KILOFRAX "TRAVELING" REVIEW

April 29, 2021 by Eric Martin in Album Review

Traveling truly feels like a trailblazer in both native sampling and creative instrumentation. The duo’s incorporation of vocal melodies, intimate recordings, and unique rhythm patterns makes the project feel both curated and sequential when listened to in its entirety. Clocking in at five tracks totaling 15 minutes in length, the personalities behind the EP, Ash Wood and Miles Irwin, leave no room for filler as they swiftly bend the sounds of our world to create their own.

KPT "BIG WITCH" REVIEW

September 01, 2020 by Andrew Perrizo in Album Review

Listening to this album altogether is like being on a claustrophobic rollercoaster ride through a haunted mansion, passing by sections going downhill at rapid speed like you’re on the river in Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, as well as being forced to pass by slowly and watch a disturbing scene unfold.

GRAYBEAT "ELEMENTAL RHAPSODY" REVIEW

July 10, 2020 by Andrew Perrizo in Album Review

GrayBeat returns on his first full length album, Elemental Rhapsody, which continues the saga that began on the Whaelstrom EP. Elemental Rhapsody is best experienced in full, each song introducing a new idea and expanding on it fully. You are taken through the life of Graylien, the Astrarian from Xul, as he goes on his adventure, experiencing the unknown that lies ahead.
