If a track sounds like something that you've heard before, but in actual fact it's something remarkably different.. it can only be classed as an extremely good thing. GRIZZLY have strengthened that musical minded theory once again, as 'Genie' is one of their most pounding and quirkier numbers to date. The Boomzers embrace the mindset that many of us adopt in this industry and much unlike a title such as "Digital Drug" that doesn't beat around the bush in exemplifying The Boomzers patently loud & heavy chord lines and electro-charged drums, this one is [...]

Classic power chords launch a new station 30 years ago. Ten different station IDs were created for MTV, but it was the fuzzy progression of power chords used for the station launch that became its iconic signature. Guitarist Ray Foote was on the road in North Carolina with his band, Control Group, when he was booked for his first commercial session. A classmate from Bennington College, Jonathon Elias, was given the task to write several musical cues for the new Warner Brothers channel along with...

I know from first hand experience that Ghetto Division have been tearing up Chicago for a while now. I remember they held a house party at their studio loft a few years back and it was amazing... Until the cops showed up (which was a usual occurance at all of our parties.) Anyway, I was just looking over this Do312 Lollapalooza Remix Contest and noticed that Ghetto Division was basically owning the leader board. The first round of voting is over and it looks like all of the GD members have made it into [...]

Dans les vastes terre de l'Etat de l'Illinois, un jeune label s'apprête à faire du bruit et à traverser le continent. Ghetto Division regroupe actuellement dix artistes, jeunes ou expérimentés, essentiellement passionnés de Baltimore, de Ghetto House, de Techno, House Old School et de Raggaetton. Ces jeunes talents se sont fait un nom en jouant régulièrement dans les plus grosses soirées du Nord des Etats-Unis, et sont devenus aussi connu que Kingdom ou Dj Sega . Certains d'entre eux ont signés des productions sur les prestigieux labels Mad Decent , Fool's Gold [...]
I've been paying attention to the ghetto division guys for a while now. Rob Threezy (Rob 3) dropped the chase a while ago on mad decent, and since then I've been interested. I've played the hell out of 'let me show you' by maddjazz, Rampage's 'fire,' and Charlie Glitch's 'stringles.' There's many more worth exploring [...]

[Photo by K.Allcox] Think About Life: Johanna [zshare] An unexpected dance track from our peeps up north. It has its slower parts but overall it succeeds as an original dance floor jam. Helloooo, Montreal. The Big Pink: Dominos (Switch Remix) [zshare] It's been coming up all over the webs lately. You just can't help but jerk it to this killer track. Mochipet: Banana Split (Fliami Vice Remix) [zshare] This was such a good find. [...]

my man J.D. from hip hop update sent this to me a LONG time ago. in fact, when i got it, there were maybe 12 total downloads instead of the 7600+ there are now. i told him that once i came back to the blogosphere, i'd post it. i've been back for a while, so here is the post. it's a phenomenal mix of cudi's best stuff, and might as well be an official mixtape (if it isn't already. my bad, J.D. i'm not sure if it is or not. i might as well keep it 100% with [...]
This year, the '80s turn old. Three of the biggest artists of that decade turn 50 this summer: Madonna (August 16), Michael Jackson (August 29) and, today, Prince. Back in the day, everyone thought he was the weird one, but while Madonna peddles kid's books and lukewarm disco and Michael, well, whatever, Prince is the one whose grown up distinguished. He's fashioned himself an R&B statesman, and his work is as good as ever, despite the popular idea that he's "over." The Rainbow Children (2001), Musicology (2004) and 3121 (2006) stand up to his [...]
