Review on The Celebrity Cafe.com - April 18, 2008
Livin' Out Loud - What About Us
- In Livin’ Out Loud’s United States debut album, What About Us, the Los Angeles-based band uses smooth vocals over popular hip-hop beats to produce a well-made album.
Livin’ Out Loud features vocalists Lisa LaShawn, Reuben MacCalla, Sylvia MacCalla, and Jason "Martini" Martinez, a diverse but talented group that easily finds a mellifluous, urban groove.
Unlike the U.K. release, the U.S. version of What About Us includes three new tracks (“Do Your Thing,” “Lately,” and “Make Me Move”) as well as some digitally remastered tracks (“Static,” “Hey Yo,” and “What You Came Here For”).
Combining rap and vocals over a pop beat in the title track, “What About Us,” Livin’ Out Loud creates a catchy, optimistic urban groove that is echoed throughout the following tracks.
Livin’ Out Loud also shows their vocal competence in two outstanding ballads on the album, “Lately,” and a romantic, relaxed cover of the American favorite, “You Are My Sunshine.”
There is no doubt that this group is talented; they create sassy, female songs that parallel more masculine, rap-oriented songs, but there is just a hint of bubble-gum pop. However, with tracks like “Brokeazz,” “Where’s the Love,” and “Static,” Livin’ Out Loud presents an album with stellar vocals, appealing to any audience, regardless of genre preference.

RMAXX (Reuben MacCalla) featured on New ANNICK Maixi Singel f - December 23, 2007
Producer Reuben MacCalla aka RMAXX has used his House Music talents on the new Maxi Single from Annick titled "Give It To Me".
Import Express USA had this to say about ISV Entertainment's latest release:
OUR #1 ACROSS THE BOARD NEW DOMESTIC SINGLE PICK FOR THE HOLIDAYS!
ANNICK / Give It To Me
(ISV/Ranco-USA / 129, 132 & 142 BPM) CD MAXI SINGLE ONLY
(ISV/Ranco-USA / 129, 132 & 142 BPM) CD MAXI SINGLE ONLY
JUST ARRIVED! IMPORT EXPRESS EXCLUSIVE! INCREDIBLE NEW EURO-DANCE POP----WITH AMAZING CIRCUIT-PARTY, RETRO AND ELECTRO-HOUSE REMIXES TOO!! Here's the biggest and best new contender for 2008---an incredible new one with a wink-and-a-smile sly sexiness from the ISV boys (Groove Enforcers, Yumm Yumm, Win Marcinak, etc)---with an incredible array of first rate 12" club mixes. Our personal 'guilty-pleasure' favorite mix is the pure-Euro joy of the amazing KOMPULSOR remix (5:39/ 142 BPM), which is throwback to the best 90s dance music from acts like CULTURE BEAT, REAL McCOY, MASTERBOY and especially E-ROTIC. The RMAXX Classic House Mix (5:02/ 130 BPM) also goes the retro route, combining new millenium piano house with lush disco strings and a real 70s vibe. Fast forward to 2008, and taste the eroticized mainstream power of the RADIKAL DJ'S Mix (5:48/ 130 BPM). Imagine SAMANTHA FOX'S "Touch Me" crossed with LAID BACK'S "White Horse" as they might sound in a mash-up by GLOBAL DEEJAYS or ROYAL GIGOLOS. You get the idea, but this one's even better than that. Ditto the ferocious MBK Club Mix (6:17/ 129 BPM), a pumped up, progressive turn with a distinctly PETER RAUHOFER / STAR 69 kind of sound. By the way, did we mention it's all about sex? A super-hot girl and an equally hot-sounding guy get each other all hot and bothered over the phone and then ...well, you're going to love it (trust me). PS---no cuss words either, so you mix show guys will especially love it. WHAT AMAZING REMIXES! WHAT AN AMAZING, TOTALLY HOT, OUTRAGEOUSLY FUN DANCE TRACK!
