Skuzii - Ha-Bitch-Ual [Review]

December 20, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Rap, Hip-Hop, Conscious

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Riding a slow and steady beat, Skuzii drops a low-key flow that speaks some truths that resonates well. The chorus establishes a nice groove that holds you in between verses that call out society, as well as the ideals and thoughts most of us have at one time or another.

This is a laid-back track that will make you think about both yesterday and tomorrow. ”

    KILLBOY - JUST ME [Review]

    December 20, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Commercial

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “An appealing tone, and a steady beat hooked me early on even as I struggled to connect lyrically. This is the kind of track that pulls you in fast with beat, melody and vocal talent, but it takes several listens to fully decipher and digest the lyrics. The beauty of this is that you get surprised in the best way with subsequent listens. ”

      Lauren Sanderson - To the People I Hurt [Review]

      December 18, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop

      Rating: 4.5 out of 5

      “I am a sucker for stripped down emotion in music, and Lauren Sanderson has given us exactly that with this single.

      None of us are exempt from causing pain to others. Sometimes it is even inevitable, but at our best we can be open and honest and admit our mistakes, as well as our true intentions. This song is all about that. ”

              “Flipsyde might not have registered on your radar in a while, but this new single “Imagine Peace” is engaging and entertaining and proves the group still has wait it takes to hook you with a nice blend of voices and talents.

              If you are unfamiliar with Flipsyde, you should catch up on their blacklist right after you give this track a listen.”

                          “Delivering a nice Alternative sound bordering on Americana, Morningbird’s latest single conjures emotional thoughts of nostalgia in the pursuit of love and a better life.

                          The song does a nice job of reflection, followed by self-realization that it is time to move on to the next phase.”

                                  The Mitras - Please [Review]

                                  December 13, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Alternative

                                  “This track will no doubt conjure up thoughts of Cobain, but The Mitras sound offers far more than similarities to Nirvana.

                                  Many influences are at work here and they manifest in a set of vocals and melody that stands on its own in Alternative Rock glory.

                                  ’Please’ isn’t a question or a plea in this case, but a demand to be heard. ”

                                    “A nice cadence pulled me in from the start before the track settled in and hooked me lyrically. Talent and production meshed quite well here to create a track that holds you and leaves you wanting more. ”

                                      “A track that builds in both energy and lyrical context until you are totally immersed and hooked. Then it offers a surprisingly chill exit to complete the ride.”

                                        “The beat and production are light and airy which are the perfect accompaniment to the engaging vocals on this track. That is not to say this is a fluff piece, because the writing is sharp and the track brings a true resonance that is perfect for the upbeat tone. ”
