“The talent and emotion carry this Alt Pop track. Joveth emotes the pian and loneliness on ‘Say My Name,’ and while the repetition of the chorus did carry on a beat longer than I wanted the overall track drips with feeling and passion.
Joveth is just beginning his musical journey and I look forward to seeing how high this talented artist can soar. ”
“Hanna Andréa takes a moment to express herself through song. She makes the song related to anyone who is overwhelmed by life’s demands and struggling to stay afloat. The song is a nice chilled ballad with a little frustration in the lyrics. It is about sinking or swimming when life is stressing you out. Just when you think the song is a little depressing it gives a small amount of motivation around the 2:40 mark.”
“A hard charging Alt Pop track with energy and verve. Int he most glorious of fashions, Honey Ironic delivers pure Rock and Roll angst in ‘Bite My Nails.’
The track offers a timeless sound that could with ease fit within the musical landscape any of the last three decades. Her talent sells the emotions, and the production shines in bringing the musical energy out to compliment Honey Ironic’s stellar performance.”
“Aussie Alt-Pop stare Chymes is back putting a pin her her vocal prowess with ‘Voodoo Doll.’
The track delivers a hint of danger and a whole lot of sultry to the sound. Almost like vintage Britney, Chymes has a siren like effect onlistners as she draws them in ever closer with every line. ”
“Boston native, Hannah Felisa delivers ‘Naive,’ in a an emotive and smoky tone that curls around your psyche and keeps you leaning into the emotion. The track is about the end of innocence that comes with the first true taste of independence and that realization that life on your own isn’t quite the clean break and freedom you might have thought it would be. ”
“Nadia Vaeh belts out this ode to living in the moment and taking nothing for granted. The hard guitar and her classic Rock style vocals are the earmarks of the track but ‘Rewind’ is also a deeply meaningful and personal song for Vaeh.
Written as a response to her mother’s death, Vaeh took her time to properly express the emotions and the result is a song that will resonate for many. ”
“By his own admission Born Runner is surprisingly bad at running, but lucky for all of us he can sing and entertain. ‘A long Time’ is a Indie Rock track that simply feels like the soundtrack for a fun Saturday night out on the town. ”
“The party scene can get old and is certainly filled with cliched people. This track from Gwyn Love is how many people deal with such environments. ‘high in the bathroom’ is an Alt Pop anthem for those with social anxiety or those simply sick of the same old same old. ”
“After making a splash with their hit ‘nice to know you, Alternative-Pop trio lovelytheband is back with a follow up single called ‘day run out.’
This lead song from their new album due out August 23rd delivers a nice calm sound and build. The smooth groove and vocals are easy to digest and sing along with. ”
“GAUSTAD is one of the most emotive young voices I’ve heard. ‘My Own Worst Enemy’ is pretty self-explanatory in terms of subject but the nuance and flair that GAUSTAD infuses into the performance is next level talent. Pop Music has a new rising star. Latch on now and celebrate the rise of the phenom. ”
“This track comes alive thanks to the emotion and passion of the vocal performance. Lyves described the track as personal and cathartic and that comes through in the end result. ‘REM’ is about a one sided relationship and the slow dawning of that realization and the track has a dreamscape vibe that mirrors the way our brains tend to work. ”
“Lisa Crawley deliver a sultry soundtrack to the complexities of our mind. The overall sound has an almost spaghetti western vibe that adds a mysterious air to the build. The mix of her sensual delivery and that grittier melody makes for an engaging multi-dimensional track that keeps the listener on their toes. ”
“KTJ & Carly unleash a bit of scorn on those who are all talk and no action relationship wise. ‘Mister Bare Minimum’ is about that person promising and pledging commitment and other things they have no intention of actually carrying through. The track has a nice build and the anger and frustration is palpable in the delivery.”
“Goldie channels the spirit of freedom and perseverance on ‘The Angel and The Saint.’ The track has a FLorence and the Machine vibe for sure but you can’t discount the influence Goldie’s idols Tammy Wynette and Dolly Parton had on creating her sound. There is an edge and attitude and empowerment to this track and the imagery of the video is pretty dang enjoyable as well.”
“It is always important to make a ‘Good Impression,’ but then again sometimes you just have to be yourself and let the truth land. Tamar Berk plays around with this idea with a lot of fun and energy on her latest single. The San Diego native has a throwback sound that would be right at home in the Pop landscape of the late 80’s. ”
“This guitar heavy track from Jake Kulak brings the timeless INdir Rock sound that could be from any recent decade. ‘Animals’ is the kind of song music lovers can dig in on and feel to the core. Simply a rock solid track musically, vocally, and in the lyrical build. ”
“44Phantom doesn’t mention ‘Kansas’ anymore. To find out why you will have to take this emotional journey with the Grunge influenced Alternative Rocker out of Oklahoma.
The song unfurls like a well-written short story in that you will deeply connect with the emotional plight as wella s the musical build.”
“Fake Dad is an LA based Pop Synth duo that has an Indie Rock vibe with just enough Pop Punk influence to add a razor edge to the sound.
’Crybaby’ is about the pursuit of fleeting fame and how desperate society has become to snatch their fifteen minutes. The track delivers a nice energy and spark and I can’t wait to hear more from this talented duo. ”
“Frances Whitney drizzles in some nostalgia and heartache on this track, but that is not to say ‘Still Have July’ is a melancholic trip and nothing else. The single also has an uplifting and hopeful tone that increases as the track builds.
The song works much like our brains in that it sort of processes multiples things and aspects all at once to give us a splashy Summer time vibe along with a treasure trove of emotions.”
“Jellyka is a Belgium-based producer/songwriter/musician who began his career in the early ’90. ‘Paper Game’ has some throwback vibes but manages to feel contemporary in its dark, brooding vibe. THis is one of those track that is mood dependent for me but when I want to wallow a bit this one is a perfect accompaniment.
The vimagery of the video is basic, but again fits the mood quite well.”
