Gio Martini - Pinta Vibes

Cali based hiphop artist "Gio Martini" releases "Pinta Vibes"

The Pinta Vibes movement was made to let people know about what Prison Officers see behind bars, on a day to day basis.

The cinematic backbeat is quite complex, and intriguing, and they never fail give way to some incredible, tranquil piano sections, layered over the top with spoken vocal breaks to cleverly chop up the rap sections. It seems to take inspiration from many genres, including nostalgic hiphop, modern drill and rap.

The rhythm of the song, though, not overly complexed, has a groove so strong it cements itself in your bones forcing you to sway alongside its infectious sound.

The production of the track has an integral part to play in its sound, making the flow of the music feel smooth on a whole other level. Most music nowadays does have a respectable level of production but to get a track that highlights its sound in an aesthetically pleasing style in addition to its incredible composition is a real treat.

It's a record which packs a punch whilst simultaneously maintaining a mellowness throughout. The smooth, off the tongue lyrics express the meaningful echoing vocals to give off a real floatiness to the music, but the added energy of the deep beats and nostalgic hiphop style sounds take it to a place where it implores you to headbop along as it continues to build.

Winchester 7 and the Runners release their album "Argos Holiday" One of the first tracks that really caught my attention was "The Golden Age" This song starts with a cresending fuzzy electric guitar introduction that leads into the quiet but powerful halfharmonic vocals, the drums are simple but do the job of keeping the song in track. The electric guitar and bass work well together and the vocals remind me of very early pre2005 Arctic Monkeys songs. "When The World stops Spinning" feels like a Reytons track, also including the fuzzy rock sounds of "The golden age". This song has a more catchy and early rock style than the majority of the songs, the instrumental sections are incredible and action packed. Some of the guitar riffs in "When The World stops Spinning" have a strong 1980s rock vibe.  One of the softer tracks "In the Morning Light" features some unique chord progressions and harmonies, although this song ...
