AVET KHAMTRASHYAN gives Pop a Fresh Twist with “Little Bit of Everything”
AVET KHAMTRASHYAN’s latest release, “Little Bit of Everything,” is a fun celebration of differences that shows that music can be both catchy and new at the same time. The song’s bright pop sound, which includes an accordion, grabs people’s attention right away.
What really sets this song apart is how well KHAMTRASHYAN mixes the old with the new. Each line was carefully crafted so people can not only hear the song but also feel it. The song “Little Bit of Everything” is a melodic journey that is both easy to enjoy and hard to forget.
KHAMTRASHYAN shows how nice it is when things are different, like when they’re calm and harsh, hot and cold, or fast and slow. This duality doesn’t seem forced, it fits the song’s rhythm and lyrics, making it feel fun and almost silly. It shows that music sometimes needs a little bit of everything.

Album Review
Mt. Kili Mt. Kili delivers quiet power and honest reflection on “The Noticer” (album)
Mt. Kili’s latest album, “The Noticer,” is a warm, contemplative acoustic folk album that finds beauty in the minutiae of life itself, as calm and bare as anyone would call it. Songwriter Rick Sichta of Asheville leads the project with delicate instrumentation and outspoken lyrics, bringing forth an experience that can be both personal and universal.
Recorded at Echo Mountain Studio in Asheville, the music is refined and mastered by Grammy Award-winning Julian Dreyer and David Glasser. The current lineup still embodies this vision, with Matt Shepard holding down a heavy rhythmic backbone and Laney Barnett’s violin and vocals rounding out the sound, creating emotion.
There is a story and emotion hidden within each track. The EP opens with “Don’t Start a War,” which opens contemplatively, begging for peace rather than war. The title track, “The Noticer,” exudes a sense of awareness and the beauty of watching life unfold. “The Rain Song” features a soothing, near-meditative vibe.
With a hopeful reflection, “The Road Isn’t as Long as It Seems” is about perspective and perseverance. “Her Song” is pretty much a musical love letter, and “Kyle” is defined by its character-driven narrative. With “The Weather Report,” the change of feeling is reflected, while “Scars “ and “Strawberry Fields” hint at memories and softening imagery. “All in Good Time” concludes the record patiently, a soothing sigh of comfort. “The Noticer” is a reflective album with a soft reminder that sometimes the smallest moments mean the most.

dredge reflects on emotions and unfiltered truth in “doomed from the start” (EP)
“doomed from the start,” the debut EP of dredge is a burst of underground noise, rough around the edges, an ambitious debut that embraces chaos in its own deeply personal way. The EP is raw, recorded in a garage somewhere between Birmingham and Worcestershire, with a cinematic feel that mirrors its emotive honesty.
It begins with “captain oblivious” and portrays the uncertainty and restlessness of a track after meeting someone unaware of the most fundamental part of themselves. “drink beer, hail satan“ takes the mood down a notch, with a bit of black humor about aging and death, presented in an oddly humorous way, but more plainly. The balance of energy and reflection presented on the track makes it one of the most memorable tracks on the project.
“temptress“ is like an idea of running into the wrong people & getting caught up in that familiar feeling of being drawn to harrowing situations. An exploration of the darker, cheeky end, then to round up the EP with “goblins.” The track is dynamic, and it complements the project nicely. “doomed from the start” is concise, coming in at just over 15 minutes, and it’s a crashing, truthful, and unvarnished introduction to dredge’s world.
