Connected Spirits :: DdotElles Drops ‘Dos Almas’

Posted on November 9, 2016 | Leave a comment

Not that DdotElles ever went anywhere, but my main man is gearing up for a seriously strong push for the end of 2016. After releasing the highly entertaining documentary short efa, DdotElles is back at the tracks with an extremely touching tribute to connections between souls that are bigger than any two individuals can understand. And, as usual, he hits the nail on the head with the lyrics (and the signature film samples we’ve come to know and love his work for). Toss in a production assist from Oktoe, and you’ve got one for the ages. Props as always.

Eternal Journeymen :: Ghost Palace Drops ‘Road To Nowhere (Still Running)’

Posted on November 5, 2016 | Leave a comment

You know how we do it. There are a handful of artists and groups that get automatic shine upon the release of anything, and Ghost Palace sits high on that list. Road To Nowhere (Still Running) is so new, in fact, that I’m sharing it prior to hearing it in its entirety. However, with Progeny on the tracks and Evolve as the wordsmith, I doubt it will be anything less than stellar. Dig it and dig it good.

Sound Escapes :: Soda Diet’s ‘Live At The Thicket’ EP

Posted on November 4, 2016 | Leave a comment

One of my favorite Austin acts that resides on the fringe (much like myself) is the ever psychedelic outfit Soda Diet. Live at the Thicket EP is the latest release, and it’s some wonderful solid live performances of that sound you’ve come to expect and love from Soda Diet… tight enough to nod your head to, but spacey enough to get lost in. More live albums! More studio albums! More Soda Diet!

Glory Times :: Unicycle Football League Meets NFL Films

Posted on November 4, 2016 | Leave a comment

The almighty NFL Films spent some time with the Unicycle Football League of San Marcos, Texas last season. They interviewed many of the players, including creator Larry Gunn, the UniBrawdz, and even the mouth of the south himself, Field Marshall Bradley. They got footage of the Stupor Bowl, and a few other gatherings. The result is a beautiful presentation of how wonderful the process of a small idea turning into a vital part of a community’s culture can be. Cheers to all involved. Click on the picture to view, or simply click here. The league is also looking for a new home… click here to help.

The Evils :: STATIC Reflects On ‘Deadly 7’

Posted on November 3, 2016 | Leave a comment

In a time where it seems like most rap is devoid of substance, it’s completely refreshing to hear folks execute a concept album with commitment and thought. STATIC, an Austin based MC with hopes of reaching people with his message, has done just that with the EP Deadly 7. He touches upon each of the seven deadly sins with a unique perspective and approach, and the end result is a project that will surely provide multiple enriching listens. Check it out, share it, and show some support.

Breaking News :: ‘Apocalypse Later’ By Anthony Maintain, Onry Ozzborn and Meganoke

Posted on October 25, 2016 | Leave a comment

After a stint in Anthony Maintain‘s live set, Apocalypse Later is now seeing the light of day. A banger of an Anthony Maintain track, with a little verbal assistance from Onry Ozzborn and Meganoke, this track is haunting in the best ways.

Sound Synthesis :: Brainwave Releases ‘Surface’

Posted on October 25, 2016 | Leave a comment

Sometimes, change is necessary. Letting go of the old leads to new opportunities for growth and exploration. Surface seems to be Austin-based electronic mastermind Brainwave‘s celebration of this evolution. This album is like an audio journey through the channels of the mind. Very rich, textured, and the kind of depth that draws you in deep. Show some love, show some support, and tell a friend not to sleep on Brainwave.

Soulful Journeys :: Syllable Drops ‘Name Its Beauty’

Posted on October 12, 2016 | Leave a comment

Sometimes, you’ve gotta turn on the beat, slip on your headphones, fire up the mic, and allow yourself to be taken somewhere on a track. It appears that Syllable has done just that with his latest creation, Name Its Beauty. It’s a refreshingly candid song, extremely honest. Take a listen, because it just may inspire you somehow, someway.
