C.O.S. or Code Of The Streets or just Cos, any of the above will do. All you need to know is that he’s fresh off the scene in Brooklyn and has got flows for days. And you will be able to tell after hearing just the intro to ‘We Don’t No More’ that you’ve found another winner. For starters, it’s got great thick instrumentation in the production. Professional polish from the studio sets up the stage for him to display his lyrical skills. Read the rest of this entry »

Wrong side, off of Dan Israel & The Cultivators 1999 release Mama’s Kitchen, is country folk rock in the vein of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. It’s a really good song to sing along to with your friends loudly and make general nuisances out of yourselves. Read the rest of this entry »

‘Fall Apart’ is one of those songs that just kept me on my ‘listening’ toes throughout the whole track. The song opens with a rough, muffled beat that seems as though it is going to be the basis for the whole thing. Uh uh. A moment later the true rhythm and melody of the song kick in with a driving beat that can only be described as ‘head-nodding’ (Yeah. I’m a hip-hop fiend. And what?) Read the rest of this entry »

60 Cycle Hum is a four piece modern rock outfit who have a knack for capturing the melodic side of metal. 20 Pieces, an exemplary piece of alt. metal, is the track that we picked here to feature on GT and for good reason. It has all of the features that make a great metal song. Bludgeoning guitars, tight rhythm section, and most of all, the ever-elusive hook. This track will keep you humming for days.
The track has some Alice In Chains influence like much of modern rock, but they stamp their own identity on it. The singer at times also sounds a little like Scott Benzel of Machines Of Loving Grace.

So download 20 Pieces and get a taste of rock at it’s finest.

[EDIT: This band has since changed their name and they are now called Stereoside.]

‘Big Bwoyz’ is the first track to grace our  Hip-Hop section. It’s the lead-off single from ATL’s Marc Decoca. Marc’s style is definitely representative of the ‘Dirty South’ sound, but he still manages to keep it sounding fresh.
The track is about rolling around in a luxury ride, while everyone stops to look. And the groove from this track says it was made to be the soundtrack that’s hanging out the windows. Read the rest of this entry »

‘Come Fly With Me’ is a club track designed to be at home on both the dance floor and the radio. It has all the elements to move the floor, but also has a great vocal melody and enough variations to make sure that it never gets too monotonous.
Hailing from Sweden, Nina’s style is best described as synthpop. Her sound is thick with lots of things to discover with each new listen.

Seeming to sidestep many of the pitfalls of electronic music, ‘Come Fly With Me’ merges all the various sonic components into three and a half minutes of pure electronic pop pleasure.

‘Jungle’ has been around for awhile according Michiel Van Erp who is from The Netherlands. It’s one of his older tracks, but it is such an amazing track that we had to post it. Nice combination of ambient electronica with elements of lounge and jazz. Read the rest of this entry »
