mentalEscape – Upgrade – Album Review Well holy shit, would you look at that! Somehow it’s already been more than three years since the last time we had mentalEscape up on our pages? I tell ya folks, the best thing about time flying by in this line of ‘work’ that I’m in, is that when […]Read More
Timeseven – “When We Were Young” – Single Review Way back in February, when I reviewed a single called “When You’re Home” by Timeseven, I was pretty convinced that the professionalism, the songwriting, and the high level of execution from its founder William Hayden & his band of studio aces would pretty much crack that […]Read More
DJ N3RV0U5 – “You Better Run” – Single Review What in the actual fuck? DJ N3RV0US might just be onto something here. At the very least, it was a heckin’ good idea to release his new single “You Better Run” in time for the ol’ Halloween season – this is one seriously twisted tale! I’ve […]Read More
LifeSpiral-MJR – “INTO THE FUTURE” Feat. MITSUKI – Single Review It’s not too often that it happens folks, but every so often, I’ll get a song that sounds exactly like what someone tells me it’ll sound like. When I received “INTO THE FUTURE” by LifeSpiral-MJR featuring the vocals of MITSUKI, I was told it was […]Read More
BLOOODHOUND – CounterTransfer+ – Album Review Ohhhhh I tell ya folks…if only I loved half the music that came my way as much as I love the music of BLOOODHOUND, I’d be way more confident about doing what I do for another twelve whole years. Alas, there really is only ONE BLOOODHOUND out there, which […]Read More
Claire Michele – “Star Signs” – Single Review Ayyyy – I love a real debut! Unless she’s got something buried deep somewhere in the darkest corners of the internet that I haven’t checked out, then from what I can tell, “Star Signs” is the first solo track that singer/songwriter Claire Michele has put out into […]Read More
Kid Anansi – “Diary Of A Lost Man” / “Let Me Tell You A Little Bit About Myself (Live)” – Singles Review I’m always up for some Spoken Word – let’s check this out! I’ve got some samples here from Kid Anansi’s latest album…spoiler alert, I might have maybe checked out the entire thing more […]Read More
Rasmus Fynbo – A Speck Of Light – Album Review The brand-new Rasmus Fynbo album is out today! Rejoice! Or do whatever it is you do to celebrate…no judgements here. Personally, I’m happy to have this dude back in action, and I’d imagine that I’m not alone in feeling that way. If you’ve been paying […]Read More
Luna Carina – “closer baby closer” / “太远的人” Feat. Su San – Singles Review It was definitely no surprise to me that Luna Carina sounded fantastic right from the drop of pushing play on “closer baby closer” – this collaborative-minded crew exceeded any possible expectations the last time I reviewed them back in 2022, and […]Read More
MJayNumberOne – SUMMERtime POPsicles – Album Review Hmmmmm… Alright…from what I understand, the majority of the tracks you’ll hear on SUMMERtime POPsicles by MJayNumberOne trace back about a decade, so perhaps it’s only natural that the opening track “Summatyme (Oh Yeah!)” sounds like it came right off one of the early Afroman albums. Though, to […]Read More
