“The beat and vocal rhythm of this track wrapped around me and kept me tethered in. The ‘Ghosts’ in our head often are hard to exorcise, and this track not only captured that lyrically, but with the production and arrangement as well.
Mike XI has impeccable timing and a strong emotive tone to make this track take up residence in the attic of your mind.”
“The soft vocals of Angela Parchetta set off this Electro Pop track that feels like summer with just a hint of a melancholic undercurrent. The build and beat is subdued, but delivers its own mood and emotional vibe that works well with the yearning tenderness of the vocal performance.
’Tell Me’ asks the questions that fill all of our minds from time to time.”
“Nick Marcus drops this energetic bit of Pop Funk. ‘Burnin’ is that fire you feel when you spot that smoking hot persona that heats you up from the inside with one look.
The beat and the funk of this track will no doubt conjure comparisons to Bruno Mars because the track has that innate sound that makes you want to get up and move.”
“Victor Dahlberg hails from Stockholm, but now calls Spain home and his sound conjured thoughts of John Hiatt for me.

“Ry August drops this heartfelt flow asking for more awareness, or at the very least an honest conversation given all that 2020 has revealed about us as a society.

“There comes a time when you either tap out, or you dig in and fight. ‘Cage Fighter’ is a track about the latter option and the duo that is TWO, embodies that not only in the lyrics and arrangement of this song, but in the fact they have emerged from their own strife and struggles to reunite with this project. A hard rocking track with an edge, this is one to add to your motivational playlists. ”
“The smooth laid back flow that no one else does quite like Snoop does, kicks off this track.

“Sweet, smooth Soul. Musically, vocally, and lyrically this track simply is salve for a chapped and scraped world.
I believe in this message, and I believe in the talent unfurling it here. Grab the one you love and slow dance, or hug your neighbor (Metaphorically since maintaining social distance is key right now) and sing along. ‘As Far As We Know’ offers the best of humanity in sound and message. ”
“I dug the fusion of sounds within this track. The progression and build flawlessly shifted at just the right time to keep the track from growing stale or predictable. The Latin mix and Jazz blend kept a good energy and transported me across the ocean to the cobbled streets of Europe where I could feel the cool condensation of a glass in my mind.”
“Jokaa Deleon drops a bit of the Dirty South sound on you with ‘99 & 2000s Flow.’
There is a hint of that New Orleans bounce to the beat, and the flow comes gritty and hard. Step away from Bourbon Street and capture a bit of the New Orleans beyond the tourists scene with these hard-hitting words of truth. ”
“The build, both musically and vocally, is almost cinematic here, though the track remains its Rock/Pop vibe thanks to a magnificent performance from Sarah Kinsley.
’I Can Feel It’ has the kind of emotion that sweeps you up and carries you along. A big piano ballad that Elton John and Freddy mercury would be proud of. KInsley puts her stamp on the emotion of making it in the music world.”
“LU KALA is coming with some fire on this track, so when she tells you — you don’t want ‘No Smoke,’ you better believe it. Because the attitude she brings, is as persuasive as the talent.

“Every summer needs that pure pop sound to deliver a bit of bubblegum sweetness and energy to the warm sunny days. Em Rose has a true contender with ‘Lame Boys,’ a girl in the throes of infatuation. The track has an early Taylor Swift feel with a bit more Electro Pop flair on the back end. ”
“RUNN delivers honest and vulnerable lyrics in this track about admitting your own weaknesses and sensitivities. The vocal performance is tender and open, which invites the listener in, almost like a first date kind of situation.
’Handle With Care’ is a warning, but not an aggressive one that this i what you will get if you choose to be part of my world. ”
“Bringing a vintage sound to her vocals, Eddy Lee Ryder breathes new life into the fem-dom of Rock and Roll with a sound that hints at Stevie Nicks and Joan Jett. But the influence of Springsteen and Petty is lurking there as well, making this a pure return to the glory days of the big bold emotional rock ballad. ”
“This mid tempo Track from Very Very brings a stream-of-conscious type of emotion with a vocal flow that is alluring and bare in its honesty. The beat backing the track is a subtle and simple addition that really adds depth while also pushing the track forward enough that it does not feel too languid. ”
“Sometimes what you need is that Retro soul sound coupled with a bit of good time Funk. You can call it a throwback if you want, but this kind of soul is pretty much timeless as is the euphoric and infectious energy such a track instills. I dare you not to fall in this groove and sing along as you move to that beat. ”
