The Real J Israel – Glass Half Full – EP Review What I can’t tell you about, is how things were working out when The Real J Israel was rocking within a more traditional type of Gospel music…all I can really vouch for is the path I hear he’s on now. If I had to […]Read More
Check out the latest set of live tunes released from our mighty vault of musical archives here at sleepingbagstudios & have a listen to Kerry Jayne from her set at the Rainbow Bistro in Ottawa from back in 2019 – and stick around for a flash-forward into the future with a bonus live cut from […]Read More
Simon Safhalter – One Level Deeper Than The Rest – Album Review A musical shape-shifter, he most certainly is. By Simon’s own admission on his social media pages, he’s basically creating all kinds of tunes that range from “pop, rap, punk, rock, j-rock, electronic, anime, video game and film music.” Did he leave anything out?

Pakco F. “B75571 (Wave Runner)” – Single Review Ahhhh music-scene, I tell ya…every time I think I’ve seen or heard it all, you prove that I haven’t. We rappin’ bout shoes here Pakco F.? Is that what we’re doin’ here? I get more curious than most people in my field do. When I don’t know […]Read More
Simple Stone – Through This Dark – Album Review Coming out of the gate swinging harder than hard, Australia’s own Simple Stone gets the energy racing at a fever pitch from the very first moments you’ll hear on Through This Dark with their opening track “Secrets.” Somewhere in the realm of Alt-Rock-meets-Hard-Rock with a touch […]Read More

Becoming Human – “Goodbye To When” – Single Review I remember towards the end of last year when I stumbled across this kickass solo-project from artist Jordan Barney, called Becoming Human and a single he’d released called “Scars.” Having a listen to that track was not only one of my favorite finds of last year, […]Read More
Neon Radiation – Future TV Themes – Music Review Super cool! I’ve heard many Neon Radiation tunes to this point, but this is the first experience I’ve had with the Gary Blake project going all-instrumental for the specific purpose of shoppin’ these cuts on over to the suits & ties of TV-land to see what […]Read More
Brannon – Heartbreak Is Misery – Album Review We might have a tale of two halves here… For an album called Heartbreak Is Misery, it sure starts on an uplifting track called “We Are Powerful.” If you were expecting something that resembled the kind of “Misery” something like Soul Asylum produced back in the day, […]Read More
MJ FLAWS – Me And My Friends Are Dead. – Album Review Ayyyyy…it’s MJ FLAWS! Welcome back homie. It was back in April 2020 that we first tuned into this dude’s music when he released his debut record Army Of The Brokenhearted Boys & Girls, and by summertime that year, we had him included in […]Read More
