Tiger Tsunami – Re:Antarctica EP
Discovering gems like this EP is one of the reasons I keep doing what I’m doing without getting paid. I was going about my day and listening to stuff on Sound Cloud. Checking out all kinds of tracks and just exploring. About 10 tracks later I ran across Tiger Tsunami and the artwork to Re: [...]
Nefarious! – The Dream Theory
Hit play, lean back, close your eyes, and relax your mind. As the music finds it’s way into your brain through your ears, thinking there is no other place to be but right here. I’m telling you, I have been working to Nefarious!’s The Dream Theory, relaxing, walking, and just eating while this plays in [...]
Apollo Campbell & David Vangel – Measure Of Progress ft. Mr. Blends
This video is crazy and strangely hypnotically fun with the kids singing the chorus. I dig the vibrant colors, dope lyrics and beat. Usually the mirror effect in a video can be overwhelming, but in this case it was done right. Measure Of Progress is a fun loving track with a positive message about life. Watch this video enough [...]
Kone – Legend Days
My man KONE is hard at work on the beats. He’s dropped a Starship 27 bonus track called Funk 3482 featuring SelfSay on Insect Records, and now Legend Days. Last week he was out performing at BOOMBOX and selling shirts and CD’s. KONE is a busy dude. Legend Days has this tribal, spiritual, self discovery vibe. You’ll [...]
Oddisee – Odd Renditions
I’m going to give you my opinion on this dude Oddisee. I think we are witnessing the makings of a legend. I really can’t think of a project that he’s a part of that folks don’t love. Above all Oddisee is a down to earth cat. Odd Renditions Vol. 001 is another flavor of Oddisee, but still [...]
HawdWerk – Call In Sick
Checking my emails late at night like usual, and got one from the good folks at Cov Original Music. That first track, The Real, is a banger. After that I just kept it going. Before I knew it I had listened to the whole thing. HawdWerk keep doing what you’re doing brother. Check out HawdWerk at Blue [...]
Pheo – They Soulection (EP)
Pheo is one of my Hip Hop staples on the iPod. From the Word To Your Blogger mixtape to his latest project, They Soulection (EP), the quality is up there. Pheo also connects with other great artists like the lovely Nikko Gray on Who Unplugged Your Halo. I just want to connect the dots right: Pheo’s Drop (2012) samples Pharcyde’s Drop [...]
Dobrega – The Rebuild EP
I’ll tell you, my man Greg the Dude knows just about everyone. I was at Greg’s spot for a party and was talking to this one cat Dobrega about some music. He told me a little about a project he was working on and would keep me posted. I didn’t hear from him for a [...]
Koncept & Tranzformer – Day Dreaming
Going through my emails as usual, I was looking for a video to write about and ran across Koncept and Tranzformer Day Dreaming. I started thinking about when I would day dream in class. I checked out the video and started nodding my head to the track. Below the video was a link for a [...]
Trebles and Blues – The Blue Note
You know those days you just want to chill out, but you don’t want to play your parent’s jazz. You need something with a little kick that speaks to you, right? Well look no farther, Trebles and Blues – The Blue Note is for you. Yes, I sound like an info commercial because Trebles and [...]
