Zawezo Del’ Patio – “Vete Pal Carajo” – Single Review Here’s an inventive track! Definitely loving the electro-groove & beat to Zawezo Del’ Patio’s new single, “Vete Pal Carajo!” Not only does it have an extremely-smooth vocal flow that runs deep throughout this latest release but the highly innovative creation & assembly of it all […]Read More
Nick Peay – Sobering – EP Review Armed with a whole crew of talented musicians to bring his songs to life, solo-artist Nick Peay has released the Sobering EP just a little earlier this September into the world awaiting. Those looking for an authentic acoustic/rock sound in the spirit of bands or artists like Toad […]Read More
Ships Have Sailed – Re: Mix – EP Review Will Carpenter and Daniel Hange…let me just tell ya guys…you are DANGEROUS! I feel like each of these songs were designed to fit squarely into my rounded face-holes never to leave now that I’ve heard the latest EP, Re: Mix. Incidentally…that’s a freakin’ brilliant title – […]Read More
Steve Nick – Unplugged – EP Review I almost don’t quite know what to make of this one! An Unplugged EP full of covers from a man two-letters away and likely mistaken in print by many as Fleetwood Mac’s Stevie Nicks enough times to fill a page at least I’m sure – we’ve got Steve […]Read More
3MV – “Down To You (GMinor Industrial Mix)” – Single Review Smart idea from 3MV to use a bonus track from the recording sessions of their upcoming album Detours as a lead-in…a warm-up for your musical palette so to speak. In fact…if you listen closely to the very beginnings of “Down To You (GMinor Industrial […]Read More

Similar to how […]Read More
Last Ronin – Incognito – EP Review Glitch-Hop! How has THAT sub-genre of other main-genres eluded me, at least by name, after all these years? That’s really a fantastic term to describe much of what I personally listen to – especially if its true definition is anything close to what Last Ronin is creating – […]Read More
Laura Clare – “Expensive Love” – Single Review There’s pretty much everything working against me on this particular review…please know I’ve done my best to remain objective. Not only is Laura Clare a fantastic singer-songwriter who has definitely got herself a hit-song on her hands with “Expensive Love” but she’s ALSO from my favourite musical-place […]Read More
Against Time – Against Time – EP Review Heavy rock-band from Ottawa, Against Time makes a punishing mix of sludgy guitars, bass & drums – the meat & potatoes to go with the vocals – much like the inventive title to the new EP, this isn’t a band here to build themselves on flash & […]Read More
Walrus Tales & Planet V – “Matchsticks” – Single Review Sometimes you can’t believe everything you read or hear…no matter how much you might like or appreciate your source of information. Take the Soundcloud page that houses the new-single “Matchsticks” from the collaborative efforts of Planet V & Walrus Tales – if we’re to believe […]Read More
