FREE DOWNLOAD: Dezaray Dawn – ‘HIDE AWAY REMIX’ by BusCrates 16-Bit Ensemble
‘Hide Away‘ is one of the smoother tracks off of my Chameleon EP. What better way to lean back on it then to give it that “low-rider” vibe. East Coast meets West Coast as Pittsburgh, PA producer BusCrates 16-bit Ensemble gives this song a Long Beach groove… Available on Bandcamp for the FREE-SKI!! West Side – Son!

Video: Electric Wire Hustle ‘Waters’
Electric Wire Hustle. They really don’t even need any introduction. This band makes me still believe in music, when the world is made of up poppy-auto-tuned-beautiful- non-singing messes. From their self titled EP , ‘Waters’ is definitely a favorite . Check out the video made at the Red Bull Academy Sessions in London.

NEW ISSH! Erik L & 7even :Thirty “Rhyme Travelin”
Ok my music collection holds various genres from jazz to bluegrass (Yes, I know). When I listen to this EP, “Rhyme Travelin“, I hear so many different sounds and influences, it makes my ears happy 
…. Swedish Producer Erik L collaborated with Jackson, MS emcee 7even:Thirty to create some “futurefunkylectrosoulop” for y’all to absorb into. I’m very selective on my hip hop…. Lets just say that Im loving this one! Take a moment to smell the sounds then just go ahead and buy the damn thing!! Available on iTunes and Amazon as well!

MICHAEL. I miss you…….
I’ve been called a punk about this but whatever, I still have a hard time dealing with the passing of MICHAEL JACKSON. Its like Im in some parallel universe where he MJ never existed and nothing is real anymore. The only thing I was able to sit through on the day of his passing was this video done by DWELE of “Human Nature“. It just made sense. Miss you Mike……
