[ via ] I got ever so lucky yesterday when Chino Hills melodic expert, Teebs , uploaded his soundcloud with two new tunes and one of which was for free download, 'Everyone Alive Wants Answers'. The soundcloud download limit was reached and I just thought I'd give everyone a second chance to share this sound that must be heard by all. So refreshing to hear this dude's chimes, chirps, and creature blooming creations again. Truly magnificent...

Seattle beat experimentalist, Tavvish , is one guy worth listening to. His most recent track, 'Once a Day', stretches out at five minutes long only to leave you feeling like it was much longer. It's down-tempo fantasy chiming loop horn, wish washes and ties all focus and thought directly towards its uplifting soul teasing melody. It's one hell of a sound on this one. Listen and download a compilation of all of Tavvish's works thus far at the link below or at his soundcloud . Tavvish - Once a Day [...]
Seattle duo, Beat Connection , dropped their EP, Surf Noir , earlier this year through Tender Age , and I must say this is a perfect listen to ease those summer-end feelings. The EP's star track, 'In the Water', takes on this blissful pop front that pumps you up, let's you loose, and make you feel like your "In the Water" literally. Such a summer gem; almost reminds me of Cut Copy. Poppy synth-wave goodness. Stream the whole EP on their soundcloud and purchase it here . [...]
The second single cometh, and it's a beaut. I must admit that it's taken a while for "Meteorites" to grow on me, but several listens later its combination of swirling pianos, euphoric synths, warm bass throbs (quiet at the back!) and another star turn from Elsa Esmeralda have won me over. Yet more high-quality, uplifting drum and bass from London Elektricity, who is really rather good at this sort of thing. The video, a science fiction epic referencing everything from War of the Worlds to Star Wars via Silent Running and Atari's classic Asteroids, is great too, and you can [...]
Thought Tempo of the Zoom Lens collective, recently drops a dream grazer entitled, 'I Could, But I Won't'. The track streams a spacious uplifting drag along of sampled vocals that dip in and out of a wavy melodic rift that rides out on an easy-listening spree of pure greatness. He is definitely going to go places with his beatific rhythms. Watch out. Stream all of his wonderous bangers on his soundcloud . (right click + save as to download below) Thought Tempo - I Could, But I Won't [...]
Further underscoring the worldwide trance phenomenon is the recent wave of astounding Japanese productions on the label Otographic Arts . Coming from a nation known for the best quality cars, video games, and electronics, debuting March 2nd are Hiroyuki ODA's latest uplifting jewels. Highlighting Hiro Kanzaki's astonishing attention to detail, Impulsion employs a sickeningly catchy bassline and mixes in a plethora of melodies all working together in perfect harmony. Also on the release comes Ignite , a track that truly lights up the brain's pleasure centers with its captivating breakdown. [...]

As a teenager, Matus Lenicky ate up the big beat grooves of Fatboy Slim and The Prodigy. Now, he lists among his favorite artists psy-mongers Shpongle and Infected Mushroom. He also happens to love movie scores. The world currently knows Matus as B-Complex. Intricate, eccentric and deep, his productions call upon a bevy of zany influences. Yet the Slovakian brings a remarkably original feel to his drum n' bass- Beautiful Lies has a dangerously unorthodox break running over it. Actually, nothing about the song feels "typical" at all. The dark harmonies, spliced vocals and grinding basslines [...]

Even if this gentleman has no idea what's going on or what his grandkids are making him due, there is something beautiful, something that speaks to the human spirit of perseverance, how we can experience the worst life throws at us and carry on and live life to one day dance with his kids and grandkids. Some people pick themselves up and carry on like a champ, other people just wallow in their own pity and become broken by it. I hope I end up [...]
...a profoundly honest and powerfully uplifting track.

I previously posted a track from Tilly and the Wall some time ago which I still listen to this day and get the same feeling that I did the first time I heard it. Realising this fact makes me content because it hopefully reaffirms the notion that the songs I post on this blog will live on long after I end up no longer updating it. Well here's another that I hope to see have the same longevity as " Rainbows in the Dark ". It has a beat thats hot enough to grace any dance or hip hop dance [...]
Dopo le sperimentazioni anni '80 di gruppi come Red Hot Chili Peppers , Faith No More, Beastie Boys e Urban Dance Squad, i 311 sono stati tra i primi (insieme ai vari Rage Against The Machine, Downset e Clawfinger) a portare avanti il discorso del crossover fra rap e rock. Per capire il sound dei 311 immaginatevi il rap-rock tinto di funk dei primi Red Hot Chili Peppers ed aggiungetevi una grandissima componente reggae/ska, il che sulla carta potrebbe avvicinarli ai seminali Fishbone...ma solo sulla carta, infatti i 311 hanno sempre e comunque preferito le [...]
Having followed the advice contained within R. Kelly's "The World's Greatest" and got precisely nowhere, I felt it was time to write a letter of complaint.
311 , the stoner rock-rap-reggae band straight from the heart of the Midwest, Omaha, NE, is back at it again. Nick Hexum and the gang have released the first single from the upcoming disc , Uplifter , due June 2nd. The selection is titled "Hey You" and it is Hexum's ode to his "constant companion" and "long time friend," music. The track winds its way from their distinctive intro riffs to a rock reggae chorus aided by a verse that finds S.A. singing about his one wish, "for this music to be an uplift…all the people can sing [...]
