Zaryah - Youdofuckingyou [Review]

May 09, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Commercial, Pop

Rating: 3.5 out of 5

“It is amazing how a well-written song can emotionally sum things up, and this pop tune certainly does that.

The title of the single does the job of setting the stage, but give these alluring vocals and wryly, smart lyrics a listen and you will be hard pressed, not to join in by the second chorus.”

    Elliot Lee - Upside Down [Review]

    May 08, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop, Indie Pop

    Rating: 4.5 out of 5

    “Elliot Lee hooks you with her haunting voice and holds you with lyrics that twist and turn ‘Upside Down’ a coupe of times.

    The drum roll, and fluid, yet ever-changing melody speak of a meticulous attention to perfection on the production side.”

      “Proving fusion isn’t only for the culinary world, Dis Orda employs creative sampling along with sharp lyrics and a direct delivery to give us the ‘Luxury’ of a new single that feels like a classic from the very first listen.”

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “In a testament to both great songwriting and a genuine emotional delivery, I was able to put myself in the shoes ... errr, make that prom dress, of our would-be party girl and feel every last emotion of this experience.

        This is the power of good music ... which transports us back in time, beyond our own experiences, and to emotional places of empathy and understanding. ”

              Chris O'Bannon - "Sauce Meets World 2" [Album Review]

              May 07, 2019 by Kreadiv Kesh in Music, R&B, Rap, Album
              “We packed our headphones and decided to take a trip to “Sauce The World”. “Sauce The World” started off a little watery with a few track skipping but before we knew it we were turning the volume up as the album started dripping with sauce. Chris O’Bannon raps about whatever the fuck he wants to but that is what brings so much sauce to this album.”

                Jenny Kern - Carousel [Review]

                May 07, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Singer/Songwriter, Music

                Rating: 4 out of 5

                “Songwriting grabs the ring on this ride.

                ’Carousel’ circles around a tender guitar driven melody with emotional lyrics that bring out the feelings of being in an on-again/off-again relationship, and the hope each time that this ride will be the one that breaks that pattern.”

                        “Straightforward lyrics with a guitar-charged melody. The overall sound falls somewhere between Americana and Rock and Roll, but genre isn’t really important when the music is this good.

                        ’Strangers’ is the kind of tune that you find yourself signing along with the chorus by the second time through.”

                                “The melody is dark and deep and before the first lyric is delivered, you already feel the emotions.

                                The metaphor of the “Little Bird’ is one that will hauntingly speak to anyone that has ever made a personal sacrifice in the name of love, only to eventually realize you clipped your own wings ... for all the wrong reasons.”

                                  “Riding in on a fluid melody that stands out in a genre full of slowing moving currents ‘Happy Times’ brings a rush of Indie Rock emotion to give us a single that just feels right to the ears and the soul.”

                                    Amy Loftus - Down The Line [Review]

                                    May 01, 2019 by BGiraldo in Music, Singer/Songwriter, Commercial
                                    “Amy Loftus takes us on a dreamy trip down the coast with her smooth vocals and twangy vibrations. With a perfect balance between acoustic and electric guitars, Loftus provides intimate lyrics with a bit of a rock edge.

                                    There is no doubt that a song like this is perfect for a driving around with your hair billowing in the breeze, without a care in the world. ”

                                      “A catchy, feel good tune that gets you moving while proclaiming the fell good vibes of unconditional love.

                                      ’Anything For You’ is the kind of commercial pop tune that catches fire and crosses genres to pull music listeners in far and wide.”

                                        “Fiery passion and a old world beat stokes the melody of ‘House on Fire.’

                                        Sultry sexy vocals and the rhythm of Spanish guitar lends this single an exotic mix that is quite intoxicating.”
