Łaszewo x AVELLO - headrush [Music Review]

January 05, 2026 by Travis Erwin in Music, Future Bass, Dance, Pop
“Łaszewo and AVELLO join forces to give us all a delightful ‘headrush.’ The track has a nice Future Bass build and the strong writing and emotive vocals add depth that mean this is a song you can move to or simply listen and reflect on the songwriting and performance. ”

    Yeshi - Starlight [Music Review]

    January 05, 2026 by Travis Erwin in Music, Alternative, Pop, Dance
    “Yeshi puts an atmospheric stamp on the new year with her single, ‘Starlight.’ Created during a transformative trip to Los Angeles, Yeshi wrote, produced and recorded the vocals on her 25th birthday. Blending dreamy Pop with melodic Rap vocals the song is meant to reflect the feeling of stepping into a new chapter with confidence and clarity.”

      BIGBAGMACK -Tork [Review]

      December 30, 2025 by Kreadiv Kesh in Rap
      “TORK” by BigBagMack hits with raw energy and confidence, driven by a hard beat that matches his aggressive delivery. The track feels unapologetic and street-rooted, showcasing his ability to talk his talk without overcomplicating the message. Lyrically, it’s more about presence and attitude than storytelling, which works for the vibe he’s setting.

      Overall, “TORK” is a solid turn-up record that reinforces BigBagMack’s momentum and sound.”

          Ian McFarland - "Perfect Skin" [Music Video Review]

          December 16, 2025 by Kreadiv Kesh in Alternative, Rock
          “With Perfect Skin, Ian McFarland delivers a sound that feels as intentional with bold emotion, and undeniable character. His songwriting pairs seamlessly with the visual that evokes a cartoon-like clarity that still captures real depth.

            Drew Schueler - I Thought By Now [Music Review]

            December 11, 2025 by Travis Erwin in Music, Singer/Songwriter, Commercial
            “Drew Schueler is an award winning songwriter. ONe of those guys that is often labeled as the next big thing. Despite these accolades and a very promising future the phrase ... I thought by now I’d have more figured out, hit him hard.

            A sentiment many of us have had in multiple phases of life, but unliket he average person Schueler was able to take that doubt and resulting emotions and create a beautiful and heartfelt track that speak to the humanity of us all.”

              Savanna Leigh - nothing yet [Music Review]

              December 11, 2025 by Travis Erwin in Music, Alternative, Pop, Singer/Songwriter, Lyric Video
              “Fans named this single after Alt Pop songwriter, Savanna Leigh played the song and said its called ... well, nothing yet. The track gained attention from those live shows and fans started referring it it as ‘nothing yet’ and the name stuck.

              The track is a heartfelt look at a relationship you know will never work int he end and yet you plunge in anyway to pas time until you do find the right fit.”

                December 11, 2025 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Trap, Rap, Hip-Hop, Conscious
                “New Orlean Hip-Hop has always been influential on the scene and FARROW joins a group of talented artist to come out of the city. ‘Planting Seeds’ is a track about investing in your future by taking care of yourself and your business.

                  Bad Flamingo - Shame [Music Video Review]

                  December 11, 2025 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Indie Rock, Americana
                  “The masked seductresses are back. They often tantalize us with their evocative Western tinged Indie Rock, but this mysterious duo embraces the overtly sexy on this track and video. Bad Flamingo is always a vibe and this track only adds to the mystique.

                  With talent like this, Bad Flamingo definitely does not have any ‘Shame’ going toe-to-toe with any artist out there.”

                    Fox Robinson - So Many Ways to do Drugs [Music Review]

                    December 11, 2025 by Travis Erwin in Music, Punk, Pop
                    “This Comedic Punk track starts out sounding a bit like the Phineas and Ferb theme song and it is delivered a bit tongue in cheek. That said the social commentary is very real and on point. Fox Robinson has fun but still manages to say something and if that isn’t Punk I don’t know what is.”

                      “This sultry Pop track is all about rekindling that spark. Terra Ranae is ‘Wild Again’ about reinvigorating that early relationship thrill by doing whatever it takes to make the bedroom sizzle like the first time. Lust and love are not always the best of bedfellows and this song aims to change that in the sultriest of ways.”

                            “Soul” by 5 Fires, Kevin Rudolf, Merkules, and Di$tinct hits with gritty energy and smooth polish.

The production is cinematic and hard-hitting, making this a standout, genre-blending track that sticks with you.”

                              “Lil Pak steps into a new lane with “No Heart,” linking up with Gunna for a track that blends icy confidence with smooth, melodic flexing.

                              Lil Pak delivers sharp, focused verses that feel like he’s leveling up, tapping into a colder, more polished persona. Gunna slides in with his signature effortless flow, adding a glossy layer that elevates the entire record.”

                                Anthony Ruptak - Phantasmagoria [Music Video Review]

                                November 12, 2025 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Indie Rock, Folk
                                “Most of the time I like to use my own words int he reviews and songs I post. But occasionally I am compelled to share the artist’s thoughts. This is one of those times ...

                                ’Phantasmagoria’ is a broad collection of ruminations on the overall state of the world in the year 2025. As we try to navigate our roles and responsibilities during a time of rapid, volatile change, we become beaten down and desensitized to the massive scale of suffering taking place on this shared, warming planet. People are lonely, fatigued and scared. We grapple each day with chronic doom-scrolling and feelings of inadequacy and helplessness, watching the world burn from our phones, while the ultra-wealthy amass seemingly infinite capital, while the poor become poorer and the powers-that-be continue to decimate the planet. It’s an anthem for the apocalypse.

                                ... that summaray says more than I ever could. This is a song to hear and feel, and likely you’ll ponder the lines long after the song has faded from your speakers.”

                                  Sophia B - Jason [Music Review]

                                  November 12, 2025 by Travis Erwin in Music, Adult Contemporary, Commercial
                                  “Sophia B is but one of the latest talents to emerge out of Berklee and this smooth soulful track puts a new spin on heartbreak. Understanding the pain can be tough until you experience it for yourself and this song is about reflecting on a friend’s heartbreak after tasting it for yourself the first time. ‘Jason’ is a track that speaks of live and friendship and human empathy.”

                                    Samantha Leah -Smile [Review]

                                    November 11, 2025 by Kreadiv Kesh in Commercial
                                    “Samantha Leah’s “Smile” is a radiant reminder of how powerful simplicity can be. With her signature warmth and effortless vocal delivery, she crafts a song that feels like sunlight breaking through clouds gentle, affirming, and full of heart.

                                    The production is smooth and minimal, allowing Leah’s voice to lead with sincerity.”

                                      Forrest Day - Sweatshop Cathedral [Music Video Review]

                                      November 11, 2025 by Kreadiv Kesh in Alternative, Rock
                                      “Forrest Day’s “SWEATSHOP CATHEDRAL” isn’t just a music video it’s a visual sermon on chaos, control, and creative rebellion. True to his genre-blending style, Forrest delivers a performance that’s as cinematic as it is confrontational, mixing gritty realism with bursts of surreal energy.”

                                        Red Lotus -Hello Darlin’ [Review]

                                        November 11, 2025 by Kreadiv Kesh in Neo-Soul
                                        “Red Lotus returns with “Hello Darlin’,” a smooth and soulful escape that feels like an exhale after a long week. The track carries a calm, relaxed energy a gentle blend of R&B warmth and easy-listening groove that highlights Red Lotus’s signature ability to fuse emotion with restraint.

                                        Lyrically, “Hello Darlin’” feels like a tender check-in of a a love letter that’s part nostalgia, part present moment.”
