Jesse R.S. - Play

The zombie apocalypse is upon us! This video had me scratching my head at first as I failed to make the connection between a love song and a zombie woman until the end where it became apparent that a sacrifice of true love was made (watch to see). Jesse R.S. seems to be a more enigmatic artist than others that I've seen. His website doesn't lend much in terms of a biography so I can't say exactly where he's from or what he's about. His music is an easy listen that's appropriate for all ages. It's almost folksy with a touch of Pop and a bit of Rock thrown in for good measure. "Play" will latch onto your brain like a hungry zombie and stick inside your head all day if you're not careful. I'd like to know more about this Artist and seeing as how his music is growing in popularity online, chances are we will all be getting to know this artist very soon.

Bella Bizelle - Fanbo



Bella Bizelle from Ann Arbor, Michigan is our next submission. Her music is very club friendly it offers a lot of variety. Her song, "Fanbo" is a repetitive, uptempo dance song with low bass lines reminiscent of early 90's dance music with a touch of late 90's Detroit techno. The song's lyrics are simple and express a young woman's desire for her certain love interest. Simple songs like this usually play well on Top 40 radio but fail to stick around for long in the collective conscious of the type of people that consume this sort of music. It's good music if you're a girl in the ages of 12-24, which isn't exactly a bad demographic to appeal to. I see a lot of potential in Bella Bizelle and we should all expect to be seeing a lot more from this Michigan girl in the future.
