New Music Friday 12/17 – Light Week

It’s Friday once again and we are 8 days away from Christmas. Unfortunately this New Music Friday isn’t filled with many gifts. There isn’t a lot to report on this week.

This week we have new songs from Camilo, Casper Magico, Nio Garcia, Jay Wheeler, Emilia, and more.

For last week’s New Music Friday post, click here.

Without further ado, let’s get to work.

Pesadilla – Camilo

This doesn’t really do it for me. It’s not really the kind of song I can see myself enjoying under any situation. I know we’re light on the songs this week but this isn’t very good. Sorry not sorry.

Karma – Casper Magico, Bryant Myers, Flow La Movie

First, and most importantly, RIP to Flow La Movie. The prolific producer was killed in a plane crash earlier this week. His death is tragic to say the least. The positive is that this is a very solid production of his. I really enjoyed this track. Very much worth the listen.

Mood (Remix) – Omy de Oro, Jay Wheeler, Nio Garcia

I wouldn’t say this is anything special. It’s not really bad by any means but it’s also not something worth talking about too much. It’s the definition of “eh”.

Facetime – Akim, Lyanno

This is a pretty standard reggaeton track but compared to the rest of the releases for the week, a pretty good outing. Lyanno really carries the track. This would fit in well as the kind of background reggaeton music that you would have on as you drove home late at night.

De Enero a Diciembre – Emilia, Rusherking

This is a good twist on the usual year end song. This is a fun track from one of my favorite new artists in Emilia. This has a lot of 2015 vibes to it, which isn’t a terrible thing at all. To say this is a simple, fun track wouldn’t be wrong at all.

Dame Love (Remix) – Seven Kayne, KHEA

KHEA has a skill for rock music. He doesn’t use it here. This song is really nothing special or even remotely interesting. It sounds like a standard alt song from the late 2000s, early 2010s. I don’t know what the point of this song is.

Until the Day (Remix) – Alexcis, Snow Tha Product, T-Pain

How much did T-Pain get paid for this song? I hope he got a bag. This song isn’t complete trash but I wouldn’t say it’s good by any means. I just don’t get why T-Pain would involve himself if he wasn’t making bank off the feature. This is not the kind of song I would say you should seek out.

Tranquilito (Remix) – Gerardo Ortiz, Aleman

If you like Gerardo Ortiz’s music then this will probably do it for you. There’s enough of a taste of an urban edge to the Mexican core that could make this worth listening to. It’s not my kind of song but hey, we don’t all share the same taste and that’s what makes this world beautiful.
