    “Yesssssss to the energy. We want to sometimes loose ourselves within the instruments and melodic sounds of an artist. Fake & The Soul Aesthetic releases that kind of energy with their new single “Brown Sugah Chocolate. ”

      ARI - Legacy [Music Video Review]

      June 07, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Alternative, Rock

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “The beauty is this track feels just like what the title says ... a ‘Legacy.’

      Ari has a background performing as a frontman and actor, and this, his first solo music, showcases those talents with bold bravado vocally.

      I suspect we are about to hear a lot more out of ARI and already the single “Legacy” was tabbed by Rolls Royce to play a part in the luxury carmaker’s marketing for their signature model, Ghost.

      Given the classic rock sounds Ari is sending forth, I can’t wait to hear more off the new album.”
      — Travis Erwin (LA on Lock Blogger)
      This is the Official Music Video for LEGACY - the debut single from artist ARI. Directed by Timothy S. Jensen, and starring actress Emily Kimball. The song was produced by Casey Sullivan (One Eleven Studios).

        Wilder Woods - Someday Soon [Music Video Review]

        April 24, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Rock

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “Some songs and artists are tough to classify. Thus is the case with Wilder Woods and ‘Someday Soon.’ With a voice that demand your attention from the first note, to a simple yet, perfect melody this single made me pay attention. Lyrically, it feels like solid advice from a wise friend.

        This song offers both hope and sadness and is one to sit with and think about the ebbs and flow of life.”

          Little Dume - Curious [Review]

          Rating: 4.5 out of 5

          “The vocals grabbed me from the very first verse, and start to finish I was hooked. A nice mysterious melody adds to the flavor and a catchy chorus lends this track a timeless feel. The only thing I am ‘Curious’ about is what will the talented Little Dume deliver next? ”

                Anarbor

                Anarbor Release Highly Anticipated New Track “MIA”

                June 15, 2018 by Guest User in Alternative, Rock

                Anarbor is back in a big way with new single “MIA”. Hearing welcomed influences of pop-punk from the band’s early days, this track is one of those that nostalgically bring you back to the romantic indulgence of teenage angst.

                While the influence of early 2000s pop - rock is obvious, you also hear a sound that has expanded on this and that is crafted for today’s alt-pop audience. Taking a look at their massive onslaught of fans this sound transition is evident as their fanbase is still largely teens, only this time around the teens are of a different generation.

                Staying current is an impressive feat for any band that had made their rise in a different decade. Anarbor’s impeccable ability to do this comes from the band’s mastering of dynamics and their obvious curiosity for popular music. “MIA” gives us subdued but steady drum and bass lines putting focus on the double guitar and  Slade’s engagingly vulnerable vocals. The skillful backing sound mixed with the more show-y guitar riffs give Anarbor the rock-edge that keeps their music from ever fully entering into the pop world. By so carefully treading the line between pop and rock they are set up to attract both the masses as well as the more subversive pop and indie-rock enthusiasts.

                The group is currently on an America-wide tour playing a show-a-night (except Mondays) for the next couple of months. They have joined forces with popular indie rockers Alvarez Kings and WILD for various parts of their tour. They will be covering just about every corner of the United States so keep up with their tour schedule on Instagram and catch them live doing what they do best.
