Frank Bell - "Home" live at Rockwood Music Hall by Frank Bell
Lovely, captivating, intense. I really enjoyed this beautiful performance.

This is great - the low voice is fab - just a hint of husky - and something faintly Skandi in there too. Love the way it builds - although I could do with the pace picking up more in the middle and really kicking the tempo. A bit too much of the ballad in the passage before the rap. Givens is a given - I'd like it to get to the manic build quicker. Sweet trail out - like the little alien voice - maybe have it peep in once or twice earlier?

Good Morning by Anaamaly
Great mellow beats, I like the good morning sample - could hear it again.

Bungalow by Dr. Sounds
This is completely fine, but feels very bland. The tabla is a lovely touch but you really need to develop this more and do something more interesting with it. It just sounds like the kind of music someone might play in a cheap tandoori restaurant somewhere to mask the sounds of the kitchen. It could be much more interesting than that.

VIIV.TV | AWAKENING by ayesha mathews
Great attractor video - not sure what the product or service is but I'm already attracted in by something that is at once familiar and unrecognised. As a man watching this, I saw the power of invoking the female economy and rather than feeling undermined or threatened by it, this feels new and exciting. Great work, great teaser. Now we want to watch VIIV.TV before we even know what's on it. As a vehicle to carry branding and attract a particular kind of advertising, this channel has established its credentials ahead of its content - novel.

So Much (pre-release single) by Social Station
Very enjoyable, slightly retro sounding jangly guitars and bowie-esque vocals - I'm also hearing a slightly Robert Smith of the Cure type sob in there somewhere... There's a little mushiness some where in the back and rhythm section that could get a little more spaced out and opened up in the mix to give it an even more crystalline sound.

Great matching of the video to the music. Loved the jazz melancholia retro loop that just keeps pulling the track back into its groove and then the wonderland lounge string section just lifts it. I would have liked a little more musical development. The stop animation has a kind of tender but epic feel to it. Great!
