    Varas Careful - What You Wish For [Review]

    March 31, 2023 by Kreadiv Kesh

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “Energetic yet soothing vibes. The silkiness of the vocals over the up tempo beat give this song a flow that carries throughout. 80s techno with Euro infused stints make this a definitely “get up and dance” track. The way the lead guitar accents the lead vocalist emotion in the verses gives this song an added element that just keeps the listener listening.”

      Chris Kläfford - Maybe It’s Just Me [Music Review]

      March 31, 2023 by Travis Erwin in Music, Singer/Songwriter, Adult Contemporary, Americana

      Rating: 4.5 out of 5

      “If you wonder what Chris Kläfford sounds like, imagine an Adult Contemporary hit sung by Chris Stapleton and you will have a petty good idea. I am very intrigued by this Swedish artist and can’t wait to hear other works by him.

      Emotive and vocal strength are the first attributes that caught my attention, though this is also a very well-written track delivered with power and an emotive touch that rises above the fray. ”

        Francisco Martin - Passenger Princess [Music Video Review]

        March 31, 2023 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Neo-Soul, Adult Contemporary

        Rating: 4.5 out of 5

        “Falling in love in the warm Southern California sun. That is what this track felt like for me.

        Francisco Martin utilizes a talented vocal range to unfurl his Neo Soul track, ‘Passenger Princess.’ Like a fusion of Bruno Mars and Jack Johnson this is an easy soft track that adds a nice warm glow to your body, heart and soul.

        The bright sunlit video pairs perfectly with the entire vibe, so be sure and take time to watch and listen.”

          “The hook is easy to connect with here, and that is what first sold this track to me. Of course, the timing and vocal talent on the flow work to bring a groove and rhythm to this build that popped off and kept me eager for the next line.

          Zeke unleashes his brand of ‘Magic’ proving this Georgia rapper is one to keep an eye on for future releases.”

            STARRY EYES - Jetlag [Music Review]

            Rating: 4.5 out of 5

            “Music certainly has its fads and trends, though sometimes a simple, yet timeless sound is what best captivates and holds a listener. That is the case with ‘Jetlag’ from STARRY EYES.

            The writing is intricately delightful, and the classic build and sound could come from several musical eras though the end product does not feel dated in anyway. The vocals unfold in a smooth emotive tone and make you lose the world around you as the meaning and emotions penetrate your brain. ”

              Grayson Foster - Like a Fire [Music Review]

              Rating: 4 out of 5

              “A strong emotive track perfect for the Singer/Songwriter genre. Grayson Foster delivers this song with passioned, emotive strength and the end result is a timeless sound that will appeal to fans of artists ranging from the rock flavor of Springsteen to the Folk of John Craigie and the the Pop style of Harry Styles. That said Foster hasn’t created a derivative track, but rather one simply rooted in genuine artistry utilizing his own sound. ”

                “Ryan Winston creates a track that certainly reminded me of Calvin Harris though ‘Wierd Love’ does not feel derivative and the vocal talent of Leslie Ann Miller sells the emotion in a way that the track hooks from the very first verse.

                  “SASS gives us an interesting, genre-bending track with ‘Summer Baby.’ The overall vibe leans tot he Pop side though the track certainly delivers elements of R&B and Folk. The vocal side of the track has an old school Fine Young Cannibals vibe and the blend of these elements creates a unique edge and I can see this track reaching a wide audience with its mix of the familiar into a uniquely new sound. ”

                          The song reminded me a bit of Coldplay with more of an Indietronica vibe pushing it forward. The vocal performance is spot on, delivering passion and emotion that the listener can easily feel and connect with.”

                              “Lewis Fitzgerald is a twenty-one year old rising star. The UK singer/songwriter is joined here by WEWANTWRAITHS and the video has the two of them cruising through the streets of London as they delivery a track we can all relate to.

                              Life is indeed a ‘Short Ride,’ and sadly can be even far shorter than we plan, so this is a song to help remind us to live each day to our fullest.

                              Fitzgerald weighs in on the track saying ... ‘This song represents some of my childhood and things I went through, I had suicidal thoughts and attempts when I was younger and it’s kind of like my way of releasing that pain now through this sound, remembering how it was and how I thought at the time, it’s like me saying it to myself.’

                              Despite the heavy inspiration of the track, the single never feels overwrought, and it can simply be enjoyed as a smooth groove and entertaining song to brighten your world. ”

The various sets of vocals play well off each other and the build is an easy one to fall in and stick with. The track feels like a bit of a throwback but is certainly contemporary enough to hold modern audiences. ”

                                  “Angelic vocals over a reggae beat. Masterful to say the least. This song is truly a feel good vibe. ”

                                    “ This song literally rocks. From the tonal vocals of the lead singer to the raw drumming going on in the background. This song really brings the energy. If fights could be seen as sound, they would sound like this. Artistic but unconventionally raw. ”

                                      “I like how the artist vocals were mixed to sit on top of beat so that you really tune in on what he’s actually saying. The transition from the verse to the hook is well put together. The vocals on the hook bring a new type of life to the track. The artist bars you down while still giving you just enough emotion to keep you listening. If logic, met Kanye West production this is how I would envision it sounding.””

                                        “The tone of the lead’s vocals coming into the intro of the song match perfectly with the emotion and intent of the lyrics.

                                        Vibrant yet subtle guitar chords accompanied by a funky drum beat mixed with the soul of early 90s rock. Song could also be used for any soundtrack where the character just cruises away into the sunset. Overall well put together composition from start to finish. Love the late edition of the harp near the ending of the song.”
