/ 2014 Self / 6 Tracks / http://www.eluusif.com / https://www.facebook.com/Eluusif / http://soundcloud.com/eluusif Hair Like Skrillex is destined to be a single; the track never takes a breath as it takes listeners on a ride and dumps them abruptly into the next effort, Justin Bieber Is An Android. Justin Bieber Is An Android is a slower, more trance-laded effort that is able to keep the sharpness of the dubstep style while…
I Need A Man has vocals from Lael Summer that blend together equal amounts of Donna Summer and Meredith Brooks. The soul / funk groove is the perfect backdrop for Summer’s vocals which will impress with their sultry fire and impressive range. Too Much has the same laid-back approach of mid-seventies Santana or James Brown; the raw power of Summer’s vocals bubble just underneath the calm and controlled exterior that…
Drown in Blue is a track that touches upon the work of Joan Jett and The X-Ray Spex. The track needs little more than guitars, drums, and a sizzling set of vocals. The bounce between front-forward rock and hooky pop-laced rock makes this into a must-listen. With this high amount of energy, Mase is able to move to the titular effort, Half-Life. Half-Life has a slower and more electronic-infused approach.…

he third album from Canadian composer Christopher Bissonnette sees him expanding his palette by narrowing his sound sources to a self built analog synthesiser. Eschewing the whiplash and/or everything including the kitchen sink style of assembly so common among current analog aficionados, Bissonnette instead applies his signature compositional style of using long held tones and sweeping drones that alternate between, and fuse, pure tonal transcendence and patient, sparkling melodies that…

We have not reviewed many web series because the quality of the average show is so spotty. The Louise Log is a show that relies on the situational comedy of Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Each clip (we are reviewing “How To Get What You Want”, Episode #36) allows for a further expansion of the motivations and desires of the main characters while allowing the humor to shine through early…
What’s your story? “Well, I have been performing in covers and originals bands professionally since I was about 17 and have always loved singing, playing guitar and writing songs. But even though I knew it was my passion, the practical realist in me would tend to create self-sabotage. I would say to myself, I know you love this but you have to be practical, seriously, it’s competitive and these days…

Miss Lola Overture provides a solid introduction to the Presidential LoveFest EP, allowing listeners in less than a minute to understand where The Van Burens will ultimately go with this release. Tricky Dick will provide listeners with some background about Richard Nixon’s illegal activities (the break-in at the Watergate Hotel). The track builds off of the sounds and styles of the sixties and seventies, blending together rock and funk…
Stevens Point has an absolutely dark and evil beer on their hands. A pour will yield little (maybe even nothing) in the way of a head, while the effervescence of the beer disappears for much of the pour. The beer has a good amount of malt on the onset, while a velvety sweetness comes up shortly after that. While the beer has an ABV that is absolutely on-par for other…

When it comes to CARBON AIRWAYS (Engus and Eleonore Fernese), it can be said it’s been a dream journey, a great trip and already quite a long career (three years) for a group so young within a musical sphere that was not prepared for them. Now, the brother and sister duo who hail from France will release their U.S. debut EP Black Sun (Cherrytree Records) on March 28. Already available…
