Natalise’s vocals soar brightly over this introductory track, acting as a glue that unites the guitars, drums, and bass. With an unfettered success out of the gate, Natalise + The Sunset Run move into their Love Unconditional. Love Unconditional slows things down for a brief moment.…

Mark Reitenga’s Unsung begins with The Detroit Blues, an effort that blends a close and cozy sound with a set of vocals that pull from Paul Simon and Dave Matthews. There is a timeless sound to this introductory track, richly playing upon the titular genre and a bit of folk. The track is able to immerse listeners into the unique sound of Reitenga in the space of 2:30.

Race To Neptune – Oh Contraire

Wanderlilly is the first track off of Fort Collins act Race To Neptune’s Oh Contraire. The track is a bold statement, creating something wholly unique in an era of musical conformity. Passionate vocals, a ropy bass line, and a frantic pace ensure that listeners are firmly planted at the edges of their seats.

Daphne Willis – Freaks Like Me

Daphne Willis begins her Freaks Like Me with a soulfully-sang effort that draws upon influences as wide as Nancy Sinatra and Elle King. A plinking piano and walking bass line make for an engrossing introduction to Freaks Like Me. Out Of The Black is a high-energy, electronic-based song in the vein of La Roux or Meghan Trainor. The bass is again a prominent effort, giving a funky infusion to a track that…

Jason Andrew Brown – Self Titled

Jason Andrew Brown is able to create a sort of pop-country that will have listeners singing along after the disc’s first spin. During Shine Sun Shine, funk, surf rock, and a charismatic set of countrified vocals tattoo their melodies deep into the minds and hearts of listeners. Emptiness is Forever is an effort that anyone that has lost a loved one will be able to understand. During this single, Brown’s…

Morningblind is a duo that is comprised of Richard Hayden and Sandra Bossy Retti. The EP begins with The Spring, a track that immediately showcases the dynamic between the two. There is a rich narrative that is weaved through this introductory effort, with all of the passion and emotion of a play. The track is hard to categorize; the guitar work draws on a classical style while Sandra’s vocals build…

Many Mountains – Lost in Love EP Review

Many Mountains is a triad of performers from Colorado; their Lost in Love is an engrossing EP, conveying more over the course of four songs than many bands can hope to impart upon their fans in 10. I feel that this is due to the engrossing instrumentation, the ability for each member of the band to shine alone or together, and a sound that is wholly unique while able to…

Pixelfox – Journey Room

Up and coming artist Pixelfox has really struck a chord, no pun intended, with his latest release “Journey Room”. The album is deep and melodic reminding listeners of 80’s pop with a modern flair. Compelling rhythm and solid production makes the album interesting and worth playing again and again. This is a very strong release for a debut album of such a young artist. The album itself is deep and…

Guy Clark – The Best of the Dualtone Years (CD)

I think we can collectively agree that 2016 was a fucking brutal year to be a music fan. The grim reaper took Prince, David Bowie, Leon Russell, Leonard Cohen, George Michael and Merle Haggard. It also took Guy Clark from us, one of the best songwriters of his generation and a wildly influential Americana-artist, a precursor to everyone from Todd Snider to Wilco and the Old 97s.

The single “I Am Love” by Montrell of 47radar is a soulful song about love in its truest form. Montrell’s voice is stirring and fervent, it perfectly complements the track allowing the sensual yet loving vibe to capture the listener.

Colin Onderdonk – Proximity Effect

18 year old Dallas, Texas native Colin Onderdonk’s debut album Proximity Effect has to be the single best album that I have heard in the Christian rock genre this year. His voice is powerful and projects his love for Christ while his talent is something that any fan of music can appreciate. Each song from the album is philosophical and extremely thought provoking.

Ipapaya (Full Sail Brewing)

There has been a shift over the course of the last few years regarding the flavor profile that is most desired when it comes to an India Pale Ale. In the late nineties and into the oughts, the dominant flavors one could taste included piney and citrus elements, with enough in the way of bitter to act as a refresher. In the course of the last few years, breweries have…

Soles Of Passion “Turned It All Around”

Soles Of Passion’s “Turned It All Around” is a musically intense track that is interspersed with Trump sound bites. The track is able to tie together psychedelic, alternative, and progressive rock. We are big fans of the dichotomy established between the softer, dreamier vocals and the punctual, on point drums, bass, and guitars that create the backdrop for the act.

Cara-Mel – Racial Profile

Cara-Mel’s current mixtape, Racial Profile, begins with Music Diary. This track is hard-hitting, with a particularly evil sounding backing beat setting the stage for the rest of the release. Cara-Mel is able to tie together influences including Lil Kim, T.I., and MC Lyte. The repetition used for the chorus ensures that listeners will be sitting on the edges of their seats.

AV Super Sunshine – Spider Wedding

AV Super Sunshine’s Spider Wedding is a progressive rock track in the vein of Jethro Tull or Pendragon. The band intelligently uses silence to provide considerable highlighting to the contemplative arrangements and rich vocals interspersed here. I see Spider Wedding as a track in the mold of a massive high fantasy tome. The guitar that rises and falls during this single adds an additional level of depth to an already-heady…

Tasha Michelle’s Letter of Appreciation is a powerful single in the R&B and gospel traditions. This unique single effortlessly adopts bits and bobs of myriad styles. We were impressed with the vocal range of Tasha Michelle; the twin sides of vocals and instrumentation can be enjoyed separately or together. There is just so much that is bubbling under the surface of Letter of Appreciation, ensuring that listeners will have to delve…
