@1_9_8_7_ – OCEAN

It doesn’t matter that I can’t understand this track due to it being sung in Swedish. 1987 could be talking about going for a walk to the shops for all I know. What is important is that it is done beautifully.

Production is wicked good, vocals amazing!!

Bounce this of your drums!!

NOVIA SCOTIA – LUCKY

I’ve got a review request!!

Here I am thinking I’ve just been talking to myself for the last few months 🙂

Now shit gets real 🙂 “Critiquing” the bringer or killer of joyfulness.

NOVIA SCOTIA – LUCKY

Bring on the funk…love it!!

This guys can definitely play and mesh well together. I have to agree with the description on their facebook page about the “glorious trumpets”, loving the brass!!

Love the guitar solo / drum solo and the bass slapping..very enjoyable, would be great to see live.

Vocals are good, lyrics are fun..hot smart chicks are awesome!!

Only improvement would be on production/mixing – the vocals bring them up make a little sharper, give them more “punch” to go with the “funk” if you will!! (can’t believe I just did that rhyme..douche!)

Other then production/mixing improvements its a great track,

I give it 3.5 out of 5 ea

@TakaPerry – Lunar (free download)

Taka Perry really does amaze me!! The musical vision he has is killer, your listening to the future right here!!

So jealous of these young kids and their skills :).

Anyway’s the track “Lunar” is very very nice, I really like the use of the voice decoder, but the lyrics is what made this a wicked track for me.

Keep’em coming!!

@brittneemeghan – Masochist

Brittnee (underscore) Meghan…what can I say…”beautiful”…voice, songwriting…love this track.

I’m trying to find the right descriptive words to use “soothing” is one word my brain is telling me I am feeling, the other is “naughtiness”.

Welcome to my permanent playlist Brittnee (underscore) Meghan & thanks for the “Soothing Naughtiness”!!

@Radiohead- Everything in it’s right place (Rhythmik Remix)

Rhythmik has just made my day, not only has he remixed one of my favourite Radiohead tracks but his done it wickedly!! good shit!!

 

Rhythmik is the constantly evolving sound project of Michael Scarlett; Music producer and key organiser of Melbourne’s creative Culture Jam parties.

The Rhythmik project now explores a vast pallet of styles such as breaks, swing and unique techno, all with the intention of being unique and creative. Rhythmik’s dj sets adopt the philosophy of collecting as much great music from as many places as possible and mashing it up live, creating on the spotremixes and being able to play to any crowd and environment with fun, funky ass music! The Rhythmik live shows also aim to combine this with engaging the crowd with the process of making sounds on the spot in a spontaneous, fun style.

Rhythmik has been lucky enough to play at many great parties across Australia and New Zealand, with memorable gigs being Winter Solstice in Cairns, Maitreya Festival in Melbourne and Reconnect Festival in Adelaide.

With 3 releases so far, the project is still redefining itself and currently focuses on more intricate engaging sounds, fun remixes for dance floors, and beautiful creative music!

A lot of new music has already been written in 2013 covering a range of styles and working with very talented guest musicians. Check it out for something new 🙂

@backpackparty – We are Rebels!

“hold the music in your hands. or in your feet. throw it in the air. toss it into the sea. burn it. try to eat it. hang it on your wall. put it on your grandma’s mantle. check out the trippy rainbows on it. bring it into show and tell. pass it along to your kids. play it really loud on a boombox on the bus. it won’t bother us we promise”

The above comment pretty much sums up their musical style. Backpackparty have a “take the piss” attitude but they make some pretty nice catchy tunes with good lyric’s and great production!

MJ Maguire – Empty House

Definition of an idiot: realising your not listening to anything after 30 minutes of wearing headphones… Definition of a fuckwit: me!

Yep…was going to write a constructive criticism post (had it already to go!) about MJ Maquire, but it turns out there was a sound error at my end which was killing his vocals (insert definition of fuckwit here :))

So I’m apologising for my “fuckwit-ness” and will now give him praise…

MJ’s song writing is awesome. He has a great knack for telling a story. He’s a definitive master of the guitar – a killer if you will – and apparently is even better live.

Massive fan now I have good sound!

@takaperry – Downfall

If your a fan of “post rock, “instrumental” and “chilled” music then 14 year old Taka Perry out of Canberra, Australia has some wickedly good tunes for your ears!!

Taka says he is “soundtracking his life one tune at a time”, if this is so then his life is awesome at the moment. I can’t wait to hear him in 10 years, his going to be killing it!!

I will be follow Taka Perry’s musical career as its going to be huge!!

@WeAreEsme – Takeover

Felt like a little dance so sharing this catchy tune… can’t remember how I found this track. I’ve had it saved ready to blog for 4 days, ha wait I just remembered its was via “Jacob Carmona“.

Esme has lots of potential and should be stepping up to play with the big boys & girls very soon. How do I know this I don’t I’m just making a call so if they do,  I blogged it first and in doing so become god like!

Seriously tho if Esme’s other tracks are anything like “Takeover” then they will be “everywhere” very soon.

good shit!!
