This album is one that harks back to the days when Alternative music was filled with fervent guitars and powerful drumming, while still having its own completely unique feel to it. Fans of Smashing Pumpkins material and similar music should check out Aoeria's "Waterwheel."

"Return from Broken" by Matt Soren (Rock Artist from Utah)

2010-04-19T14:17:00.001-07:00

Matt Soren's newest album is "Return from Broken." It is one in which Soren fuses intense Electronic and Psychedelic Rock techniques to present a very cutting-edge sounding album that was made after Soren's successful battle with addiction and recovery. In "Breathe" we hear an echoed and industrial-type beat interact with Soren's effected voice and dancing synth tones. "Become" is a complex and building song with a lot of electronic sounds moving in and out giving way to a more soothing sounding tonality. For "On the Edge" we hear Soren play a relatively simple song as he begins by playing on his acoustic guitar before more hallucinatory sounds slowly move in. This is an album that is best described as Psychedelic/Industrial Rock, where the traditional use of the guitar is abandoned for more industrial sounding effects. Fans of Nine Inch Nails or Muse would find themselves drawn to Matt Soren's album, "Return from Broken."

"Walk Humbly" by Kathy Boyd & Phoenix Rising (Bluegrass Artist from Oregon)

2010-04-19T12:11:00.001-07:00

"Walk Humbly" is the most recent album from Kathy Boyd & Phoenix Rising. It is a Christian music album that professes faith and love through the medium of bluegrass music. "Cast The First Stone" has a pleasantly rambling backwoods sound to it with crystal clear and spiritually inspiring lyrics. "I Ain't Afraid To Die" is a playful and swiftly paced bluegrass number with a message that if one has faith, death will no longer be a fear. "Faith Hope Bluegrass Music" is the song that best projects what this band is about, in a lively song that relies just on the strings of a guitar and mandolin with wonderful vocals/harmonies. This album is a collection of beautiful sounding traditional bluegrass songs that stand up on their own with the ever-present addition of a loving Christian message. If Christian music and bluegrass are two things you enjoy, then "Walk Humbly" is an album that needs to be in your collection immediately.

The enchanting album, "The House Jazz Concert Series, Vol. 1" by Dave Powers is a collection of Jazz songs played live - in Dave's house no less - by piano, guitar, and drums that have a vibrant, yet genially relaxed energy. "The 'In' Crowd" is a toe-tapping, foot-shuffling song with a soulful energy. "Jitterbug Waltz" is a mellow Jazz waltz with almost mysterious-sounding piano playing along with soft drum brushes and subtle guitar hits. For "Joy Spring" we have a softly spirited Jazz song in which the electric guitar delightfully takes the lead as the piano and drums create a sweet and colorful sound-scape. This album is filled with highly entertaining Jazz songs that definitely have the familiar feel of an impromptu performance while still being overtly professional.

The newest release from Warren B. is "To Live Another Day" and is an album comprised of hard hitting and high energy Hip-Hop/Rap songs over which Warren B., along with a handful of guests, skillfully lay down their lyrics. "We At War (feat. Tha Dawn & B-shad)" has a consistent building low end and clapping snare that combine to make for a truly bangin' beat, over which we hear an easy flowing Rap rhyme. "Put'em Up (feat. Willie James)" is a raucous number with intense lyrics along with a consistent escalating sound to the beat. "Southwest (feat. B-shad)" is more of a fun number with a bouncing, southern-style, beat to it. This is an album for those who appreciate consistently spirited Hip-Hop/Rap beats and relatively fierce lyrics. Fans of Scarface would thoroughly enjoy the selection of songs on the album "To Live Another Day."

"Nocturne" by Colyn Fischer & Shauna Pickett-Gordon (World Artist from San Francisco, California(CA))

2010-03-13T19:06:00.001-08:00

"Nocturne" is the latest album from the duo Colyn Fischer & Shauna Pickett-Gordon. This is a wonderfully unique album, in which we hear solely the piano and violin combine into a superb collection of music that is part Celtic, part classical, and part Jazz. In "First Rain of the New Year" we hear both instruments delight the listener in their own way, the violin heartfelt while the piano softly accompanies with a sweet and somber tone. "The Stream is High" is an energetic number in which the violin calls out thrillingly as the piano frolics delightfully alongside. "The Astronomer" is a number that really shows how these musicians can fuse traditional Celtic music with a more contemporary jazz sound. All in all, this entire album is a true celebration of the fantastic potential inherent within the simple pairing of a violin and piano in the right musicians' hands. Fans of Celtic music, as well as those of avant-garde Jazz music, would do themselves a favor by listening to Colyn Fischer & Shauna Pickett-Gordon's album, "Nocturne."

"The Bounce," as its name may suggest, is a groovy, danceable tune, and has slow moving tempo interludes; adding to the easy listening vibe that comes with each of these tracks. All around, "The Certaintity of Being Found" is great for fans that enjoy fresh and original ambient Reggae music.

2010-02-15T15:22:00.001-08:00

"Leave the Kids Behind" is the latest album by the creative and hilarious comic BS (A. Whiteman). This is an adult comedy album (as it contains an explicit language and content advisory) in which a couple tracks are original comical Hip-Hop songs and others are hilarious parodies of Pop songs.

"When I was Doin' Cocaine (Parody of Where the Streets Have No Name)" is a song in which BS tells us about his drug use to the tune of U2's famous hit.

"The Wind Gave Me This Story" by Miho Saigo (World Artist from Japan)

2010-02-14T16:50:00.001-08:00

Miho Saigo's debut CD, "The Wind Gave Me This Story," is a captivating work of Eastern tones and contemporary melodies, expressed in the rich vernacular of a Mongolian 2-stringed instrument called a morin khuur. Similar in sound and size to a cello (although slightly smaller with a more box-like body), the morin khuur produces a varied sound, much dependent on the performer's unique artistry, which, in Saigo's case, is considerable. Accompanied mainly by spare and nuanced piano, the 7 instrumental pieces on "The Wind Gave Me This Story" evoke the wild plains of Mongolia with deep and inspired reverie. A plaintive melody infuses CD-opener, "A Song of Wind and Sky," a song of wonderment for nature's bounty, while Saigo effectively plays with rhythm on the visually evocative, "A White Horse in Suho." While the beautiful "The Kite" is less buoyant than one might infer, its pastoral melody is like a kite's tail gliding across an open sky with infinite grace. Equal parts Asian World music and New Age soundscapes, Miho Saigo's "The Wind Gave Me This Story" CD is an engaging and spiritual album for listeners with imagination as profound as wind.

"Patiently" by Jason Dolan (Folk Artist from San Francisco, California(CA))

2010-02-01T18:54:00.001-08:00

The entertaining debut CD released from talented artist Jason Dolan is titled "Patiently." In it Dolan has created a collection of Folk/Rock songs that vary from mellow and reserved to excited and rock-like that all follow his vocals first, and then his guitar. The opener, "Cassie" is a spirited song in which Dolan is accompanied by drums as he, at times comically, laments over a failed relationship. "Shades of Grey" is a song in which he sings and talks quickly, yet plays his guitar slowly and soulfully, to create a juxtaposed folk song that is quite entertaining for the ears. "Isabel" is a more traditional folk song, with just Dolan and his guitar, as he shows off his deft vocal talents in a song with emotive lyrics. It is probably Dolan's background as humorous poet that is the reason why his brand of Folk/Rock orbits closely around his voice and words more-so than the average musician, yet this is what gives the album is undeniable uniqueness. If you enjoy vivaciously written folk music or would like to hear what an accomplished poet with a guitar might sound like, then listen to "Patiently" by Jason Dolan as you will find this album filled with new and refreshing compilations.

The song, "B-hop," features Ramey demonstrating his ability to hold long notes as he calmly plays over a shuffling contemporary R&B beat. "Sarumba" is a song in which R&B is skillfully fused with a little bit of a Latin flair as Ramey plays passionately on his sax. "Don't Tarry Children" is a song in which we hear how the saxophone can best be used as an emotive instrument. In this album Ramey combines R&B subtly with a variety of genres for his background music, and then lets his saxophone become the vocalist and story teller.

2010-01-24T16:50:00.001-08:00

"Silent Words" by the highly talented artist Thomas Frykberg is an easy listening and elevating Jazz crossover album. Frykberg takes an open-ended approach on the genre with various melodic melodies and the experimentation of different types of percussion to accompany the traditional drum set. "Doniazade" is a very exotic and quintessential jazz track as it employs an interesting melody on the saxophone combined with other inspired timbres and chimes. This track also shows the artist's ability to adapt to changing and various styles all the while keeping it fresh and innovating. Another song, "Celebration Nr 2," is extremely interesting in that the track is played in a classic Jazz style as the sax deftly plays the melody while the subtle African style percussive beats play with fascinating tonality. Frykberg is superb as he incorporates the genre of smooth Jazz with many colorful flavors and textures and the listener is able to get a musical taste of the international world through this album. If you like Jazz music with smooth and relaxed vibes, then "Silent Words" is an album you will thoroughly enjoy.

2010-01-24T15:49:00.001-08:00

Dominik Baumgartner's latest release album is "From Bach Till Dawn." In this album Baumgartner has created an exceptionally choice collection of Baroque era classical music that is created through a virtual orchestra enhanced by sophisticated computer generated software. The song, "Hänsel und Gretel – A Fairy Tale Opera: Act II - "Introduction: The Witches' Ride," is well orchestrated as the woodwinds and flittering brass section perform with a dynamic intensity. For the "Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 in G Major, BWV 1048: III. Presto" we find ourselves confronted with an intensely swirling interplay between the strings as a brilliant counterpoint precision runs with powerful and exquisite tonality. The sound textures within the song, "Choral: The Old Forest," is replete with stirring choir like voices and violins that are dark, brooding, and emotive which gives this song a haunting sense of mystery. This album is one in which Baumgartner has embraced the musical world using the aid of a computer and this is no easy feat to accomplish as each song is well produced and well balanced with high quality sound textures. This album is perfect for those who already enjoy Bach, as it is a refreshing new look at Baroque music but isn't a break away from what makes the music so powerfully special to begin with.

"Crash Landing" by Zallen (Adult Rock Artist from Los Angeles, California(CA))

2010-01-20T16:22:00.001-08:00

The talented multi-instrumentalist Zallen, has put together a terrific collection of quasi-psychedelic pop/rock on his latest released album, "Crash Landing," that harks back to the days of classic rock, yet still retains a unique voice. "Mission To the Moon" is a fun number with enjoyable lyrics, solid lead vocals, a galloping rhythm, and vivacious drums and guitars. In "Out of Phase" we find more of an antiquated rock and roll beat replete with fiery piano chords and great guitar riffs which compliment Zallen's vocal prowess. "The Last September" is a sharp flowing rock song in which we hear how Zallen's voice delivers strong and melodic tonality. This album is for those who appreciate classic rock music with progressive modern touches and psychedelic expression. It is well produced and each arrangement has a nice dynamic balance between vocals and instruments. Fans of David Bowie or Muse will thoroughly enjoy the well crafted collection of songs of "Crash Landing" by the talented artist Zallen.

"Mangoes, Musical Shorts, Vol. 1" by Jeremy Moyer (World Artist from Ontario, Canada)

2010-01-13T15:37:00.001-08:00

The soothing tones and inviting melodies of multi-instrumentalist Jeremy Moyer's fine CD, "Mangoes, Musical Shorts, Vol. 1," adds up to a thoroughly enjoyable World Fusion listening experience. Making the intricate fretwork on various instruments sound effortless, Moyer's skills are front and center, both as a musician and as a composer. The peaceful, lulling track, "Bedtime Stories," utilizes the aforementioned string instruments to their maximum potential; the melody is that of a familiar lullaby, but unique twists are added that make this rendition truly singular. "Worker's Theme Song," with its expressive percussion, adds a rhythmic element to the album, while the Brazilian feel of "El Chino Guapo" showcases yet a different side of Moyer's musical reach. For World Music that's exciting and different, but not daunting, Jeremy Moyer's "Mangoes, Musical Shorts, Vol. 1" is a great choice.

Highly talented Country musician, Jim Wise, and his latest release "Nashville Tracks" is an album recorded in the traditional country/rock style and is loaded with a substantial 17 tracks. The song, "Tearing Me Apart," is a slow country tune in which Wise pours out his heart into the microphone as the piano and acoustic guitar interplay with his heartfelt lyrics.

Wise also rocks out on the song, "Good Girls Go To Heaven," in a jubilant and louder country rock song that reminds one of a combination of ZZ Top and Lyle Lovett.

"Threshold" is the latest record from the highly acclaimed recording artist Sugar Blue. It is a record comprised of songs that fuse Rock, Funk, Jazz, and Blues all around Sugar's Grammy-winning harmonica playing and features a cast of highly professional musicians. The track, "Messin' with the kid," is a classic Blues tune with a little bit of exhilaration thrown in and features some gritty and soulful harmonica playing from Sugar. "Noel news" is a funky piece, played with a little bit of Creole influence, that celebrates what Christmas is like down in the crescent city of New Orleans. "Don't call me" is more of a tranquil jazz song in which Sugar lets his harmonica playing be a soulful backup to his vocals as he emotionally croons to the one he loves. This album is one that celebrates and mixes the roots of music that has helped shape the culture in America. Whether you want to dance or be musically inspired, this album will do it for you.

"Crazy to Sane" by Lynette Louise

2010-01-12T18:38:00.001-08:00

"Crazy to Sane" by Lynette Louise is an entertaining CD that is intended to raise awareness of autism. Through this CD, Lynette uses autobiographical vignettes with soft background chanting, and strong songs to bring attention to this mental health issue. This CD set includes a first CD of songs and spoken vignettes, and a second CD that only includes the songs of the first CD. Lynette is not afraid to tastefully use humor on the CD to help raise awareness of this serious mental health issue. Lynette introduces a number of humorous characters on the CD. The songs on the CD are a mix of adult rock tracks that include a professionally-mixed full sound, as well as more theatrically-styled humorous songs. The lyrics, whether spoken in the vignettes or sung on the musical tracks, are cleverly themed around autism and the possibility of turning a serious mental health issue into a positive life-changing experience. For example, the title track includes an emotional and screaming chorus that has an effective dynamic change from the rest of the track that will grab your attention. "Maniac Braniac" is one of our favorite tracks on the CD, with a catchy chorus and insightful, clever lyrics. It is a more mainstream-styled adult rock track, with an effective full rock band mix. Lynette's emotional vocals are especially effective on this track. "Unfinished" is another noteworthy track, with nice electric guitar riffs above a powerful bass line, and a strong chorus. The music is especially tight on this track. Take some time out of your day to be entertained by this CD, and to learn about Lynette's journey through life with autism.

'The Legacy of Hip-Hop & Reggaeton" by Big-J (Hip-Hop Artist from New York City, New York(NY))

2010-01-12T18:30:00.001-08:00

"The Legacy of Hip-Hop & Reggaeton," the new CD by rapper Big-J, offers a full repertoire of hip-hop and reggaeton sounds, plus various fusions of both genres with other Latin styles (like salsa). With nineteen original tracks, Big-J gives the listener a taste of what real hip-hop - reminiscent of ODB and Bone Thugs and Harmony, truly is. The opening track, "God Show Me Mercy," speaks of the artist's passion for hip-hop and its effect on his life. The beat is solid and the rhymes are fresh and "in your face." It's the epitome of the concept of the album itself. "Fuego" is a fiery Spanglish reggaeton/hip-hop fusion track which is all about dancing; and given the rhythmic detail and catchy lyrics, it'll definitely get the body movin'. Without giving too much away and ruining the excitement of Big-J's CD, the listener needs to make sure they listen to the album in its entirety; especially the last track.

"Pick Your Face Up Off The Floor : The Remixes" by Farrad (Pop Artist from New York City, New York(NY))

2010-01-12T18:16:00.001-08:00

"Pick Your Face Up Off The Floor : The Remixes" by electronic/funk artist Farrad, is a collection of 12 unique dance remixes of the title song, and includes the bonus track, "Praise 2 The DJ." Although the album primarily fits into the dance or techno genre, the influence of 80's rock and pop as well as hip-hop and R&B are a part of the mix. The tracks move from steady beats to ecstatic ones to slower ones, but all charge the listener to get up and dance their heart out. The "Ron Kurti Remix" is particularly unique in that it has the bass line of good Detroit house, but also features the mesmerizing influence of DJ Tiesto which, when brought together, makes for a high energy dance track - for all of six minutes. On the "JJ Appleton Remix," a funky discotheque theme is more prevalent. The mood is bubbly on this track while the bass line remains thumping. This album is a stepping stone for this artist and listeners of the dance genre should keep an eye on him as his music is sure to grow in popularity in the new year.
