Hotel Carcass is the first track on Who’s Listening to Van Gogh’s Ear, the debut album from Jack of None. The track has the dark emotion of The Cure, hints of twee-pop, and bits and bobs of electronic, ambient, and jazz stylings. The sheer depth of this initial composition ensures that listeners will be on the edges of their seats, having no idea where Jack of None will ultimately take them.
of Montreal create a track that looks back to Emotional Rescue-era Rolling Stones, linking the sound with hints of Franz Ferdinand and Momus. The twinkling instrumentation, shuffling beat, and echo is used to great impact.
Jonah Cruzz creates a street-smart, intricate style of rap that builds off of the work of Big K.R.I.T., Kendrick Lamar and Lil’ Wayne. The blend of haunting strings and speedy delivery make this into a perfect smoking song.
A motivational speaker can add something to all sorts of events, whether it’s a graduation ball, a sporting awards evening or some kind of corporate event – but the place that they really come into their own is at events targeted towards employees or colleagues in your business.
DownTown Mystic released their latest release Rock’n’Roll Romantic in late July of 2016. The album begins with Dead End Space, a mid-tempo rock track that builds off of the framework of Warren Zevon while incorporating hints of the Black Crowes, The Eagles, and Foo Fighters. A sizzling guitar line ensures that listeners will eagerly anticipate the rest of the album. Turn Around and Go has a bluesier, more bayou-ified sound that…
Today, we are speaking with New York City’s Maddy Ruff. How did you get into music? I don’t think I really “got into music”. Music has always been a part of my life. My mother was performing 8 shows a week on Broadway in Les Mis up until month 6 of her pregnancy with me! There was no choice to be made, it was something that was already a part…
S.S.P.M’s Sunshine is a powerful track that showcases a major issue with life today. When there are so many incidents leading to deaths of innocents, things need to change. S.S.P.M is able to make a plea to put down the guns and find different ways to deal with conflict. The track itself is a hard-hitting rap track with a production that is styled on the Atlanta and Memphis scenes of the…
Hollow is the first track on New York City-native Maddy Ruff’s latest release, Over It. A down and dirty funk groove and vibrant set of vocals inspires listeners to focus on It’s Alright With Me. The shuffling, instrument-heavy opening to It’s Alright With Me provides proper highlighting of Ruff’s vocals. The effort spins out to a mid-1970s Motown meets modern jazz sound. The smoky production of the track allows these wide-reaching…
Sidelines immediately draws listeners in with a powerful two-part harmony. This smooth sound is further fleshed out with a robust instrumentation, making for an introductory effort that will immediately draw listeners in. Back To You is a slower effort that showcases a different side to The Ormewoods; this more tender track allows for The Ormewoods to build something emotionally effecting. Linking together modern country music with hints of pop and rock…
Hello, Simon. What’s happening musically in Perth in July? It is cold and wet this time of year so things slow down a little bit. The weather in Perth is beautiful for most of the year and there is lots of outdoor gigs and festivals but the flip side is that people don’t tend to go out as much during winter.
The titular track on the Vomit EP showcases a sharp-tongued, intense rap style that takes an equal amount of early Eminem, Brotha Lynch Hung, and Tech N9ne. Using a sort of Spartan production for this introductory track, what Whorrifick does is force listeners to mull over and chew upon each bar. The focus on lyrical content is a bold move – it means that each line has to be flawless –…
Theft of the Sky is a slinky rock track that links together the electro-pop of acts like INXS with bits of 1990s acts like Stabbing Westward and Savage Garden. By making something old and frayed new and alluring, what Texture & Light do on their Inner Space Odyssey is immediately impacting and appeasing to a wide swath of fans. Pictures to Burn builds upon the same electro-infused style to make something hauntingly…
Over the course of the last few years, we’ve had the chance to review a number of Destihl’s offering. However, I believe that Destihl has outdone themselves with their Tripel, a 11% effort that is able to go down easy while possessing considerable depth to the flavors that one will experience within each 500 mL bottle. There are hints of Belgian yeast dryness, sweetness, and bits of citrus fruit flavors…
Steven Lamar was one of the individuals on the ground floor when the Beats By Dre headphones were changing the world, and he has lent his influence to a new product, the Roam Ropes Wireless Headphones. We are pleased to report that the Roam Ropes are well worth their $199 list price. The economics of the earbuds are considerable meaning that there is a great fit in an individual’s ears…
Just because you’re a mother certainly doesn’t mean that you can’t pursue a college degree, whether you’re planning on going back to school after already having received your bachelor’s degree years ago, or you’re planning on going to college for the first time since graduating high school. But balancing your role as a mother and as a student can be difficult because each of these roles requires a lot of…

Everpresent’s Hyponotic is a track that skillfully blends electronic and pop music styles from the 1980s, 1990s, and more contemporary sounds. This means that this introductory track is able to call forth comparisons to INXS, Peter Gabriel, Savage Garden and Linkin Park all in the space of three minutes. Dreamscape is a refreshing of the mid-1990s Pet Shop BOys and drum n bass styles into something brilliant; the strong female…
Bankewitz creates a track so infectious with his latest, Push it. Shake it. Feel it., that fans will be singing the hook through autumn. The momentum that is accumulated here keeps listeners on the dance floor. Bankewitz’s output works well in EDM and pop genres; the instrumental/vocal dichotomy established here pushes each side to an entirely higher plateau.
