Omega Levine - Single Review: Stay Connected Ft. Zonny

07 Feb 2018 // A review by ShelleySketch

Listening to the first 10 seconds, you don’t really know what type of track this is going to be. But then the music and Omega’s vocals kick in and it’s a nice surprise. The musical composition works well, and nothing feels out of place. Stay Connected is uncomplicated and has a smooth bass flow throughout the track. Zonny doesn’t seem to falter and his words flow effortlessly to accompany the track. With the simple and few repetitive chorus lines, this is a track people can sing-a-long to as well.

This is the type of track that would probably be played on a nice summers day, relaxing in a bar or on a road trip. There’s definitely something about Stay Connected that also makes this really feel like it has come from New Zealand. The combination of Omega’s singing and Zonny’s raps allow you to relax and also vibe out at the same time. With Omega’s recent performance at Rhythm & Vines, as well as the release and success of his recent single Clouds, he is definitely an artist to keep an eye on.

5/5 stars

About Omega Levine

Omega Levine has started releasing solo material, after taking some time away from the spotlight.

After singing vocals with Parachute Band, Levine has slowly been crafting new music with a range of local producers.

He’s released a couple of new jams on his Soundcloud page; a short interlude called Tragedy which was produced by Pete Wood, and a song called Chasing which was produced by Havvks.

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.

Gig Review: Alien Weaponry @ Galatos, Auckland - 02/06/2018
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.

03 Jun 2018 // by ShelleySketch
In his first release since Volume II in 2107, Seth Haapu returns with his beautiful new singe New Wave. I’ve noticed Seth sticks to a theme of nature that has been a part of his previous releases and is a part of who he is.

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.

As part of NZ Music Month, Auckland local Josh Leys played an intimate show at Mt Eden Village Centre. The atmosphere made me feel a bit like I was at a school dance.
