Gary Wright - Let It Out The Mud Hut

Sometimes, things are better off left alone I'm dubious about remakes. I don't agree with remakes WHATSOEVER. However, having heard Daft Punk's new Tron Legacy theme I must admit I am now pretty excited about what they're going to do with the soundtrack . If you've not heard it yet, you're in for a treat, it's wicked! This John Roman remix is a bit ambitious, the guy's got hold of this track snippet and bled 4 minutes out of it. Still, credit where credit's due, he's a [...]

Here Benjamin tells us about sleeping on the floor, American Idol and the Nightmare On Elm Street theme.
Scottish singer/songwriter Ali Thomson came from a family familiar with music stardom as older brother Doug was the bassist for the band Supertramp. At the height of that band's popularity, following their smash album Breakfast In America , Thomson secured a record deal with A&M Records, Supertramp's label. If his brother's connections helped, Thomson certainly proved himself deserving when his debut album was released in 1980. Entitled Take A Little Rhythm , the melodic title song was issued as Thomson's debut single in the summer of 1980 and it quickly caught the attention of listeners. With [...]

Whenever I put together a mixtape these days I am probably violating the fundamentals behind what a real mixtape is. The mixtapes I create are just, more or less, a hodgepodge of tracks in no real order. Although, I do put together theme based mixtapes which is closer to the real thing. According to the Wiki resource - "A mixtape is a home-made compilation of songs (typically copyrighted music taken from other sources) recorded in a specific order, traditionally onto a compact audio cassette. The songs can be sequential, but a true, seamless [...]
