Via a music promotion site I found this incredible artist with some outstanding tracks. After a week or so i received an email from Dunn Pearson of Dunn and Bruce street to expose his artists for his label I Believe Music Works. It was about Aaron Kyle who submitted those fantastic tracks. Dunn Pearson actually produced this album, and you can hear that, quality tunes.
We talk about the CD album '52 Weeks' by Aaron Kyle, already released in 2015 on Believe Music Works. This CD contains eleven great quality tracks, including a few covers, and therefor this album needs extra exposure.
It's start with an interlude with an ode to his mother followed by the track 'Hey Mama', a down-tempo soul tune with lyrics about his mother which is a great track with nice synth sounds. You can use this tune to ode you mama.
The next track on '52 weeks' is the amazing 'Get With This'. On top of the 90s drum machine you hear a great bass line, with a great Chorus. Typically a track to put in loop mode. Check my future real chocolate podcast.
One of the covers is 'Ain't No Proud To Beg' originally recorded by The Temptations in 1966 on Motown Records. This cover sounds pretty good.
The next tune 'Harmonic Mind' is also absolute killer tune. A slow-tempo jazzy track with nice guitar licks, great sound effects, on top of a funky drum, bass beat. 5 out of 5 stars tune. Loop mode track.
'Missing' is another quality down tempo jazzy/soul tune with beautiful guitar licks, and a nice beat. The second cover on this album is 'Stand By me' originally recorded in 1961 by Ben E King. The version of Aaron is acoustic, great sounded vocal by Aaron on top of an acoustic guitar.
'Notus' is another superb down-tempo tune. The ballad 'Just Because' sounds like a Freddie Jackson song. Nice vocals and great musicianship. The same is true for the last track on this CD 'Pathway'.
You can hear that really good musicians are involved on this album and there for I can highly recommend this CD if you like great quality tunes. Check the sound samples on the album page.
