“Tosh.0” writer Mike Pomranz introduces the “One-Finger Single” with World Blanket’s latest.

By day, Brooklyn’s Mike Pomranz is a comedy writer who blogs for the “Tosh.0” program on Comedy Central, so it’s not surprising that he would find the humor in his work as a songwriter as well. “I want this band to bridge the gap between Nirvana and Electric Light Orchestra,” Pomranz has said.

Lazerbeak premieres video for “Lift Every Voice” which is off of his most recent instrumental disc LAVA BANGERS. He describes the song by saying, “this track is probably my favorite one on the album. It’s one of the only beats I’ve ever made that no one was ever able to write a song to, it just felt like it could stand on its own without any rapping. For that reason…

Dynasty Warriors Next (Playstation Vita)

I believe that the Dynasty Warriors series has been one of the most successful in video gaming history because it takes little time to learn and bundles a tremendous amount of martial history in each level. Dynasty Warriors Next is the latest iteration in the Dynasty Warriors franchise, and it is also the first DW game that has been released for the Playstation Vita. I believe that the transfer over…

Our Version of Events — the debut album from Capitol Records’ artist Emeli Sandé — debuted on the UK Album Chart at No. 1 this week. Due for release in the U.S. on June 5th, Our Version of Events is a powerful platform for Sandé’s rich, soulful voice and sophisticated songwriting. As Q magazine put it: “She’s made an album that deserves to linger in the limelight — passionate, powerful,…

Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympics (Nintendo 3DS) Review

Few games have taken full advantage of the Nintendo 3DS console. There seems to be a desire for companies to cut corners and use only the lowest amounts of the console’s power; Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympics, on the other hand, pushes the console to its limits. I believe that the 3DS version of Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympics is also special because it…

The Duke Spirit – Bruiser (CD) Review

I believe that it has taken The Duke Spirit a few years to get a proper amount of traction. This is not to say that their previous albums have been weak, but that Bruiser represents a coherent effort that exemplifies what the band is and what they want to do on their releases. Cherry Tree is the opening effort on Bruiser, and its blend of Blues and rock will appease…

Kevin Kern – Enchanted Piano (CD)

Pastel Reflections is a delicate track that immediately invites listeners in to Kern’s inimitable style. With each composition building with craftsman-like precision, listeners will be touched. There needs to be nothing more than Kern’s piano to create a richness of sound that emanates through rooms. Kern’s greatest strength on Enchanted Piano is in the arrangements. Each of the album’s cuts works well as an isolated track, but they provide ample…
