Hey, going to SXSW?!?!?! Well we're not, so skip the taco talk Chauncey. But we can still party on this Tuesday afternoon like we're heading down south, with the assistance of new Sweatshop Union project Leisure Gang . This self-titled single is, like everything SU has done the last couple years, rather raucous and enjoyable, so keep your ear to the ground for the Gang's debut EP next month. Or catch them at SXSW...I guess...if you're into that kind of thing. MP3:: Leisure Gang - Leisure Gang [...]
Urbnet is a label I've always had a lot of time for. This is due to the fact they've always tried to fight the good fight as far as hip hop and progressive electronic/urban type music is concerned. As an example, earlier this year I posted on Emay and mentioned that I thought he was doing some of the most original hip hop I'd heard coming out of Canada. Well, check the tracklisting for URBNET's 7th annual edition of their hip hop compilation and you'll see Emay on there - a small example perhaps, but it heartens [...]

Yes, we usually post the Video Hits on Thursdays, and yes, today is Tuesday, but I had a couple videos I was going to post last week and didn't get to them. So then, you get yourself a quick Tuesday Video Hits, anyone have an issue with that? What's that? Sorry can't hear you, let's proceed! If you were to do the math on the collective pieces that make up the music delivered by genial singer-singwriter David Myles, you might not come up with what one would normally consider a normal formula.

Premieres: Computer Magic – "Running" - The protagonist transcends between reality, time, and space, as Computer Magic's beautiful singer, Danielle Johnson, lulls the character throughout their journey.

by teepoo Vancouver's hip-hop collective have existed since the early 2000s who's rap always had a political underlining. Well they are still up and running with their latest Bill Murray EP . Take a listen to this rather head boppin' track. You won't find them rhyming anything about big booties here. "Welcome to my Makeshift Kingdom."

Unless I'm mistaken, we missed the Video Hits last week, but we're back with vengeance this week: four great videos from a fairly diverse group of artists. We're leading off this version of the Video Hits with Sweatshop Union's vid for Makeshift Kingdom off of their awesome Bill Murray EP . I had actually been saving this video for a future hip hop version of the video hits, two things happened: 1. It was taking too long to get a good group of hip hop vids together, and 2. To chronicle [...]

"This beat is sick." That was all I or any of my friends could say. Sweatshop Union is seriously sick. While they are new to me and probably new to most of the US (they recently played at SXSW in Austin), they've created a name for themselves in their motherland, Canada.

I have to say, I do enjoy having a guess at the meaning behind things like songs & album titles, even though I am rarely correct. If I were to hazard a guess at the intent behind Vancouver hip hop collective Sweatshop Union naming their new EP The Bill Murray EP it would be some analogy along the lines of "they've tried the major studio approach in the past and now they are making music their way, doing what they believe in". Or, they may just really enjoy Bill Murray movies, [...]
In Search of Raquoon Blowjob at the Kosha Dillz Oy Vey bash
Raquoon Blowjob is precisely the hip-hop act I'm looking for down here. They're young, but old enough to lace Back to the Future references. They're urban, but kind of on the fence... Support indie media! Read the rest at thephoenix.com . . .
