COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Rhythm Driven submitted by Meginator on July 22, 2021, 9:24pm These songs tend toward the upbeat side, with a heavy emphasis on the rhythmic elements that drive each track; this is music intended to make you move, and it naturally invites dancing. Aside from the lively percussion, the artists incorporate a variety of melodic instruments and vocals that give these songs a unique musical quality and a distinct sense of place. I really enjoyed this.
