Robyn L'nea - Come On [Review]

August 14, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop, EDM, Funk

Rating: 3.5 out of 5

“This groove is hard to resist, so “Come On’ and give Robyn L’nea single a listen. Once you do, you will be moving and singing along because this single has that IT factor that is always so hard to describe. ”

    Handbook - Tie My Hands [Review]

    August 13, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Hip-Hop, Conscious

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “Poetic and poignant, ‘Tie My Hands,’ rides a steady beat and direct vocals to a message that hits home.

    This is the kind of track you need to sit quietly and digest, but it is the kind of song that is well worth the time and effort to do so.”

      Denis First, Reznikov - Taking Off [Review]

      August 13, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Commercial, EDM

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “The electric violin adds a haunting quality to searing vocals that bring energy and an underlying sadness in the verses before the explosion of the chorus brings it home. A nuanced single that bears giving it multiple listens.”

        Kosha Dillz - 15 years later (prod. by Djay Cas) [Review]

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “Tracks like this are important, because they highlight that you can come through whatever it is your dealing with. ‘15 Years alter’ brings a direct flow, delivered with truth and raw emotion. All without being filtered through necessary smoke and mirrors.”

          PaPa Shiraz & Bella Calypso - Summer Doesn't Have to End [Review]

          August 11, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Autotune

          Rating: 4 out of 5

          “The last of the carefree days under the sun are always a bit sad. ‘Summer Doesn’t Have to End’ takes that emotion and infuses it into a dark, melancholy melody that blends perfectly with two sets of vocals.

          The result is an expression of hope that a summer fling can carry on into the fall, though in the end that simply feels like something we tell ourselves to make saying goodbye easier to take.”

            “Not all relationships are equal, and with a sound that tips a hat back to Michael Jackson at times, ‘777’ also infuses a modern spin to loving someone far more than they are likely to ever love you. ”

              Raymond Revel - Answers [Review]

              Rating: 3.5 out of 5

              “A nice beat and melody accompany this song that feels likes the self-affirmation that we all need to hear and remind ourselves of from time to time.

              None of us have all the ‘Answers,’ but a single like this lets us know that’s okay, because there is time to figure it out.”

                “The unique vocal tone caught my ear straight away and led me listen closer to the melody which dips into a reggae vibe to bring a nice a groove. The lyrics empower everybody emerging on the other side of a necessary breakup.”

                  “A tender and emotional goodbye, this pop ballad is heartbreak personified. The vocals convey every facet of the hurt and the lyrics are written in the style of an actual plea from one reluctant to let go.”

                                  “Sassy and fun. An anthem for all the bold ladies out there.

                                  Belted out with old school soul, ‘I Gotta Know’ is a take charge ode to approaching the sexiest man in the room. And Violet LaVelle does it with style.”

                                    “Driven by an inescapable beat, and funk melody, ‘Keep It Moving’ will do exactly that. The vocal play is mostly inconsequential here, but it is enough to keep you engaged and grooving along to the ever-changing beats.”

                                      “Aggressive songwriting, and sultry in -your-face vocals make this one ripe for your listening.

                                      ’Peachy’ brings the IDGAF vibe straight to your ears. An anthem for those who truly don’t care what others have to say.”

                                        Skyler Stonestreet - Everything It Wasn't [Review]

                                        “Sometimes writing is everything, and ‘Everything It Wasn’t’ is that type of single. That is not to say Skyler Stonestreet does not turn in a talented performance because her voice conveys the emotions flawlessly, but having something so true to sing, is the standout feature of this single.

                                        A comparison to Taylor Swift is inevitable, because this is the kind of song and performance she has rode to success, and now, Skyler Stonestreet, brings that same passion with her own unique vibe. ”
