AUDIO: Astari Nite’s “The Girl Who Tried”

“Astari Nite channels an obscure beauty in the crossfire between new-wave and post-punk” is what the press releases says but do want to believe it?

AUDIO: Stag’s “Midtown Sizzler”

When was the last time you’ve been to a Sizzler restaurant? When was the last time you visited the midtown Sizzler? Do you even have a Sizzler near you, or even a midtown?

AUDIO: Eternia’s “Broken Language (Remix)”

The ever-impressive Eternia went back to the 1990’s to revive an incredible classic to remind people how nice hip-hop used to be. It’s an update/upgrade to “Broken Language” and it makes me wish all of hip-hop in 2017 was this as intense as this song.

The song is a hint of the forthcoming album due out on May 30th called Rapsploitation (No Cure/IDC).

Do not call this a comeback, for Adam Reverie has been here for years but he has a new track for you and he wants to share it with you. This one was produced by Clyde Strokes and it’s about having a “Passion” for it that can’t be denied. Now listen to this and don’t deny its power.

AUDIO: James Gardin & Terem’s “GO!”

This is not just a mere collaboration, this is an adventure and what an adventure this is. From Michigan is James Gardin, who worked with French producer Terem to do a song called “GO!”, which may have been done with a winter mentality but with hope that better things are ahead. More music from them will be on its way.
