Artist Kaz Bielinski is a stylistically diverse songwriter, though the results of his efforts here prove more interesting than satisfying. That’s mainly due to subpar audio production, which undermines him time and again. “I’m On The Road” is a classic garage-rocker with a decent hook, but Kaz’s lead vocal should be far more forceful in the mix. He shifts gears to a sexy Latin mellowness on “Love Situation,” and there’s kind of a good song in there somewhere, but the chorus does not soar as it should. Another stylistic shift is “The Rainbow” where he goes for a chamber-pop effect, complete with piano, violin and a sad, straining lead vocal. We urge this artist to get with a producer who can elevate his diverse material.
