Next up is a video from Randy Ichinose, a 22 years old Italian musician. The video is from his new tune, “C’Est La Dose Qui Fait Le Poison.” The tune is on the softer side, but has some killer guitar work on it. What I’m digging about it is the vibe, it just flows from […]

Listen: Sam Thomas – Gift
Awesome. That is the best word that come to mind when I heard Sam Thomas‘ new single, “Gift.” What amazed me about this guy was his sound, there really is no way to describe it. It’s very compositional, but what I really dig is how the sound morphs into different genres, but, yet it all […]

The ROAR (@iamtheroar) – Smells Like Teen Cinema
Our boy TheROAR has singlehandedly brought “sMashup” into BoomBoomChik’s lexicon and he’s been going hard with them since last summer. This latest installment brings two FAVES – Nirvana and SKRILLEX – into one. Best thing about TheROAR’s sMashups – he rearranges, re-records, performs and sings the songs in a studio. Not your average person just […]

Stephanie Morillo (@radiomorillo) – Bixo (Manu Chao cover)
Shameless self-promotion – here’s my latest cover of Manu Chao‘s epic song “Bixo”. The video was recorded on my six mile long walk from my job in Manhattan to my apartment in Queens. Manu seemed a fitting soundtrack to that. Enjoy!

Joy (@joyforthepeople) – The Storm Mixtape
A brand new mixtape from Boston-bases singer-songwriter Joy was certainly not what I was expecting on a dreary Tuesday afternoon in New York City. This time last year, Joy released her follow up release, Electric Soul Music. It was not the follow up to 2006’s fresh and unapologetically catchy debut, Set Free, that I was […]
Señor Loop (@senorloop) – Insensato
Just three days into my trip to Panama, my Panamanian friends have introduced me to a well-respected local band called Señor Loop.
