iLUMiNATiVE – Shapeshifter – EP Review That’s quite the roar that this record starts with – it’s damn near intimidating to listen to! Of course…perhaps that should be expected – we are dealing with Nu-Metal here today after all – and when it’s done RIGHT, you get intensity like you’ll find on iLUMiNATiVE’s new EP […]Read More
MELØ – Things We Lost – EP Review Right next door to us here at sleepingbagstudios in Ottawa, (at least, that is for the time being until our special announcement coming this summer…stay tuned for that!) based out of Windsor, Ontario, solo-artist MELØ has been making major moves with his music over the course of […]Read More
SammyG300 – Delayed Satisfaction – EP Review I’ll tell ya this much…you’ll notice the highly relevant sound of SammyG300 from the moment you push play and his new EP kicks in through the opening track called “What It Takes” – you really couldn’t miss it. “They told me that one day I’d shine,” as you’ll […]Read More
Blue MOON Science – Tides And… – EP Review Definitely one of those records with a lil’ something for everyone, you feel me?

Jacob Hauge Mateo & Ben Bushill – Quiet Majesty – EP Review I loved every moment of this experience, straight up. There are far too few records out there that celebrate the art of Spoken Word like this one does. Right from the very cover of the album, you can see that Jacob Hauge Mateo […]Read More
Sadcult – Everything You Hate – EP Review These guys are SO GRUNGE that the last thing they’d ever do is say hello to a critical hack like me on the way in the door…fuck that shit…gotta keep those feelings nicely detached & a flannel-level of cool intact. The joke’s on them – 99% of […]Read More
Noho Fidel And _______ – Collaboratorium – EP Review “Honesty is valued more than kindness.” #AmenToThat Lemme put good ol’ Noho Fidel at ease here, and assure the dude that’s the only way that I know how to work…that’s how this whole system/machine here runs. However…experience has taught me that you get a whole lot […]Read More
Paul de Leon – Younger Years – EP Review Absolutely STOKED to have this man back in the spotlight and his music coming through our speakers once again. Obviously the main concern here is the fact that it’s been about three years and I’ve promoted Paul de Leon’s music about just as much as he […]Read More
Forest City & Friends – Sol – EP Review Feels like it’s been forever since we last had Forest City & Friends on our pages, when in fact it was just a couple years back…they’re basically right on time with a new release, crankin’ out material at a steady rate that no one, including me, […]Read More
