When Reach insistently repeats the refrain "Hip Hop Is Alive" on his new album Live at RecordBar , he isn't celebrating the latest success of Wale or 2 Chainz. Reach is a true believer in the original purist ideals of hip hop. The new release- his fourth full-length album- serves as affirmation of Reach's principles. Supported by the funk/jam band Mouth , DJ Ataxic and vocalists Schelli Tolliver, Sausha Brooks and Vance Ashworth, the well-recorded collaboration brings out the best in each participant. Live at RecordBar [...]

It's difficult to find any two people in the world able to communicate the same thing together at the same time. For The Mouth , jangly rock duo Alfie Comito and Joey Puleio have an eerie sense of one another that works to bring their over-the-top rants into stark harmony. For any fan of The Housemartins, The Mouth could be Brooklyn's answer to upbeat folk-pop madness. The group promises more videos and shows are on the way, so stay tuned. And check out some cuts from their barn-burning EP 'Talk About' below. - Mike Levine (@Goldnuggets) [...]

Since Boston's Blasé posted his debut track 'Mouths' last November we're still no closer to finding out who's behind the solo project. A new single called 'Facade' made its way online this week ( download here ). This time round the dreaminess is replaced by a more straight ahead indie pop feel, sounding a little like early TV On The Radio to me. Blasé - 'Facade' [...]

Other than the blitzkrieg of festival event news and showcase flyer bombardments, the week brought us strange brews and kernels of inspiration. Top news tells us that Azealia Banks covered the Strokes' "Barely Legal" amid tweets of her working with Ariel Pink, a sketchy fatal drive by on French Montana's tour bus left one fan dead, and in what ought to be a new column called 'This Week in Morrissey beefs' we can add Paul McCartney to the list of the latest Mozzer feuds....

Shigeto has worked his magic on Sun Glitter 's well-recieved piece "Mouth," a cut lifted from their recently released 73. From a gently chaotic rhythm, composed of a multitude of percussive textures, Zach Saginaw's rework evolves gradually, taking time to ripen into a melodic, house driven groove. [Shigeto] alh [...]
With music characterized by lush melodies , tweeked vocal samples, and rich beatwork, Sun Glitters has caught the attention of many listeners. Now he has announced the release of a new 73 titled "Mouth" that will be part of Lefse Records' single series . The single arrives December 18th [...]
You might remember that we already reported about the upcoming new double single Mouth/Tight by Victor Ferreira aka the man behind chillwaving glo-fi project SUN GLITTERS. The limited 7-inch-vinyl of these two tracks will be released on December 18 as part of a special single series from the label Lefse Records. And everyone who buys the
Blasé Mouths “Blasé is a super secret super new solo act from Boston, Ma. I’ve played in bands my whole life and sometimes I write songs that I instinctively feel selfish about. I’m not sure if it’s in fear of change or what but usually I would tuck them away in a folder on my desktop, but I also feel music should be shared. I want these songs to rely on emotions rather than who I am or what bands I’ve been in or how many likes on Facebook. I [...]

Any idea who Blasé is? Me neither. Well, I know its a solo act from Boston. I know said soloist is in other bands. I know its a secret and they probably don't know about it. And that the debut single 'Mouths' was written about running your mouth before thinking it through. The first Blasé EP will be out before the end of the year. If you recognize the fuzzy culprit in the picture - holler! Download audio file (Blase-Mouths.mp3) Download Blasé 'Mouths' @ Soundcloud .

If you're naming your band after one of the most revered albums ever made, you sure-as-hell better have the songs to back it up. We'll let Danish three-piece The White Album off, for Your Mouth Is A Fist - the first cut from their upcoming mini-album - is a wonderful slice of Scandinavian indie-pop; all yearning lyrics and stop-start musical work-outs. The upcoming record, Conquistador , is released on September 24th and was recorded in the bands own forest cabin, and we're promised " six neo indie-folk tracks, rich in depth, heart and musicality ".

This is Mouthful of Diamond From Sierra Leone (Kanye West Vs. Phantogram), so essentially three song in one made by a fourth party. Whew. When Wait What Wednesay was asked why he chose these songs he responded, "I just decide to put songs together, and it’s usually because two songs share some feeling or one brings out a more subtle element in the other. In this case, the thematic match is pretty obvious, but had been wanting to mash up something with phantogram, and liked how kanye’s voice sounded after the drop." There you have it. [...]

Italian producer Mouth ( who did the very good Schloggers EP ) put out another EP called ' Kalamazoo ' at the end of the year and it's gone under the radar a little. Which is a shame, because underneath the stylistic madness he makes very nice songs. This release is part house, part pop music and even has some small hints of bossa nova in places. It's really quite unique stuff that is deserving of a bit more attention.... Mouth - Kalamazoo [...]

brass 2: mouth by minibosses Wow, this is a bit of a blast from my past. About seven or eight years ago, I went through a stage in my musical trajectory where I was a little obsessed with video game soundtracks. Of course, this bled into becoming a fan of video game cover bands like the NESkimos and, of course, the Minibosses. It's been a while since I've had a reason to listen to this band, but it seems they've got a new album out titled Brass 2: Mouth , which is the [...]

Learn how to live the way you want. Be your own mystery. Allow yourself your messy feelings, your wild heart, your inappropriate opinions. Time moves in only one direction, baby. From past to future, from order to disorder, we are ticking always towards entropy. Patterns exist only to take away our Time; keep us chasing our tails when there are fields full of Laws to be broken. Like Gravity, Art. The only thing you've been waiting for is yourself, so promise me you will hurry, run. We are crumbling, even now. MP3: Phantogram - Mouthful [...]

Following up last year’s massive “Mouthful Of Diamonds”, Phantogram are set to release a new mini-record on November 1st called Nightlife . On first single, “Don’t Move”, everything seems to be more focused, and a bit less spastic. There is certainly more attention to detail on Sarah Barthel’s vocals on this. “Keep Your Body Still” will be hard to do here.
