Ever since the days of .::liquidstereoproject, I have been blessed to become friends with the extremely beautiful and talented Suzanna Choffel. She is a genuinely amazing singer, and a wonderful person. Tune in to “The Voice” this season, and hopefully we can all watch Suzanna reach that next level that she so truly deserves. Enjoy her blind audition:

You know the drill folks… new music from some of your favorite locals! Download, listen, share, and encourage others to do the same!

Get it. Listen to it. Share it. This is my ode to the music that inspires me, and part one of what will become an ongoing series. My take on the mixtape may be a bit skewed by traditional standards, but it’s the most honest portrayal of how I feel about the music that influences me… that I love and hate… and that I want others to know I am aware of. I also want those people to become aware of how there are common threads among music that some may not have envisioned upon first listen.

Notes Floats and Fluid One Studios are back at it on the visual tip, and this time, it’s like an indie moving painting. These guys are definitely letting their respective imaginations run wild, and the result are very memorable videos for very good songs. “There Ya Go” originally was on The Transfer, but the remix is available here. Enjoy!

Love means many things to many different people… there is a lot of ground to cover when you approach such a wide ranging and all encompassing topic. This is a musical exercise in discovery and understanding of both myself and that universal love that hangs around out there… enjoy it!

These cats boast a heavy roster : Anom and Brokebread (Big Package), Emcee and DKOI (Sex, Death, Credits), Progress and Anna Little (who, along with DKOI form Ill Iterate), Joe AveRage and DJ Shoestring. WhyBe? holds down an ill monthly at Plush, aptly titled Hip Hop That Doesn’t Suck.
These guys are also insanely on point where it counts… with the beats and rhymes. Observe and listen:

The homie Kinder is the illest kid doing it right now. Not since Pete Rock have a heard so many dope beats used so sparsely… what he considers throwaways, most would consider gold. Need proof?

A former Bostonian, now an Austinite… Anthony Maintain has become an integral part of the beat scene that has grown in the capitol city. After time with the Locksmiths and countless side projects/collaborations, the time has come for his first instrumental solo release, and it’s a monster. I could go on and on about how great it is, or I can just tell you that it’s a steal at $5. It is actually less smart to not download this.
