Music Is... "Dreaming Awake" Presented By: The LupE.N.D. Blog

There was no way I could overlook this project right here, not in the least. Ya boy SeanTheROBOT was one of the, if not the main mediator in coordinating and initiating this mixtape. It's a culmination of various artists, some of which you may know and some you may not. Personally I'm not familiar with them all but, just being able to hear new voices is refreshing. I've been anticipating it for a while now, so...

With no further adieu...

Premier - Music Is... "Thank You" Estelle

The song is written by Akon and produced by Jerry Wonder. Usually, I don't think I'm a good singer of other people's songs. This HAD to be something I was feeling. If I was going to do a song written by someone else, I wanted it to be done right. I wanted it to be something I felt through my heart, through my body, through my mind. When the words came in for this song, I was just.....By the time I got to the chorus of this song, I was damn near crying. It just resonated just SO much with me. I play it for my guy friends and THEY even start crying. It's just that kind of song. I'm honored to be able to bring it to you. 'Til next time #mydarlings! xoxox

Music Is... Ebrahim "In My Heart I Am: Zebrahim"

Ya boy Sean The Robot introduced me to this talented man, via his tumblr Head Cut Off. He is incredible. No special production or anything here. Just really, REALLY good singing and beat-boxing.

initially i was going to give this album away for free, but since some of my loved ones decided to selflessly devote themselves to the Ride To Conquer Cancer, i figured the least i could do was dedicate this little project to them. 100% of the money raised from this project will go towards this cause..music by ebrahim and häzel artwork by corbin portillo and lou papa

Music Is... TV On The Radio "Caffeinated Consciousness"

Anytime I visit Polydor they never cease to amaze me with talented artist

A bit from their bio:

This TV On The Radio album, "NineTypes of Light" (Interscope), is a lush and beautiful album that stands apart from the group's previous work. If their other albums had shades of dystopia and distress, this album, sung by Tunde Adebimpe and Kyp Malone, is filled with songs about longing and love."I like love songs. There's nothing particularly interesting going on withme in my life to bear this work. I like the forms of love songs, the poetry." Kyp adds that though there might be more "positivity"on this album, it wasn't an overall conceit they set out to do. "We've attempted to work on themes before but they fall apart very quickly. More organic versions arise because we're sharing time or space or communication." 

It's been a while since I've visited and I find this to be a very interesting video. This is a track off of their forth album titled "Nine Types Of Light"

Music Is... dela: Transition Lost

This consists of some interesting sounds and arrangements. Very jazzy and laid back is the mood of every track. Again, this is due to my "rummaging" if you will, around bandcamp.com. If you haven't already, I suggest you visit this site when you get the chance. If I'm right, the majority of the content it holds is from independent labels and artists. It's definitely worth it in my book.

Music Is... Das Racist "Who's That? Brooown!"

I found these guys roaming around bancamp.com a few weeks ago. Check it out.

Music Is... K.O. Beatz "Odyssey"

This is another ill instrumental from K.O. I wouldn't say this sound strays far from his style but, it's something different than what I'm used to. I like a mix up though, keeps things fresh =)
