Once more, here is this first MAP of the new decade, January's edition of the Music Alliance Pact . For those of you who don't know about MAP, it's a collection of music blogs from around the world who band together once a month to shed light on up-and-comers from their home countries. It's sort of like the WTO without the human rights violations. After the jump you'll find music from 34 nations spanning the globe. If you'd like to be considered for this feature, drop by the comments section with a [...]

La propuesta para la primera edición de MAP del 2010 viene por parte de una de las bandas más energéticas y frescas de nuestra escena, me refiero a La Mente y su último lanzamiento titulado Para Los Muertos y Los Vivientes, ¿su estilo? pues La Mente bebe de todo, pero sin duda el punto que más llama la atención en sus creaciones es esa inclusión exacta de beats electrónicos, fusionados con música tropical o hasta el recientemente explotado sonido amazónico, el grado de experimentación desatado provoca en cualquiera que asista a sus presentaciones una locura insostenible, [...]

Sacred Heart is comprised of members from a few different Scandinavian countries, and it seems their sound has the perfect blend of natural influences, one might expect from bands of the region, intermingling throughout. Minimalistic sections that explode into dense layers of sound; an organic, haunting, dark, and icy feel. The band's self-titled EP will be available through The Perfect Hoax Records very soon. MP3 : Sacred Heart - Elevator Endeløs MP3 : [...]
Learn a little about Sacred Harp singing and check out some videos after the jump.
The Issue Project courtyard on a beautiful afternoon was a perfect site to hear a selection of music by three different musicians. Greg Jamie's pure unadorned set was sandwiched in-between two experimental improvisational sets by Sacred Harp from Virginia and Honne Wells with Juan Comas. Sacred Harp's compositional arrangements with [...]
