back Down [Review]

“The vocals are alluring and grab you immediately. The production of the beat and melody is in lock step with the emotion of the lyrics creating a totally immersive listening experience. ”
Elly J Devon - Phoenix [Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“A strong debut from Elly J Devon. I thought I knew where the vocals were taking me, but I was wrong and pleasantly surprised to be so. A soulful ode to staying strong in the face of a deteriorating relationship.”
iEzra - Trigger Finger [Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“An interesting blend of reggae sounds and electro pop production gives this single a unique sound. Beyond the well-produced single is a sentiment of frustration over violence and the politics that swirl because of and in spite of the onslaught of tragedies.
This track offers a perspective that is not often at play and this only adds to the difference in sound and vibe. But make no mistake, this is entertaining music as well! ”
Venessa Michaels ft Leslyn & Outlaw The Artist - Spell On Me [Music Video Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“In contradiction to the fun pop vibe that bubbles on the surface, this track brings an underlying darkness in both the message and video. a darkness that taps into a truth, because unfortunately, what you see isn’t what you truly get in this world — not with people, products, or the motivations behind them. This single and video do a great job of exposing that fact in a fun entertaining way.”
frogi - thnk u [Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“This single is sang soft and tender, which stands in contrast to the hard-edged sarcasm of the lyrics. ‘thnk u’ rolls out like a pop version of a church hymnal, and it does so with a deliverance and declaration that oh-so-many will relate to.
The track is a smooth fuck you to all those we cross paths with — that leave us worse off for the experience.”
FARR - Paranoid [Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“A racing mind tends to make leaps from one fear to another until it finds that one inescapable paranoia. ‘Paranoid’ captures that sensation and the construct of the song has that same kind of feel.
My first listen through I was slightly uncomfortable, yet hooked and that is how I knew this song had captured it’s emotional intent.”
Avi Snow & Ben Cina - Sideways [Review]
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
“An interesting timber to the vocals catches your attention right away. Lyrically the writing is strong and the melody fits well with the performance. The backing chant is a bit overdone in much of the music that toes that Indie Rock/Americana/Folk vibe and here too, it did feel a bit extraneous , but overall ‘Sideways’ moves forward in a positive manner.”
PHFAT - My Lady (Prod. Ganja Beatz) [Music Video Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“Love is an addiction unlike any other, and ‘My Lady’ drops an emotional flow that both honors and explains that connection.
Smooth and easy like time spent with the one that holds your heart, this single comes is a modern love song that feels like real life. ”
NEO NOIR - Taking It’s Toll (ft. Nate Kreiswirth) [Review]
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
“Building from a quiet place, ‘Taking It’s Toll’ explodes at the chorus. The passion and emotion is real and tangible making this the kind of song best listened to with a reflective and solitary mindset so you can truly feel every word.”
Stolen Gin - Analie [Review]
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
“The driving force here is funky groove that gets you moving.
But don’t sleep on the songwriting, because there is genuine emotion lurking underneath that infectious groove.”
Au Lune (Featuring Christina Munsey) - Rose Gold [Review]
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
“The euphoria of newfound love or lust can sweep away all else, but this song adds a menacing quality to that sensation with a subtle warning like message that the euphoria will never last.
Haunting vocals and a varied melody quicken the heart as it sinks in that these feelings just won’t last. ”
