Tibi PuiuSo far, I’m really digging Beck’s new Danger Mouse produced album, “Modern Guilt”, already well passing the 8th or 9th listen (who’s keeping track, eh?). Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised when I checked my inbox today, to find an e-mail from Beck’s official, notifying me of his latest video, for the first single off Modern Guilt, “Gamma Ray.” When made a synopsis of the song, when we first talked about it, along with “Orphans,” another…

Should your favorite band call it quits sooner ?
Photo by flannelass I was going over a few of my favorite websites on the net, just earlier, when I cam across an interesting post down at the Guardian music blog, that really caught my attention and made me reflect a bit.

The band shows a brilliant metal/goth spirit, being probably the best artist of the genre while Armin is considered by most to be the best DJ in the whole world. But still, it’s a pretty large bridge to cross. While I have to say the song is a great trance one, it’s nowhere near anything WT’s greatest work….
Naturally 7 ‘Wall of Sound’ Video
I saw this ‘band’ recently, Naturally 7 when they were opening for Michael Buble here in Australia, and I have to say, they are mind blowing!! Hailing from New York City, what they do is called Vocal Play, whereby they use only their voices to sound like instruments. A 7 man group, they have a lot of different kinds of instrument sounds, from the low end of the bass to the high wailing of an…
Official Video for Bushwalla’s new song
So most of you probably have never heard of this artist, Bushwalla, but he’s got some of the maddest skills both in entertaining and performing. He juggles, breathes fire and balances his guitar on his chin. Having released his very first album, “Autodidactical, Freestyle, & Radical”, he’s finally filmed the video for his new song “In The Future”. Very very interesting indeed, so just thought I’d share this little musical secret. Enjoy! With special appearance…
