Caw!... That's right! The Coconut Monkeyrocket can definitely garner an excitable response with birds, or any animal for that matter… especially us humans. Welcome to the wonderfully fun music genre cleverly referred to as electrokitsch and/or toonbeat . It's a sound that keeps you smiling for days on end, and The Coconut Monkeyrocket (fun name to say) is the epitome of this upbeat and playful sonic experiment. I recently stumbled upon the couple years old album; "With Birds" quite randomly online in my never-ending search for awesome [...]

Bongos, Bleeps, & Baselines - Zero DB Zero Db's track, from the album of the same name, Bongos Bleeps & Baselines , on Ninja Tune , is off the hook... srsly! It has one of the deepest, thickest base drops that you'll ever hear, with interesting bongo rhythms and those crazy beats. A female vocal sample keeps asking: " Are you swinging? Are you swaying? ". 60 minutes into this song I'd be mighty surprised if your answer was [...]

( all the details ) Andrew Sandoval kicks off Monkee Week today, Sunday [...]
It's true, I'm a sucker for vox-sampling bands. One of the most rhythmic of the spoken-weird snippet genre is The Coconut Monkeyrocket. Their new CD is With Birds (emusic). Their site has mp3s, as does (the excellent "free music Net Label") Comfort Stand. Try "Accidental Beatnik" (3:51 mp3): [audio: http://ia300138.us.archive.org /3/items/csr048/csr048_comfort -cake_slice-2_02_coconut-monke yrocket_accidental-beatnik.mp3 ] And "Shopping For Explosives" ...

What's that, you say? You've never heard of The Coconut Monkeyrocket?! Allow me to introduce you to the delightfully wonky exotic pop produced by this former netlabel act. A full length album entitled With Birds is now available for your...
Long-time visitors to the site will remember an earlier post featuring the mighty Coconut Monkeyrocket . A recent commenter pointed out that there had been a CMR album released which I purchased straight away. I got it through the post this morning and it's magic! A whole album of crazy 1950s cocktail lounge electronica for the ADHD sufferer in your life. The Coconut Monkeyrocket - Juicy Jungle This is the first track and is a kind-of manic hyper-concentrated CMR track - all 50s glee-club vocals, clipped guitar [...]

Coconut Monkeyrocket makes music inspired by cartoons... this music is a cartoon soundtrack you can dance to. Not what you'd usually find here at *Sixeyes, but it's unique and extremely entertaining. And it just may be perfect for that Halloween party you're planning. + illogical boogie + accidental beatnik + smoky smoky + thank you + coconut monkeyrocket theme Tech Tags: mp3 music downloads

The time has come for us to get down and boogie... The Comfort Stand artists seem to hit a certain groove with me that I love and I keep going back to find more great music. There is a great split ep of The Coconut Monkey Rocket & Martinibomb (who was a CC:365 pick on day 244) and I'd like to highlight the Coconut Monkey Rocket side of SPLIT! with the track "Illogical Boogie". The Coconut Monkey Rocket is a groovy project from Jason Emmett and he'll have you dancing when [...]
