Alvvays’ “Dreams Tonite” is a dreamy, trippy sort of track that blends together the synthpop of The Waitresses with the female-led pop of the 1970s. A bit of the synthwave sound blends in with an earler, almost psychedelic sort of sound. Alvvays come out with a wholly unique sound during their Dreams Tonight; the vocals and instrumentation take turns switching back and forth between narrative and harmony duties. I feel that…
Mba Shakoor’s “Our DJ Love and Remembrance” is a heartfelt song in the vein of classics like Master P’s I Miss My Homies or Wiz Khalifa’s See You Again. Mba Shakoor’s vocal style has hints of I-20, Mystikal, and the aforementioned Master P. There is a bit of grit that works well alongside the smoothed-out and chorus infused backdrop for the single. For anyone that has ever lost someone, Love…
DuShane Band’s “Alabama Rain” is a track that speaks well to the 1990s and 2000s style of country while having all the larger than life sounds of the current wave of country artists.

The Gore Boyz’ “Kisses For The Road” will immediately draw listeners in with a bouncy backing beat. The three-part vocals that issue forth are a refreshed version of boy bands like The Jackson 5. Heavenly vocals, a bit of swagger, and a downright rosy sound to the composition make it easy for the Kisses For The Road single to bounce around listeners’ minds for months afterwards. Each part of The…
Harp Samuels’ “Fire” is a beautiful song. Dreamy vocals and a folk-infused style create a very close and cozy sound for listeners. The presence of clapping further brings fans into a mind set that Samuels is performing in a coffee shop or other intimate place. As the track gradually increases in volume and tempo, fans will become converts to the Samuels cause. Secrets is a much slower track than Fire,…
Ben Lorentzen’s “Lay Down In The Dark” is an expansive indie track that builds off of the work of The Tea Party and Muse. The thoughtful instrumentation is reminiscent of performers like Pulp and The Verve Pipe. The tight production present at the three-minute mark makes this effort feel as if it would be a James Bond theme. There is an epic sound to Lay Down In The Dark that…
The NaveBlues’ “Sitting On Top Of The World” is a powerful, impassioned take on the Doc Watson classic. Little more is needed during this performance than a set of vocals and a piano. Together, these two elements combine to make something tremendously effecting. When the harmonica enters into the fray, everything is ratcheted up to ten. The ferocity and emotional content of the track is impressive – all parts here…

The Dice’s “Streetlights” is a power-punk track that calls forth comparisons to MxPx, Mest, and Good Charlotte. Hard-hitting drums, a chorus that will have listeners singing along, and a punchy set of guitars make Streetlights tremendously catchy. The vocals are able to bring on hints of Matchbox 20 and Fuel into the mix; The Dice are able to make something new and fresh while drawing to a good degree on…
Brian Mackey’s “Underwater” is a tremendously honest and effecting track that needs little more than Brian’s vocals and hints of piano and a guitar. Taken together, these elements make for an effort that can be appreciated by anyone that has held out unrequited love. The gradual increase in the single’s tempo allows for a more full sound to take over; the rising and falling action of this single is nothing…
What Sonic Radiation does on his latest track Dyon is immediately get listeners out on the dance floor. The track is able to tell a pretty deep and detailed story without needing anything in the way of vocals. While there are a number of distinct things that are occurring at each and every second of the track, Sonic Radiation is able to corral every disparate sound into a complex and ultimately…

Whether it’s a home renovation or a commercial project, sometimes you’re left to wonder which is better, DIY or hiring a professional? You can read reviews in household project forums, or spend a lot of time searching and comparing companies and getting quotes. But sometimes, it all boils down to simple reasoning and weighing your options, budget, and expectations. Every so often we want to freshen up and change…
Tritonal’s Good Thing is a nice laid-back sort of track. Laurell’s vocals establish a hopeful sound that has just a hint of weariness to it. It is this reality that adds a further level of complexity to the track; while Laurell is confident that she will be a good thing, there is always a sense at the periphery that she (or her significant other) will not ultimately match up. Tritonal’s…
Here at NeuFutur, we typically focus on the musical side of things. I feel that this may be a bit shortsighted when there is an interesting video that is crafted alongside a stand-out song, and that is precisely what we see with Airy Jeanine’s animated video for Everywhere. The video showcases an approximation of Airy performing on a stage with a number of distinct movements and sweeping crowd shorts. The…
Barry Rock’s “Closer” is an effort that calls back to the pop and rock style of the late 1970s and early 1980s. Hints of Billy Joel and Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes can be heard during this track. Bits of guitars blend with a sizzling bit of horns. The back and forth feels like a couple talking. The heavenly vocals of Rock during Closer are sedate and tell a tremendous…

With a bit of gristle and growl, Mummy Dance is a track that will interest a wide array of listeners. Heavenly vocals represent the middle point for Mummy Dance, establishing that the second part of the single will be considerably different…
SOiL’s Gimme Some Lovin’ is a fun rock track that mixes up current hard rock with the sludgy bar rock of Thin Lizzy and early AC/DC. A strong, assertive set of vocals is matched with an equally-pointed female set of vocals. The back and forth dynamic pushes the guitar/drum sound to an entirely higher plateau. A chugging guitar line and splashy drums ride the track to its conclusion. SoiL is…
