Hearing Barry Manilow sing songs from the 70’s was spine-tingling. He’s not only a musical product of the 70’s himself, but he chose some very popular songs of that era to sing for this CD. All the songs are familiar, yet more-so with Barry’s warm vocals. The songs seem …

Untitled is a song by Animal Collective which is the third track on their debut record Spirit They’ve Gone, Spirit They’ve Vanished. Opening up with a mess of instruments, the song is characterized by a very hectic and even dissonant tone in my opinion. The noise that was present …
