Anais Campbell - Small Things Everyday [Music Review]

March 06, 2026 by Travis Erwin in Music, Alternative, Pop, Americana
“A stripped down Alt Pop track with Americana vibes is what you can expect from Anais Campbell’s track, ‘Small Things Everyday.’ The Australian songstress leans into tender emotion with a soft but powerful vocal delivery and writing that should appeal to the emotions of any dreamer.”

    Archi Deep - We All Live in a Fantasy [Music Review]

    March 06, 2026 by Travis Erwin in Music, Indie Rock, Alternative, Punk, Rock
    “Straddling the line between Indie Rock and Punk, Archi Deep delivers a high energy performance with “We All Live in a Fantasy.” The track looks at the walls and protections we build around us as protection but that bubble isn’t true reality and sometimes we are forced to see the truth beyond.”

      Ryann Ross - Blubird [Music Video Review]

      March 06, 2026 by Travis Erwin in Music, Alternative, Pop
      “Like a modern Carly Simon, rising songstress, Ryann Ross unleashes a quietly powerful track that will stick to your bones long after the last note. ‘Blubird’ is a stripped down emotional experience you can feel as much as hear. and the video does a great job of giving visuals to intensify the emotions of the songwriting.”

        Caelen Perkins - Happy Song [Music Review]

        March 06, 2026 by Travis Erwin in Music, Folk, Punk
        “The modern world needs more wry Folk Punk as it is the perfect way to distill all the madness going on in a digestible form for all. Caelen Perkins is an artist adept at that ranging from political to tongue in cheek looks at life and ‘Happy Song’ is a great gateway to his music for those who haven’t yet had the pleasure. This song is a bit like South Park in musical form as there is always a bit more going on than you first assume. ”

          Di$tinct - KNOWN FOR [Music Review]

          March 06, 2026 by Travis Erwin in Music, Rap, Hip-Hop, Electronic, Conscious
          “Two-time Canadian Choice Award winner Di$tinct unleashes what he is ‘KNOWN FOR.’ And what he is known for is with a strong hook and rhythmic delivery that not only holds your attention but demands repeat listens. A little old school Gangsta Rap style mixed with a modern contemporary pace and writing gives this track pop and a strong hook. ”

            Paris WYA - Hate You More [Music Video Review]

            March 06, 2026 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Electro Pop, Commercial
            “Paris WYA will no doubt draw some Taylor Swift comparison with this Pop breakup anthem. ‘Hate You More’ is one of those venomous tracks where jaded disdain is disguised by a light airy tone. Or perhaps it should be listened to as a freedom anthem because often that is what a break up is about, freedom.”

              February 08, 2026 by Travis Erwin in Music, Hip-Hop, Conscious
              “Indigenous artist and electronic pioneer, Shub is back with a unique vibe on ‘Legacy.’ Blending SHUB’s signature powwow step sound with Southern US Hip-Hop, the track also features DJ Paul of Three 6 Mafia and the evocative vocals of Nova Rx.”

                February 08, 2026 by Travis Erwin in Music, Neo-Soul, Hip-Hop
                “Anonimuss Rose takes ont he haters and doubters with ‘American Dreamer’ in a Neo-Soul Hip-Hop influenced track that wraps around the listener and pulls them toward the climax of an engaging bit of songwriting. The track asks as many questions as it answers, and in doing so forces the listener to take a look at their own personal journey. ”

                  CRITICAL ACTION - You Said You Wanted a Fight [Music Review]

                  February 08, 2026 by Travis Erwin in Music, Contemporary R&B
                  “Music often takes the artistic lead in fighting social injustice and as the world gets more contentious everyday we see music following suit. ‘You Said You Wanted a Fight’ highlights the fact we need to stand up and let our voices heard.

                  CRITICAL ACTION had this to say about the track. ‘At moments like these - when social tension is high and people are told resistance is futile or dangerous the song insists that this cycle isn’t new. Repeating the line “you’ve been here a thousand times,” it connects current struggles to past victories and treats memory itself as a form of resistance. This is message-forward, politically conscious music meant to be engaged with, not background listening.’”

                    “Old School Hip-Hop meets Punk in ‘Rivals,’ a collab from the Codefendants and THE D.O.C. Th track brings grit and intensity and each listen gives you something you previously missed. Dive in and fel this one unfurl.

                      TENDER - Heavy [Music Review]

                      February 08, 2026 by Travis Erwin in Music, Indie Rock, Indie Pop, Alternative
                      “UK indie duo TENDER have released ‘Heavy’ the lead single from their fourth studio album, “Where The Waves Break,” set for release June 4th, 2026.

                      ’Heavy’ comes in with a grooved intro that has you leaning in even before the almost sinister vocal style comes in. TENDER said, “It sets the tone for a record that explores the push and pull of opposing emotional forces, from certainty and contentment to doubt and restlessness.”

                      The track itself is about having a crisis of identity even though life is seemingly going well.”

                        “Frida and The Mann unleash a haunting and brooding track that grips the soul and makes you think about those close to you. No betrayal hurts like those closest to you and sometimes those are the ‘Monsters’ we never quite escape. This masterful song is an exquisitely delivered vibe about that very thing.”

                          February 08, 2026 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Singer/Songwriter, Pop
                          “Welsh singer, Jasmine Power is ready to take a huge ‘LEAP,’ to stardom with this uplifting track. The song has some 90s Pop sensibilities but does not feel dated and the song certainly fits nicely in today’s musical landscape. The vocals soar when appropriate and feel more vulnerable and tender when the emotions dictate. A finely written and performed track that will stand the test of time as only true great songs can.”

                                “The “XO to the Grave” music video by Lø Spirit delivers a visually engaging blend of alternative rock energy and heartfelt personal moments. The dynamic performance shots are elevated by the incorporation of cute family home videos, which bring a warm, nostalgic contrast to the track’s driving sound. These candid clips add emotional depth, making the video feel both powerful and intimate. Overall, it’s a creative visual that complements the song’s intensity while celebrating real‑life connection.”

                                  February 01, 2026 by Kreadiv Kesh in Pop
                                  “ArieS delivers smooth vocals over upbeat production, blending playful lyrics with a fun, carefree vibe. It’s a feel‑good track that’s perfect for nights out or late‑night drives.”

                                      Jordi Time - Zones [Review]

                                      February 01, 2026 by Kreadiv Kesh in Pop, Adult Contemporary
                                      “Time Zones” by Jordi is a mellow, introspective track that blends smooth vocals with atmospheric production. The lyrics explore emotional distance and longing, making it feel personal and relatable. It’s a reflective, soothing song that lingers in the listener’s mind.”

                                        February 01, 2026 by Kreadiv Kesh in Country
                                        “Like You” by Rivertown is a warm, melodic track that blends heartfelt lyrics with smooth, inviting production. The song’s easygoing rhythm and genuine vocals create a cozy, reflective vibe that sticks with you. It’s a feel-good listen that highlights the band’s knack for catchy, emotional songwriting.”
