Janet Blair gives our listeners a chance to check out her single “Eternity Grows”. With this single Janet falls what I would say is a Pop/Folk music style. I enjoy how the piano is playing staccato for the verse. For me when music is played that way it makes me want to get into the music and have fun. When Janet hits the chorus the single takes on a fullness that has the listener taking off and soaring. I’m interested in what else she has planned.

Maggie McClure Will “Be Right Here For You”
Maggie McClure has hit my sweet spot with her single “Be Right Here For You”. This is just a fun catchy single that should get your foot to tapping and head to bobbing. I personally love these type of songs because of their uplifting rhythm and, as stated above, plain funness (yeah I know I created a word). Maggie’s work has been spotlighted on several television programs so you might have heard something of hers and not realize it. Her latest album is Time Moves On. I am definitely interested in hearing more from her to see if she keeps up the fun uplifting style. Enjoy Maggie McClure’s “Be Right Here For You” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Judge Roughneck’s Latest Single “The Girl”
Judge Roughneck is sharing with our listeners again, this time it is for their current single “The Girl”. Still enjoy the horns and reggae beat that Judge Roughneck gives us. In “The Girl” they have a smooth sound for the chorus that even calls into mind the beach songs of the day, while the verse is where you get the most reggae feel. A fun smooth sound to begin the coming of Spring and into the Summer beach music. Find that groove with Judge Roughneck’s “The Girl” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Among Criminals New Single “Patience and Regret”
Among Criminals is sharing their new single “Patience and Regret” from their upcoming album Kill the Precedent. With “Patience and Regret” I’m getting a 1970’s feel at the start, with the guitar section giving a Vietnam era vibe. When they get to the chorus they shift into a driven beat. Definitely a rock band with the rhythms hitting you with a steady stream. I’m looking forward to what else they will have on their album. Rock it out with Among Criminals’ “Patience and Regret” through SoundCloud and be sure to keep an eye out for their upcoming album Kill the Precedent – 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:
Vacances Single “Human”
Vacances is sharing with the ComicPop listeners his single “Human”. Vacances has with this single has that 1980’s style synth/pop going. When he first came in with the lyrics my mind went straight to a similar sound as Human League. Like most of these types of songs his voice is blending in with the instrumentals. This is a fine line that Vacances will have to watch. With “Human” he stays at the appropriate level of being right above the instrumentals. But with his softer voice he will have to watch the power of the instrumentals so they don’t over take his voice. Like I said though with “Human” it is working. So check out Vacances’ “Human” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Jetty Rae’s Single “Take Me To The Mountain”
Jetty Rae is sharing with our listeners her single “Take Me to the Mountain”. Jetty is playing with two different styles of music with this single. I definitely hear a country blend with the instrumentals, but they are slowed down and her singing the lyrics is dragged out like you would hear in a psychedelic single. This might be a little bit of a challenge for new listeners, but for individuals that enjoy the psychedelic feel will get into this single. For me liking more upbeat songs, this is a mood piece for me and when they mood hits it fits. Here’s Jetty Rae’s “Take Me to the Mountain” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Aria Wunderland’s Single “Coup D’etat
Aria Wunderland is sharing her single “Coup D’etat” with our listeners. I know that this is a politically charged single, but I’m not going to dwell on that aspect except to say that it doesn’t matter who has the reigns of authority they should always be questioned and have checks and balances. With that “Coup D’etat” has an unsettling rhythm to it that I believe Aria was going for to have the listener have a sense of unease. The vocals themselves are sometimes lost within the music with her singing at a level that is right at the same level as each other. Here’s Aria Wunderland’s single “Coup D’etat” through SoundCloud – Richard:
