How the Right Music Can Push Those Nostalgic Buttons

So, I didn’t really care for the recent Power Rangers reunion episode, titled Power Rangers: Once & Always. Maybe I’ll share my reasons for this at some point in the future. However, I did enjoy the 2017 movie Power Rangers enough to do a re-edit of the film, which included restoring deleted scenes back into…

The Importance of a Good Music Score

So, before I re-visit the character of Finn in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, I figured I’d do a quick Music Choice video to show the importance of a solid piece of music during a passionate speech. You have to admit, Hux gets kind of emotional here, and the music only helps to push that…

Talking About Music Now

I had an idea to make a quick video about the music that we hear while watching movies. Sometimes, I feel like the music fits so extremely well, like Bill Conti's score in the Karate Kid films (especially Karate Kid III), Basil Poledouris' music in the 1982 film Conan the Barbarian, or any John Williams music to…

Ruelle

I can’t contain this anymore, I just can’t. I have to say how totally in love I am with the music of an artist currently known as Ruelle. I say “currently known” because, it seems, she once released songs under the name Maggie Eckford. How in love with her music am I? Let’s just say…

Epic Music Is Epic

Hey, if you need a musical pick-me-up or just want to hear some awesome orchestra tunes, check out the Epic Music VN channel over at YouTube. My advice is to subscribe and have their uploads sent directly to your email inbox. They usually send out one per day and it’s always an excellent track. If…

Aurora

Just as with Warpaint, Conan O’Brien has introduced me to Aurora, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Seriously, I’m not even going to say much more here. Just click that play button below, and then stop by her YouTube page and give the rest of her videos a look-see (there aren't very many). She is…

Halestorm

Have you ever stumbled across a music artist that made you ask the question, “Why haven’t I heard of them before?” For an unspecified amount of time, whenever I jumped over to YouTube, one of the recommended channels that would appear for me was a channel for a band called Halestorm. And for an unspecified…

Palette-Swap Ninja

Anyone who knows me knows that I enjoy playing video games… when I can afford to (those things be expensive, yo), which is why it’s cool when I can find something game-related that’s free of charge. Enter Palette-Swap Ninja, a couple of gamer guys whose hobby it is to take popular songs and insert lyrics…

Adrisaurus

Occasionally, I so fall in love with someone’s voice for whatever inexplicable reason. This happened sometime ago when I stumbled onto a YouTuber going by the handle Adrisaurus. Her real name is Adriana Figueroa and from her videos, she seems to be an adorable young lady with song in her heart and a lovely voice…

The Birthday Massacre

Usually, I only link to one video from an artist I post about here, but there are a few songs from The Birthday Massacre – a Canadian band who can put together some awesome tunes – that I can’t… stop… listening to for reason or another. The first video is a track called “Sideways,” followed…
