CHILLFILTR (46 KP) rated The Man in the Hammock by Alec Todd in Music
Jul 11, 2019
Alec Todd is a young songwriter from Utrecht in the Netherlands. I like him because he takes risks; the Dutch call it G-Funk.
“Utrecht songwriter releases his 2nd single ‘We’ll Never Forget’. With Helena van der Veen in the lead, the single-inspired G-funk is presented in an emotional lyrical video clip. In the video you can see how Helena gets emotional. The role of Helena tells the real emotion behind the cheerful single.
At the beginning of 2017, Alec Todd decided to join up with Roy van Rosendaal to record his concept EP ‘The Man in the Hammock’;
’We’ll Never Forget’ is the second single from this EP.”

This song of his is a favorite right now. I keep wanting to hear it again. Seems like no one has really discovered it yet because it has almost no plays. Enjoy!

Russ Troutt (291 KP) rated Blaze (2018) in Movies
Jun 28, 2019
Watched what is definitely one of my favorite movies of the year so far recently, unfortunately it was on a little screen on my flight back to Hawaii. Name of the movie is Blaze, written and directed by Ethan Hawke, and is based on the outlaw country singer and songwriter legend Blaze Foley. If you don't add this to your watch list then I'll have to have Deputy Dawg throw you in movie jail.

Eric (498 KP) rated Why Me? Why Not. by Liam Gallagher in Music
Sep 4, 2020
Solid sophmore effort from Liam Gallagher
This is a solid album that falls under the singer/songwriter genre. Basic adilt contemporary sound with each song being well constructed. While the whole album is an easy listen, only 2 songs standout for me Shockwave, which opens the album with a catchy hook, and Halo which is a bit more upbeat and cheerful than the rest of an album.
It gets lost in the sea of hundreds albums like this, but a good effort and worth it for fans of Gallagher and Oasis

CHILLFILTR (46 KP) rated Swallow by Ben Reneer in Music
Jul 11, 2019
Ben Reneer reminds us a bit of Joel Levi but with a more washy vibe and one of those laser falsettos. The lyrics are thick and the message is simple: love endures. It tortures and redeems our own motivations for living.
“Have you sold your wisdom for glory
will you let me sell mine for youth
now you whisper the journey’s not over
I rattle my cage on the edge of the truth”
— Ben Reneer
Tag this one as Ryan Adams underwater.
Ben Reneer comes to us from Alpine, Utah. He considers himself more songwriter than singer but we beg to differ.

CHILLFILTR (46 KP) rated Right Direction by Benjamin Lazar Davis in Music
Jul 11, 2019
This is Beck, circa Sea Change, but with a boxier mix and these lo-fi drums that sound like old sneakers. The songwriting is top notch. This track will resonate with anyone who has had to walk through the darkness. That's always the question: am I doing this right?
Davis got his start in New York City as a multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and producer. We like where he's going with this:
“Fade out but the lights are still glowing
tell me where to go
how long will I run without knowing
if I’m running in the right direction...”
