Alex Pop Project Releases “Wanna Be Your Man” Music Video

musealexpop

Check out the Alex Pop Project’s music video for “Wanna Be Your Man”.  The Alex Pop Project is the inspiration of Alexander Ross-Iver.  In this single he has Les McKeown, of the Bay City Rollers, join him.  The song itself has an old school feel to it which I like, but the video was a little hard to watch with the flashing sequences.  Check it out through Tigr Tiger’s link – Richard:

Little Daylight Twice as Nice Remix of “Be Long”

blackpandaPRdaylight

Little Daylight gives everyone their Twice as Nice Remix of their single “Be Long”.  I really like their electropop feel that they have with this remix.  It’s an unusual song that it’s rhythm is a little upbeat, but the lyrics as sung on a more melancholy feel.  It’s and interesting mix.  Check it out through SoundCloud and it they happen to be in your area for their Winter Tour you can check them out live – Richard:

Sweden’s Tom Levin gives us “Mind’s Eye”

city bird publicitytom levin

Tom Levin is one that surprised me.  Tom comes to us from Sweden with his debut single “Mind’s Eye”.  Looking at the pic above most people will wonder if this will be for them.  However, when you listen to Tom he has a very clear voice.  The opening hits you in the face with a tribal feel and then when Tom comes in the single takes on an almost folk feel.  So I guess you could say it has a tribal/folk feeling.  The lyrics are fun and with his baritone/bass voice gives it a powerful tone as well.  Take a listen through SoundCloud – Richard

Jeanine Debuts “Runnin'”

city bird publicityjeanine

This is a promising start for Jeanine.  “Runnin'” reminded me of something Diana Ross might sing, just in a higher register.  I have to say I love the Wolverine pic above.  Anyway back to the single.  Jeanine even with a higher voice, she is very clear with her lyrics, which is difficult for a higher register singer.  I also loved the up beat of “Runnin” .  The beat does get a little repetitive, but I believe that was what Jeanine was going for.  By the time the single is finished the listener is wore out, just like you would be if you were running.  Definitely interested in her future releases.  Take a listen through SoundCloud – Richard:

herMajesty’s Latest “Days Turn into Nights”

blackpandaPRherMajesty

HerMajesty gives us their latest single “Days Turn into Nights”.  This single is a real moody single.  With this single herMajesty has to be careful because the lead singers voice is right on the edge of being lost in the instrumentals, but it hovers right above that threshold.  “Days Turn into Nights” feels like you are in a bath and have warm water slowly being poured over you, while you have a nice drink or if someone has joined you for some welcome activities.  Take a listen through SoundCloud – Richard:

JD Shultz aka Human Brother Gets “Back to Music”

blackpandaPRj.d.

Native Angeleno, devout DIY-ist, multi-instrumentalist, producer, songwriter, painter, artist, philanthropist  and renaissance family man are all accurate descriptives for JD Shultz “aka” Human Brother. He’s releasing a new collection of songs in February called Back to Music.
It’s twelve tracks reflecting an eclectic mix of world and roots influences with positive, life affirming messages – making for a warm, ambient rock record. Shultz wrote, arranged and played all of the instruments on the record. He also produced and recorded Back to Music.
Back to Music reflects Shultz signature aesthetic on plexiglas too… bold, colorful, full of energy and modern. Companies like MGM’s The Bellagio in Las Vegas and Guitar Center commission his work. He built his reputation in and around Los Angeles by simply painting on anything that he could and then eventually launching his own gallery.
