Rec Hall - Pontiac [Music Video Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Rec Hall is a trio of So Cal musicians making music that somehow feels both retro and contemporary at the same time. Likewise, ‘Pontiac’ is a track about both nostalgia and reconnecting. Reconnecting via nostalgia perhaps but either way the sound feels like warm sunshine and hope. Like summer good times and the approaching weekend. Hard to describe, but easy to feel when you are in those magical in-between places where everything has potential. Give it a listen and see what I mean.”

Caroline Romano - St. George [Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“The end of a relationship can feel like the death of a loved one and going through the such grief takes time. Often we eventually emerge on the other side stronger and only then can we appreciate what we once had. This track follows that pattern and Caroline Roman’s talent vocals sell the story as much as the artful writing. ‘St George’ is a song with heart, and genuine humanness to its spirit. ”

Oliver Sullivan - High Above (ft. Jetason) [Music Video Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“This Deep House track is a true international affair with a Nashville based, Australian handling the vocals over Oliver’s Sullivan’s production. The track was mixed in Switzerland, Sullivan’s native land, and mastered in Munich. The end result is a clean engaging track that simply feels right in every choice. made along the way. ”

Todd Binder - Real Love [Music Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

CONFUSHANE? -ATOMIC! [Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“I almost thought I was listening to Pusha T when this track came on. Distinctive vocal timbre and tone. Techno, trap fused production. This song just sounds big. Witty bars similar to those of great arrangers like Kanye West. I could hear this song on a G.O.O.D Music compilation. This song is polished and well put together all the way down to the post production. ”

Buzzcut -Right Time [Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“A soft but energy filled jam. The harmonies are beautifully sung and placed throughout the track to really bring out the bounce. Slamming snares and kick with vocals reminiscent of early 2000s pop rock bands. This song could be a real hit, both commercially and performance wise. Great overall listen.”

Reece L. -Black Shine (feat. Triptojaitown) [Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Thoughts of a hustler and mind of a lover. This descriptive song gives a breakdown of the thoughts of this artist on his female counterpart. What man doesn’t wanna know if you’re ride or slide when things really get hard. An anthem for any man to relate to with a catchy, melodic hook and chill verses.”

ZZ Ward - On One [Music Video Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“ZZ Ward has the vocal chops to do anything she damn well pleases. Much like P!nk, you never quite know what style you are going to get with a ZZ Ward track and ‘On One’ gives your several in one neat package.

There is high energy Blues, a cutting Rock edge, and a sprinkling of a Pop brand of Hip Hop all within this single song. The energy comes straight at you and the power is evident on every note. And the video is a fun ride as well!”

Rating: 4 out of 5

WiseWords -Eyes Wide [Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Consciousness over a beat. The artist lay down lyrical law while not wasting a single bar on nonsense. These guys speak to your mental and of mental elevation but in a cool way to where it doesn’t feel preachy. The sample adds the extra zing the track needs to make it a track you can just turn on and vibe to. Each artist compliments the other and contributes to the overall chill flow of “Eyes Wide”.”

Jay Kira -Triple Sec [Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“The timbre of this artist vocal tone cuts right through the production and dances across the beat. Trap kicks and snares banging out while leaving enough room for the artist to do his thing. Then boom, the unexpected beat change. Although the artist doesn’t change his cadence, he still finds a way to deliver an energetic delivery in his monotone vocal style. ”

Jay Anxious -White Lies [Review]

Rating 4 out of 5

The Never Ending Fall -Wasn’t So Bad [Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“The intro draws you in sensual vocals, then “boom” you’re hit with a world wind of rock guitars and heavy drums. Right when you think you’re in for some head banging action, the artist pulls back into a chill delivery for the verse. This song is a roller coaster of energy and melody. Nostalgic rock feel that makes you reminisce on the great rock classics from the late 80s and glam era.”
