Totally Michael- Totally Michael
9/10

Totally Michael is TOTALLY MICHAEL, a 20 year old guy from Cabot, Arkansas. His music is pure gold coated electronic pop-punk, harping back to the ‘90s and hangs around with every excuse to party hard like it’s 1998. Made simply on a guitar and a laptop, Michael’s pop hits are silly and at times so out of wack they seem a bit awkward. However there’s no point wasting time, Totally Michael is not for those wanting some sort of religious experience, in fact as Michael says himself “split it down the middle, cheerleaders on the left, drillteam on the right”. His lyrics are so catchy you’ll be singing them for days, lines like “I was 17 years old, she was nineteen, when I first saw her she was on the TV screen” from his song ‘Winona’, about a boyhood crush on Winona Ryder provide simple proof. The beats are bouncy, the electronics super infectious and with his carefree style fully reigning supreme, Totally Michael is near single handedly spawning the first ‘90s revival sound. He’s so cheeky and fun, fast-paced and at times a little sleazy. On ‘Causual Satisfaction’ he sings “Damn girl you make my dicky wet, Oo boy you make my pussy wet” and with such vibrant energy and endless, endless dance floor bangers his debut is totally unforgettable.
