HARD! That was the first thing that came to mind when I heard this album. This album is Spank Rock meets Justice. Great production by Grahm Zilla and excellent raps and vocals by Canada based Isis. Debut self-titled album in stores now. Sweet 16 [See post to listen to audio] LBG (Little Booty Girl) [See post to listen to [...]
Junior Boys' latest effort "Begone Dull Care" sticks to their signature sound but still give us something new. I featured two of the "slower" tracks on this record which actually happen to be my favorites. Check out for the change on "Dull to Pause" (at around 2:45), it picks up quite nicely. Dull To Pause [See post [...]
I have been diggin' this record all weekend! Such a smooth album with great energy and contains a refreshing mix of digital and live instrumentation. There are some great dance tracks in here, just don't expect them to have the heavy bass that will rattle your trunk...still fly though. The Whitest Boy Alive is a [...]
Gray Kid was one of the FIRST artists that I posted on this blog when I started last summer. I was waiting on his album to be released since then and when I tried looking up release dates...NADA. Well, looks like he's handing out a few tracks for free, so go to his site and [...]
Man, Asher has come a long way since I last put him up on the blog last year. The guy's got a hit single (College), plenty of buzz, and a highly anticipated album dropping on 4-20 (of course). This album has plenty of promise and should be a commercial success and critically acclaimed. Be By Myself [See [...]
New Cudi track featuring Kanye and Common. Scratches done by A-Trak. It's an interesting play on Lady Gaga's "Poker Face" I Poke Her Face [See post to listen to audio]
This is sure to have as many quotables as "Borat"...which is not necessarily a good thing. Movie looks hilarious though. "Bruno" hits theaters July 10th. Bruno Movie Site
Man! I have been trying to find this track on mp3 for weeks! My bro has this on vinyl, but i lack the patience to grab his turntable and sync it to my computer to make this mp3 happen. Anyway, glad I didn't have to do that...and now, neither do you. Jahoviah in Dub Majesty [See post [...]
Daft Punk is set to produce the soundtrack for the sequel to the 1982 groundbreaking Disney film "Tron". The film concept and visuals were way ahead of it's time. Let's hope Disney gets some aid from PIXAR with the effects. "Tron 2.03 is set for a 2011 release.
Yup! It's here. Bookmark us on your iPhone and share us with your friends/fellow iPhonians/twitter followers/bathroom stalls/high school lockers...umm...you get it.
New Mos track! Bassline? Check. Minimalist percussion? Check. Hand clap? Check. This song grew on me AS I was listening to it. I dig. His new album "The Ecstatic" is set to in June of this year. Quiet Dog [See post to listen to audio] Mos Def Official Site
This song is FRESH! Sebstian Tellier (pronounced tell-yay) is a french proudcer/musician and is 4 records deep. His sound has evovled with time but his efforts have remained the same. Fellas, this Kilometer video has PLENTY of "wifeys" in it. Ladies, i'm sorry...it's not our fault. We're a sucker for girls wearing form fitting granny [...]

I'm really feeling this track by Arlington, Virginia based DJ/producer Sharam. It features Kid Cudi and has a really fresh sound that you wouldn't expect from an acid house and techno DJ She Came Along (feat Kid Cudi) [See post to listen to audio] Sharam Myspace Download: Amazon
I put this song up months ago, but had to repost it after listening to it on "Nip Tuck" and "Eastbound & Down" (both great shows). The song is prouduced by Shawn Lee and features Nino Moschella. Touch The Sky [See post to listen to audio] Shawn Lee Official Site

Wow! This ad is amazing! Hmmm...I wonder how many takes it took them to get this right? Puma L.I.F.T site
Great remix featurin Fabolous, Luda, Juelz, and Rick Ross. The Dream's definitely doing his thing. I'm really diggin' the magazine cover and article feature concept. Rockin' That Sh*t (Remix) [See post to listen to audio]
...from the underground to the super main stream. This track is hot! Will.I.Am DEF knows what's good. I'll be sick of this song in a week, but until then, enjoy. Boom Boom Pow [See post to listen to audio]
I'm really diggin' this album by Swedish artist Kleerup. You see, I'm a sucker for synths...but I don't always want to dance to them. Kleerup's production uses a great combination of melodic synths and just the right tempo. It's mellow, but not necessarily "lounge music". Check him out. Until We Bleed (featuring Lykke Li) [See post to [...]
