Jason Daniels – Cinematic Dreams – EP Review Well…either the blues are defined by the aspect of a song containing a slide-guitar part…or I’ve got some strangely-labelled MP3’s here that definitely led me to believe I’d be listening to something that sounds a lot different than what I started hearing on Cinematic Dreams by Jason […]Read More
RhythmRug – “Near Or Far” – Single Review After having been introduced to the music of RhythmRug a couple months back through the single-review of the song “The Giver” – it was fair to still not quite have an idea as to what to fully expect when getting my hands on the new-single called “Near […]Read More
DWARF – It’s About Time – Album Review If the sound of the lead-tune on It’s About Time by DWARF is any indication of what’s about to come at me here in my late-night listening…I’m about to fuckin LOVE LIFE. The opening-cut, “Misinformed” is nothing short of brilliant alt-indie/pop-rock bliss…there are no overly-rounded edges that […]Read More
Charming Timur – Funhouse – EP Review We’ve interacted with Santeri Lohi and his music-mayhem several times throughout the past couple years and have reviewed the Charming Timur albums of the past, along with a review on his side-project TwelveOfConfusion and even as a guest already on our most recent efforts in audio through the […]Read More

Using a range of talented […]Read More
Mike Tro – Who I Am…(Hello My Name Is) – Album Review There are audibly about a million-ways to create a first impression and establish that memorable impact right away…and Mike Tro has found yet another one with a twisted opening to his new album Who I Am…(Hello My Name Is) with a blown-out, off-kilter […]Read More
Jeremy Greene – More To Life – EP Review Something wicked this way comes… I kid, I kid…I just wanted to put a little shock into the Christian/religious following that has amassed around the music of electrifying solo-artist Jeremy Greene for a second or two. In case any clarification is needed – any references to […]Read More
Faceless Ones – “Love Letter” – Single Review Awesome stuff from Faceless Ones lead-single “Love Letter” – this one-man unit helmed by Julian Coiner is more than worth an examination…there’s something extraordinary going on here in this guy’s brain and I’m feeling pretty determined to get to the bottom of it all. So much so…that […]Read More
Jake Ward – “Take My Hand” – Single Review Alrighty! I have no clue where exactly the latest single from Jake Ward, “Take My Hand” came from…all I can tell ya is that it more than likely wasn’t from Jake or we probably would have had more than just links thrown our way! Completely unlike […]Read More
Kristin Chambers – Snow Globe – Album Review Oh Kristin…not you too! Thankfully…I know this is an artist we can rely on to deliver the goods – I just wasn’t expecting them pre-Halloween, or the rest of the Christmas-music that has already come our way this year for that matter. But I’ll save her the […]Read More
