Toronto just seems to breed talented artists, with no exception here as Jonah Yano brings us a haunting tune with vocals that absolutely command attention. On top of the bright vocal performance, the production job is damn near breathtaking with its indie style guitar tones...
Canadian musician, Alexander Bent, is the type of artist whose work of self expression is set to inspire the best out of any listener. Hearing the passion lacing his voice throughout any track, it is evident that creating is akin to breathing for this star in the making. Growing into himself musically across his latest release, Vanilla Blue, Alex Bent dove into the emptiness stretching before him in the hopes of grasping the abyss… and he may very well do it.

With today’s media being oversaturated with mediocre and unthoughtful content, it is always refreshing to discover a rising artist with the determination to create something with purpose. After our EIC, Jacob Blieu, introduced me to Tullis’ work, I was quickly convinced that he’s a vivid example of a passionate artist.
Starting his musical journey at the young age of thirteen, later experimenting in his band, “Bears and Airplanes”, and then continuing his career as a solo artist, it is safe to say that Tullis (who goes by his last name) will be an Arizona artist to remember. By…
Five piece alternative rock band, The Licks, have been creating some wonderful music throughout the year, accumulating into their stellar debut EP, How Much More. Blending indie, alternative, and beach rock sounds across the project’s five tracks, The Licks never lose our focus for even a second. By touching on subject matter from across the spectrum, The Licks manage to stay crisp and allow for all…

So this past week has been a fucking win streak for AZ. With our local talent flourishing to new heights with every passing day, there’s been a definite leap in talent to a new level from these soon to be recognized superstars. From elevated content to an exploration of different sounds, our favorite scene is only getting better. Now it’s time to look at three of this week’s best releases with another segment of, PHX SHUFFLE!
Start dancing now, because once you get a taste of Desiire’s new track “Paradise”, you won’t be able to stop yourself. The new song from this R&B revivalist lets you picture yourself on the middle of a dance floor, moving like there is no one around to see. The track is a hit waiting to be found with its fresh vocals…
Saiah, the very talented Arizona local, dropped off two new songs yesterday in a small EP titled, sorryfortheinconvenience. The first song, “Aura”, starts off with some heavily Blues vibes, but then quickly transitions over into a more Hip-Hop/R&B style which I just can’t help but fuck with. With an overall groovy tones to the beats, the EP as a whole…
Jack Larsen has impressed me on many of his past tracks, but “Ugly” is truly one of the artist’s best. It’s intricate beat, crafted by Alex Bent + the Emptiness and Chris Hatam, and the buttery, pop-style falsettos provide for a fantastic sounding piece. With its dynamic and constant developments throughout, “Ugly” lets you dance to the sound of…
Roy Blair is a freaking genius. Having an unmatchable excitement around his art only draws fans in tighter around him to see what he will come up with next. This time around it was the incredible video for, “Happy”, one of the best songs on his 2017 album, Cat Heaven. Flexing his artistic muscle, Roy takes us on a journey through the the trials of love and wonder across the 4 minutes and…
One of my favorite new artists remixed one of my favorite songs and it’s fucking sweeeeet. DMV rapper, IDK comes in hot with a new take on 50 Cent’s classic track, “Wanksta”. On “WHY?” (the remixed version of the 2002 hit) IDK reuses the hook and supports it with endless bars that perfectly capture the raw energy originally delivered by 50 over a decade ago, while separating himself as a whole other beast. While walking through the streets of New York, IDK once again proves…
Local favorite, and consistent hitmaker, MastodonRare delivers yet another excellent collection of songs with his latest EP, Guilty Gear. With his high energy sound and lyrical content sure to appease even the most critical of listeners, MastodonRare takes himself to a new level across these five tracks. Opening on what may be one of his strongest songs to date, “Aquarius” finds Mastodon in his bag as he crafts a melodic track, fueled with relatable lyrics about his journey towards a dream while…
Hello to all you beautiful PHX SHUFFLE readers, my name is Riley Tiernan, and I will be filling in for your usual writer, Jacob Blieu, on this addition to our favorite ongoing series.

“This Is America”, Star Wars and the Summer Pack. If you were alive in America this summer it was impossible to keep Donald Glover's work out of your feed. And now Glover gives us even more gold in the new video for his musical persona, Childish Gambino's, "Feels Like Summer". Childish Gambino has officially proven to everyone that his videos are the ones to watch out for over the past...
