“Give or Take” Music Video from Coffeehouse

musecoffehouse1

Coffeehouse has released the music video to their single “Give or Take”.  The song comes from their debut album Square One.  When you listen to it, “Give or Take” is a nice ballad song that’s not to slow or to fast, it hits just right.  With the lyrics it is a little bit of a submission song to your loved one.  However, the band or director of the music video went a different route.  They take the viewer on a paranormal journey.  Fans of this genre will definitely enjoy the video, but with the lyrics the song can take on a different feel that the main characters are submitting to a deity.  Coffeehouse is putting themselves on the radar, so far what I have heard from them I have enjoyed.  Thank you to the band for sharing their music video via their YouTube channel – Richard:

musekosha2

Kosha Dillz and the MuseBox are sharing his music video for the single “Been Down”, through Dillz’ YouTube channel.  With “Been Down” Dillz has the rhythm, beat, and sound down for his chosen genre.  The music video has a bright quality to it, which you don’t usually associate with the Rap genre, but it works.  Music is about the artists feelings and experiences and sharing them in the style that they enjoy and this is Dillz’ style.  This particular single has a more upbeat rap song, so the beat is really catchy.  Most will enjoy the up tempo of the single so check out “Been Down” below – Richard:

The Singularity Wants us to Get “Wetter”

magnum prwetter

All you children of the ’80’s, The Singularity is the band for you.  Magnum PR gives us our first posting from their company and it’s a winner for me.  Magnum PR and Katie Trimble are sharing The Singularity’s music video “Wetter” through the “A Jude” YouTube channel.  The “Wetter” single is a flashback to the 1980’s with an electronic sound.  If the rest of their EP, Weta, is anything like this single you will want to check out their music.  The music video is a mixture of animation and anime/live action overlays.  Again for me I love it because I enjoy animation.  The video also has a little bit of a call back to the Rick Astley music video for ‘Never Gonna Give You Up”, dancing with a wall as the background.  Check it out and have some fun my ’80’s fans – Richard:

X-Files Returns to Fox

Pinch me.  Michelle sent this to me yesterday and I also read about it online.  One of my favorite TV shows, the X-Files, is having a summer season it looks like!  David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson reunite with Chris Carter for a 6 episode season.  Hopefully this will be a spring board for more summer season rather than a full blown season.  This would allow fans to have the X-Files and the actors could do other projects as well.

Tru Fam releases “Janet Jean”

blackpandaPRtrufam

“Janet Jean” comes to us from Tru Fam.  The music to this single has a great beat, the urban hip hop style with a middle eastern flare to it.  Not sure if that is just for this individual single or if this style is in all of their music, but I enjoyed it…something a little bit different.  Sorry about this next bit guys.  I’m not a fan of auto-tune.  An artists voice can stand on its own no matter who’s it is.  You gentlemen have good voices let the spot light be on them.  That is just me, others will like it and enjoy the style.  Check out “Janet Jean” through SoundCloud – Richard

“Stay Gold” by of Verona

blackpandaPRverona

Mandi Perkins and Dillon Pace, make up the band of Verona, and they have currently released the single “Stay Gold”.  Their music is Synth influenced, but with a heavy beat in this single.  It feels like it will be a power ballad but it never hits that hard chorus that you expect after the buildup.  Instead they pulled back and kept the lyrics softer.  It’s an interesting mixture and worked well for them.  Check out “Stay Gold” through SoundCloud – Richard:
