Mike Schiavo’s Music Video for “Back For Me”

Mike Schiavo is sharing with our listeners his music video for his single “Back For Me”.  If Mike’s name sounds a little familiar it might be from his time on season 10 of The Voice.  Mike has a clear strong voice that he uses in his “Back For Me” ballad.  I also love how he is keeping the instrumentals simple and he lets his voice be the star of the single.  The video that has been produced for the single is really crisp and clean as well and has that story element to it not just Mike singing to us.  For me I appreciate this type of music video more because the director and artist are being creative for this aspect of the song.  “Back For Me” is from his self-titled EP that is available from your download service of choice.  Here’s Mike Schiavo’s music video for his single “Back For Me” through SpotsTheGinga YouTube channel – Richard:

Emma Charleston’s Single “Falling”

Emma Charleston hits me in one of my sweet spots with her single “Falling” that she is sharing with ComicPop’s listeners.  Emma has a nice clean strong voice that shines with this singles acoustical folk/pop style.  This reminds me of something back in the day that John Denver would sing.  This is a great way to have a first single.  I can’t wait to see if Emma continues down the folk/pop genre or if she will change up, but for my .02 Cents worth this genre she would shine in and I look forward to her next release.  Here’s Emma Charleston’s “Falling” through SoundCloud – Richard

Cado’s Latest Single “Say Sumthin”

Cado is sharing his latest single “Say Sumthin”.  This single takes on a more lyrical vibe that spoken vibe.  As with any type of music rap has it’s different styles that artists use.  Most people are used to the spoken rap, but Cado is using the rhythm of the instrumentals to do what I call a lyrical rap, where the vocalist is doing a style that is midway between a spoken rap and just pure singing a single.  The voice is clear and works well with this lyrical style and is a nice change of pace.  You can check out Cado’s “Say Sumthin” on spotity ( Say Sumth ) or right here through SoundCloud – Richard:

Nozart Single “Puppet”

Nozart, lead by composer/pianist/producer Noah Kellman, is sharing their single “Puppet” with our listeners.  “Puppet” will be one that our alternative rock and I believe our steampunk rock listeners will get into with ease.  I myself love the instrumentals and would love to have Nozart do a pure instrumental song, the opening is just right up my alley.  However, I realize that an instrumental piece is probably the most daunting of releases.  However, Nozart is definitely playing to their fan base and genre.  The vocals stay just above the instruments so listeners can enjoy the lyrics, but if this is going to be their style they’ll have to watch that they don’t let the instrumentals overpower the vocals.  For me this hits a genre I enjoy and I think it will for others as well.  Here’s Nozart’s “Puppet” through SoundCloud – Richard:
