Consider the Source

Toting the loaded description sci-fi Middle Eastern funk, Consider the Source is a melting pot of Middle Eastern scales, pschadelic jams, and a hard rocking rhythm section. The band features Gabriel Marin on fret-less double neck guitar, John Ferrara on bass, and Justin Ahiyon on drums. The three musicians cite their influences as including The Bad Plus, The Mahavishnu Orchestra, King Crimson, and Tool. However, a major source of their musical power can be attributed to a trip the band took to India, where they studied the complex tala (rhythm) of North India, and the micro-tonal scale structure and melodic ornamentation of South India.

Over the past two years, Consider the Source has toured the US seven times over, sharing the stage with heralded musicians such as Victor Wooten and Wyclef Jean. In the fall they will be releasing their new album entitled “That’s What’s Up,” which will no doubt be an exciting record, showcasing all of their influences- from Middle Eastern to Indian to progressive rock and more. Look for them on their tour as they come to a venue near you!

I Run to Your Heart by Nicholas Guida
Review by: Drew Lewis



Nicholas Guida submits a totally refreshing sound with the new single, “I Run to Your Heart.” The song begins with a churning guitar part that perfectly frames the lyrics and swells to a perfect melting pot of blues, folk, and lo-fi. The instrumentation is exceptional and Nicholas’ voice has a clear resonance that compliments the arrangement. Be on the lookout for more terrific music on the horizon from Nicholas Guida.

Heaven Is Where “Walking With Ghosts”
Review by: Tracy Lewis



“Walking With Ghosts”
This incredible song/video strikes on a chord of the soul and mind creating a moment of reflection on the correlation of action/reaction and the manifestation it takes upon us and others around us.
In a world where turmoil rages, songs like this help to make people comprehend that we ALL need to be more accountable for actions and being more accepting of the vast differences/beliefs of the many who inhabit our world.
With such self evaluation we can envision and create a wholeness and completeness of both the world and ourselves for we all have but one life to live.

LIKE THIS LIKE THAT by MANSION T.U.T.T ft/ Meek Mills
Review by Drew Lewis

Mansion T.U.T.T. has a flow that shows great promise in a genre that has become full of
cliché image and bling. His lyrics are raw and represent an urban landscape that is not being represented in a factual way by other artists of his genre.
The production quality is superb and the vocals are crisp.

TormentA

Their music can be classified as new age thrash metal, giving fans a fine blend of thrash as tormenta hears it. a chance for metal heads to let loose the metal demon inside.tormenta promises to deliver an onslaught of heavy riffs and performance that will leave metal marks to every metal heads.

Tormenta started with Dhai(drums) Lai (guitar)wanting to form a band playing the music of the greats such as, Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer,Sepultura, etc. Practicing with other local metal bands like Locura and Serenity Dies, the search for lead guitarist, bass and vocals was on.Various musicians jammed with them but never clicked with the duo. Mabi(guitar) joined the band through the help of Chippe’(Serenity Dies), sharing the same dream as Lai n Dhai, Tormenta grew strong. All the while Mu-k(Locura drummer) did vocals for a few practice sessions just for the fun it. At the time A.D(Phormentera) was filling in for vocals and only the position of bass was open. Bringing in the heavily Iron maiden influenced Riley(Ex-Delirium XIII Bassist) into a heavier,faster music.

Tormenta started to practice for their first debut show(Anti-drug campaign show june 29th, 2006) with Mu-k as guests to play covers of Sepultura. On stage when Mu-k went up, it felt right and the rest of the band felt that this was the beginning of TORMENTA.

2009 heavily influenced from the great thrash pioneers J355y accepted his oath to fulfill on the bass as Riley departed.with a lot of hard work and overcoming lot of obstacles during the course.

TormentA released there first album “Tormented Souls” on April 30,2010

While mixing a metal sound with honest, open lyrics. This band wears its heart on its sleeve by taking their diverse musical influences and crafting a sound that is completely original and refreshing in todays music scene. Lets all hope this band keeps pushing the limits and creating songs that not only are enjoyable to listen to but provoke thought about a world we all inhabit.

The newest installment from “Chainsaw Murphy” the British folk/grunge project
entitled “The days before we die”.


Album Review by: Drew Lewis


The new release entitled, “The days before we Die,” is an album that is steeped in honesty and raw emotion. The artistry of Chainsaw Murphy is evident on each track as he paints a soundscape taking the listener on a journey through the joys and pains of love, loss, and addiction. Although the lyrical subject material can seem heavy at times, Chainsaw Murphy’s voice has an ethereal, relaxed quality that offsets the bleak portrayal of modern loneliness and heartbreak.


The artist presents the work with a full comprehension of the emotional groundwork laid bare throughout the album. “This Damn City,” and “Love is Never Fair,” invoke images of mental anguish and heartache in an industrious metropolitan landscape. The title track is a melancholy treatment of loss which culminates with a beautiful, celestial organ creating a sense of peace.
The Calm” precedes “The Thunderstorm,” and the two tracks work well together in expressing the tranquility and turmoil that transpires within each of us.


The album, “The Days before We Die,” by Chainsaw Murphy is available June 26, 2010 at:

With the 4th release from Smooth Deep comes another EP called “Tsar”.
Tsar is the slavic term for king/emperor.

The EP is a eclectic collaboration with artists and producers from Russia, Ukraine, The Balkans, South America, Turkey and the UK. Russian Producer Speen Beatz has a significant presence on production.


Album Review By: Drew Lewis

“Tsar,” OK! Records latest release by up and coming hip hop artist, “Smooth Deep,” is a diversified mix of styles that represents an artist who is not afraid to stretch the creative and musical boundaries of the hip hop genre. Smooth Deep presents his music with a passion and conviction that resonates not only in the faster tempo tracks but also in the slower jams that are interspersed throughout the album.

Noteworthy tracks were “I’m Coming,” and “Not too late.” Each track is a distinctive look into the creativity of the artist, “Smooth Deep.” Be looking for the digital release of “Tsar,” in July 2010 or pick up a physical copy through the digital store on

“There’s a Light,” the first single and video from Reno Bo’s debut album, Happenings And Other Things (Electric Western Records) was released 4.20.10.


Reno’s an ex-member of The Mooney Suzuki & Albert Hammond Jr’s band (of the Strokes) and this is his first solo album and music video release. Drawn and animated by Reno himself, the video combines elements of modern psychedelia with child-like imagery reminiscent of classic 60′s and 70′s animation such as Schoolhouse Rock, Monty Python, Yellow Submarine and the drawings of Shel Silverstein.




Flip Side to Music’s Video Review of “Theres A Light” by Reno Bo

This video is amazing I think, I feel this kind of music is what the world needs right now it has a catchy uplifting beat and the animation is very heart/spirit lifting! Some what reminds me of the Beatles yet with a modern day twist! Look forward to more of this great entertainment!

Vampire Weekend @ Palace Theatre, Melbourne
When: Tuesday, 2010/05/04
Where: Palace Theatre – , Melbourne, VIC Australia

The Frontier Touring Company are pleased to announce that indie rockers Vampire Weekend will be performing a series of headline shows across Australia and New Zealand in April/May in addition to their Groovin’ The Moo performances.

The band initially made their mark on the music scene through their immense online success at a time when the term ‘internet sensation’ was relatively unheard of. After dominating online audiences, they released their hotly anticipated self-titled debut in 2008, cementing their arrival to indie rock. Their sharp, witty lyrics intermingled with African inspired beats guided them toward the forefront of the genre and the band quickly escalated to global fame.

After a top-secret fan club show in Sydney last year and a special Triple J performance, 2010 sees Vampire Weekend touring more extensively in support of their latest album Contra released just last month. The album has thus far been received positively by music lovers and critics alike. It debuted at 1 on the Billboard 200 chart and has been in the ARIA Top Ten Albums for the past three weeks.

“Where much of the first album’s charm was conceptual…here the band has put on some muscle. The drums are bigger, the guitars are faster, and the songs are outfitted with synth beats and hip-hop, reggae and electro accents.” – Rolling Stone

“It’s an exciting record Contra…it expands on the Vampire Weekend universe by introducing a heightened production noise, a wider palette of sounds and some almost crazy deviations into house, ’80s arena dance and new shades of melancholia…While still retaining everything that made them so attractive in the first place.” – The Vine

Tickets will no doubt be in high demand so get yours quick to avoid disappointment.

The Gipsy Kings are that rare thing – a household name famous solely for their music. Without peer, they are the planet’s most successful world music artists, and probably the best flamenco guitar artists in the world too! While they are the most successful French music group in history and they have sold more than 18 million albums worldwide, the Gipsy Kings make music as communion, artistry rooted in the past yet focused on the future.

The Gipsy Kings consist of two bands of brothers: the Reyes (Nicolas, Canut, Paul, Patchaï, André) and the Baliardos (Tonino, Paco, Diego). Initially, the Reyes and Baliardos busked on the streets of Cannes, and played weddings and parties, flavouring flamenco with Western pop and Latin rhythms.

When an American admirer told the band their name Los Reyes meant “The Kings” in English they realised they were born to be Gipsy Kings. In 1987 their selftitled debut album introduced the world to rumba gitano—the sound of South America’s rumba rhythm married to flamenco guitars—and the track “Bamboleo” was a huge international hit. Since then the Kings have never stopped singing to the world.

Today the Gipsy Kings still live with their families in the south of France. Life may have changed for them—they no longer busk on streets or pick crops when times are hard or travel in caravans – but still, at heart, they remain Gypsies, the proud descendants of an ancient people who seduced the world with music and dance. On their new album, Pasajero, the Gipsy Kings continue their epic musical journey. When the Gipsy Kings hit Byron Bay over Easter 2010, they are sure to set your soul on fire!

Heaven Is Where burst onto the Los Angeles music scene in mid 2008. Whether performing a powerful, full production band show or a dramatically touching acoustic/piano concert, this band is quickly growing their roots around the globe, gaining recognition and praise from industry, media and fans alike in both the mainstream and Christian markets.
With a texture of paint splattered musical influences all the way from Annie Lennox and Savage Garden to The Killers, Skillet, HIM, Muse and 30 Seconds To Mars, Heaven Is Where’s audience is quite diverse. Blending the trials of life into his songwriting, front man Matt Lande bleeds for the song and never takes for granted the impact a single line or musical movement can have on a person’s emotions. Partnering intimate, personal lyrics and passionate melodies along with guitar and keyboard driven music causes an interaction between happiness and sadness, love and hate, gain and loss…heaven and hell. The meaning behind the name of the band is simple. It’s about finding your own heaven…taking hold of the moments in life that invoke happiness and living in them. We want to get to heaven when its all said and done but what’s this life worth without finding your heaven on earth?

Just wanted to let you know my entire album “Two Steps Closer” is available on Itunes or through Cdbaby (autographed). It consists of 11 original songs.
Also I autograph all CDs.
Thanks,
Billy Redfield

BIO
It’s about time. On the heels of a self-released EP and a slew of national accolades, singer/songwriter Billy Redfield has just released his debut full lengther entitled “Two Steps Closer.” It’s a CD that builds on his reputation for breezy acoustic-based ballads and upbeat pop anthems delivered with equal parts earnesty AND urgency.

Working with an uber- talented studio team that includes producer Chris Keup (Jason Mraz, Josh Kelly) and engineer Stewart Myers (Rachel Yamagata, Lifehouse) “Two Steps” is an impressive effort for the 26 year old Maryland-native;especially considering he’s a relative newcomer to the art of songwriting. Full of tasteful guitar phrasings, shuffling beats and lilting Hammond B-3, Redfield’s musical reference points clearly extend beyond his birth date. “Guys like David Gray and Dave Matthews really changed my way of approaching writing songs,” Redfield admits.

Redfield recently received honorable mention in the prestigious International Songwriting Competition for his track “Die for You” no easy feat considering the sheer number of entries and a panel of judges that includes Frank Black, Tom Waits, and the Strokes’ Julian Casablancas. It’s recognition like this that the soft-spoken Redfield doesn’t take lightly. “It was pretty amazing [to win]. It was really validating.”

Redfield’s continued evolution as a young songwriter continues lyrically, where on pensive numbers like “Miss Melissa” he sings, “And I’m trying to melt the pain/But each day goes/And I’m nailed to the ghost/The weight of it all keeps my face long/I Miss Melissa.”

“I write from a personal point of view;it’s what I know best,” admits Redfield. And it’s clearly what his fans; who’ve cleverly dubbed themselves “redheads”relate to most. The coming months will look to see Redfield expand his flame-colored flocks and continue to hone his songwriting chops on the road in support of “Two Steps Closer.” A title, which based on his current round of career success, could prove prescient.

Shine
Album – Ungravity
Record Label – OK Records

Members – Joel Varela (Guitar/Vocals), Miguel Thomas (Guitar), Álex Rapitis (Bass), Iago Blanco (Drums)

A Coruna, or to give it it’s archaic title “The Groyne”, is the second largest city in Galicia; in the A Coruna Province of North West Spain. Deriving its name from the ancient Columna or “Tower Of Hercules”, it’s a busy port located on a promontory in the entrance of an estuary on a large gulf, and is known as a popular distribution point for agricultural goods from the region. Certainly not the kind of place that you’d expect to find such scintillating hard rock acts as Shine.

Formed back in 1995 by Guitarist and Vocalist Joel Varela, as a means of expressing his feelings and emotions of all depths and graces; Shine, completed by Miguel Thomas (Guitar), Álex Rapitis (Bass) and Iago Blanco (Drums) have spent the last 14 years slowly maturing and developing their sound in order to create the expansive, the crushing and the wondrous “Ungravity”.

Rife with heightening melodies, concussive rhythmical qualities and moments of sheer genius; “Ungravity” is a trend defying tour-de-force, that shares a deep musical kinship with such timely acts as Killing Joke, Radiohead and Joy Division. With tracks like the metal-tinged ‘Cycle’, the anguish-infused power of ‘Cool’ and the sheer Americana of ‘You And I’; a sombre acoustic number that relays an inbred honesty and accessibility, that remains both radio friendly and genuinely heartfelt. A notion that succinctly highlights Shine’s entire outlook and ethic.

It may have taken them nearly a decade and a half, but if history has proven anything; it is that truly great things are bred and created from tireless effort and personal struggle. With “Ungravity”, Shine have forged a sound that stands proudly next to the greats of our time. And with a bright future ahead, the young quartet from A Coruna are destined to do just as their name states.
