England Prog Rock - Take Me on a Sleigh Ride by Off Piste Music Rock, Progressive London, United Kingdom Overall Impression: Taking a rather melancholic, yet creatively refreshing take on the Christmas song, England Prog Rock's brilliantly classic-sounding, soul-infused, prog-inspired, pop-rocker "Take Me on a Sleigh Ride" is a superbly performed piece of festive tinted songwriting that makes excellent use of its varied instrumentation, well-crafted arrangement, and inspired approach to the theme of Christmas and how the time can be perceived differently from person to person. "Take Me on a Sleigh Ride" makes wonderful use of its richly layered vocals and sweeping string motifs whilst each and every beautifully phrased melody line and momentum-creating percussive element gently carries the listener from start to finish, ensuring everyone comes away from the track feeling both resoundingly satisfied and deeply moved. Strongest Point(s):...

Richard Allen McGee - Miracle Christian/Gospel, Pop, Rock Florida, United States Overall Impression: Melodically impressive and full of faith, Miracle by Richard Allen McGee has something to offer for every type of listener. This new Christian Rock song boasts attractive guitar riffs and an Alternative Rock sound to stand out among the crowd. As early as the introduction and first verse, Miracle takes a unique shape with a darkened vocal shade and uplifting lyrics. This shape morphs as the song progresses, and shines very brightly during the chorus. As expected, McGee brings in some killer guitar solos to take this music to the next level. They create peaks in the song's landscape and showcase a very special feature of McGee's own brand of Christian Rock. With Miracle, Richard Allen McGee manages to melt faces, look inward, and inspire faith. Strongest Point(s): There are many strong points with Miracle.

Blujon - On a Cold Winter’s Night Alternative/Alt. Rock, Rock, Progressive rock Cocentaina, Spain Overall Impression: A musical mash-up of folk-pop and new age, Blujon’s latest single “On a Cold Winter’s Night” combines elements from some of the band’s influences like Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin. Although they consider themselves a progressive rock band, this track has a much lighter and softer sound. From progressive to symphonic rock as well as classical influences Blujon has something that will appeal to a variety of music lovers. Strongest Point(s): Vocally, Blujon’s has a lovely sound and a calming/relaxing presence and tone. The band's lead singer Samantha Schoon's sound is reminiscent of Sarah McLachlan meets Enya. Her accent and the nuances in her voice make it beautiful and unique.
