Hudson Rainer - Country Home [Review]

October 17, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Indie Rock, Folk

Rating: 4.5 out of 5

“Bringing a throwback sound, Hudson Rainer has channeled the vibe of vintage Neil Young and The Band to give us a track that feels both nostalgic and fresh.

Stripped down emotional music at its best. I like it! ”

      Zuffalo - Saskatchewan [Review]

      October 17, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Indie Rock

      Rating: 3.5 out of 5

      “This single puts off a solid Southern Rock vibe, but given Zuffalo hail from our neighbors up above, I suppose you will have to call this ... Northern Rock.

      The high vocal register works well here and the guitar riffs are old school alluring.”

        LUC - Glow [Review]

        October 16, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Indie Rock

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “This band out of Los Angeles describes themselves as LA Garagetronic. For me the sound came across as a dash of disco, and a whole lot of electro, but no matter how you describe it, this track has some juice.

        The vocals are sexy in a dystopian kind of way, and the entire single does indeed ‘Glow.’”

            “Samuel Jack captivates with his voice and vocal refrain on such a level, that it is easy to focus there and miss the power of these lyrics. However, ‘In My Head’ delivers an emotional punch in the songwriting department as well.”

                The Mark Ian Project -Make It Better (Ft. Arthur Kall) [Review]

                October 14, 2019 by Kreadiv Kesh

                Rating: 3 out of 5

                “When life is good you make it better and that is exactly what this song does when you listen to it.”
                — Kreadiv Kesh (LA On Lock Blogger)

                Featuring Arthur Kall, Mark Ian's debut single 'Make it better' is fun. That's it. This music will NOT make you cooler and does not harness the power of The Ramones, Johnny Cash or Che Guevarra shirts. In fact, it is a big hard middle finger to all that is hip. This writing team is comprised of two long time musicians, producers, performers that have worked with chart topping acts such as Canadian Rock legends; Triumph, Eleven Past One (Warner), Bradon Mig, Collie Buddz, and Jacynthe. The Track was mixed and Mastered by coveted producer Glen Robinson (Tea Party, George, martin, David Bowie and more..)Home made samples, live instruments, phat beats.. The track is eclectic and pure; fun and nasty; and in a league of it's own.

                          “There is a nice wordplay to the writing, and the vocal performance is a natural for such a song. Landing somewhere in the Americana, Singer/Songwriter spectrum of Folk music, ‘King of Diamonds’ is a track that is easy to fall into. I do wish we had heard more of the female voice that came in at the end.”

                                  Indee Killed the Pop Star x Olivia Knight - Coolest Kid [Review]

                                  “Starting out with sweet vocals and a simple melody, ‘Coolest Kid’ turns dark and dangerous and heavy along the way — which is perfect the lyrics and subject matter.

                                  A pop song that delves almost into a punk vibe, before settling into a heart breaker by the end.”

                                    “Old School smooth. A love song that would be as at home in the 1970s, as it is here in 2019.

                                    Never underestimate the timeless appeal of a simple melody and heartfelt lyrics.”

                                      “Dark, alluring, and intriguing, ‘Throwing Darts’ is a track that arrives with pinpoint accuracy.

                                      Powerful imagery to the songwriting and an engaging beat are perfect vessels for Bria Lee to showcase her talented vocals. ”

                                        “Wry and danceable, ‘Sadist’ is track we can all relate to, and despite the title, listening to this entertaining track certainly is far from painful. The underlying truths are delivered here with a inescapable beat and rhythm that keeps you engaged to the bitter end.”
