Electric Treatment Free By Electric Treatment Free Brings Electronic Elements & Fusion In Newly Released Album

14 Sep

Electric Treatment Free by Electric Treatment Free starts off in a very lighthearted way with the sounds of the keyboard and electronic elements. Throughout the album, the ups and downs of the music sounds like they are coming from another universe. Audio clips integrated into the music creates intentional chaos and feelings of happiness where it belongs. To a listener this seems a little bit hard to interpret, but the piecing together makes it feel like the sporadicness is needed to make sure everything connects. Electric Treatment fuses a mixture as well of musical sounds that are strong on their own and cranks it up a notch within their album. Hearing double synths, revved up guitar playing, and sounds that are lingering a bit longer all come into play on the album. Without a doubt, Electric Treatment keeps the listener’s ears and brain excited to what they are listening to and puts more weight into the creative masterpiece.

Sarah Schonert Channels A Level of Female Shero In Songs About Sounds

6 Dec

If the title does not give away the emotions I have towards Schonert’s music, the term Shero epitomizes me viewing her music as not only heroic, but inspirational for 2019. Take one listen to Sarah Schonert’s music and it takes you to another world. A world where you don’t know if its all imaginative or in another universe. The most noticeable thing listeners will pick up on when listening to her music is that it sounds like a mixture of new age post Sonic Youth music stylistically mixed with space rock, characterized by the textures and tone variety one hears in her instrumental style. Different voice tracks, variety of instrumentals of piano and reverbs, and a variety in her vocal delivery makes the album an interesting one to listen to from start to finish. Similar bands that have used such synth and sampling of vintage sounds include Math The Band, Of Montreal, and even mainstream influences such as Justice. Throughout the album, her music showcases almost a stream of conciousness mixed with her creative exploration of her voice and lyrics across tracks. In a digital age where over editing and heavy autotuning is used amongst musicians, its refreshing to listen to a musician who approaches their music making in a very raw and original way.

Journey To The Centre of Yourself Showcases A Chronological Story

1 Nov

Most people have online archives documenting their teenage angst and coming of age stories, but H! documents alot of his through Journey To The Centre of Yourself. A song on this album that stands out is Chasing What You Don’t Want and Life’s Too Short. Chasing What You Don’t Want goes over heartbreak, but keeps it in a matter of fact way, rather than telling too much of a melancholy tale. Life’s Too Short is not only an emotional track, but one that promotes hope through life’s struggles. The electronic tune in the background of this song adds even more layers to the musical scenery. “These are the words that I’d go back and tell myself don’t let go and savor every breath you take along the way”. This packs an inspirational punch in light of being trapped and struggling through certain periods of your life. Alongside the creative license H! takes in constructing his music, his album cover of storyboard frames he illustrates gives listeners a new level of seeing an artist connect to their work.
