Pia Dean - Gone feat Scarlet Cox (EDM Remix) review
The EDM Remix of Pia Dean's "Gone", featuring Scarlet Cox, is a beefy, well sculpted dance statement of the morose-, contemplative character. One of those songs that openly aim to get you through an ex (or two), only, not metaphorically.
The smartly sculpted intro generates sufficient amount of excitement as to be able to introduce the main theme with efficient elegance. The pulsation is stable, and not in any particular hurry to deviate from the gravitational pull of the central groove and the base harmonies. The visited sonic domains are doubtless familiar, yet reign timeless with their charms, and are both quick and gentle in their willingness to showcase their full value anatomy.
The sample selection reflects a deep-, well-founded appreciation for the ear-candies of the '90s, - which many hold as a mythic time for dance music - while the cherry on top, fortunately, is Scarlet Cox's first-class singing, as the performer in question exhibits a superb command of her pipes as they are about to reflect on a relationship in which damage was both absorbed and administered. If it never hurts, then you either have no ego, or, your ex is doing it wrong.
A safe recommendation if you are looking for music that seeks to put you into the popularly acceptable chill mood, yet it doubtless stimulates receptors with eloquent singing.

Herman Martinez - Solopsi Radio review
Year : 2015
Genre : Post Rock with Massively Dark Psychedelia and Sludge/Doom affections
Label : Independent
Origin : United States
Official site: > - here - <
Herman Martinez's Solopsi Radio is the doubtless undeniable result of a creative process that has spawned throughout 18 months, all aimed at the production of a bulk of material that convey the hallmarks of Martinez's musical vision along the combined criterias of precision and authenticity.
Solopsi Radio is a super-thorough medley of sonic stares into the nietzsche-ian abyss, as carefully arranged auditory discord-, and the constant challenge declared towards the riskless conventions of harmony and emotional comfort, are all on relentless and resourceful display herein.
Seldom are the times when the cover of an album AND the sounds arranged into said spin are in a perfect symbiosis of reiforcement with each other, and such is the case herein. Once you witness a deliberately AND convincingly sociopathic facial expression on an album cover, you are free to assume that you are either in for a treat you won't likely want to forget OR remember. The album cover photo is an irrefutable invitation: "Come find out, if you think you have balls."
Luckily enough, Martinez's music is both rich and meticulously sculpted enough to convince one on spot that the facial expression on the cover is not "just" an efficient method of invitation, but, in fact, you will get exactly what is promised, only more of it AND more colorful of it than you have hoped for.

Underlined Passages - The Fantastic Quest review
Year : 2015
Genre : Soft Rock with a superb harmony fetisch
Label : Mint 400 Records
Origin : United States
Official site: > - here - <
Baltimore based Underlined Passages is a group composed of individuals willing and able to render their respective creative potentials to that of premiere Underlined Passages frontman and mastermind Michael Nestor.
Nestor been instinctively studying and mastering the mere ethos of harmony the very day Stephen Hawking started to invent time itself, and this very notion is not one to take lightly, nor with any promise of a grain of salt. This spin is action-packed with an extremely keen sense of chordal passages that reflect not only excessive competence-levels at coming up with interesting harmonies, but, even better: the whole album is a luscious love letter to intricatly sculpted chordal domains, while the sung melodies on top are mere compliments rendered to them.
The resultant mixture is a highly optimal configuration of music, that works pretty much perfectly, and especially so if your ears still remember how to hear. If you ever wondered about this question, then the answer probably is "sorry: no, but do come again!", but, this is the perfect album to make sure. Read on to know more.

Nick Driver - Baby Come Back To Me track review
Year : 2016
Genre : Acoustic Original, Folk
Label : Independent
Origin : United States
Where to check the song out: > - here - <
Throughout his massively acoustic romantic statement called "Baby Come Back To Me", North Carolina-based Nick Driver is riding on beefy-, well sculpted acoustics that seek to summon the optimally stone-traditional charms and affections timelessly contained in-and-through acoustic silence molestation.
The reason Nick Driver's overall output works quite well, is none other than a solid and competent command and understanding of his vocal capabilities, a creative asset he uses to deliver soulful renditions of casual romantic sit reps that are quite easy to relate to, provided you have a heart that is showing any willigness to beat yet.
Playful and cautiously introverted, Driver's creative rhetorics is fueled more of an urge to approach relationhips on an intellectual and emotional basis, yet he does not refrain to offer a mere glimpse or two - and never more - towards the tactile. This willingness is always enough to keep you on your toes, and it similarly is sufficient to render a sense of safety. You just know that this isn't going to be sexist. Driver consciously stays away from Justin Bieber's territory, on which sensuality becomes a larger than life comic book parody of its own ethos - but this is the reason Bieber works, regardless of the flame he receives in the process. Nick Driver's musical vision, as a massively acoustic artist, is both mature and competent, and it is best to let the body of work sing/speak for itself. If you consider yourself an aficionado of said genre, then this is a performer you want to devote your attention to.
