In honor of the HRC campaign for two precedent setting trials regarding marriage equality, my man Henry + The Invisibles has created a new song focusing on that very topic. Share it, download it, play it, and remember, equality is something you should be aware of and support on a daily basis.

Just before all of the madness that was SXSW took place, the homies at Expolded Drawing dropped an amazing sampler showcasing some of the talent that performed at this year’s showcase and in the past. I was lucky enough to get placement on this compilation, and the rest of the lineup is insane. Take a listen, take a copy, and tell a friend.
Dope artwork as well from Glory Gold & Glitter.

Instant classic. My man DDotElles is without a doubt one of the best pure songwriters in Austin right now. Combined with some top-notch production from Delano Taylor, this album is well set up to take over systems this summer. Elles not only puts together the words well, but his delivery is raw as hell… refreshing in an era where it’s more about being cool than it is being genuine. Cop this right now.

from the digital desk of No Wraps (Vol. 2):
“This is a blunt themed Instrumental album with producers from SATX to ATX down to the RGV. Much love to all the producers that have donated their time to send a beat for this. This tape is a free download and put together for people to listen to. Download and enjoy.”
I contributed a little ditty about Garcia Vega.

“I made this video about a year ago and totally forgot about it. It’s a song off my ‘State Machine‘ full length.”

Here we are, barely out of the winter woods, and Click-Clack has gotten together with Coraverde to provide you a little summer music already. The combo is known as Bluegreen, and they’ve got you covered on all fronts : the beats bang, there’s thoughtful lyrics, there’s love songs, both artists hold their own with the flow and the singing, and it’s long enough to be enjoyable but short enough to leave you wanting more.

If these guys don’t win this year’s Austin Music Award for Best Hip-Hop/Rap, I will be extremely surprised.

from the digital desk of Roger Sellers:
“This album will be released in a steady progression. Here’s what I gon do: Starting from this Friday to Dec. 28th, I will release a brand new song to the public for free. You will have one week to download the song for free, in which time I will be writing an entirely new song to be released the Friday thereafter. By doing this, I will be writing the album as it is simultaneously being released. This will give the album a sense of true intuition to the listener. Remember, you will only have one week to download the songs for free so keep up…Im excited about this one.. it will be called “8 Songs” and will be officially done and released on Dec. 31, 2012.”
