These songs that make up the collection are beautifully well produced & also hit in the way that any superb & memorable song should. There’s plenty more to appreciate on top of this as the project plays out.
What each artist has brought to the stage is pretty flawless & beautiful, resulting in a united piece of music & performance that’s uniquely creative & ticks a lot of boxes. A gorgeous alternative jazz track for the summertime.
Authentic music will always find an audience. I really think there’s an appetite & pent up desire for something authentic, and I’m sure it’s out there somewhere. I’ve heard bands lately, and I can’t figure out why they bother. And don’t get me started on tribute bands.
Daniel has done well to create something unique. What’s interesting about this song though is that musically it appears as a totally alternative, beautifully alt-pop sort of track, satisfying yet incredibly unusual & constantly in conflict with its own energy.
Mikaydo produces a banging yet charming original rap adjacent to a nostalgia-inducing ear-worm, making this the perfect song to smoke something purple to (or green I guess) and not drive anywhere. Just listen to this track & imagine you’re in L.A.
The only thing more powerful than the performance is the writing, and surely the only thing better than listening to Dirty Machine – is seeing them live.
A collaborative release created as a result of experiencing an unnecessary & devastating trauma, specifically the shooting that took place at Route 91 Harvest Festival last September.
I won’t delve too deeply into the lyrical concept, but instead, how beautifully they convey their rendition through sound, feeling, and a textbook example of word painting.
Squid Cult craft their releases creatively, artistically, so the result is this unique song, with an intriguing concept – one that reaches out for your heartstrings, your soul, yet does so among a notably upbeat, uplifting soundscape.
For a soundscape made up primarily of voices & a uniquely thick, organic big beat, Shadows Fade is a surprisingly atmospheric piece of music & writing that’s an easy joy to listen to.
Zach’s approach to artistry is so unique right now, he seems unaffected by genre or expectations, and that makes his music feel all the more free.
