Single Review: “Past Is Gone” – Freya Astrella
What caught my ear with this particular song is Freya’s voice – her tone is rich. It’s nice and deep, and touches the soul. I think that is intentional because of the content of the lyrics, this will cause a literal resonance within you to make you want to progress. What do I mean? Well, …

Single Review: “Time Is Overdue” – Alex Tyche
What I like about this song is its ability to switch from steady paced dance floor banger to a jazzy ballad in the blink of an eye. This starts off with a lovely glassy fender Rhodes, the shakers fade up and then the drum beat comes in at 0:20, giving that Afrobeat vibe. The chord …

The Music Of Sound X Minimums – First Light This has such a cinematic feel to it, and I wouldn’t expect any less from Minimums having played and reviewed their work before. This is like an overture to the album and it’s an inspired choice both in choice of remixer and the sequence in which …

Single Review: “Fine Art” Gardna X JayaHadADream
This exploded out of my AirPods with such energy I had to write something about it. The slick beat is the stage on which Jayahadream and Gardna choose to lay down their rapid fire bars, I love the old school garage vibe on this with glitching synths, they don’t shout it’s pretty chilled and makes …
