"Arcane" by ZAYNE

 "Arcane" by Zayne is simply perfection.  The overall vibe of the beat is exactly
what is needed and wanted.  This is a track that you can zone out to & actually
put it on repeat a few times as well.  I'm looking forward to hearing more from Zayne
in the future.  Especially if this is the lane that some of the tracks will be in.
The only problem I have with this track is that I wish it was longer because it's so
good.  All in all, this is very dope!!!

Karl Mccann with something new and creative

 Karl McCann pops off the self titled album track "Eleven. The vibe of the song is smooth, the keys are sultry & the strings blends well with the vocals. The next track "Sorry" is full of emotion & its almost like you can hear the remorse in Karl's voice. From the first few seconds of "Dust" I already knew I would like it. I like the vocal arrangements & overall feel of the song. Karl captures my ear on "Because I'm pure", this is one of the songs you can actually feel when you listen to it. I also like "The surface", the musical instrumentation of this song is refreshing. "Kos" is a different feeling from everything in the project & is a solid way to end this eccentric project.

Ghost in the doorway is something special

 Ghost in the doorway by Marshmellow Overcoat is something special. The project pops off with "You've just gotta believe me" & this song feels good. The amazing vocals, the drums, and the overall feel of this song is amazing. I can hear me out riding in my car with this on repeat or maybe even out at a bar singing my heart out. The guitar & the drums on "Ghost in the doorway" are top tier and this is another grooving song. "Cried at the rain" is another one on this project that I truly enjoyed. Marshmellow Overcoat takes it to another level with this song right here. "Realize what is under your control", those words alone capture me on the title track "Realize". This is one of the ones you will have on repeat for sure. Can I get some peace of mind? I love it! This song right here might just be the soundtrack of the year. We all need a peace of mind. "Get it all out" reminds me of something I would hear as a kid growing up. It's some of that feel good music with amazing instrumentation. "Never wanted it to be this way" is one of those songs where I feel like the lyrics will touch your soul if you really listen to it. "Tide's High" opens up with the piano & you can tell its going to be something special as the last track on the project. This is the perfect ending to an extremely fantastic project that I feel like anyone can enjoy. Marshmellow Overcoat delivers an amazing project.

Derek Lee Goodreid "The Love" is everything you need & more

"The Love" album Derek Lee Goodreid opens up with the uptempo "The Shakes" which is a bright opener that got me excited for the rest of the project. "Devil's Due" makes me want to get dressed, spray on some good cologne, & head to the local bar for a night of good fun. This is a standout track on the 11 song album that i'm sure almost everyone will repeat. The way that guitar comes in on "Road of bones" is good for the soul & I love it. "Sinners Prayer" starts off with what could be a warrior chant & it's something different from most of the tracks & variety is always good in my opinon. "The love" is one of those tracks that I would say is short and sweet, but a piece of me wishes it was longer. "Gone for good" is very groovy & it feels good. I'm a real big on a song feeling good & if a song feels good then i'm almost guaranteed to play it more than once. "Gonna shout it from the rooftops honey, gonna howl at the moon, cause baby i'm a fool for you", this "Howl at the moon" track is my favorite on the project & it has so much soul. The dope guitar solo in the middle of the song, to the lyrics, to the emotion of the song "& I can't scratch this itch, cause bitch I still love you"...the vibe alone of this song is the perfect ending to very solid project that i'm glad I ran across. Derek Lee G. is worthy of a listen.

A Novel Way to Spend an Hour" by Dr. Optimiser

The experimentational instrumentation of "A Novel Way to Spend an Hour" by Dr. Optimiser is something the world needs to hear. The build-up of the lead track "Enter Transmission" puts me in a trance & gives me a feeling of what's to come with this 12 song, project. I absoutely love the vibe on "Standing on houses", the beat is addictive & Zoe Maria handles the vocals & does a wonderful job. The eclectic sounds of "True" is also one of my favorites on the project. "Endomorph" has a sneaky-bounce feel to it that I certainly won't get tired of. This track right here feels good & I like the placement of it on the project right after "Inroads". The production on "Ghost lights" is out of this world. This song features Pale Pink & is one of the ones you will have to play on repeat. If you're looking for great production and some superb vocals every now and again, then this is a must-have for you.
This project "Blue by T. Ledger" is very eccentric, odd, refreshing, & very tasteful. The guitar licks & the free-will of the project is very satisying. My favorite on the entire project is "Freestyle SInging" the rawness of it is amazing & it feels good. Also the "Woweed Instrumental" is also pretty dope & it sounds excellent in my car. This is a very instrumentational album & full of eclectic sounds. Overall I like the spontaneity of the album which is always great to hear these days when most projects sounds almost the same these days. Any fan of guitar players or just a creative then this is something that you need to check out. Do not go into the project expecting the same regular tracks you hear on the radio, this is something different, something new, & something magnificent.
