In 2013, running an independent record label-whether based in brick and mortar or digital only-isn't exactly an explosively promising proposition. If you've got some interesting musician friends, a little capital, some cool cover art, and a lot determination, however, you can still present a cohesive sound and vision that carries you from release to release, building your niche one listeners, one stream, one download at a time. It can seem painstaking, but if your vision is clear and connects, it can be well worth it-far more so, in the long run, than the quick cash out. [...]

Modern Shark Sampler Tape Number Three by Modern Shark
The Only One (House Wigger 2.0) by Baje One (of Junk Science) " This is a song that I made a while back, in like 2009. Snafu made the beat, which is superdope in my opinion. We considered using the song on a Junk Science project (“A Miraculous Kind Of Machine”) but Snaf wasn’t feeling the song as much as I was so we decided to scrap it. Democracy. Since then it’s been sitting around in my itunes. I’ve been kinda nervous about releasing it… on some “Oh Lord, please [...]

Pixelated by Junk Science Junk Science is Baje One on the mic and DJ Snafu on the beats. Simple. Scott Thorough is their fellow Nuclear Family crew member/producer extraordinaire. Snafu and Scott Thorough made the beats for “Phoenix Down” using ALL original music played on 8-bit synthesizers (the same tools available to the musicians who created the original scores for The Legend Of Zelda, Contra, and Ninja Gaiden). They layered their compositions with heavy breakbeats and set the stage for Baje to do his thing on the mic. Yes, this is some [...]

The evolving musical style takes elements from folk, hip-hop, motel-lounge crooning and various electronic genres, and is possibly best [...]
