New Planets Discovered

In case you have not been around recently, bands and labels have begun posting their music on websites for people to download and check out. Here are some of the gems that I have recently discovered:

1. Tilly & The Wall - It's Peter, Paul & Mary with electric guitars. A little country, a little rock & roll, a lot of fun.
2. Eric Mingus - "Shake Up The World" - If you combine the poetry of Lou Reed and Gil Scott-Heron with a Vernon Reid/Living Colour vibe, you have Eric Mingus. Mingus' bio alone is a tremendous read and his music is equally as powerful.
3. Eenie Meenie Records - This is a small California-based record label that offers captivating sounds. For example, try DJ Me, DJ You. The duo of Ross Harris and Craig Borrell creates sounds that will have you searching for your 70's outfits. Check out "Fresh Technology," which you can download off the Eenie Meenie website. While there, listen to High Water Marks. This group brings an incredible resume to the table. Their sound backs it up. Finally, go grab yourself a copy of the new Ulysses CD. Pre-release purchase gets you an autographed silk screen poster, and an exclusive CD featuring a Robert Schneider EPK and his live performances from Sea Level Records.
