Lauren Sanderson - To the People I Hurt [Review]

December 18, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop

Rating: 4.5 out of 5

“I am a sucker for stripped down emotion in music, and Lauren Sanderson has given us exactly that with this single.

None of us are exempt from causing pain to others. Sometimes it is even inevitable, but at our best we can be open and honest and admit our mistakes, as well as our true intentions. This song is all about that. ”

      Flipsyde - "Imagine Peace" [Review]

      December 16, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Hip-Hop, Alternative, Conscious, Singer/Songwriter

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “Flipsyde might not have registered on your radar in a while, but this new single “Imagine Peace” is engaging and entertaining and proves the group still has wait it takes to hook you with a nice blend of voices and talents.

      If you are unfamiliar with Flipsyde, you should catch up on their blacklist right after you give this track a listen.”

        “A fun song that spins around the entire friend zone concept around. The tracks has a talented vocal flow, with some subtle but nice variation, over a steady beat that blends nicely.”

          “The verses spoke to me here more than the chorus, but overall this is a solid track that brings some emotion and a nice tone to the flows.

          Lyrically the track has something meaningful to say and the message stuck to me through several listens. ”

              Morningbird - Do It Again [Review]

              December 13, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Alternative

              Rating: 4 out of 5

              “Delivering a nice Alternative sound bordering on Americana, Morningbird’s latest single conjures emotional thoughts of nostalgia in the pursuit of love and a better life.

              The song does a nice job of reflection, followed by self-realization that it is time to move on to the next phase.”

                      “This track will no doubt conjure up thoughts of Cobain, but The Mitras sound offers far more than similarities to Nirvana.

                      Many influences are at work here and they manifest in a set of vocals and melody that stands on its own in Alternative Rock glory.

                      ’Please’ isn’t a question or a plea in this case, but a demand to be heard. ”

                                  “Jake Bugg is catching fire with ‘Kiss Like The Sun’ so pucker up and plant a wet one on this hard driving Rock song. Blues guitar riffs and a mesmerizing vocal delivery keep the heat turned up. ”

                                    “A unique vocal tone delivers sad regretful lyrics of love lost without any trace of the usual anger or bitterness. The decidedly — what might have been — impact hits hard in this single.”

                                      “Ghosts of the past haunt us all to varying degrees and this track is a nice rock ballad about those lingering memories. With a sound falling somewhere between classic Bon Jovi and Bryan Adams, The Replicants deliver a timeless melody and lyrics to match. ”

                                        “Smooth and melodic, ‘Freeze’ brings that easy groove that just falls into your consciousness as if you’ve been singing along to the song for years. ”
