“A Disco era throwback with enough of an Electro Pop contemporary vibe to make it feel fresh and contemporary.
One of these days we will all be able to return to the dance floor, and ‘Magnetic’ from Bashaya Soul should be one of the tracks spun to get us up and moving when that day arrives.”
“Coming with a threadbare and almost pained, brand of vocal delivery, Folkus unleashes the emotion behind ‘Blue’ with an intensity that is captivating. The melody and lyrics play perfect roles in the progression and build, but it is the vocal performance here that hooks you and refuses to let go.”
“A smooth and sensual track about the power of love and lust. For me, the cadence and groove really set the mood for the lyrics and emotive vocal delivery. Grayson Ty has the talent to make the simple arrangement work on this single, because he makes you feel every last word.”
“There is nothing like harmonic vocals. Singer and Songwriter, Lo Knowles new single ‘The One Where They Run’ is about going to a place that is peaceful and free. Even when you are on the run from your emotions its ok to escape to your own place. The finger snapping draws in the melody even more.”

“When you hear the name Wingman you think of someone who helps or guides others. However, Artist Wingman is full of aviation. In his new single ‘One Foot In’ he is talking about how he comes in grabbing everything he wants. The west coast rapper’s sound is a unique blend of EDM and Rap that will have you vibin to it . As he is leading a career with ‘One Foot In’ he is picking himself up from the dirt and piloting his own aircraft.”
Wingman is an LA-based electronic/rap artist at the intersection of big beats and daring aviation. Makes absolutely no sense, and yet makes perfect sense. Weird New Feelings, the debut album from Wingman, is an energetic coming-of-age story about becoming a flashy west coast rapper who pilots insane aircraft. I'm taking off at LAX while filming a fire music video. Who does that? Wingman does that.
“Combining the the talents of LA area singer and songwriter, Jazelle Paris, and Zurich based producer, Bilgi, ‘Fade Away’ is a mesmerizing track that I ironically expect to do anything but fade away.
Paris not only supplied the vocals but also wrote the lyrics and melodies to the Electro Pop track that captures the fleeting thoughts and feelings of a high octane relationship slipping away into the night.”
“This high-energy hype track feels like the perfect add to your workout playlist. On ‘Turn The Light On,’ Mighty infuses a catchy hook and a nice rising progression to give us this track which feels like something between an infectious dance floor mix and a big bold sports anthem ready for the arena.”
“Thanks to the incredible vocal talent of Kelli-Leigh, ‘Can’t Get Enough’ is both the title of her latest single, and an apt description of listener’s reaction to her sound.
Her performance here is silky and smooth, landing in the sweet groove of a pure R&B sound, with just a hint of a more commercial sound coming through in the arrangement.”
“Sometimes you hear echoes of music past in a track, and in them, you find your connection. ‘Kleptomania’ conjured a blend of Foreigner and Michael Jackson for me, and while few similarities exist between those acts, the blend here is energetic and sharp. Nothing but a Nightmare has submitted several songs to us and the talent always shines. Their diversity of sound truly makes the band stand out and capture my interest.”
“Amplified can flat out spit, but don’t be fooled by the speed and proficiency of his flow, because behind it is a set of hard hitting lyrics with something to say. It might take you a few listens to pick up all the nuances, but ‘Look Like’ packs in plenty of lines with punch, and you can’t deny the skill with which they are dropped on this track.”
“A pure Rock anthem for anyone that has ever had trouble playing it cool.
Nothing but a Nightmare delivers an energetic true rock sound, and their latest single ‘Problems Being Cool’ defies the traditional cliches of the genre, to bring forth a track with both heart and grit. ”
“Swan Levitt delivers a soft emotional track about finding peace and a way forward after a hard time. Written specifically about recovery, ‘Someday Soon’ has even a broader relevance in the word as we all try to find a new path after a tough traumatic year.
In the words of Levitt ... ‘This is about getting back to where you were before it went so wrong...perhaps lying to yourself a little in the mean time. But things will get better, eventually.’ In the meanwhile, a touching song like this can help us feel like we are not alone.”
“This year has been filled with many deaths and tears. Veldor’s new single ‘Bat Shit Crazy’ pretty much sums the year up. He sings about living right, being alive and getting through the bad days. Some people get lost in their pain and discover their own gate way to take the pain away. This may cause pain to others as they drift away to the other side.”
“BurrLin’s new single ‘2-Step’ comes in strong with a suspenseful stomp intro and shows us the sound of a multi-talented man. With a flow like legendary artists Nas and Nipsey, BurrLin is 2-Stepping through the streets of Cali; musically laying out a map of why the West Coast is the best coast.”
“Are you a good or bad girlfriend?
Christina Hart’s new single points out that sometimes we have flaws and baggage but its ok. In her new electro- pop single ‘Bad Girlfriend’ she points out the pros and cons of being with her. This is the opposite of crushing but more of a heads up of what type of person you are loving.”
“Rett Madison. Remember that name. Her latest single ‘Kerosene’ is a true burner in every sense. The lyrical power is undeniable, but it is the emotive vocal style that truly makes Madison feel special in that Jason Isbell kind of way.
There is a country twang to her voice at times, but this is no commercial Nashville pablum. This is heartfelt Folk or more aptly Americana that demands you sit and listen and feel the emotion of the words and performance. ”
“Dropping in with a stream of conscious vibe, Logan Yeater utilizes sharp lyrics, and a powerfully melancholic delivery style to infuse this track with a strong sense of place, time, and emotion. The emotive flow is one that hooks and holds despite not having the kind of glossy repetitive hook that often dominates the music scene. Here such a thing is not needed, as this is a song that you simply feel as it unfolds.”
“It is the rare song that can come with a tongue-in-cheek set of lyrics and still mange to pull of a meaningful track. Scott Luka has done it here with ‘In The Club,’ which originally was meant as a sarcastic condemnation on the often cliched tropes prevalent in a lot of popular music, but along the way the track became a bit more nostalgic for me and that left me feeling sort of caught in between musical worlds and times. Reminiscent for the past, and reluctant but hopeful for that next great thing. In this music is like life and here all of it felt very tangible for me.”
“Expressing your feelings is never easy and quite often we turn to liquid courage to speak our heart. ‘One in a Million’ is a Pop-ish, R&B track about two lovers reluctant to admit they are falling for one another in a lasting kind of way. Jesse Gold shines here as does his duet partner and the two voices combine to keep the listener emotionally invested.”
“In what is the debut single for Wax Owls, ‘Set It Free’ is a big soaring brand of Commercial Folk. Falling into a stratosphere somewhere between Mumford & Sons and Tom Petty the band’s sound feels lively and emotional on this track. Lyrically, the song is about moving back and sort of facing your past while acknowledging the roads you’ve traveled. ”
