Turn it Up !

Laughing Song

“Welcome in the Year” is an amazing song with layers of sound. Take some organ that sounds like Stevie Wonder, a drum beat that moves the song along, a rumbling bass, some tribal-sounding percussion and some hot female lead vocals and this song is the result. It not only has layers of sound, but also furious energy. If you dance to this one (and I have a feeling you will), you’ll need a minute or two to catch your breath when you’re done.

Welcome in the Year

sweet little pop song

“How Sweet” has an old-school funk sound. The organ reminds me of Booker T, the rhythms will definitely get your backside moving.  (Incognito Music Magazine)
