Danica Bryant - Single Review: Ready To Bite
I'm loving this dynamic pop explosion from Danica Bryant! The
rock edge is really working for you, girl! I may be a little biased, however, being
a bit of a rock chick myself. Great hook, excellent production, this is a very commercial
number that should certainly turn some heads and receive some well-deserved
airplay.
Bryant clearly understands music and knows how to craft a good track, carefully working the space to formulate the structure and dynamics throughout. The intro is cool and captivating, the outro has clever impact, and everything in between is punchy and clean.
Ready To Bite’s slamming chorus showcases Bryant’s sassy vocal style, cutting and classic, and with plenty of ‘bite’.
Dropping into the bridge is floaty and spacious, with a modern, current feel; the classic pop elements creating just enough connection to the music we’ve grown up with and loved. It’s that familiarity which makes this track so relatable and palatable, and that’s what pop is all about. Bryant has 100% nailed it.
The final chorus is nothing short of fierce; a vibrant energy and strength emanating through the airwaves, a frequency of staunch determination, a celebration of inner power.
An excellent track from start to finish, and I’m super excited and happy for you. Congratulations, and well done on all your hard work and future success!

Thomas Powers - Album Review: A Tyrant Crying In Private
01 Jun 2024 // by Cathy Elizabeth
This stunning 14-track debut solo album from Thomas Powers, of The Naked and Famous fame; A Tyrant Crying in Private is intense yet delicate, holding sadness and beauty in equal measure, deliciously gorgeous in all its glitched and distorted goodness. Parts of the album feel very heavy emotionally, particularly the neo-classical instrumental pieces, which have a vast cinematic effect.

Ha the Unclear - Album Review: A Kingdom In A Cul-De-Sac
25 Apr 2024 // by Cathy Elizabeth
If I could choose one word to sum up Ha The Unclear’s recent album release I would have to go with the word “inspiring”. And if I could throw a few more together in a kind of haphazard stream-of-consciousness way, I would add that A Kingdom In A Cul-De-Sac is oozing with creativity, quirky humour, plumbing the depths of musical understanding, and coming back up to the surface with a gift - permission to be one’s authentic self.

day13n - Single Review: PA1N x SAG3
11 Jul 2023 // by Cathy Elizabeth
Listening to Day13n’s new single PA1N x SAG3 is the stuff of nightmares, with a dark and edgy musicality underpinning the intensely whisper-screamed lyrics. The song is divided into two halves, which nicely illustrates the forces of duality that are at play in the mind of the artist.

30 May 2023 // by Cathy Elizabeth
It’s been a good while since I’ve been to a gig at Meow, Wellington, so the first thing I do is weave my way through the growing crowd to get a good look at the size and layout of the stage. It’s nicely raised and fairly spacious, more spacious than I remembered actually!
