Morgan Lane - All In My Head (feat. Bailey Jehl) [Music Review]

March 10, 2023 by Travis Erwin in Music, Future Bass, EDM, Dance, Pop

Rating: 4.5 out of 5

“Heartaches and breakups might be the most written about subject matter so it it is tough to stand out with those themes and yet, Morgan Lane in conjunction with the vocal talent of Bailey Jehl manages just that. ‘All In MY Head’ is about the disorienting feeling of seeing your former partner move on quickly and completely leaving you to wonder of what you felt was ... All in your head. ”

    VAVO - Waitin' On It [Music Review]

    March 10, 2023 by Travis Erwin in Music, Deep House, Dance, EDM

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “VAVO has exploded recently so if they have been ‘Waitin’ In It,’ they don’t have to wait any longer. Coming on the heels of their smash hit, ‘Take Me Home,’ the duo is currently sitting on top of charts and the Dance Pop world.

    This track has a slightly subdued feel that is the perfect follow and shows a bit of diversity that will help carry them a long way to longevity. ”

      Riton - Sugar (feat. Soaky Siren) [Music Video Review]

      February 28, 2023 by Travis Erwin in Music, EDM, Future Bass, Trap, Rap

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “GRAMMY winner RITON returns with an energetic dancefloor banger that samples 50 Cents ‘Candy Shop’ and offers the vocal talents of rising Rap star Soaky Siren. The beat is infectious and the ‘Sugar’ oh so sweet on this EDM/Hip-Hop blending vibe.

      A track sure to get listeners moving and singing along by the first chorus, no matter how you want to categorize this genre being single.”

        Nekter Gun - Don't Wanna See You Leave [Music Review]

        February 24, 2023 by Travis Erwin in Music, EDM

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “This track from Nekter Gun starts low key before building into a dynamic and powerful EDM track. The lyrical build is emotional and engaging and the production behind it matches the vibe making this a well rounded track you can move to and dig in deep on at the same time. Detailing the emotions of finally calling it quits on an an again/off again relationship, the track rings genuine and true. ”

          ZUSO - Take Me (Feat Jaki Nelson) [Music Review]

          February 21, 2023 by Travis Erwin in Music, EDM, Deep House

          Rating: 4.5 out of 5

          “Sydney based producer, ZUSO teams up with the vocal talent of LA’s Jaki Nelson for this after hours vibe that wraps around the listener like a firm hug. A track that simply feels right and comfortable, ‘Take Me’ is sort of tranquil and calm, yet still uplifting.

          The production is spot on and the vocals sync perfectly to create the exact track you need after a long night of being on the dancefloor.

          Call it a coming down song if you will but don’t dismiss this one as an afterthought, as it certainly has strong legs of its own.”

            Rating: 4 out of 5

            “This track is a Commercial leaning EDM single with elements of various Electronic genres as well as some Pop sensibilities. Goshok is a rising star and the Indie artist hopes to be come the first Czech artist to grace the mainstage at the largest music festivals int he world and with songs like ‘On My Mind’ it is easy to believe he will achieve those dreams sooner rather than later. ”

              Nicky Romero x Philip Strand x DubVision - Stay A Little Longer [Music Review]

              Rating: 4 out of 5

              “Nicky Romero is back after a string of hit singles. This much anticipated collaboration with DubVision and singer/songwriter Philip Strandis poised to add to his library of stellar House singles.

              The single is melodic and grounded in a progressive root style that p[airs well alongside the strong vocals and nuanced build. ‘Stay A Little Longer’ has that big stage feel and euphoria you will find in the electricity of a big festival crowd. ”

                VIZE x R3HAB - One Last Time [Music Video Review]

                September 28, 2022 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, EDM, Commercial

                Rating: 4 out of 5

                “If the idea of EDM is truly to get you up and moving, then ‘One Last Time’ from VIZE and R3HAB certainly hits the target. Sure, the vibe is chill for the genre, but the track is engaging at the same time, and while the track isn’t the high energy club banger that dominates the gerne, it is certainly engaging and enthralling. The strong vocals and production make it an impossible track to ignore both physically and emotionally. ”

                  Steam Phunk x Idun Nicoline - Hell & High Water [Review]

                  August 12, 2022 by Kreadiv Kesh in Commercial, EDM

                  Rating: 4 out of 5

                  “Hell & High Water” typically means do whatever needs to be done, no matter the circumstances. Steam Phunk and Idun Nicoline face the fact of leaving. When others do what makes them happy you have to do what makes you happy. Despite the lyrical heartbreak the song has an upbeat tempo to it. When you are tired of trying you have to come to the reality of leaving no matter what.”

                    “The ‘Barricades’ we all face are unavoidable, but how we handle the distractions and roadblocks defines who we are.

                    Netsky and Rita Ora join forces to bring out this energetic performance. Her vocal range and talent combine and blend with his artful musical creations to create an uplifting track that soars and motivates and is almost inescapable as you fall in and ride the waves of energy.

                      “Bad Taste and Farmboy Slim team to deliver this fun, prickly ride. There are retro vibes of the Beastie Boys and a bit of techno Fatboy Slim Funk vibes as well, but the track really has that eccentric feel that is tough to pin down.

                      The LA brothers created the track after a psychedelic experience in the desert and you can tell in the best ways that it came from a freethinking mindset. A fun track with a twist and sharp pointed poke at every turn. Get ready to move and smile and reflect a bit as well.”

Teaming up with Swedish group Galantis, this big bold offering is an epic conversation about how we run from love after being hurt a few times. The uplifting nature of the melody and build lends the track an almost motivational quality and serves as a reminder to us all that there is power in the vulnerability of keeping our hearts open to the idea of love. ”

                                “This track tells a story, not only in the emotional and passionate lyrics, but also in a well crafted video.

                                ’Easy’ dives into the dysfunctional rules of love and broken hearts. The fact it is easy to blame the other person when the one you loves strays.

                                The song is nuanced and real, just as modern love tends to be, and the ride is emotional and genuine. Combining EDM with a Contemporary R&B brand of delivery, the single takes a few surprising turns in its arrangement and video presentation, but holds the listener throughout.”

                                  Alexander Popov x Paul Oakenfold - Love You Back [Review]

                                  “This time Alexander Popov and Paul Oakenfold come with a slow build and emotional track that builds into an energized dance number that is hard for your body and mind to refuse. More tranquil than you might expect from the pair, ‘Love You Back’ is a definite vibe of love and dance that compels the listener to surrender to the moment just as we all have to do when love becomes inevitable. ”

                                    ZUSO - Melt Like Gold [Review]

                                    “ZUSO captures a bit of magic with the track, ‘Melt Like Gold.’ The track has an ethereal dreamlike vibe, but instead of leaving you in a trance of disassociation the song calms and mesmerizes in a way that relaxes and keeps you engaged at the same time.

                                    At just over 5 minutes the song is long, but still I found myself wanting more. A mood setting track to reset your mind and body.”

                                      “Offering an intriguing build, ‘Rush’ from Steerner is a track that sweeps you up and in. Much like the rush of any addiction, it is hard to turn away from and that is exactly what the lyrics here are about. Be it drugs, love, or simply the thrill of a the beat on the dance floor this track is about chasing that vibe and feeling. A clean production and talented delivery brings it all home.”

                                        “This collaborative effort has a light airiness that swept me up and into yhe build. The vocal talent and clean production behind it are both top notch, making this is a track that simply pulled me in with its jaunty energy and infectious build.

                                        A single that is easy to connect to and stay with making it feel uplifting and light in all the best ways. ”
