Marina Bloom and Moving Stuff - Single Review: This Feeling

07 Feb 2018 // A review by ShelleySketch

If you’ve heard of Marina Bloom and Moving Stuff before then this is not a track you would have expected. This is such an upbeat dance track which is different from the music she has previously released such as Seven Seas and Heroes. But it is a good surprise. You can’t help but bop and move along to the track as it is catchy and fun. This Feeling came out at the right time as it is definitely a track for summer.

It appears they have chosen a lot of different instruments and samples to use which at first seem a bit overdone, but then mix together well. Marina’s voice is nearly at the same level as the music and is autotuned but it works well with the music. When listening to this track with headphones I found the music plays between both ears. This Feeling made me think of a mix of a few artists such as Kesha, The Veronicas and David Guetta.

This new track also makes me feel like I’m at a club and I’m sure this is a track that DJs should add to their list. Marina Bloom and Moving Stuff seem to be branching out and I would say This Feeling is a good start.

4/5 stars

Times x Two - EP Review: Late Night Legacy
26 Jun 2018 // by ShelleySketch
Times x Two have been somewhat of a staple in the New Zealand festival scene for a while, but they have now stepped up and are showing NZ just how big they can be with the release of their new EP Late Night Legacy. The EP cover art is strong and regal, with Cader and Zee against a rich red background; somewhat of a reflection of the objective of the EP itself, as there are some solid tracks that are sure to blow up.

Thomston - Single & Video Review: Acid Rain
25 Jun 2018 // by ShelleySketch
Thomston has been rather absent from the public eye lately but decided to surprise us by releasing a new single and video for Acid Rain.  The single cover art has somewhat a very retro feel, thanks to the clothing choices of a metallic button up with cream pants used in the image.

05 Jun 2018 // by ShelleySketch
It’s a damp night, it was 8pm and the doors opened. The crowd began to pack in and I’ll admit there was more than I expected.

Mitch James - Single Review: 21
03 Jun 2018 // by ShelleySketch
With his most recent single release in 2017, Mitch James has returned with a beautiful acoustic track entitled 21. The music is a simple accompaniment of a piano and a guitar, with what sounds like a finger snap or clap.
