Boardgames for Blondes - Album Review: On The Run
I found the band Boardgames for Blondes to be a natural sounding band, as opposed to modern day electronic music. The majority of the lyrics are actually understandable, unlike some other modern pop songs out there. The vocals are mainly performed by Michele Webb and Andrew Groom, and having both female and male vocals adds a good element to their songs.
Their debut album On The Run features eight tracks.
I found most of the songs were slow and quiet. The fourth track Let's Go is a little faster than the others - although, you may want to skip this song if you're sensitive about people having heart attacks.
Some songs, such as Let's Go, have the standard repetition that you come to expect from pop songs, but ultimately this isn't a bad thing.
Boardgames for Blondes have a mix of upbeat and saddish songs. which are not preachy or political. If this is the sort of music that interests you, then it's likely that this band will appeal to you.
Closing track Say Something is definitely not an upbeat song. It is about the time in your relationship where your partner won't talk to you. I can relate to this, not from personal experience, but I've been around couples who have experienced this.
The song On The Run has amusing lyrics. I really liked this song, because the lyrics are a bit cheeky. I found the lyrics for By Your Side quite amusing, too.
I generally like the rhythms of each of the songs. I think this is good music for relaxing to.
I am quite curious to see what music they put out in future, as they definitely have some good tracks. I particularly liked both On The Run and By Your Side.

Ant Tarrant - Album Review: Beachtopia
10 May 2024 // by djnamehere
I assumed that the album Beachtopia by Ant Tarrant would have a tropical pop feel to it, and this was pretty accurate. This seemed to be an upbeat and love themed EP.

As you can probably tell, That's Camp by Ardon England would most appeal to LBGTQA+ listeners. This is a six track EP.

I found Ghost Score's new EP 00 to have a variety of sound. Even though, this was a four track EP, some of the tracks sounded quite different to each other.

03 Feb 2024 // by djnamehere
Ivy Christchurch show opened with Ragweed and closed with a DJ duo playing house tracks. Ragweed was more of a head bangy set.

Moofish - Album Review: Entropia
08 Dec 2023 // by djnamehere
The music that is on Moofish's newest album Entropia consists of slow songs. Honestly, I couldn't really understand most of the lyrics, but that is not rare with music these days.
