Hamel seems to stroll along the full array of musical styles and confidently picks out what suits him best. He flirts with jazz and pop without being bogged down by one particular style. Hamel and Benny (Benny Sings) - who produced the album - have managed to seamlessly fuse the complete history of pop music into two albums; 'Hamel' and 'Nobody's Tune'.
