  • Adam & Alma – Smile For Me, Sun

    Dark and dare I say romantic… similar to the romantic vibe you typically hear on a kate bush track but with a smooth edge electronic bed.  I also hear a little radiohead on this track as well.  You can download this entire ep for free from their label site here.

    Bio:

    Adam & Alma is a young electro duo from Stockholm, Sweden, who now releases its debut-EP Back To The Sea. The duo consists of Ellen Arkbro and Johan Graden. With roots in jazz, and also strongly influenced by American indie pop and Swedish electro, they create their own musical universe. Electronic sounds, Johan’s piano and Ellen’s voice make a unique sonority that brings the electronic back to the organic. Back To The Sea is a collection of the first songs they made together.

  • NEW: Whitey – Dinosaur

    After what has felt like an eternity since his last release, albeit a leaked version of his album, “Great Shakes” back in 2007 is a new full length from the man himself, Whitey!   His new album is titled, “Canned Laughter” and can be purchased here from Amazon:  Canned Laughter.      On this particular track whitey incorporates more dance floor ethos with a driving rock edge floor stomper in Dinosaur.  And all i have to say is, welcome back Whitey!  By the way the track starts off with “canned laughter” so let this track breath for a minute for it to really build.

    He also has a new blog up here: http://njwhitey.wordpress.com/

    Lyrics:

    DINOSAUR
    DIDNT KNOW, HE WOULD FALL
    -NOW HE’S GONE.
    YEARS GO BY, SO MUCH TIME..
    NUMBER ONE, LIVING IT, KILLING IT
    -NOW HE’S GONE.
    FORM TO FORM, LIFE KEEPS ON

    EACH IN TURN
    HAS A DAY IN THE SUN.
    LIFE GOES ON
    FORM TO FORM- TOOTH AND CLAW.
    YOU AND ME,
    AND EVERYBODY YOU CAN SEE,
    ARE ANIMALS –
    AND ANIMALS RISE AND FALL.

    WE’LL NEVER END
    WE CARRY ON
    AND WE CAN NEVER KNOW
    WHAT WE’LL BECOME.
    IT’S SOMETHING OF A SYMPHONY
    WHERE THE LITTLE NOTES
    WERE YOU AND ME.
    SKIN AND BONE, THATS ALL OF US
    BECOME THE PAST, BECOME THE DUST
    BUT WE’LL NEVER END — WE NEVER END.

  • Audio Drums Exclusive: Color Theory – It Must Be Halloween

    Got my hands on the latest Color Theory track.  This track is taken off the forthcoming full length release which is currently untitled and due out August 4.
    Color Theory (aka Brian Hazard) has ventured in some new territory on this track by including chip tune sounds in his arrangement.  My favorite part of this track is hearing the laughter in Brian’s voice when he sings “So I laugh”

    Color Theory – It Must Be Halloween

    Lyrics:

    It Must Be Halloween

    ©2010 Brian Hazard (ASCAP)

    You emerge

    Your face drawn in black and white

    Your corset laced up just right

    A vampire in fishnets

    “So,” I laugh

    “What are you supposed to be?”

    You smile but won’t answer me

    Is this a trick or treat?

    Master of the cheap disguise

    Sometimes I can’t believe my eyes, I tell you

    (You/I/We) sure know how to make a scene

    It must be Halloween

    Half asleep

    We race home to beat the dawn

    I cut through a corner lawn

    And slice my head on a branch

    “Hang on — I just need to catch my breath”

    You say that I look like death

    And toss back your head to laugh in revenge.
