Allie Millstein - Human Nature

This is a cd by Hartford, Connecticut native Allie Millstein. She sings acoustic indie folk music. She has very unique vocal and guitar melodies, and they sound like an angel has descended from heaven just to sing us a song.

This EP opens up with the song "Human Nature" that just makes you grin. You just start listening to it and your mouth just slowly forms a smile. Its amazingly catchy, and I keep finding myself taping out the beat. The next song, "Mend My Heart", sounds like something from the Juno soundtrack. Its pretty chill and upbeat plus its got some cool lyrics along with its rhythmic vibe.

After "Mend my Heart" come "Our Love Is Underground". Its similar to Human Nature in that you keep involuntarily tapping out the beat. Really catchy stuff. The last song, "Skeletons", has a more mournful vibe to it but remains beautiful.

This is just a great CD, and you really should give it a listen. Allie Millstein sounds amazing, and if you like acoustic folk things then you'll love this. She was also cool enough to provide our blog with a physical copy of her CD, so props to her for that.

Allie Millstein - Human Nature

Mrevaaaaa - THIS SODA. IT'S SO AMAZING.

This album is a diverse array of genres from 17 year old Tom Brennan that goes by Mrevaaaaa(Not pronounced Mr.). The first song I listened to was track 3 "You make me feel..." and I was entirely impressed. The beats are well put together and it somehow got stuck in my head for a couple days. The album itself seems to make fun of music taking influences from Math The Band and Bomb The Music Industry! Lyrically, it's part teen angst, part satire, part music you write for a girl. Deep down though, I think the kid's just having fun and writing music he can play for his friends. A quick note that in the zip file there are two versions of "You Make Me Feel..." and a track by "Vernon Kings" which I think is his rap group whatever you call it. I don't really know.

Math The Band - Math the Band Banned the Math

Math The Band is super electro fun using sampled casio sk1 drums paired with a hyper and sometimes random lyricist. Kevin sings about all the best things including dinosaurs, robots, and sharks(Happy shark week by the way!) and Justine plays keyboard and makes beats and such. This album will GET YOU PUMPED sounding much like and almost always compared to Atom and His Package yet mixed with Bomb The Music Industry. I listened to this album at two in the morning, and I physically had trouble sleeping afterwords. It is impossible not to dance to this band.
