The HUGS Music Review..... by George Duchow
George Duchow
Welcome to the World of Music at HUGS 24/7 RADIO!!
Not always do we see, hear or feel the same about the musical workings of Artists in the entertainment field, especially according to the world of the Unsigned and Independent classifications in Music. The defined separations in Genres tend to cut through the hearts of many, while creating what appears to be a painful venture to others; still the human edges of emotions have a way to overlook the unrecognized. HUGS understands that not all music is considered, Good Music, yet, good music is universal to everyone... That still leaves the undying question of, "What do you think about it?"
Meet George Duchow. He is actually a very well defined artist in the music world. His views and insight in music are very diversified. Whether it be the pounding feel of Rock and Roll, or the Sweet Subtle Sounds of a Singer/Songwriters ballad; fact is, his critiques that are offered are ones that have been drawn from the musical talents that have been brought to light through the HUGS Platform.
We at HUGS are happy to see George share his ideals and personal insights with us. And, with all that are involved in the musical experience that is found 7 days a week, 24 hours a day at HUGS 24/7 RADIO.

Pat Vining: “Drinkin’ On The Weekend”

Ready! Steady! Go!
Pat Vining’s cover version of Big Al Anderson’s 2006 song “Drinkin’ On The Weekend” is even better than the original, in my opinion. I kid you not! Pat pumped up the energy level, injected a bit more gritty soul with his vocals, and added some guitar moxie, making it his own, with all due respect to Big Al. The guitars have the very familiar tones of the great Chuck Berry from the early days of Rock N’ Roll in the late 50’s, and its Rockabilly vibe makes this is a great song to get the party started. And I have no doubt that it’s a song a lot of people can relate to, even if you don’t do any drinking on the weekend! But for those that do, this may be your new anthem!
Tremoré: “Love Harder”

All For Love
Tremoré brings the hip-hop influenced Pop song “Love Harder” to the Hugs universe. With strong vocals and very singable melodies, you feel the emotion of giving more for love, doing the best you can to make it indisputable, no matter what the relationship is going facing. The piano in the versus brings a sense of vulnerability, while the chorus let’s you know that the passion is deeply real. Have a listen and feel it for yourself.
