Astronautica

Posted: 20th March 2012 by Dave in Albums

There are many artists out there trying to find exposure. There are many DJs looking for music they like. Sometimes it finds them. Astronautica is one of the many sounds I enjoy listening to and playing on Nerd Show, and I think you should consider the free download of her album on Bandcamp: http://astronautica.bandcamp.com/ I’ve [...]

Got this one on eBay recently, and though I won’t be playing it on the show tonight, it’s something I’ll play in the near future:

This is going to be quick and dirty. We’re talking about nearly 300 tracks to listen to, all told. Lots of good stuff too, as if there weren’t enough excellent music out there right now… 3:33 – EP-1 The definition of Crunchy Hip-Hop.

Del – Golden Era I wish I could say that I’ve been a Del fan since (insert early guest cameo here), but, truth be told, he’s always rubbed me the wrong way. The problem with Del is that he’s an MC who needs a DJ and a producer who can blend, yes BLEND Del into [...]

Atmosphere – She’s Enough single For some reason, without knowing too much about Slug, I think he’s turned a corner in his life. When Life Gives You Lemons… was a great album, but it had so much angst. She’s Enough is the most positive track I’ve heard from Atmosphere in….ever? They’ve had albums devoted to [...]

Federico Aubele – Berlin 13 Unbeknownst to me, I’d heard this guy on one of the Thievery Corporations compilations, and once I started listening to the characteristic vocals and Spanish guitar, it came flooding back. This release highlights the changes in the artist’s life while living in Berlin, and 13 is the “death” Tarot card, [...]

Zion I & The Grouch – Rockit Man Single Tracklist – Rockit Man (feat. Silk E), Instrumental, Drop It On the 1, Instrumental These tracks are solid.  I don’t mean that just to be nice, either.  Zion I has had my ear for a while and his vocal style is top notch, but The Grouch [...]
