Sacrifice in Cultra fight through the desert with story of ”Pills and Dust”

Pills and Dust” from Sacrifice in Cultra is the earth-shattering rock-electro sound that defies what I have heard before. This is a song with meaning and so is their movement.

Founded in 2018, Sacrifice in Cultra is not just a fashion brand, it is an artist network geared towards change and will continue to push the boundaries set in place without selling out.

Taken off recent full 12 track album ”Redacted”, this bouncy song has a mightily menacing beat that breaths fire onto our soul.

Pills and Dust” is about all those parties that start to blur after awhile and the journey to make sure that you can fully be in the moment. This is a phenomenal release that launches high above the cloud with the bass-filled steam train that build up the mountain and to our souls.

https://m.soundcloud.com/onesixtwo/monster-ft-tommy-b

Monster” from OneSixTwo is one for the books from the Medocino County artist in sunny California.

OneSixTwo takes us inside his journey of being the underdog that has dealt with the undertones that all plague us at some point. The negative energy that can be all around us. I feel like a lot of artists are envious of his talent and this affected him. Not anymore. This is a fiery effort with passion.

This is a quality single from the rising talent from Medocino artist who sings his heart out while also featuring the excellent Tommy B. These two join forces like a perfectly cooked Sunday roast and it heats up during the ice cold beat to emanate the right temperature.

2020 has just landed the ultimate soundtrack. It has been a year stained by so many tragedies.

This fine song from the talented OneSixTwo as he slides into the place he belongs. After being the underdog due to egos and pettiness for too long, it feels like this is his best effort yet. He knows what his purpose is now and that’s to make more top shelf music for the weary souls out there.

Who are you really inside? Do you look at the mirror and not like what you see? This is an age old problem that has engulfed our world. With Social Media dominating our lives, self-love and mental health is even more vital these days. You need to love yourself in a humble manner to fully love someone else.

”This song is about someone who hates who they see in the mirror, someone who recognizes that they are no one, and tries to convince themselves that it does not bother them, when it is one of the most overwhelming things in their life.”- Chandler Joshua

Who Are You?” from Chandler Joshua is a sad song. No question. This is an artist that is in pain as he does not like what he sees and is trying to convince himself that it doesn’t bother him but it does. The vibe is deep and meaningful and let’s hope this song helps him grab out of the hole that he is in.

You want the love to last but you have no choice in the matter. It’s so vivid after having that face to face chat that tells you it’s all done. When you hear those words you realize that those memories will fade quickly. Or will you both still feel the burning passion to try again and not worry what your friends think?

All Over Now’‘ from Andrew Maxwell Morris is a breakup journey and it makes one very reflective. I sit here a bit gloomy wondering what might have been. I think to the future and hope that I can be the best man possible for my next girlfriend and hopefully Queen. After some growing up, it’s time.
