James Keen – “Falling Or Flying”

James Keen – “Falling Or Flying” – Single Review Strong tune from James Keen here. I often do this thing as I’m listening to music, you might do it too…do you ever try to fill in the blanks?  Like, once I recognize a melodic pattern, I start to naturally guess what the lyrics will be […]Read More

The Infidels – Lobotomy

The Infidels – Lobotomy – Album Review This whole realm of music is an interesting place I tells ya.  Some folks out there will call a seven song record an EP, some will insist it’s an album.  Some will tell ya it depends on the length of the total amount of time that determines which […]Read More

Piero – “Spell”

Piero – “Spell” – Single Review I’ve been pretty damn addicted to this song since the moment I heard it, and I can’t see that my need to hear it again is gonna calm down outta nowhere anytime soon. I first learned about Piero, aka Piero Widyastana, somewhere back in the middle of 2021 if […]Read More

Fola Amoo – “Jehovah Shamama” / “Bayethe Nkosi”

Fola Amoo – “Jehovah Shamama” / “Bayethe Nkosi” – Singles Review A sixteen-minute long song is certainly a challenge to get people to listen to, but you have to admire the ambition of creating something so involved.  I mean, heck, you’ve probably heard EPs that are shorter than what you’ll find in Fola Amoo’s “Jehovah […]Read More

Firekind – “One Thing”

Firekind – “One Thing” – Single Review Alrighty…let’s see…where were we? Ahh yes!  Way back in 2015… Honestly, I’m not kidding.  Back in the summer of 2015, I was 100% convinced that I was witnessing something remarkably special through the music of Firekind when I heard it for the very first time.  I believe, if […]Read More

Marte B – PPXP Sessions

Marte B – PPXP Sessions – EP Review Ayyy there we go!  One of my favorite new voices from way out yonder across the map has come on back to us.  Exciting! We first learned of Marte B, aka Marte Holter Balerud, from hearing her on a song called “Space-time” from Polyphonic Exophilia’s Vol. 3 […]Read More

Zanilonia – “MacGuffins Of The Mind”

Zanilonia – “MacGuffins Of The Mind” – Single Review As I sat here trying to recall where the heck I’d seen the word or name MacGuffin in the past, and couldn’t do it, eventually I resorted to Google.  That’s one of the things about us writers I suppose – we tend to have a solid […]Read More

Garage T. Rashington III – Acoustic Slop

Garage T. Rashington III – Acoustic Slop – Album Review ADULT CONTEMPORARY.  Fuck. Okay, I’m kidding.  It’s not that. A DUDE AND A GUITAR.  Acoustic Slop. Alright, that’s what it is, but it’s probably fair to say it’s more than that too. I’ll tell ya this much, this guy is never gonna be normal in […]Read More
