Reviewing Reaffinity's Album - Tether

Tether, the debut album from Pittsburgh-based artist Reaffinity, is a beautifully crafted release that incorporates a unique blend of styles. At 7 tracks long, this album takes you on quite the wild ride and leaves you wanting more. The first song on the album is the perfect opening, “Stake” is dominated by some incredible guitar riffs providing a perfect soundcape, while it is short lived its impact can be felt.

Although the album is primarily in the alt-rock world, Reaffinity shines here by blending elements of hard rock, indie rock, post-punk, shoegaze, and more. The creatively crafted sound delivers a hypnotic energy that keeps you engaged from one song to the next. It’s always refreshing to hear a release that feels this full, while at the same time new.

The second song on the album is self-titled “Tether”, the lyrics are introspective and thought-provoking, and they perfectly capture the feeling of being lost and searching for connection.

Reaffinity isn’t just throwing sounds together; he’s crafting an identity. The layers of textures, irresistible hooks, and heartfelt vocals showcase an artist who’s not afraid to experiment and evolve. It’s evident that a lot of hardwork and talent went into every note of “Tether.

Get Ready To Be Blown Away 'Cascadia' By Vanstones

Before I could say ‘jack’ I caught myself enjoying the sweet melodies of “Of Course I Can” which happens to be the first song on the 8-titled song album “Cascadia” by Vanstones. The first song off the album reassures music lovers that the album is going to be a one-of-a-kind.

A collection of heartwarming vocal harmonies, comforting acoustic melodies, spirited rhythms, and electrifying guitar crescendos beckons within this musical masterpiece. The Trio perfectly blends different genres you can hear elements of folk, folklore, country music, Americana, and also some modern-day music.

I was actually hooked on the 5th song, as I like upbeat songs, “Rainbow Valley” is a song that you would enjoy if you also like upbeat songs, but don’t be deceived by the beat, because the next song has more in stock.

In my opinion, I think “Better Days” has some elements of Afrotunes, but that is not the only fun fact, it also some a great storyline that glues you to your listening set and you might play it over and over again without realizing it.

“It was either fate or luck that brought us together but either way, it’s been amazing,” said Schultz. “Most of these songs were written during the pandemic” he adds. “The album captures our emotional experiences at the time, as well as the pure joy and connection we felt making music with each other. That joy is really what we want to share with the world.”

With this said, it makes so much sense, that the album came out this good. This is an album I would recommend to any music lover, these songs can be enjoyed by people from all walks of life and doesn’t have any age barrier

The 8 songs span over 25 minutes and 2 seconds, and the sad part is the album has an end. One fact that cannot be overlooked throughout the album is the lyricism and sync between the band, you can they put in a lot of time and efforts into this, because creating as masterpiece as these takes more than just luck

Album Review: "15913" by NerdhappyAlbum Review: "15913" by Nerdhappy

Today, let’s dive into the cool vibes of Nerdhappy’s new album, “15913.” You might know Nerdhappy as Brian WF Tobin, the guy who creates his own songs from scratch. He’s come a long way, especially in learning how to make music sound awesome. And guess what? His latest album is like a showcase of all that hard work paying off.

This album is a collection of 8 songs that take you on a musical adventure for about 37 minutes. The first song, “Be Yourself, Tamiko,” is like an exciting start to this journey. It’s about a girl who does something pretty magical – she calls a Japanese Sea God to splash water on her friend who wasn’t nice. And guess who’s there too? ‘Hatsune Miku’ – adding some extra magic to the music.

Originally, Nerdhappy wanted to make songs that had a steady beat, but things got a bit crazy along the way. Each song tells a story from Nerdhappy’s mind. Some are short, like “Bop,” which is just 2 minutes and 14 seconds long, and some are longer, like “Bee,” which lasts for 8 minutes. But each one is like a little peek into what Nerdhappy is thinking.

Now, you might wonder about the album’s name, “15913.” Well, it’s like a secret code for making cool beats on a drum machine. It means hitting the drum on beats 1, 5, 9, and 13. Originally, Nerdhappy just wanted to make songs that make you want to dance, but somehow, a bit of weirdness found its way into every song. And you know what? It’s what makes them so interesting.

If you listen to “15913,” you’ll feel like you’re hanging out in Nerdhappy’s creative space. Each song is like a different color on his musical palette. Some are catchy, some are dreamy, and some are just plain fun. The album shows how Nerdhappy has grown from writing songs to crafting a whole musical experience.

So, if you’re into music that’s a mix of cool stories and groovy beats, give “15913” a listen. Nerdhappy’s done a great job of making an album that’s both easygoing and exciting. It’s like a journey into his musical world, and you’re invited!

Anjalts’ “Code Blue”: A Haunting Swan Song for Our Tech-Saturated Age

Anjalts' "Code Blue": A Haunting Swan Song for Our Tech-Saturated Age
Anjalts' "Code Blue": A Haunting Swan Song for Our Tech-Saturated Age

Anjalts’ “Code Blue” feels like a dreamy blend of electro-pop, chillwave, and dream pop draped over a trellis of solid instrumental fundamentals that I’ve come to appreciate from a rising artist. With galaxies of synth, pulsing beats, and a heavy gothic undercurrent reminiscent of Siouxsie And The Banshees, “Code Blue” is a haunting swan song for our tech-saturated age.

Navigating a crowded music scene can be somewhat like ruthlessly throwing darts in the hopes one might hit the target. Anjalts takes a disparate approach, soaring over genres and era-specific sounds in her uniquely formulated work. The songstress can be situated somewhere in the complex interplay between the new-wave nostalgia of Tame Impala and The Weeknd, while subtly retaining her distinct identity.

Entering the scene from her 15-song album project “Air to Fire”; Anjalts successfully hones her blend of synthesized soundscapes and emotionally vocal performances, creating an auditory experience that is uniquely Anjalts. She’s not trying to reinvent the pop wheel, but rather, finds her vibe in the explorative, layered soundscape that strikes first, the heart, and then, the intellect.

The crux of “Code Blue” can be best decoded within the heartrending, intuitive lyrics. Anjalts bravely delves into the turbulent waters of the modern human condition – examining the impact and aftermath of cyberbullying on today’s youth. She rings an emergency bell, drawing inspiration from the very signal used in hospitals during a crisis: Code Blue. It’s think-piece-pop, a genre bubbling into the underbelly of the mainstream for its fearless critique of social constructs.

Anjalts' "Code Blue": A Haunting Swan Song for Our Tech-Saturated Age
Anjalts’ “Code Blue”: A Haunting Swan Song for Our Tech-Saturated Age

Yet, it isn’t just the powerful narrative that takes the limelight in “Code Blue.” There’s something nostalgic about Anjalts’ approach—you find yourself hearkening back to the early 2000s electropop wave but with robust use of contemporary production techniques. Her vocals vacillate appropriately between the ethereal to the grounded, commanding authority over the contrasting instrumentals—an excellent embodiment of dynamic female artistry.

“Code Blue’s” place in the canon of growing artists can’t be overstated. While some artists play it safe, staying within the confines of popular aesthetics, Anjalts curates a brave new sonic landscape. Implicitly, she implores us to consider the unbalanced relationship between technology and the emerging reality.
The beauty of “Code Blue” comes from its ability to find tranquillity amidst the chaos, to find the melody amidst the noise. From the US-based artist, we expect to see more captivating stories untold, and more genres yet unexplored.

Emotionally resonant yet compositionally complex, “Code Blue” is undoubtedly the kind of track that leaves an indelible impact on its listener—truly a testament to the power of a well-crafted song. If this is a testament to Anjalts’ future musical output, we’re in for a markedly profound era of pop culture.

In the darkened corners of the indie music scene, Forgotten Garden is blooming resoundingly with their latest offering, “Francesca.” Bridging a keen sense of isolated yearning and mental exploration with raw musicianship, they weave poignant whispers of Lana Del Rey with the shadowy echoes of The Cure, resonating a sonorous shmaltz of both past eras and the present indie landscape that is indescribably alluring.

From the outset, Francesca’s tale is one of haunting poignancy. Fogged by duty and sequestered from her vibrant past, her story serves as a chilling reflection of isolation. Laden with overwhelming psychological implications, “your fading beauty feeds your mind’s disease,” the words unflinchingly capture the essence of a life unraveling, ever-so subtly heightening the stakes of this emotional plunge.

Inês Rebelo’s vocals are undeniably the star in this darkened pantomime. Her voice flits and flickers like spectral candlelight, luminescent against the dense crypt of melancholy woven through the texture of this song. It is a haunting, ethereal performance, not unlike the spectral influences of Florence Welch, Chelsea Wolfe and Warpaint, that spins an alluring web of palpable longing and shrouded regret.

Furthermore, Danny Elliott’s lush guitar strums and synth sketches play pivotal roles in this harmonious intertwining. Acting as the tonal ribbing, their contribution is critical, winding around Inês’s vocals and the pulsating beat in an entrancing symbiosis. Substantiating the dark indie aesthetic, Matt Snowden’s drum hits echo with a Tom-tom richness, underlined by Mel D’s energetic bassline, balancing raw rhythmic force with an intimate intimacy.

As ephemerally captivating as the mix by Inês Rebelo can be, the masterful touch of Jimistudios helps the track transcend. The melange of gothic themes and indie sensibilities becomes a dreamy sort of dirge. Produced by the duo of Inês Rebelo and Danny Elliott, “Francesca” beautifully encapsulates the intended acoustic melancholia and the electrifying jolts of their unique brand of indie music.

Descendants of old-school dark lords of gothic music, Forgotten Garden, despite geographical separation, find harmony in their sonic fusion. They expertly draw from their influences to breathe life into a song that is hauntingly beautiful, pregnant with emotion, and sincerely impactful.

“Francesca”, is nothing short of a meditative musings of a faded socialite, lost in her wistful longing and stylized by the pens of the talented Forgotten Garden. It is a poignant ballad that echoes through the mist of existential exploration. This track offers music enthusiasts a raw, unforgettable journey stained with the somber colors of a soul longing for an elusive idyllic past.

John Leslie’s “The History of Sugar”: A Sweet and Sultry Journey

John Leslie's "The History of Sugar": A Sweet and Sultry Journey

John Leslie’s newest track, “The History of Sugar,” sure is a complex treat – it’s a delightful fusion of jazz and Latin rhythms that’s just heady enough to give you a sugar rush. The song feels a bit like his journey of nailing down an artist name – a touch tricky to pin down, a bit complicated, but ultimately beautiful in its fierce unity. But let’s not lose track here, this isn’t about an identity crisis. This is about the music. But not just any music, Leslie’s music – and his foray into fresh sonic territories that genuinely deserve some of our time.

You’re barely into the track before it pulls you under with its luxuriant soundscape. Welcome to a universe adorned with ornate instrumentals where Latin beats happily brush up against jazz structures, like friendly neighbours swapping stories across garden fences. Leslie’s layered harmonies are the intoxicating breeze above that carries his emotionally-charged voice over this rowdy neighbourhood of sounds.

John Leslie’s “The History of Sugar”: A Sweet and Sultry Journey

And jeez, that voice! It’s as smooth and lush as a fine port – warm, velvety, with a lingering hint of aged wood. Every word is perfectly audible, and each syllable is beautifully woven into the next, crafting a shifting blend of love, loss, forgiveness, but most of all, of sheer bravery.

Each successive listen amps up the perception of Leslie’s voice – it’s the sort that echoes inside you, and flat out rejects half-hearted listening. Oddly enough, even the quiet moments between phrases seem to vibrate with the unyielding, raw emotion of his performance.

It’s easy to label it a ‘love song’. I would, however, resist the tendency to limit it to that genre – there’s no denying that love covers a majority of this canvas, but flitting shadows of grief and vibrant resilience tinge this masterpiece, giving it an added dimension. It’s as if Leslie’s wordlessly flipping through a time-worn journal for us, laying out how one navigates the twisty, turny pathways of human emotions.

Clearly, Leslie’s music has blossomed from taking a more liberal approach in “The History of Sugar”. The production is indulgent but grounded, bold but humble. The song manages to widen its horizons and straddle musical paradigms, without tempering its intimate soul.

You could chalk it up as just a love ballad or a soundscape journaling Leslie’s journey post name-change. Maybe it’s a bit of both, or none at all. Certain music like this confidently defies classification. So, what *is* “The History of Sugar”? Sorta like the sweet stuff itself – comforting, essential, totally addictive, and might make your head spin before you even know it. But most of all, it’s like the comfort of a warm, well-needed hug. So, get comfy, folks. This one’s worth playing on loop.

Its Time To Wake Up – The Pulltops Inspires With Latest Single

Okay, let’s talk about MUNGMUNG’s new song, “Internet Friends.” It’s all about how we get caught up in the online world, you know, chasing after likes and followers. MUNGMUNG is a hip-hop artist from Sydney, and this song is one of the cool tracks from her first album, “Boujee Bby.” She dropped a fresh music video for it on August 23rd, and it’s eye-opening stuff.

MUNGMUNG’s lyrics are like a mirror that shows us how we’re pretending to be someone else on the internet, using filters and stuff just to get more likes and followers.

MUNGMUNG stated she wrote this song when she was 16 and wondering how the internet affects us and the people around us. And you know what? She’s got a point. The music video shows us all these people hooked on their phones, not paying attention to the real world. It’s like we’re so busy looking at screens that we forget who we really are.

The lyrics talk about how we try to look all grown up on the internet, even if we’re just kids. And then there’s the pressure to post perfect pictures and get more likes. MUNGMUNG asks us to think about how crazy it is that we’re valuing ourselves based on the numbers we get online.

MUNGMUNG wants us to stop and think wants us to remember that we’re more than just the likes we get. She wants us to have real conversations, feel good about ourselves, and have healthy relationships. It’s like a wake-up call, telling us to step away from the screens and enjoy the real world.

The music video goes even further, showing how we sometimes change ourselves to fit in online. Filters make us look different, and we’re more interested in our phones than real people. It’s like a reminder that we’re losing ourselves in this online game.

So, yeah, “Internet Friends” is a reminder that we’re worth more than the numbers on our screens. It’s time to unplug a bit, remember who we are, and live our real lives. Thanks, MUNGMUNG, for this real talk.

Still Dusk’s Debut “Garden” is a sonic oasis of alt-rock/pop

Still Dusk's Debut "Garden" is a sonic oasis of alt-rock/pop
Still Dusk's Debut "Garden" is a sonic oasis of alt-rock/pop

To some, Athens, Greece may sound like an unlikely birthplace of engrossing alt-rock/pop. Yet, Still Dusk, a band comprised of talent with stellar dynamism, disrupts this notion with their debut EP “Garden.” It’s an audio garden indeed, blooming with raw energy and emotion that speaks volumes about the fledgling collective’s ambition and creativity.

In the 𝑘𝑎𝑙𝑒𝑖𝑑𝑜𝑠𝑐𝑜𝑝𝑒 of sounds and textures “Garden” presents, vocalist Konstantina’s performance bears special mention. Her voice shifts effortlessly between caustic growls and melodic harmonies – a delicate dance of femininity and grit that spins a captivating web around the listeners.

“Garden” consists of three songs – each a seedling sprouting its unique image within the overall sonic landscape. The overall compositions hark back to the golden era of alt-rock/pop yet sprinkled with a dash of metallic resonance. The musical tastes of Giannis on the guitar and back vocals, Ioanna on percussion, and Ilias commanding the bass line, work in synergy to produce a fascinating balance of fierce intensity and melodic allure that is undeniably refreshing.

Then there are the stories – poignant, chilling, and thought-provoking narratives that thread their way through the tapestry of “Garden”. The song “Shattered” rips open a dark chapter of Greek history – a vicious murder that shocked the nation. The raw emotion of the lyrics gnaws at the listener’s soul, channeling the fear, sorrow, and the uneasy contemplation of human cruelty.

Among other standouts, “A Night with Morgan,” is inspired by the chilling lore of Slenderman and the horrific incident of Waukesha, Wisconsin, in 2014. The song roils with ominous undercurrents, the eerie narrative threaded through the ebb and flow of pounding drums and pulsating guitar riffs, imprinting on listener’s psyche an impression of the inexplicable darkness humanity sometimes plumbs.

In its essence, the EP feels like a garden at dusk – still, yet humming with life, charming yet veined with an undercurrent of melancholy as darkness encroaches. It leaves you in a state of emotional flux – intrigued, warmed, frightened, moved, and above all, eagerly anticipating the next sonic bud that will bloom from Still Dusk.

With “Garden,” Still Dusk has carved an impressive niche for themselves. They have satisfyingly served up a debut that announces their arrival on the music stage with a bang, and if the quality on offer here is any indicator, this is a band that is set to win over a legion of dedicated fans in the vibrant alt-rock/pop scene.

“Garden” catapults Still Dusk to the forefront of promising bands emerging from the Athens alt-rock/pop milieu. Be it raw performances, emotive lyrics, or artfully layered compositions – everything about “Garden” promises a new establishment in the genre, inviting listeners to stroll through the verdant labyrinth of this musical treasure. This is a garden you will want to revisit time and again, one that grows richer with each subsequent listen. The seeds have been sown, and one can hardly wait for the full bloom.

Blake Yung and Benny Mayne Team Up for Electrifying New Single “Next”

Blake Yung and Benny Mayne Team Up for Electrifying New Single "Next"
Blake Yung and Benny Mayne Team Up for Electrifying New Single "Next"

Blake Yung has really outdone himself with “Next”, a punch of alternative rap with a guest spot from Benny Mayne. You can hear Yung’s talent bursting at the seams in this track; it takes you on a wild emotional ride, stirred up by the trading lyrics between him and Mayne

The track’s been blinged up by Grammy-nominated producer, Eric Von, and boy does it shine. The production pulls everything great about hip-hop into the digital era, mixing layers of synths, shifting basslines and auto-tuned vocals together. The result? A wild soundscape you can’t help but lose yourself in.

Yung’s vocals really pack a punch here, the auto-tune carrying his words and adding extra weight to every line. His emotion shifts between cocky swagger and introspective vulnerability, and that rollercoaster is reflected in his flow. Teamed with Mayne’s more grounded verses, the duo create a track that’s a little left of what we’re used to from rap music – and it’s refreshing AF.

“Next” could be a sneak peek at what’s to come from Yung – he’s got an EP due out in September and this track shows he’s not afraid to stir the pot with his material.

The track shows Yung’s pretty comfortable treading new ground in music. Not just content to stick to one style or genre, Yung blends together a mix of classic and contemporary to form a sound all his own – and listeners are loving it. His popularity’s seriously on the rise, and it’s tracks like “Next” that prove just why that’s the case.

“Next” is a win for Yung, showing us this is a guy who’s definitely going places. Between its banging production, lyrical content and Benny Mayne’s on-point verses, the track just grabs hold and refuses to let go. If “Next” is a taste of what’s coming up in his forthcoming EP, fans are in for a treat. It looks like rap’s evolution is set to keep spinning and with Yung as part of the mix, that’s nothing but good news for fans.

Gutsy J’s Resonating Revelation in “Quiet Calamity”

Gutsy J’s Resonating Revelation in "Quiet Calamity"
Gutsy J’s Resonating Revelation in "Quiet Calamity"

“Quiet Calamity.” It’s the latest hit from this guy called Gutsy J. You might not know him yet, but give it time. His music is like a story straight from Los Angeles’s back alleys, a raw and vulnerable mix of hip-hop and emo rap that will leave you thinking long after the tune ends.

Can’t pin Gutsy J as just a musician. The dude’s a full-on raconteur, almost like a preacher on a beat, digging into the gritty details of personal struggle and, well, trying to find a way out. As soon as “Quiet Calamity” kicks off, it throws you headlong into some deep, deep self-reflection. And the energy? It just builds and builds, capturing the full blast of Gutsy’s fierce lyrics.

His flow? Like a quiet storm, you know? Slipping through every beat, much like that secret prayer you’d whisper hoping someone, something above is listening. With every word, Gutsy J lays bare a tale of truth, of struggle, and a hope for a way out of the storm.

Take some Eminem, add a little Nas, throw in a touch of Kanye, and you’re getting close to what Gutsy J has created here. He’s honest, raw, and forces you to experience every human emotion, from guilt and regret to sheer determination and hope.

From a music nerd point of view, the track isn’t overdone. The focus remains where it should – on Gutsy’s words, his story. The lowkey production doesn’t interrupt, it just elevates, offering that quiet echo underlining his central message.

After listening to “Quiet Calamity,” it’s clear it’s much more than just some track. It’s Gutsy J’s personal confession, an introspective ballad that ain’t afraid to stare down your demons and offer a glimmer of hope. For a new guy on the scene, Gutsy J ain’t playing around. His tenacity, his honesty, and that raw talent make him someone to keep an eye on, and “Quiet Calamity?” Yeah, that’s his calling card.
