Hamster (featuring Jesaiah) - Resistance (Break the Bind) [Review]

May 28, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Future Bass, Music

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Alluring vocals and a steady bass beat catch your attention right away, and lyrically this one taunts and engages.

No ‘Resistance’ from me on sharing this one with the world.”

    Grayson Ty - Back to Us [Review]

    May 28, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Singer/Songwriter, Electro Pop, Commercial

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “Riding pure pop vibes, ‘Back To Us’ modernizes an 80s sound that at times feels like vintage Michael Jackson. But while his influences are clear, Grayson Ty’s talent stands out without relying too heavily on nostalgia.

    This single is all about the emotion of trying to get back to that sweet spot in a relationship once it has hit the rocks.”

      teddibear - Clouds [Review]

      May 28, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Future Bass, EDM

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “A teasing drop that eludes just long enough, before giving you exactly what you want.

      The smooth vocal duet blends perfectly with a well-produced track, making it hard not to be up in ‘Clouds’ over this track. ”

        Jaclyn Manfredi - Parachute [Review]

        May 28, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Singer/Songwriter, Funk

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “Parachute begins with a jump straight into a vintage, bad-girl rock sound, but then the chute opens and we glide into some good old funk. The contrast is wonderful, making this a single worth floating along for.”

            Bengal Lancers - Last Orders [Review]

            Rating: 4 out of 5

            “The melody lands with you first. Then the vocals arrive bringing that extra emotion. And finally the lyric settle in conjuring all kids of thoughts as you digest their meaning .

            Together, these three components compliment each other to infuse this single with emotion and energy.

            Pure Indie Rock emotion! ”

              May 21, 2019 by Kreadiv Kesh in Electro Pop, Music
              “If you can listen to a song and start singing along before it is over then that is a song with potential. “Faded On You” not only has great instrumentals and vocals but the delivery of the track is sure to have you faded in its melody.”

                Rating: 4 out of 5

                “A shiny and bright look at the psychology of social media. The lyrics are dead on and the melody is full of surprises with even a homage to a little disco sound thrown in.

                A fun pop song that carries a message that we all need to hear.”

                  “Strong vocals demand your attention from the very beginning. The power of the opening is never quite duplicated, but lyrically that works well in that we the listener, are left with sobering thoughts as we digest the beat, melody, and words.”

                    “Love is a complicated game, and ‘Go Have Fun At Your Party’ nails the emotion of a relationship that isn’t quite right, but is close enough that it is hard to let go.

                    It is the kind of song that brings out that old heartache, misguided hope, and tarnished love that we’ve all been part of.

                    It is the kind of song that is real, and raw, and allows us all to understand we are not alone in these experiences.”

                        “It is perhaps ironic that a well-written song about addiction is ... well addicting, but thus is the case with The Sweet Kill’s latest single ‘Powerless.’

                        The songwriting here is not complex or subtle, but it is engaging and honest and it doing so it speaks directly of a problem that appears easy to solve but never is.

                        This is music that captures a slice of the human condition perfectly well. ”

                              To be a princess is every girls dream. To be the princess of Compton is far from a dream but a reality for artist Azjah. With a strong force and team behind her Azjah drops her debut album “Princess Diaries”. The 12 track album includes two familiar tracks “Spotlight” and “Time for it” but also gives you insight of her daily life and experience so instead of reading her diary just take a listen. ”

                                “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. ”

                                      “Put down the glowing cellphone and grab an an old-fashioned Bic lighter for this classic rock ballad. Hold the flame high and sway to the melancholy beat until you burn your thumb because then, and only then will you feel something other than the emotional tug in your heart this single will instill in you.”
