INFINIZHEN – “Generative Lucid Dreams” (Road Ramos Mix) / “You Can’t Be Trusted” – Singles Review Sometimes it’s the littlest things that tend to catch your attention… Not to minimize the BIG SOUND that you’ll find from INFINIZHEN, which is quite compelling all around, but it was actually the tiniest hashtag that first piqued my […]Read More

Becoming Human – “Ease The Pain”

Becoming Human – “Ease The Pain” – Single Review I always welcome the opportunity to jump back into the world of Becoming Human, and metaphorically-speaking, what better time to do that than when returning from vacation?  I had the opportunity to check the latest single out a few times before I left, and I’ve already […]Read More
