Project Pronin – Soundcloud Singles Reviewed You have to love the experimental-electronic genre of music, especially on an independent level. Generally speaking, this entire style of music houses some really innovative songs in addition to scores of bands that just don’t really know how to define their sound, so ‘experimental’ it becomes whether accurate or […]Read More
BJ Smith – “On Fire” – Single Review A smooth ride & good effort on BJ Smith’s latest single “On Fire.” Based in old-school R&B rhythms…we’re talking about a hot relationship down to the embers from a flame once burning strong. Despite its mid-tempo pleasant vibe, sweet harmonies and funktastic bass-line, this ain’t no happy […]Read More
The Unravelling – “Master Drone” – Single Review If you read into the backstory on lead-singer for The Unravelling – Steve Moore…it’s pretty inspiring stuff. Next-door neighbours to our province in B.C. – in Calgary, Alberta Steve had been battling cancer diagnosed officially in 2011 up until recently kicking its ass into remission and eventual […]Read More

One being that I’m a crusty, old & bitter version of the beautiful butterfly I […]Read More
Haiqeem – “Don’t Give A Damn” – Single Review This doesn’t happen very often at all…but I think I’m honestly stumped here on whether or not the people out there will be able to following along with what Haiqeem is creating. With a clever, groovy bass-line opening, it’s almost hard to see that hard-rock edge […]Read More
TK – “I Don’t Know” – Single Review For realz…how REAL is this? A solid time-out from TK on this brand-new single “I Don’t Know” – I busted out into an instant grin from ear-to-ear the moment that he started up his hustle & flow because I could hear hooks coming at me from every […]Read More
Christone – “It’s Up To You” – Single Release Interesting tune from Christone…I don’t know that I’ve ever heard quite such a mix of eighties anthem-rock ideals meeting modern-day Mraz/Mayer sounds combined like this before. On my first pass through listening to the single, I almost couldn’t quite get my head around the entire enormity […]Read More
Zero Verdict – “Train” – Single/Music Video Release Gotta say…I’m impressed with this full-frontal new rock assault from Zero Verdict! We’re familiar with the music of this four-piece band from Oulu, Finland as we’ve reviewed their previous EP Clarity nearly a year ago now and it looks like we’ve got our hands & ears on […]Read More
