Leah Kate - Veronica [Music Video Review]

August 20, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Electro Pop

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Leah Kate offers up this wryly written and memorable track about a chance meeting between two lovers of the same man. The groove and build are fun and energetic, and the Pop vibes sparkle on this single which brings to life every players worst nightmare. Kate’s emotive Diva energy brings the track to life, as well as a smile to your face.”

    Dylan Chambers -Me Vs. Me [Music Video Review]

    August 16, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Funk, Soul

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “LADIES and GENTLEMAN! Are you ready to rumble ... because Dylan Chambers comes out swinging with this track which is pretty much Bruno Mars meets Muhammed Ali.

    Get your funk on with this energized track that takes a big lyrical swing with its swagger, though for me it was the power punch of the music that truly sounded the bell.

    This is a track that will get you bobbing and weaving and the video adds some carefree fun and goofiness to this entertaining escape.”

      Iris Gold - Girl Pick Up Your Drum [Music Video Review]

      August 14, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Commercial

      Rating: 4.5 out of 5

      “There is cool — then there is Iris Gold who goes way beyond cool to a next level of cold stone verve and swagger.

      ’Girl Pick Up You Drum’ is a genre bending arrangement of magical funk, rock and roll, and Hip-Hop fusion that hooks the listener in sheer talent and confidence. If Lenny Kravitz and Amy Winehouse had created a baby, that child would only hope to be half as smooth as soulful as Iris Gold. The spark and life here are undeniable. Pure star power!”

        Too Many T's - So Nice [Music Video Review]

        August 13, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Rap, Hip-Hop, Conscious

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “This track from Too Many T’s hits like a British Beastie Boys. That old school construction and beat felt nostalgic, without coming across as dated and the verve behind the flows flashes both confidence and talent.

        This is simply a track that will get you moving and bouncing along as you fall in line with the build. The video is just as fun on this party anthem that truly is ... ‘So Nice.’”

          George McBride - Pink Paisley [Music Video Review]

          August 13, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Commercial, Indie Pop, Indie Rock

          Rating: 4 out of 5

          “As a writer myself, I am sucker for a good storytelling song, and George McBride has given us exactly that with ‘Pink Paisley.’

          The story of addiction, and the myriad of struggles that comes with it, is one that sadly many can relate to. The overall vibe is of a Indie Rock track and the video does an admirable job of accentuating the writing with strong imagery.

          This is a track that feels true to life and the emotions come through in the writing and performance.”

            The Roly Mo - I Miss The Dancing [Music Video Review]

            August 13, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Indie Rock

            Rating: 4 out of 5

            “Scottish band, The Roly Mo have released their new single, ‘I Miss The Dancing,’ with a timeless and classic Indie Rock sound that pulls you along as you listen.

            We’ve all missed getting out there and mixing it up on friends, be it on the dancefloor or not, and this energetic ode to the times we couldn’t have fun is one that will stick far longer than the condition of our isolation. At least we can hope because good music is way more fun that quarantines. ”

              “An elevator is a small space that when too many people are in it it can be overwhelming. Justin Bieber’s championed artist Sam Tompkins releases new single and visual (W)hole.

              He is seen on an elevator and as he goes through different floors it takes him through different experiences with people. The symbolism is when life is overloaded there is still a way to clear it all out. ”

As he recaps on the love and memories he has. Despite the song being nearly 6 mins long it doesn’t seem lengthy and draws you to keep listening.”

You often go to a bar to release your thoughts or to pick someone up and in this case claim what is yours.”

                            “Nowadays people tend to run when they hear the word “potluck”. It usually means their job is encouraging them and their coworkers to contribute a food item to a work office dinner. We all know everyone can’t cook and everything isn’t safe.

                            However, Chriz Gabriel is cooking up a different vibe in his new single “Potluck” that you are sure to want more of after one listener.

                            Chriz fuses bay vibes and London life with a Hip -Hop and Jazz melody that allows you to dance all the way through. Initially one would expect to see a bunch of adults cluttered around but “Potluck” visually creates a vibe that displays the talent of kids and a universal track that anyone can ride too.”

                              “J. Epps reps H-town on this track and if you’ve spent anytime in or around Texas’s biggest city, you will definitely dig on this lyrical flow. This track comes with a no frills flow and beat that is brought to life by Epps’ passion and talent. In other words this one track simply hits with the truth and a genuine realness that is often attempted but rarely created. If you want a bunch of shiny bells and whistles in your production this might not be the single for you, but if you can get down to the bare truth and a genuine flow — then this is one of the realest singles you will find.”

                                Nea x SHY Martin - No Regrets [Music Video Review]

                                “Straight out of the Swedish countryside, longtime friends Nea and SHY Martin wrote ‘No Regrets’ after working together for years as songwriters writing for others. This time they decided to keep the summer smash for themselves and the passion and emotional connection shines through in this Pop delight.

                                The airy build and progression makes it a fun and uplifting track and you will have no regrets adding the single to your own playlists.”

                                  “The build and progression of this track worked for me, both vocally and the beat production. Lyrically this is one that simply resonated and made me nod my affirmations as I listened. The R&B groove gives the arrangement an easy flow and the production dynamics add just enough to give the while thing a contemporary feel.

                                  I was left wanting a bit more as the song felt short overall and could have went deeper in the writing, but all art should leave you wanting more and this one certainly did that for me.”

                                    “The best music is always timeless, and very often beyond easy genre classification. That is the case with Hot Monday’s single, ‘Pale Ember.’ There are Indie Rock elements, and Americana elements which combine to give the track a Springsteen sort of threadbare vibe as well as an emotional brand of regret that permeates the delivery and makes it all feel so real. The writing is emotionally stirring and the performance conveys the feelings in every line. ”

                                      “The artistic delivery is phenomenal. Groz introduces us to a subtle story as a young girl then delivers her strength vocally as a woman. With the ballet dancers guiding her throughout her new single “Save Me” is about sticking around over the years because you never know when someone may need you. ”

                                        “Dezi’s dramatic yet dark new single “Sinner” brings anticipation and seduction. Surrounded by things that are either good or bad for you she sings about how her sins are what makes her happy. From a dramatic beat to a slow motion toward the two mark this is a track that will have you engaged in fantasy. ”
