It probably comes by no surprise that I think The Chainsmokers are very overrated. They were very lucky that “Closer” took off the way it did and ever since then they have tried to re-create that magic. It’s becoming kind of predictable. But lucky for them their new single “Paris” is just as catchy and…

SINGLE REVIEW: Snakehips feat. MO – Don’t Leave
So we may only be in the first week of 2017 but I think Snakehips and MO have just released a track that will be featured in my Top 10 songs of the year. I know it’s a big call but this is a BIG song. “Don’t Leave” is a perfect collision of heartbreak, flawless…
SINGLE REVIEW: Ed Sheeran – Castle On The Hill
Ed Sheeran has always had minimalistic production using loop pedals to create a bigger sound. But on his second promotional single from his forthcoming third studio album we hear him taking a bit of a risk. Think of “Castle On The Hill” as a result if Mumford And Sons and Ed Sheeran had a musical…

EP REVIEW: Twenty One Pilots – TOPxMM
“Blurryface” seems to be a never-ending album cycle for Twenty One Pilots with the band onto their third tour and no word yet on a fifth studio album. But to tie fans over for a little bit longer they have just released an experimental EP with fellow tour mates Mutemath. The concept for “TOPxMM” was…

2016 has been a quiet year for Pia Mia as she’s been slaving away in the studio while we have been deprived of new music from the songstress until now. Sneaking in one cheeky new single before the end of the year Pia delivers another slow RNB jam that will have you rejoicing. “We Should…
EP REVIEW: Pia Toscano – Belong
American Idol has had its fair share of robberies and one of those moments was when Pia Toscano was prematurely eliminated from the Top 9. Her powerhouse vocals offered a soul delivery that received a lot of comparisons to Jordin Sparks. Since her departure from the show in 2011 she has been working on her…
