Musik and Film’s George Cahill Reviewed By Skope Magazine

May 4, 2012
Post Image

George Cahill has been rocking the Philly scene for awhile and is now celebrating his latest release, “Relevant”. It is 9 tracks of brutal honesty accompanied by some tight instrumentation to drive his point home.

Cahill does a nice rendition of Bob Seger’s, “Still the Same”. He has a unique portrayal of the song and makes it his own with a conversational style to his singing; it is kind of like hanging in a coffee shop as he tells you about his day. Then serenades us all with, “This Land is Your Land”, with the sweetest harmonies and most lonesome harmonica I have ever heard.

Musik and Film Signs Deal With Endless Interstate

Musik and Film and Cinderella Records has signed an exclusive distribution deal for new Single Place Called Home from the group ‘Endless Interstate’.

Hailing from Bath Maine this duo comprised of former ‘Liquid Daydream’ members Matthais Sampson (vocals, congas & bongos, djembe, acoustic guitar, mandolin, harmonica and percussion) and Christian Muccino (acoustic & electric guitars, bass guitar, percussion and orchestral sounds) brings more than 20 years of making music together to Cinderella Records. Two decades worth of music collaboration has created a sound and unity that is time honed with the patina of experience.

The new single “Place Called Home” displays what this duo does best. With tight harmonies, simple clean rhythms, and honestly delivered lyrics we see why these two musicians have made a career of making music together. As reviewed by Rhonda Readence on the bands website “Place Called Home carries a rhythm that is vaguely reminiscent of R.E.M. towards the beginning and Matt’s vocals are delivered in a deep and more drawn out style than than in the preceding track. Chris’s guitar playing is graceful, both the acoustic and the electric, and this piece rolls smoothly. The lyrics carry a haunting sense of despair as Matt gently croons about the plight of the homeless.”

“Soulful, emotional, well written and produced, it has a great Pearl Jam/Temple of the Dog feel to it. I haven’t taken it out of my cd player since I put it in”. Chris Johnston – Owner of The Montsweag Roadhouse, Woolwich, ME

Nicole Taylor – I’m You’re Whore

January 22, 2012

Nicole Taylor

Sydney, NSW Australia

Sassy, irreverent, sarcastic, off beat, Nicole Taylor launches on to the World Wide Pop charts with her latest single I’m Your Whore. More than a nod to the great Leonard Cohen’s I’m Your Man, Nicole kneels down offering the ultimate submission. Blending her unique, lithe, angelic vocals over cheery, spacey instrumentation her music manages to hold your attention while your mind distractedly wanders, roller skating through the 80’s tapestry smiling and nodding dumbly. Before you know what has hit you a snicker comes bubbling up through the silly smile you didn’t realize was on your face. Pink cotton candy slaps you across the face and then melts in your mouth leaving you feeling oddly exhilarated, a bit turned on, and wanting more.

Born in Sydney Australia, Nicole dreamt of one day becoming a novelist. On the daily commuter train, galvanized by the monotony of the Monday to Friday work day she penned her first song lyrics. Quickly realizing the cathartic and instantly gratifying sensation this first song provoked, she took to excavating this newly discovered fertile soil. Her debut album houses 8 tracks including the title track Ambiguosexual. Hers is a truly unique perspective. Each song is fresh and upbeat, but slyly concealing the tragic undertones that always seemed to accompany the heavy synthed out music of the 80’s pop scene. This is music that not only doesn’t take itself seriously, but it isn’t too worried about you either.

Musik and Film is stoked to bring this new artist in to the spotlight for 2012 with a full scale radio assault. 15,000 radio stations in over 70 Countries World Wide will be dipped in the wicked confectionary that is Nicole Taylor’s music.

“ I don’t know where we’re going but it doesn’t really matter cause we’re speeding with a passion and we’re laughing out aloud.” – Nicole Taylor, Dreams and Nightmares

Pulling closer you hear the giddy, riotous rumble of a party, dancing, music, brännvin flowing, you step inside.

Alt. Acoustic Group 7 Horses Signs With Musik And Film, Cinderella Records

December 13, 2011

Step off your planet. Find a new place. Get Out of your dust bowl. Wipe away the haze.” – From ‘Bright’

7 Horses is gearing up to release their much anticipated new single “Bright”. Galloping in on the heels of their world wide hit “Brave New World”, “Bright” has this diverse duo delighting us once again. Prolific songwriter and lead vocalist Joanne blends her haunting vocals with partner Phil’s unique chord voicings and signature rhythmic guitar.

Bright’s uplifting, soaring harmonies lift you skyward as you float through the musical landscape, balancing on the strings of the sweeping violin and anchoring on to the deep stratocaster urging you to “shine, shine, shine”.

This New York based duo came onto the scene as an alternative acoustic act. Described as soft as Jewel with the edge of Patty Smith and the allure of a smokey room. 7 Horses beckons the listener to venture deeper, look closer. Influenced by artists like David Gray,Jackson Browne, Bon Jovi, Patty Smith and Johnny Cash. Their sound has warm blue undertones, sometimes even a beautiful darkness that captivates and leaves you doing a little soul searching as you find yourself lost in their emotive soundscape.

7 Horses plays “real” music. Music that has the rawness and purity that withstands fads and fashions and sounds as good today as it will 10 years from now. *VH1- Song of the Year Contest has put them on the list of suggestive artists to listen to!

“Bright” will be available on sites and ringtones everywhere in late December.

“Bright” will also be submitted by Musik and Film’s radio division, Full Radio Promotions to over 15,000 radio stations for consideration for airplay.
