“I’m not your springtime fantasy,” goes “Return,” a gem of a new song from Strange Names, a band consisting of recent New York transplants Fletcher Aleckson, Francis Ximenez and Liam Benzvi. The irony here is that “Return” actually feels like a red hot spring fling, coming at you from out of nowhere, laying it on…

Everybody loves a cheesy bubblegum pop ballad once in a while, right? Well, if so, then you’ll be tickled pink by Jessie J’s joyous song “Flash Light,” which is from the Pitch Perfect 2 soundtrack.

This one is so good my jaw dropped the first time I listened to it. I’ve now listened to it three times in a row and I’m still in awe of how superb it is. Which shouldn’t surprise me because Todd Terry and Armand Van Helden have been two of my favorite remixers since back…

Armed with just the guitar and the sound of Chris Chu’s voice, POP ETC deliver an inspired cover of Tom Petty’s classic “I Won’t Back Down.” Their rendition is true to the original but there’s a different vibe about it just the same with Chu delivering more of a pop vocal and singing the chorus…

If the tremendously talented Banks made grandiose dance pop songs, they would sound an awful lot like the music of Charlotte OC, who has a similar flair for haunting melodies and insightful lyrics. “If my house was burning / Would you run or stay?” she asks during the lead track “If My House Was Burning,”…
