![Brandon's TBE Digest 31 – [12.11.2011] New Jams, Remixes, & Covers!](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3922870_lg.jpg)
Artwork by Jacob Youngblood Ziegler Brandon's TBE Digest is a place where I gather up all the recent jams that are worth a listen (or 10) but don't necessarily need their own post. Here you will find new tracks by known bands, remixes, covers, and even mashups if they are interesting. My favorites of the lot are in bold . This may be the last Digest I do like this. I'd really like to take the time to give the best of these tracks the solo post they deserve. If [...]
Music is emotive. Or at least, good music is emotive. If it doesn't provoke some kind of response you can safely say that kind of tune is probably not for you. This music makes me feel so very bloody happy and carefree. It's the kind of tunes you kick back, nod your head, tap your foot and forget whatever is troubling you, maybe grab a hairbrush or an air guitar and play along mid-ironing session. Taken off The Milks ' B-Roads and B Sides EP, due out December 19th, the band blend soul, mo-town and old [...]

The prediction I made last year that Essex lads The Milk were ones to watch for looks like it's coming true. The boys have been snapped up by Sony, and are putting the finishing touches on a debut album which should see the light of day in the middle of next year. UK heavy hitters including Zane Lowe and Huey Morgan have gotten behind the boys too, spinning their latest single 'B-Roads'. Add these plaudits to a string of wild live shows (which have earned The Milk a [...]
Byron & Onra - Dance With Me Byron & Onra - Carribean Vibes feat. Julien Marc Byron & Onra - The World feat. Dal Gren It's been a busy few weeks for Onra, his US tour has caused major hype grabbing the attention of Jay-Z who featured the french producer on his new lifestyle blog Life+Times . This here's a little treat from the man himself, an album released back in 2007 with keyboardist Byron that Onra resurrected yesterday for FREE. [...]
Slough's Byron poaches A Long Hot Summer standout Beautiful from Masta Ace and gives it his rendition. Taken from the Jack Of None mixtape he put out last year.
Blunt Wun has been busy linking UK rappers who've been making moves of late. Check these exclusives he got with Mystro, Stylah, Skandal (or Rewd Adams, depending on what you feel like) and Byron for his Blatantly Blunt TV channel.
Roots Manuva has met Wrongtom and made a tune called 'Jah Warrior' . It's really cool - I love a bit of Mr. Manuva and this Wrongtom fella seems pretty dope too. They've also done a couple of remixes; one of 'Buff Nuff' called 'Rebuff' and I think it's a greater than the original, especially in the chorus. 'Bashment Boogie' also gets tickled with the remix stick and 'Basement Bogle' is definitely rather bogling - good stuff. Buy. UK Hip Hop artist QRED has joined up with US MC Brandeesh, looped [...]
Drawing inspiration from both hip hop and grime in equal measures, Byron's Jack Of None is now available. He's got some impressive production for this debut mixtape, notably M-Phazes and Ghosttown, and this looks sure to make an impression. Check the promotional mix below. Byron - Jack of None (Promotional Mix) by loftb You can purchase the mixtape exclusively at UK Record Shop for £6 a pop.

Once more, here is November's edition of the Music Alliance Pact . For those of you who don't know about MAP, it's a collection of music blogs from around the world who band together once a month to shed light on up-and-comers from their home countries. It's sort of like the WTO without the human rights violations. After the jump you'll find music from 32 nations spanning the globe. If you'd like to be considered for this feature, drop by the comments section with a link to your site and I'll forward [...]
In decembrie, imi este dat sa anunt ca propunere pentru Romania, la Music Alliance Pact, pe Byron, proiectul solo al lui Dan Byron, transformat intr-o veritabila formatie de rock alternativ, crescuta pe filon progresiv. Nu sunt singurul care crede ca Byron este cea mai buna voce a rockului romanesc...asta dupa ce si-a dovedit calitatile in Kumm sau in Urma. Dupa 3 albume Byron (doua pe bune si un acustic) pot spune acelasi lucru si mai mult: omul chiar stie sa compuna si sa croseteze muzical. Si a strans pe langa el muzicieni care nu sunt doar simpli mercenari. In cel [...]
Última edición del Music Alliance Pact del 2009, este cierre de año viene increíble, al presentar una canción que pertenece a posiblemente el mejor disco de rock nacional del año, me refiero a Inside The Corporation de El Hombre Misterioso nominado al Premio Luces del Comercio como Mejor Disco de Rock junto a otros discos de bandas igual de grandes que ya pasaron por aquí como los Plug-Plug o Los Protones . Inside The Corporation se presenta más sólido que Pez raro, su primer trabajo, el tono político, historias [...]
ARGENTINA : Zonaindie Coiffeur - Humedad Coiffeur is not the name of a band, but the alias of a young folk singer and songwriter from Morón, a city in the greater Buenos Aires area). Humedad is one of the finest songs from his third album, El Tonel De Las Danaides, which was released this year by Estamos Felices (Argentina's coolest independent label, you should check them out). AUSTRALIA [...]

Even the impending joy-burst that is Christmas can't stop the inter-blogging juggernaut that is the Music Alliance Pact, which zooms along like a monthly version of Santa, bearing gifts of song via one chimney-sized post. For our final MAP offering of 2009, we've chosen a track by ambitious Edinburgh-based group THE KAYS LAVELLE but there are plenty of other golden nuggets to discover, including a Portuguese artist who released a song on a little-known Scottish label, plus MAP's first ever submission from the Netherlands, who are represented by [...]
O David Santos, mais conhecido por Noiserv, é mais um dos jovens músicos na área do pop-rock que nós, portugueses, não merecemos mas que merece estar na Music Alliance Pact e ser divulgado nos 34 países, de todos os continentes, que participam nesta aliança. Ele tem demasiado talento para um país que dá mais horas de "airplay" a um qualquer alternativo de Liverpool ou Manchester ou Brooklyn,
Download a free sampler from an MC who seems to have appeared from nowhere. Byron, from the sounds of this 20 minute snippet mix, is a very dope MC and is definitely worth checking for in the future - I'll be listening out for sure when he drops his album 'Jack Of None'. Here's the press gubbins: "Hailing from the much-maligned town of Slough, Byron's penchant for witty wordplay and intricate intonation are sure to establish the 23 year old as one of the best in the UK to ever touch a microphone. With original production [...]
