"Balumba Tombo revolution" by Various Artists (Pop Artist from Italy)

New from Italy's Pedale Baroque, "Balumba Tombo revolution" is another eclectic compilation of Pop and World Music artists and songs reflecting the wide-open scope of the unique project that produced '07's "Balumba Tombo reloaded." From the psych-inspired "Sea Child" by Danger, to the East-meets-West hybrid sound of Gandhi Goes to Bollywood's "Welcome to Legoland," the diversity of the 10 tracks blend perfectly to create a borderless pastiche of pure musicality. "Requiematic" by Maestro Poldo Catara dabbles in classical nuances, while CD-opener, "Distraction physique" by Bohemian Flambe, is straight-ahead rock with a decided French influence. Elsewhere, Frograssa's weird and unsettling "Frogs in frocks" and the ultra-'80's feel of Leonid Sdjalayev' "Eto niemoi film?" push the boundaries without sounding uncharacteristic or out of place. A CD for the musically adventurous, the "Balumba Tombo revolution" compilation is a provocative mix of styles and influences that will leave you wanting more from the compelling and innovative Pedale Baroque collective.

"Red Light, Green Light, Go" by Brett Perkins (Pop Artist from Denmark)

"Red Light, Green Light, Go" by Brett Perkins is an inspirational, easy listening Pop album. Each track delivers real instrumental, non-synthesized music with accurately harmonizing vocals. Greatly inspired by the work of The Beatles, "Red Light, Green Light, Go" does an exceptional job of combining the melodies of 60's pop with modern Americana guitars. The track "Figure It Out" has a perky, upbeat tempo and the chorus is probably the catchiest one of the entire album. The instrumentation on the track "I Won't Give Up On Love" matches the artist voice perfectly. Staying in the tenor range with a female vocalist accompanying him, this song is intricate in lyrics and musicianship. The Beatles have inspired many a great artist since the launch of their career and "Red Light, Green Light, Go" by Brett Perkins is a shining example of that.

"Unbroken" by Patrick DeGennaro (Pop/Rock Artist from New York City, New York(NY))

Patrick DeGennaro's latest album, "Unbroken," is an album recorded in an adult Pop/Rock fashion with songs that take from the Blues, Rock, and Jazz genres. "Standing Up Straight" is a toe-tapping blues song, in which groovy guitars and solid organ chords interact with Patrick's unique vocals. The song, "The Best of Me," is a slow moving ballad in which Patrick shares heartfelt feelings over sweet and soothing piano playing. Another song, "Let Me Be Your Eyes Again," is an adult contemporary song which uses a jittering beat in a song that takes from both the Blues and Jazz. This music works well for those who can appreciate an adult contemporary artist who makes their voice the central instrument around different types of musical styles. People who appreciate Billy Joel's slower songs would do best to check out Patrick DeGennaro's latest release "Unbroken."
