		<title>Marcy Playground &#8216;Indaba Remixes From Wonderland&#8217; To Be Released September 28 By Capitol/EMI</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Marcy Playground are excited to announce the September 28 release of their forthcoming album Indaba Remixes from Wonderland by Capitol/EMI. Indaba Remixes from Wonderland is a new CD and digital collection of remixes from the band&#8217;s 2009 critically-acclaimed album &#8220;Leaving Wonderland In a Fit of Rage.&#8221; For the release, the band partnered last fall with the top online destination for music creation, Indaba Music, to offer fans the opportunity to put their own stamp on Marcy Playground&#8217;s songs by remixing them. The band then selected their favorite mixes, from hundreds submitted, for inclusion on this special release. Marcy Playground frontman John Wozniak comments: &#8220;I wanted to make this record to show people what the online music community is capable of. I believe the talent reflected in these tracks speaks for itself. This community is thriving. It&#8217;s thriving because musicians feed on inspiration they get from other musicians. Music is not meant to be a solitary endeavour. It&#8217;s something we like to do with other people. But maybe you live in a remote part of the world, or have problems with mobility because you&#8217;re physically disabled, or have severe social anxiety, or simply can&#8217;t find other musicians in your locale who [...]]]></description>

		<title>Xavier Rudd and Izintaba at the TLA</title>
		<description><![CDATA[“Good Old War”’s harmonies hit the heart the set the mood for things to come. Lower lights feeling deep in the chest. Not the idea I had. Izintaba take the mood and bury it deep in soul of the music.  It’s there if you look for it, but not necessarily out in the foreground making you dance with a smile on your face. He delivers a deeper satisfaction that’s hard to explain.  Deep thinking brooding to the corners of your lips turning up into a smile. Here we go now. The upbeat mood that Koonyum Sun delivered nonstop on all cylinders. Bigger smile into the chant leads too smooth sailing in old familiar waters with a crew of new old friends. It’s really quite amazing hearing how much different a familiar song can sound with a band behind Xavier. It’s not worse in any way.  I’m still not sure if it’s better than how he did them; there is a whole different energy to them that you can hear and feel.  Taking a dive headfirst, feels amazing to enter; the body is refreshed.  New energy crashing into and growing in me&#8230; Holy Yudeki!! When they get going on their new [...]]]></description>

		<title>Backseat Bordello&#8217;s  End Times Diner  A Folk / Pop Hit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I received my copy today and I can t get enough of it! Backstreet Bordello is another fantastic work by the talents of [Pope Jane s] Danielle Egnew and Kristen Coyner. I always thought of Kristen as the chick drummer to watch, but who knew she was also such an awesome rhythm guitarist? Dashboard Mary  gets right into the groove with beautiful acoustic guitar work and vocals by the amazing pixie-esque voice of Danielle and the spot on lead vocals of Kristen.  Drag Me  gets a little more serious, but that s the nature of the Pope Jane stars if you ve followed their career as I have.  Undone  then completely sucks you in for the rest of the Backstreet Bordello ride. I don t know if I d call it an End-Times-Diner as I ve always thought of these women like a fine wine, but End-Times-High-End-Restaurant doesn t exactly flow, now does it? Morningside Lane  is another example of the brilliant writing skills and vocal extravaganzas of this talented pair.  Miraculous  has that Led Zeppelin  Battle of Evermore  feel to it, but with a whole new twist on current reality. The cutting edge wit, both sarcastic and playful, really [...]]]></description>

The album is his first recording with South African rhythm section comprised of Tio Moloantoa on Bass and Andile Nqubezelo, formerly of the late Lucky Dube’s band.  Rudd, known for his must-be-seen-to-be-believed live show—where he often performs as a one-man band—will give North American audiences a chance to experience the new lineup live beginning August 13th.  Xavier and Izintaba will join dueling guitarists Rodrigo y Gabriela for six dates in August. Xavier, Tio and Andile formed a bond in the summer of 2008 at Austria’s Nuke festival.  Their relationship—like their musical tastes—reflects a passion for unifying culture, sound and understanding. Moving away from the heavier-edged sound pursued on 2008’s Dark Shades of Blue, Xavier has shifted to an up-beat, hip-swaying sound, now backed by the tour de force of Tio and Andile under the new group “Xavier Rudd and Izintaba.” Charleston City Paper experienced a preview of the new lineup this past summer, raving “With a powerful presence center stage, bassist Tio Molontoa cranked out some funky bass with a background of the aboriginal flag, while drummer Andile Nqubezelo, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From the very first single that Qness released, to his very first live set, he brought out the proverbial &#8216;right place and right time&#8217; saying of being a critically acclaimed DJ and Musical Producer. His debut single titled &#8216;Fugama Unamathe&#8217; which was featured on legendary DJ Mbuso&#8217;s Phezulu Selections Volume Two album earmarked him as not just a producer, but a true musician and DJ who understands what to bring out in a song and in a set to actually rock a crowd. Hailing from the dance-cultured streets of Johannesburg in South Africa with just his &#8216;music&#8217;, his &#8216;mind&#8217; and &#8216;God-given talent&#8217;, Qness first entered the musical scene as an R &#8216;n&#8217; B singer in a boy band at school, before he moved on to do hip hop in upper grade with some high school friends, where he was also the producer for the band, until he finally got catapulted into dance music when he first heard the Oskido&#8217;s Church Grooves First Commandment. This release features remixes from Africa&#8217;s finest producers such as: Mzee, Culoe de Song, Aero Manyelo, Marie Joly &#38; the new comer Koro. Tweet This Post]]></description>

		<title>The Rah Band &#8211; Messages From The Stars (At Jazz Remixes)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The RAH Band was formed by Richard Anthony Hewson in 1977 and their first hit was the chart smash “The Crunch”. This went top ten in UK and Europe.The RAH Band went on to have jazz funk club hits such as &#8216;Falcon&#8217; and Slide&#8217;. But for the more disco &#38; jazzfunk minded fans there was also a plethora of deeper joints oozing from The RAH Band studio back in the day, one of which was the untamable &#8216;Messages From The Stars&#8217; a freaky &#38; quirky old school jazzfunk number with a sweet sugary spaced-out vocal. Messages From The Stars is such a favorite stitch in time for Martin &#8216;Atjazz&#8217; that he could not help but contact the man behind this adorable song to see if any further versions could be reworked in order to keep the stars burning and the answer was a big YES!. Richard started digging through his tapes and found the vocal files, he sent them over and after a number of remixing sessions we are now proud to bring you &#8216;Messages From The Stars (Atjazz Remixes)&#8217; and we hope you love them as much as we do. Long live &#8216;The RAH Band&#8217;. Richard Anthony Hewson not [...]]]></description>
