Brian Fitzy is bring us some R&B with his single “No Idea”. Brian has a voice that is in the higher register and it fits well with the upbeat rhythm of this single. When you listen to it you kind of get a Hall & Oates feel minus the Oates. With his higher voice and the upbeat rhythm it gives the single a bright airy feel to it. Interested in what else Brain will release in the future. Here’s Brian Fitzy’ “No Idea” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Seven Day Sleep isn’t wanting our listeners to sleep. They want you to check out their music video for their single “Red Lipstick Murders”. The leads vocals are really crisp and clear and when the single starts the simple keystrokes sound eerie and then the heavy sound hits fast to lead into the verse which is more of a pop influence and then they band takes you into the metal sound with the chorus. I really love the beat of this single and the different things that they bring into it. Seven Day Sleep’s style for this single appeals to me and I think others will enjoy it as well. The music video they have with the single is fun to watch as well. All the way around a nicely packaged single. Their EP A Home For Disgusting Fairies is due out on June 2 so keep an eye out on your digital vendors of choice. Until then enjoy Seven Day Sleep’s music video for “Red Lipstick Murders” – Richard:
Nozart is back and this time they are sharing with our listeners their single “Orphanage”. For fans of songs that are story based, which Logan and I are, “Orphanage” is made for you. The opening to this single itself feels like you are opening a book and getting ready to read a story. The simple rhythm and instruments give this single a fairy tale aspect. The vocals come through nice and clear and add to the story quality. It is a slower song, but the quality overcomes that. We are choosing to show the music video for “Orphanage” from Nozart’s YouTube channel. One because it is an animated video and we love animation here and two the animation for the music video makes it feel like you are reading a Neil Gaiman story made by Tim Burton. Props to Noah Kellman on a finely done song and music video. Here’s Nozart’s “Orphanage” music video – Richard:

Emma Charleston is back again sharing her latest release “Enjoy the Ride” from her Enjoy the Ride EP. With this single Emma slows the pace down with a piano intro and then builds to a crescendo and then back to a slower pace to begin the next verse. This piece is a contemplative single that reminds everyone to “Enjoy the Ride”. This single has the mix of pop/folk that works well for Emma that many will enjoy. Here’s Emma Charleston’s “Enjoy the Ride” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Farrah Mechael is sharing with our listeners her latest single “Be Here”, from her Farrah Please EP. “Be Here” sets squarely in the pop arena and with some of the choices of music style, with the instrumentals, it has an international feel. This international feel fits well since the lyrics mention ‘traveling around the world’. The single asks if someone’s significant other will be there if paths one takes has them traveling. You would think this would be a slow single, however the instrumentals and Farrah’s vocals give it that popping vibe. Here’s Farrah Mechael’s “Be Here” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Rhythm and Blues listeners rejoice! You have a new single that delivers a strong entry into the genre in Marcus Paul James’ “Living in Dreams”. The single is from his EP Paper Hearts and if the rest of the EP is like this single it will be a beautiful addition to your music collections. Marcus has that powerful lower range voice that resonates through the whole single. The instrumentals with the single lend a heaviness to the single that takes the listener on a complete journey. Take some time and enjoy Marcus Paul James’ “Living in Dreams” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Rebecca Raw has just released her EP Deep Within and she wants to share with our listeners her single “Connection” from the EP. Rebecca has a very nice clear voice that she spotlights in this single well. The style for “Connection” is, to me, a pop/folk feel. The build-up she has in “Connection” hits right on point, almost like a wave washing over you and then she slows it back down to finish the single. I enjoyed this single and can’t wait to her what else she has on her EP. So be sure to check your digital vendor of choice to look for her EP Deep Within. Until then here’s Rebecca Raw’s single “Connection” through SoundCloud for you to enjoy – Richard:
