Flamingo Cartel and DJ Taro – Red Jordans (feat. papa hooke)

Attachment_1631878555

Red Jordans is a new single from Flamingo Cartel and DJ Taro. This suave jam also features the talents of artist, Papa Hooke. Delivered with coy sensuality, the lyrics are catchy and repetitive in a way that makes the song instantly memorable, the first time you hear it. As the title implies, the iconic pair of classic shoes are the centerpiece of the track. With choice lines like “my Jordans are red as your lips,” you can’t really go wrong.

The vocal style juxtaposes nicely with the 80’s style synth-backing. The music really does have a nice “superball” bounce to it, with the vibe falling somewhere between a retro aerobics workout cassette tape or Miami Vice nightclub vibe. The aesthetic is accurately constructed making it very easy for listeners to recognize and appreciate the vision the artists had for this. Fun, relatable and well-made, Red Jordans is fresh in the best sense of the word.

Made for Her cover art

Made For Her is a brand new album from Shaun Johnson + Big Band Experience. This release is pretty slick to say the least. The music has a classic feel, blending a sophisticated old school lounge or “big band” sound with contemporary sensibilities. Regardless of what kind of music one is into, this is the sort of album that anyone would immediately recognize as superb. Well-choreographed instrumentals provide a worthy backdrop for Shaun Johnson’s skillfully delivered vocal harmonies. What a great voice. If I didn’t know any better, I would have assumed Made For Her was released on a major label. Yes, it’s that good. This is exquisite mood music that’s accessible, down to Earth and contains an enjoyability factor that’s off the charts. The songs from this album should be playing in every department store this fall.

Isabel And The Whispers – (Self Titled Album)

600x600bf-60

Isabel And The Whispers is a self-titled album from the band fronted by singer/songwriter, Isabel Marcheselli, with bandmates Alec Menge (drums) Octavio Padron (guitars) and Soils Minor (bass). Isabel was born in New York, but her parents were South American immigrants (her father actually worked as an engineer for NASA). It’s also worth mentioning that the songs on this release were all written by Isabel.

You get the idea right away with the opening track, Josefina. Colorfully dynamic melodies and sentimental, poetic lyrics drive the action against a loungy, piano-driven backdrop. The music has a very innocent and timeless feel. It reminds me a bit of Sergio Mendes and Brasil 66. The pacing is mellow, but the performances are as powerful as ever. Emotion lives in these songs. Isabel demonstrates terrific range as a vocalist, and her voice works well with the quaint, rhythmically atmospheric backing music to bring about a pure and delightfully haunting ambiance. The band is currently working on a new album, Isabel and The Whispers 2 – WANDER, which is slated to be released next year.

Josh Christina – Weekend Night In America

Josh Christina WNIA

Weekend Night In America is a new single from artist, Josh Christina. To say this music absolutely rules would be an understatement. Seriously, this is like authentic 1950s rock’n’roll with 21st century recording quality. Vibrant, upbeat and a loungy, the song has a kind of Jerry Lee Lewis/ Big Bopper energy. Josh Christina’s performance is lively and comes at you with a side of southern flair. He blends talent with taste and classic, soulful style. Few artists can put out material that is on par with the quality of their musical influences, but Josh Christina has done just that, and if he had been born in another time, would likely have been performing right along side them. This isn’t a purely retro work though or homage. The song creatively incorporates synths and other modern elements, establishing that Josh has his own distinctive style and isn’t afraid of experimentation. An inspirational working class anthem, Weekend Night In America is easily one of the best songs of the year.

Survival is a new album from vocal harmony duo, Moors & McCumber. Blending elements of folk rock and Americana, the songs have a sentimental and humanistic quality. Against a mellow, melodic and minimalist musical backdrop, the vocal harmonies really do drive the action, functioning as a kind of spiritual center. These guys are both excellent singers and perform with an unmistakable sincerity, giving the listener an experience that’s as natural and real as it gets. I highly recommend watching the documentary on the making of this album, as it really goes into depth about Moors & McCumber’s motivations and the journey it took to make this release a reality. Survival is what you get when you combine musical professionalism and skill with a down to Earth setting. Folk at its finest.
