    Elodie Rêverie - Skeleton Castle [Review]

    September 06, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Singer/Songwriter, Music, Electro Pop

    Rating: 4.5 out of 5

    “Elodie Reverie drops a dark and alluring single about heritage and passion for where she came from. Her sultry voice draws us in, adding to the mystery of the past.

    This is the kind of track that will lure you to the dance floor, yet is also engaging and reflective enough to warrant play while sitting alone and thinking about the ghosts of your own pasts with a bit of Scotch in hand.

    Reflective and entertaining, with elements of pop to give it just a hint of commercial texture in all the right places, ‘Skeleton Castle’ is a single with depth. ”

      Effie - Worship [Music Video Review]

      September 03, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Singer/Songwriter, R&B

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “Smooth and sultry, Effie delivers a single about submitting to your desire and allowing yourself to succumb to those wants. The real allure to these lyrics is that they are about the empowering euphoria of admitting what you want, rather than a submissive take me approach.

      I don’t know where you went to church, but my idea of ‘Worship’ has never been this steamy and sexy. ”

        T-SMUV- Best of Me [Review]

        Rating: 5 out of 5

        “T-Smuv graces this track with his smooth vocals as he creates an aura of 90’s R&B love stories. Best of Me is a track not just for cuffing season but anniversaries because we all aim for that everlasting marathon type love. ”

          “I do love when music delivers true emotion, straight and direct, and that is what Peyton Gilliland does with “Drag Me Under.’ Lyrics with meaning, and a vocal performance that starts tender and vulnerable, before exploding with anger and defiance. Creation and performance mesh to form a great song.”

            “Love the vocal tone and how it breaks apart with vulnerability at times. I do feel like the beat and backing got in the way of the emotion in spots, but the songwriting is intriguing and the vocal performance very engaging.”

              Rating: 4.5 out of 5

              “With vocals that reminded of Elton John at times, Norman Kim unleashes a debut that demands we all pay attention.

              Both the video and the lyrics of ‘Nothing Wring With My Life’ feel like fun and I can’t help but think I am watching to arrival of a brand new star. Not on the far off horizon, in the here and now.”
              — Travis Erwin (LA on Lock Blogger)
              "Nothing Wrong with My Life" is my debut single and the first song out in the world off my debut album coming October 2019. I wrote it way back in 2011 when I first moved to LA right out of college to pursue a career as a film composer.

                  “Capturing a Beetles-esque vibe in both the single and the video, Jake Troth is indeed ‘Alive & Well’ in this tranquil ditty that brings to focus the inconsistencies of human emotions.

                                “Regret is a powerful emotion and this single taps into that with a raw, unfiltered approach.

                                Reflecting on the ‘what ifs’ of a failed relationship, Hanna Searl imagines what things might look like ‘In Another Life’ with soft, haunting vocals that touch the heart.”

                                  “In this thriller of a visual Dalton Jackson sings about be at a low point while he is being murdered. The symbolism displays that you really aren’t at your low point until you are on your death bed.”

                                    “Show me a glimpse of something wonderful ... so sings Lucy Clearwater in an early verse of her single ‘Feel Again.’ Taking that line to heart, Clearwater gives us far more than a glimpse of the wonderful with this slow and soft lullaby to love and longing.

                                    Beautifully sang and written the song captures that hope and yearning in perfect balance between performance and melody.”

                                      “What begins with haunting sweet vocals, morphs into an energetic promise to herself that resonates well with anyone who has ever taken a leap of faith.

                                      The first few verses have a decidedly singer/songwriter vibe and the latter half brings more of a pop sound, but the continuity of the song is never in question.”

                                        “With just enough gravel to his vocals, Philippe Bronchtein delivers a heartfelt song about the long perilous road that is life — which for most of us holds far more gravel than his voice.

                                        The emotion is real and true and the guitar melody played to perfection.”
