Spring is getting closer and Joelina Drews is delivering a fresh song for the season with “Drive”. The single has a nice easy flow to it and Joelina’s voice carries your through the song for a smooth ride. Golden G is featured in the single roughly two thirds of the way through. The lyric video shows what looks like a nice spring or summer day where the couple is just enjoying their time. All around enjoyable single and video. Here’s Joelina Drews’ lyric video “Drive” through her YouTube channel – Richard:

Well the new incarnation for Power Rangers is on it’s way and if the rumors are true and it sounds like they are then this version of Power Rangers will be new. How you may ask? It has been heard that the new Rangers will be adult’s and based around a spy network. Okay, might be kind of cool. So get ready for Power Rangers: Beast Morphers by checking out the trailer that Neo-Saban Power Rangers YouTube Channel has available. It looks like the trailer is pieced together footage from the original show, so it gives you an idea of what the adapted version will be like:
If you haven’t been to the store for a few weeks like us you haven’t seen that the release of Pokemon the Movie: I Choose You is out and ready to pick up for you collections. What are you waiting for you know you “gotta catch em’ all”. Thanks to Viz Media’s YouTube channel for the trailer:
Dia sets a late 1960’s to earlier 1970’s tone with her latest single “Valentine”. From the first heavy beat that softens with the verse and the guitar takes more center stage is very reminiscent of that era’s pop/folk sound. When the chorus comes back in the heavy drum beat hits you again. Throughout the single the central instruments shifts between drum and guitar, with the chorus and verse. The music video that was made for the single has the same late 1960’s – early 1970’s feel to it by using simulated old footage and possible even authentic old footage. This footage merges the video and single very well to transport the listener back to that time. Here’s Dia’s music video for “Valentine” through her YouTube channel – Richard:
For all of our listeners that love crime solving and cold cases, The Ruin by Dervla McTiernan might be for you. It begins with a death and then the case is brought back to interest 20 years later. Here’s the trailer for The Ruin through HarperCollins Publishers Australia YouTube Channel:
Warner Bros. Animation keeps coming out with interesting titles. Of course Batman is going to be the focus of most titles since he is the most bankable, but that doesn’t hurt my feelings since I’m a Batman fan. Anyway here’s the trailer to Batman Ninja through DC’s YouTube Channel:
DYGL is sharing with our listeners their music video for their single “Come Together”. This quartet is hitting us with a fun rock single. The single has an infectious beat to it that will get your head a bobbing and body a movin’. Really enjoyed this single from DYGL. The music video itself is a performance video, but it has some atmosphere to it with the haze and coloration that is used. If you are going to be at SXSW be sure to see them perform live. They have two performances planned: on March 15, they will be at Maggie Mae’s at 10 PM and then a second performance on March 17, at Esther’s Follies beginning at 12 AM. Here’s your taste of the groups sound with DYGL’s music video for “Come Together” through their YouTube channel – Richard:
Monster Hunter Stories Ride On Part 1, is the next season of Monster Hunter Stories from FUNimation. The animation done in this series is reminiscent of something you would see in Digimon and Pokemon. It looks geared for younger anime fans, but before you let younger fans watch you might check it out first just to be safe. It looks fun and with the mini-dragon concept I can see young fans eating this series up. Here’s the trailer through FUNimation’s YouTube channel:
