The Artist Review:

"Train Ride"

So cool, this is electronica music at its best, I can tell right off the bat, I'm excited to listen to more!! The way this song starts out is very mystical and enthralling. I can picture myself boarding the train then looking out the window as it takes off. This is seriously really good. You need to try really hard to sell this stuff... for movies, or something! After the faster beginning it slows down into and mellow, peaceful train ride, and it is just inspiring to listen to. The strings are so full and the added "music box" sound on top of it makes it even more emotional. You've paid attention to detail with this, even having the train's announcer in the background muffled, AWESOME!!! Then a string like guitar sound comes in with the strings in the background, it doesn't get any better than this people!

"Ocean Sigh"

Well, I could get this one or "Comfortable Weak" to stream or download... you might want to contact SoundClick about that., But, I'll go on the the next song, it works.

"Rubbing Shoulders"

ahhh, yes!! Acoustic guitar sounds! This is beautiful!! You are able to create such amazing beautiful works of art, it baffles me. The melody is so soothing, and relaxing on this song. I was stressed out, but, not anymore!! Theres a faster picking part on the guitar sounding instrument that is really cool and fun to listen to!! This proves you arent a one hit wonder, you've got a variety of great songs. Once again, I wouldn't change anything, you are making this review job very easy!

"Pond Life"

Alright, man, I like this song a lot. I think its the beat, I like things with a good beat! And I also like things with a catchy melody and this has it the piano part that is played over and over is very catchy and groovy! I'm bringing back the 70s with that groovy comment! Then you totally bring it over the top and force me to give you all 10s for your rating because of the fast piano part at about 3:15ish in this song... GREAT, then the drums kick back in, and you are left sitting here bobbing your head and tapping your feet thinking, "wow!"

************************************************

And now its time for a break down:

This artist is worth checking out and I have already recommended this artist to many of my friends. The music is pure art, and tells a story that you can vividly see while you listen. The melodies are catchy, and the beats never drop and the strings and piano parts are simply beautiful! If I were this artist I would change nothing and if I were a music producer or movie producer I would definitly be checking out this music because this is some of the best music I have reviewed here at
/w/e/ /reviews/. In fact, honestly, I don't even like electronica that much, BUT I LOVED THIS, I'm RAVING about it!! I did have trouble listening to THREE of the songs though, I tried and tried, but soundclick must be having server problems, but what I did listen to ROCKED!

Finny's "Ocean Sigh" Review
Ahhh, the whole less is more approach. Love it. Heard the whales, heard the waves.. and right now I'm at 5:00 and I feel like I'm just floating in the ocean. Wonderful job, I'm a very image-oriented person naturally and this song just floods me with imagery and emotion.

There's really nothing wrong with this song, songs like this are the hardest to critique because they're so open ended and so many possibilities. All you can really say is, it sounds good.. or it sounds bad. This, sounds very good.

On a scale from 1 to 10...

Lyrics - n/a

Music - 9.

Melodies - n/a - i think the music category covers this one.

Title - 10. Bingo.

Structure - 9. Wonderful transitions, just very enjoyable.

Marketability - 7. Would be great for an easy listening CD and certain snippets would do well as backdrop for cinema.

Emotional Response - 9. put me in a trance.

Overall - 10. Love it, you're on the station.
