It can best be described as enthusiastic, energetic, dance and urban pop. When looking at his pictures on his website I get a strange Culture Club vibe…it’s probably just all the colors, and the hat! I don’t claim to be any sort of fashion guru but when I look at Xavier I see a guy that has his image together! I had a chance to check out some of his videos on his website and they are a true testament to what music and video should be when put together.
Xavier Toscano – Urban Pop
The album Feels So Good starts out with the single “Never Wanna Leave.” The video he made is put together very well and showcases lots of COLOR!!! I enjoyed the video so much I had to watch it a few times. Music videos just aren’t what they used to be these days so it’s awesome to see a good one now and again! Xavier’s video satisfies that appetite!
After a few listens to Xavier’s album the songs started to stick in my head like any good pop songs would. “Castles In The Sky” is no exception. The placement of this song in the album is perfect as it is the perfect time for a break from the dance tunes. Plus it gives Xavier a chance to feature his voice even further with some stripped down production. Influences I hear are Prince, Owl City, Lenny Kravitz, Seal and that’s just from my limited experience as one person listening to music, remember I hate to put labels on artist’s music, but for review purposes it helps! The atmosphere produced by the production and songwriting on the song “Nas-T-Nize” is awesome! This tune is where the Prince influence comes full force and in your face…simple groove with some crazy tight r&b flavored vocals…killer! “Watch Out It’s On” brings out the EDM party style anthem.
Overall I highly recommend Xavier Toscano’s album “Feels So Good” and I enjoyed reviewing it!! In fact, I think I’ll listen again! Do you know what the best part of Xavier’s album is?!?!
