Ryan Brio, a poet of purpose dressed with talent!

 Who the fuck is Ryan Brio?



The Man Himself

 Dear Readers, would anybody know who is Ryan Brio? Well even I don't know, all I know is I've read a story a while ago showing a review about his music titled Physical Comedy, and the headline was, '' Do you ever cross someone's path and you KNOW they have somehing ?'' So of course I fell for it, I went digging in, snuffed my nose on that kid's profile. Turns out, I don't know if he's a punk, a rocker, a modern indie goof or what ever the fuck he is, but one thing is sure, he has talent, and creativity. He's played with The Stone Phones before, and seems to dabble in people project as a Hired musician and performer. Now about his music; It's a mix of modern indie, soul in a sense, public pleasing U2, Prince and brilliance. But then again, depending on which song you listen influences leech out from all what can be heard on modern streaming platforms.

 Now usually, I'd corner a certain song along his most recent EP but this time no, I demand you all just go along his discography, elucidating his various moods, his love for a certain girl, world and life in general if I'm not mistaken. Last time I was on LSD, I remember feeling very relaxed, mellow and all numb and this music has this psychedelic effect on the brain. You kind of end up wondering if he's not about to get you hypnotized or something. In I Found The Love of my Life, we get a glimpse of what the Beatles could've been had they met Marc De Marco in modern age. Drums lock you in the groove, and halfway through this charming cosmic piece we have a fuzzy solo sounding a la George Harrison on Abbey Road. The tones through out his musical expressions, are just fucking right on, they fit with the drums, the smooth reverbs alleviating his singing and the whole vibe.

 Overall, his music his a frankestein of genius, it has essence of plenty of bits of Rap, RnB, Pop, Rock, Indie, Ballads and Jazz. It showcases complex arrangements on songs such as Everybody's Shakin; musiciens who are the least worried of their competence on their respective instruments, they all seem to know what to play at the right moment. And the voice glides smoothly across the mixes. We have a bit of experimental bits here and there too and the juxtaposition of the effects are just marvelous. 

 The best part of it is, it is mostly all Ryan's doing that we hear across his multiple songs. Very few times has he had to seek out the help of external musicians, and he also mixes and masters all by himself. Ryan Brio has embrassed the modern Do It Yourself method of producing music and he does it so brilliantly, I encourage you all to go and hear his music and don't miss him when he'll be back on show which is yet to be announced. Finally, he's recently released his insides undigested, yet fully treated and bagged in two sets, one called Shoe (Pt.1) and the second that came out recently titled Shoe,Pt.2; both avaible on streaming platforms. Once again this great catalogue proves just how much diversity and influences Ryan has embraced along his walk of life.

False Hopes, Birds of Prrrey, can it get any better ?

A new single for Birds Of Prrrey, titled False Hopes. The Band from left to right, Grace, Clarence and Noelle. False Hope, their new Single. Birds of Prrrey, a local trio from Montreal have released a single in July on the major streaming platforms and to sum it up, False Hope is a close reminder of Courtney Love, simply with a touch of gentleness and somehow less budget. But let’s not lie, of course three girls starting a band, won’t come up with a record as refined as what Hole and Courtney would release knowing they had millions in budget to spend and producers and studio engineers that had their names echoing through whole decades. Yet the key lies in the similarity they have, the fact that their style and energy resembles Hole and they're quite a bold trio to say the least. They have a couple live out there on the internet elaborating on their prowess with Grace on the bass slinging over with a bow, Noelle singing while sitting behind the drums and of course Clarence simply b...

Mindfuzz more like Mind games

  Mindfuzz , a project that started out from a melting pots of projects seeing the daylight around October 2022, was a band heavily influenced by the 80's and 90's heavier rock and grunge, alternative tendencies! Listening to their songs Butane, Request and Phlegm, there was a will to bring back groovy laced rock spirited music on the scene. Shows were deemed quite the action packed sets and always a thrill to be part of. While their story might have been troublesome, their music was great, their contribution to the local music scene was by no means gibberish. By the end of the group's lifespan, rumours had it tensions had infested the nest, a leader more like a knicker who'd knick all the control and other stories haunted the bands attic, things escalated quickly leading to accusations and public statements surrounding them, the police had it's nose snuffed in, and soon they were no more. The greatest bands either adapt and become mainstream, or die fast after pavi...

August 31th, Downstairs at La Sottorena or whatever it's called! War Doves, Evergreen and The Snatchers

On Saturday August 31th, I'd finally decided to plunge back in the scene and dab my hands at those rockers and mockers trying to take the spolight and maybe get a deal, feel the breeze of the amps and everyone out of stage enjoying their time forgetting their lousy lives. Up at la Sala Rossa was Bad Objection , Drive By , Excess , Street Justice , Scaramanga , and Skull Gate . Downstairs in the same building was War Doves, Evergreen, and The Snatchers. Lets go downstairs for now, where youth is stiff, and waiting for action. It's dark, loud, noises are issued and I can't understand so I jump in and am greeted by folks of The Snatchers , Evergreen and many more friendly faces. Since seeing both shows, money was thight and so I buy tickets and my friend Jonathan buys the beer just like any young school going kid trying to wash out problems and hardships at shows many nights a week. So by the time I've got the beer in hand Matteo from Evergreen comes out of nowhere and as...
