While He Reminds Me Of You, the latest single from The High Plains Drifters will immediately draw listeners in through an EDM-infused opening, the effort showcvase a refresh and revolutionary take on multiple music genres. While there’s decidedly a nod to late-nineties pop music in the initial section, The High Plains Drifters switch back to a more early-1980s style (eg Boston, STYX) for the remainder of the track. With nods…
The Sound Of Monday’s “Keeper Of The Mood” links together the lounge music of the 1960s with the pop-rock of late-nineties acts.

She’s No Doll, She’s a Woman is the latest single from Marshall Oakman. On this effort (and video), Oakman is able to draw back on 1990s alternative rock. With bright, vibrant vocals and fuzzy guitars representing the backbone for the song, it’s the haunting percussive elements that provide the most depth.

On far, Rob Eberle is able to make large strides from his previous efforts. The tremendous emotion that impacts listeners from the onset of this cut is substantial. Perhaps most fascinating to us has to be Eberle’s abiliy to ensnare listeners with little more than his voice. Gradually incorporating instrumentation into far, Rob will keep listeners firmly on the edges of their seats. There’s nods to pop and electronic here;…

On Shower Thoughts, Tamas Bulla is able to impart a tremendous amount of heartfelt emotion into the mix. There’s nods to Shawn Mendes, Justin Bieber and Lorde that are discernible here, but the beauty of Bulla’s song is how much he is able to impart himself into the pop tradition. The overall instrumentation is fairly austere, providing just enough of a backdrop to Bulla’s vocals to push each into an…
Angela Moss Poole’s “Speak To The Mountain” is a powerful effort that will resound with listeners long after the song ceases playing. There’s a supreme confidence present with each lyric laid down by Poole, while the funky backdrop of the single’s instrumentation remains reverant of the greater corpus of gospel music. The production present on Speak To The Mountain gives both Poole’s voice and the arrangement ample time to shine…

What results is something that both amps up…
Pale Blue Dot begins with Don’t Turn Me Away, a hopeful effort that ties together the singer-songwriter style of the 1970s with a modern, alternative rock sort of approach. Dead All Day immediately will impress through intricate guitar lines and an emotive bass that bubbles up to a prominent role.

My older brother Greg was always in bands so it seemed inevitable that…

While New Belgium’s latest season is undoubtedly assertive enough to keep imbibers warm…
We have received quite a number of different protein and other health-related bars over the course of our five or six years for the health and fitness section at NeuFutur.

Bobo’s Oat Bbars looks to take a different tack, providing…
