Mike Dignam - Under The Influence [Music Video Review]

September 18, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Neo-Soul

Rating: 3.5 out of 5

“Mike Dignam has dropped a soulful single with evocative emotions.

’Under The Influence’ is rife with self-loathing and the words and performance ring true enough to pull the listener deep into his perspective. Which in turn, allows us a clearer look at our own thoughts and emotions.”

    Mentum - You The One [Review]

    September 06, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Commercial, Neo-Soul

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “With a lot of soul, and a dash of pop fusion, Mentum delivers ‘You The One,’ a single that in the old days would be dedicated on radio shows and included on homemade mix tapes for the one you love. Now I suppose it will be added to playlists and played in the shadow of night as lovers collide.

    In other words, this is a smooth love song that hits the right notes musically and emotionally.”

      D'Sound - Aftershock [Review]

      August 31, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Neo-Soul

      Rating: 3.5 out of 5

      “Silky vocals and a nice energy are at the forefront of this single from Scandinavian Neo-Soul band D’Sound. A good beat gives this one a party feel, even though the lyrics are a bit heavier emotionally.”

          “Funky fun soul misic!

          ’Drink With You’ delivers a gospel of emotion about that one person you can’t really be alone with, much less start sipping those drinks. Because if you allow it to happen ... clothes will hit the floor, and skin will collided.”

              “This single is one of simple elegance. A quiet melody and beat add the the emotion of a straightforward delivery, that feels heartfelt and genuine.

              ’Music Man’ is the kind of song you feel more than you hear.”

                Rating: 3.5 out of 5

                “Heartfelt vocals deliver this melancholy pop song about wanting to feel okay, while feeling stuck and out of place.

                Acoustic guitar melodies add to the lonely vibe of this stripped down set of lyrics. Heavy on emotion, this is the kind of track that you play when you don’t want to think too much, or have your mind changed, but rather are looking for the perfect tune to match your brooding mood. ”

                    “Soulful and genuine, this track feels like the perfect soundtrack for any of us that have ever wandered off the path. The musical accompaniment to an awakening, an awareness, a rebirth. The melody is every bit as emotional as the lyrics, and the last beats of this one will have you wallowing in the feels.”

                                “If Bruno Mars were an English woman ... this is how he would sound.

                                A single that is impossible not to groove to, and a video that makes me want to head down to Venice Beach to dance in the sun.”

                                    “This track is the musical form of a sassy, tell-you-like-it-is older sister.

                                    Emily Chambers delivers ‘Real Talk’ with smooth soul and vocal excellence.”

                                      “I like the groove of this song and it does give the neo soul vibe, however the ending provides a disconnect to the earlier tempo of the song and lyrics.”

                                        “‘Not Given Up’ rolls out to your ears feeling like three songs in one, and the entire trio is engaging and entertaining. The vocals pulled me in and held me tight through all three delivery styles and musically this track gets out of the way so that the emotions and lyrics carry the way.”
