I`m Goin`Under by Mind`s Eye

Jess Shanahan

That opening guitar is fierce. Great vocals too and really catchy. This will be stuck in my head for the rest of the day. Thank you!

Tears by Jackson-X

Jess Shanahan

The dramatic start didn't prepare me for the great vocals or funky music. Great song with a fantastic beat that I will definitely be listening to again.

Montego Ft. Veda by Saxton

Jess Shanahan

Not the usual kind of music I'd listen to but it's nicely melodic with a good beat. I can see people dancing to this on a beach somewhere.

Alison by memoryfield (featuring Iris)

Jess Shanahan

Beautiful vocals and great video that's really representative of the era while having a touch of silliness to it.

Blue Umbrella animation music video by Curious Grace

Jess Shanahan

I love the mix of animation styles in the video and the use of different artworks is great to. The song itself started off a little slow and I wasn't sure I was going to like it but when the vocals picked up it turned into a really fun pop song. The vocals reminded me of The Beautiful South with a more lively twist to the music in the background.

A very catchy song.

I Want To Know by Robot Garden

Jess Shanahan

Really interesting video and social commentary. As someone who spends a lot of time on social media (for both work and in my personal life), this makes so much sense to me.

Considering this was done with no budget, it works really well. You get a great sense of the story and message behind it all. The song is great too, very catchy and will no doubt inspire the over-use of hashtags.

IF YOU ONLY KNEW - FILM NOIR VIDEO by Claus Zinger

Jess Shanahan

Good track, perhaps a little repetitive in places, but the kind of music that sends a shiver down your spine -  especially when combined with such a harrowing music video. The story is easy to follow with some serious emotion coming through the vocals.

I love a music video with a twist. Will share on social media.

In The Moment by The Parades

Jess Shanahan

Catchy and fun. The video itself is okay but I was blown away by the music. Love the vocals and the poppy-funk vibe. This was a great way to start the morning, the high-energy of the music has definitely got me feeling motivated! Will share this.
