Many moons ago, when I originally set up the Inde Net Label Atom Sounds, I did several reviews of the artists on the label, so I thought I would bring you a review that I posted up of the album See The Light by Bob Evans.

Those needing some culture will certainly find it on Bob’s album “See the Light”, with great guitar work and soothing beats to some nice rock/country sounding tracks.

Now I will openly admit that upon first hearing the title track “See the Light” on the Atom Sounds CD, I thought to myself, here is an artist that has a god given talent and that talent is Bob’s vocals tied into some amazing guitar work.

“See the Light” consists of twelve tracks and each track on the album has that Bob Evans feel, but at the same time each track is different from the next, a change these days. The CD opens with the immensely toe tapping title track “See the Light” and from that point on it just gets better.

It certainly seems that my blog is getting some interesting CDs and downloads of some music lately and this latest addition to land in my mail box is from 18-year-old Oxford-based singer-songwriter Adam Barnes.

Adam Barnes: Blisters EPAdam has a wonderful voice and one which flows wonderfully with the acoustic instruments that accompany him on this six track EP. This release has a wonderful overtone of folk-pop and for anyone that is looking for something that has such a wonderful collection of well written lyrics and well produced music, then you can’t really go wrong.

I do have a range of musical tastes, but, since doing some of these music reviews here on Blazing Minds, I have discovered some genres that I may not have listened to before and this EP would probably have been one, or maybe not ;)

This has been one of those music reviews where I’ve enjoyed every single track on the Blisters EP, right the first track “Old Shoes” through “Come Undone” and then the up-tempo “If I Was A Lonely Man” slowing down for “We Can Only Sleep“, then a change for “Procession” and finally finishing off the EP with the track “Lighthouse“.

The Blisters EP is very well put together and is very enjoyable to listen to, it is certainly one of those EPs that I could listen to over and over again, it’s quite inspiring to know that in this musical world of computer composed music that there is still room for wonderfully written music that has heart to it and this is one of those releases. I’ve really enjoyed listening to Adam Barnes for this music review and I think you may enjoy it as well.

You can check out Adam Barnes on his official website as well as on Twitter @mradambarnes, Facebook, MySpace and Tumblr. Also you can get your hands on the Blisters EP from BandCamp and iTunes.

Those of you who do read my blog will know that I do like doing music reviews and this time I got the opportunity to review the latest album from electronica genius Northcape.

I’ve been a fan of the wonderful sounds of Northcape for many years so when the new album,  Captured From Static, dropped through my letterbox, I just couldn’t wait to get it out of it’s wrapping and into my CD player, as with the earlier Northcape release this one is no exception with it’s sound production and sleeve design, the album is what I’ve come to expect with relaxing electronic tracks that just beg for more plays, which it has got since I’ve added it on my iPod ;)

Now most of those that know me will know I’m a big fan of music, I even dabble in electronica music myself, so when I found out that Davidoth was releasing a new album I jumped at the chance to get a copy of it..

Davidoth is an Experimental Electronica band formed early 2000 in Warwick, Rhode Island USA. The band is led by its main Composer / Producer David Radcliffe who often switches between band members session by session with the only consistent member to date being Ed Anton.
