TKO – Tung Chung May Day – EP Review The music of TKO couldn’t have possibly come at me at a better time. Last night I watched the movie Frank for the very first time…I’ll just say for music-lovers out there, it’s a movie you HAVE to see. Largely dealing with the spirituality and freedom […]Read More
Nick Festari – This Is Me…Slower And Faster – Album Review Alrighty Nick…I’ve read enough about you before listening to the music to know you’ve written close to 1000 songs (literally!) and that you’ve been making music in general for somewhere around 30 years. Finding a connection to sound at a young age as well […]Read More
Yellow Paper Planes – Feather’s Touch – EP Review This is all about texture…this is about precision in following the vision and bringin’ it to fruition…you know what I’m saying? Listening to Yellow Paper Planes and the new Feather’s Touch EP…jesus…I don’t even know how to describe just how much I’m loving what I’m hearing […]Read More
Dirty Dollar$ – “Deep Sweet” – Single Review If anyone would have been around me at the studio at the time I first played “Deep Sweet” by Dirty Dollar$, they would have heard an out-loud exclamation of “YES!” Doesn’t seem all that impressive until you consider the fact that I fully knew no one was […]Read More
Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats – The Night Creeper – Album Review Oddly enough…I kind of expected somehow I’d be latching onto Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats a little faster than I’ve been digging into it. I mean…a TON of the right ingredients are here…you can hear them all right away in the first cut […]Read More
Birthday Noose – Hang’em High – EP Review Just so happens…I’m a huge fan of The Black Angels, thanks so much for asking! Hmm…ok…wait…no one asked you say? Well…whatever…being well-versed in their dank, fuzzed out riff-rock is going to help me out in this review on Birthday Noose today…I can FEEL it! It is impossible […]Read More
1700 Monkey Ninjas – “Ahb Seshun” – Single Review Hmm…something about this name seems vaguely familiar… You kidding me? Over time, I might forget bands with names like The Wallflowers, Big Sugar, Muse…hell, even after a near-certain future spent battling alzheimer’s I’ll stand a chance at forgetting names like The Beatles and my favourites, The […]Read More
J-Luv Da Prince – In The Moment – EP Review We’ll keep the soulful vibe of the music on the page today intact and follow-up our review of solo-artist Charity with this new R&B, electro-infused EP from J-Luv Da Prince, In The Moment. The first thing that caught me as “Party Over Here” started-up, was […]Read More
Charity – Yellow – EP Review Awww – how can you NOT support a beautifully-expressive artist like this? Charity is taking sweetness to an all-new level on her latest release, the Yellow EP, with jazzed-up infusions of R&B, funk & soul all written with a modern-day nod to the old-school song-writers who have helped pave […]Read More
Reditus – Persona – EP Review I take a great pride in the connection I have with music and the ability to express it in words. In general, I’d say it’s an impossible task – so to get it anywhere even close to half-right is like an extraordinary accomplishment or stroke of luck each and […]Read More
