Jared Minnix - Slow Down [Review] April 03, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music, Singer/Songwriter, Indie Pop Rating: 4 out of 5 “Quarantine submissions have been flooding my inbox and most fail to capture the true thoughts and feelings, but Jared Minnix has written one that truly captures the vibe of these troubling times. Soft Pop vocals and a calm, yet energetic melody back these lyrics which feel true and genuine. No one can predict what’s coming next, but perhaps Minnix has created the soundtrack for these odd days where time has very little meaning.” — Travis Erwin (LA on Lock Blogger)
Peri El - Slow Down [Review] January 31, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music, Jazz, Singer/Songwriter, Commercial Rating: 4 out of 5 “This track is all about the vocals. Peri El does a masterful job with pace and tempo and allowing the emotion to develop. There are moments of power and wonder, but the track is strongest for me in its quieter moments. Toeing a line between a classic Adult Contemporary sound, and a more Commercial/Jazz vibe, the track changes when it hits the bridge. That interlude is brief, but works very well to give a unique spin on the track and keep the piece feeling solidly contemporary.” — Travis Erwin (LA on Lock Blogger)
